So.....I have been on many, many forums, auto, motorcycle, sleds,
but I have never seen a forum with so much info and comments as this one.
FOR A VEHICLE that's not even for sale.
Wow, is there a lot of anticipation for the JT.
I am going out on a limb, and saying, they are going to sell out, be hard to come by, and
have a waiting list for buyers. Maybe.
It's been a long wait for the JT, and enthusists are chomping on the bit to get one,
maybe even 2.
The owner of the local Jeep dealer, told me he hasn't seen this much interest in a new
model in a long, long time. He is as excited as anyone, because he knows they are going
to sell, lots.

Product won’t “sell out” but delivery will be delayed as parts will need to be replenished more and more.

Hey @Trickster , is that Truck in your avatar Plywood Rated? What is it, one of those motorcycle engine trucks you can swap a Busa motor into?

There is a thread about who is going to order right off the rip. Some are waiting on late color paint. Others on diesel. This should help a lot with the initial stock.

I don't see the 2020 Gladiator turning into a 2015 hellcat situation.

Please don't do that . . . don't go out on a limb . . . there really is just a handful of us posting like crazy frenzied fanatics !
but we do apparently have much in the way of ANTICIPATION with a smidgen of "commentary" + a tiny dash of speculative-fact (whatever that is ? . Go Canada, eh? ps; i'd add both our nations flags, but apparently we can't even afford our own here . . . even though it's on the JL side -- go figure ! ? :( ;)

I will be one waiting on the diesel as well as the Gator paint. I'll get mine in 2026.

Hi . . . looking forward to the "flood," as long as it's just people wanting a JT and not the "other kind".
Constructive . . . not destructive.
May I ask an uneducated mans question? Oh good thanks. I don't know who your "image" is of and it's driving me nuts, can you enlighten, and if you wish to also how you come to choose it ? Mine is self explanatory - it's me.

I want a Gator with that rumored straight 6 Turbo, like 2.7L
I thought the rumored i6 turbo was going to be a 3.0l? 2.95l to be exact (for European tax reasons). At least that is what I heard.

Was there a speculative Date on that rumor ? If I am guessing - I am - I'd say that since it will be a new engine; 5 years from now for the 1st "Refresh" ! ? You'll have plenty of time to save up and get what you really want by then . . . unless you change your mind . . . by then you may want a "Taco" ?
