hi there this is Dave from motals or
0:02
moteles Dave and I'm here to talk about
0:05
the latest Jeep Wagoner and by latest I
0:08
do mean the 2025 model and Jeep has done
0:12
a price repositioning which is to say
0:15
that they've realized that they can't
0:16
keep selling them for the outrageously
0:18
overinflated prices they had due to the
0:21
covid shortages so now Gladiators have
0:24
dropped to the point where even with
0:25
destination charge you can get one for
0:27
under
0:28
$40,000 I know $440,000 is a lot of
0:31
money but that is less than they were
0:34
selling for before and now you get a
0:36
standard automatic transmission which is
0:39
great if you like automatic
0:40
transmissions but it does mean that the
0:44
uh manual transmission is gone along
0:46
with rollup Windows because power
0:48
windows are now standard along with
0:50
power locks you got a new 41 color
0:53
that's apostrophe 41 meant to be short
0:56
for 1941 which was inspired by ol of
1:00
drab which is the original army jeep
1:02
thing uh Jeep calls the Gladiator the
1:05
only open air pickup with the V6 it has
1:08
best-in-class for V6 uh Towing and and
1:14
uh payload which is pretty darn good
1:16
they do tow quite a lot it's really kind
1:18
of impressive let's see so the sport
1:20
technically starts at $ 38,1 then you've
1:22
got the $1900 insanely High destination
1:26
charge which I might add is higher than
1:28
that used by Toyota Honda or
1:31
Mazda who ship some of their cars in
1:34
from Japan which is a little further
1:35
away than where they make Gladiators
1:38
which is Toledo Ohio right in the middle
1:40
of the
1:43
country what else do you get you get
1:45
fathom blue and you get the active
1:47
ventilation that's an option and it lets
1:50
you use your phone to cool down your
1:52
Jeep uh Gladiator or Wrangler
1:55
remotely uh with outside air presumably
1:58
that uses a fan May it cracks the
2:00
windows open slightly they weren't very
2:02
uh clear on how it works I'm guessing it
2:05
just turns the fan on you activate it
2:07
with your phone and probably if you
2:08
don't go there uh in like 10 minutes it
2:11
shuts it back off again so you don't
2:12
train your battery I don't know and all
2:14
Gladiators are 4x4s with four-wheel
2:17
drive because that's what they are they
2:20
are the premier off-road pickups in that
2:23
class uh and of course the Power Wagon
2:26
is the Premier off-road pickup in the
2:28
really big class and if you want to be
2:31
really really comfortable when going
2:33
over amazing obstacles with no effort at
2:35
all the Power Wagon is there for you and
2:38
the rebel too which is in between the
2:40
two so that's the story the good news is
2:42
price down the bad news is manual
2:45
transmission gone uh no updates to the
2:48
4xe that have been announced and the uh
2:53
R roll up Windows if you like that
2:55
reminder of Olden time Jeeps are gone
2:58
but you still have the thumb press door
3:01
latches coming to you from the 70s and
3:03
earlier so there's that that's me
3:06
