    Call me Crazy.... Gladiator Rubicon

    Yea for the most part. The Chesapeake does a good job of insulating us from most of the winter weather. Summers can get pretty muggy though, especially July/August. It hovers consistently between 85-100 with nearly 100% humidity or so it feels. Luckily we are only about 15-20 minutes from...

    Southern Delaware Here, fairly moderate climate. We get very little snow, but it certainly gets muggy during the summer.

    Cooper 4s 275-60-20 on stock 20’s and 2” level

    Looks good, I'm getting 275/60/20 this week as well to replace my OEM tires. I was able to squeak out 31k on the duelers so I can't really complain. I went w/ Goodyear Ultraterrain's I will give a full review once done this week.

    Best Tires

    I just placed an order for some 275/60/20 Goodyear Ultra Terrain. The reviews are excellent and they are reasonably priced. Should have them this week and I'll give a full review.

    Yes the Pano would be on my list of must have's for a future Rebel purchase. :)

    Call me Crazy.... Gladiator Rubicon

    Welp, as promised I went and test drove the Gladiator Rubicon and the Ram Rebel this morning w/ my son. We drove the rebel first and it immediately felt very familiar coming from my Laramie Sport. It was a crew cab, Level 2, 12" uconnect. Not my color choice per se in Black but still nice. I do...

    Call me Crazy.... Gladiator Rubicon

    All excellent points, and I appreciate everyone's insight & feedback. There are a myriad of opinions out there and the answer is very individualized based on need, want, budget. I love my Ram, it's been great, truth be told I probably would have never thought about a Gladiator had I not been at...

    Falcon - Teraflex Kit out

    I don't have them. But they are 99% my wheel choice when I do upgrade.

    Call me Crazy.... Gladiator Rubicon

    I couldn't agree more. The more I read and lurked on the gladiator forum the more I learned & appreciated the over engineering that went into the development of the Gladiator. As far as utility is concerned, I think it will more than suit my needs in regards to payload/towing. My only true...

    Call me Crazy.... Gladiator Rubicon

    Very True, but I figure the TRX will be in Raptor territory in regards to costs, with base trims starting in the mid $60's and ranging out probably mid to high $70's and that's without dealer MSRP + markups.

    Call me Crazy.... Gladiator Rubicon

    I think for me in regards to the Grille, the whole truck looks so refined, so well put together, and then the plastic nostril on the rebel, IDK. Just looks very different then the rest of the truck. Like they were trying too hard to make it look the part of being their off-road variant.

    Call me Crazy.... Gladiator Rubicon

    WXman, I guess there in lies my point. I know it's not a 1/2 ton, but I think in most regards in could be a fair comparison. The Gladiators size or lack thereof yields nimbleness, on road & off. From Parking, to camping trails I think its honestly a perfect size, I just wish it was a "smidge"...

    Call me Crazy.... Gladiator Rubicon

    I like the Rebel, I really do and its proven its worth off-road prowess on this forum and well documented on youtube. The only real gripe I have is the Grille. I really love the front end of my Laramie Sport. Maybe it will grow on me, IDK. Good thing is if I go the Rebel route, it appears to be...

    Call me Crazy.... Gladiator Rubicon

    All very valid points and appreciated insight. Thanks for talking me off the proverbial cliff. Maybe keep the ram for a bit and if the right rebel comes along do something along those lines to have the best of both worlds.

    Call me Crazy.... Gladiator Rubicon

    Perhaps a rebel would be an idea, little more off road prowess but still get to keep the comfort/size.

    Call me Crazy.... Gladiator Rubicon

    @ 6'8, I doubt there are many vehicles that fit comfortably. :) I thought I was tall @ 6'1, lol. I sat in the Gladiator, the seats are comfortable, but the leg area and center console are def. tighter. I drive the vehicle myself to/from work during the week, and typically we use the wife's comfy...

    Call me Crazy.... Gladiator Rubicon

    So the Ram has been great. But I have been looking to upgrade for functional off road capabilities as my Laramie Sport is non ORP. Basically was looking to add the mopar lift, ORP springs, wheels/tires, etc. Roughly $5k total, but while there I saw the JT Rubicon and was like is that the smarter...

    Call me Crazy.... Gladiator Rubicon

    After 2 years with the Ram, and a few trips to the dealership trying to figure out if I wanted to go ahead and lift the ram, mopar, orp, wheels/tires a white Gladiator Rubicon caught my eye. It's fully loaded, Saddle leather, 8.4 uconnect, Led's, alpine, etc. Man is that thing nice. A smidge...

    Baja Designs 2019+ Ram HD Squadron Conversion Package

    is that the same kit? will non rebel be the same? I recently order the Lamin-X film for a rebel because the lense looked very similar and figured for $20 why not try it out, unfortunately the film was about 1/2"-3/4" long on each side. :(
