So my 2020 unlimited rubicon got struck by lightning and looks like it is being totaled. I have the option of replacing with same new 2022, but my local dealer also has a Mojave gladiator on the lot as well. I'm torn and curious on everyone's thoughts? This is my secondary vehicle/main to my G80 M3. I will say that I used to think the gladiators were ugly, but growing on me. Both are same color.

If you are going to use it as an off road vehicle only, I would say go for it. Otherwise, I would skip it. It is not a great driving vehicle on the road. When it first came out, it sold like hotcakes but once that initial push was finished, it has come back to earth.

But even offroad, the regular Jeep would do better.

No way. Hit by lightning? Gnarly!

I think the gladiator looks better than the jeep when lifted. If keeping it stock, I would get the jeep.

Yep, that and destroyed a lot of other things in and around my house. Was pretty damn brutal.

Spot on and my thoughts on the gladiator though. It would have to be lifted to look good. My rubicon was stock.
