    Just For Fun Jeep Gladiator and Old School F100 Comparison

    The dealership gave me this loaner Gladiator while they replace my 2019 JLRU's hard top and steering box. Of course this is not a modern vs modern comparison but it might be interesting to some. Wheel bases look pretty close and overall lengths are as well. My old 1976 F100 has waaaaay more...

    Wave from North Carolina

    Hello to all Jeep fans! Not new to Jeeps here since I've owned two JK's before grabbing up my 2019 Mojito! JLRU last year. Not many upgrades yet. Front bumper and winch is basically all I've done so far. Looking forward to making more changes to give it more character.
