Replying to: navigator89 (Aug 21, 2006 10:31 pm) tell you what, I was ready to buy this truck wether it costs twenty or hundred thousand, not that I'm a milioner, just would sell something or get an extra job to pay for it... Well... in that case, there is no sense to live anymore. good bay may friends ;-(((((((
#234 of 252 Man this is disgusting by migz Aug 23, 2006 (11:01 am)
I hope that this is one of those reverse psychology things where they say, " Oh now we are not going to build it." and then see it come out in a year or 2. Man it pisses me off I been holding out on buying a truck hoping to see if this one comes out. Hay maybe is we start a letter writing campaign to DCC telling how stupid they are buys passing on this truck maybe we can change their mind.

I wouldn't brush up against one in a parking lot for fear of getting that junk on me!        Hey DCX, your the best sale staff your competition could ask for! I'll take the Frontier in red. Thanks for making that decision easier.

I have been the owner of Jeep vehicles since I started driving my first car, and I have been waiting for the Gladiator.   With the comments I have seen floating around the press, DC will be sure not to see a penny of my money. I have been looking at upgrading from my 83 cj-7 as I would like to use that as more of a 4x4 play vehicle... Guess its time to start looking at Toyota or Chevy.
#237 of 252 Jeep Loyalty by brdhntr01 Aug 29, 2006 (6:04 pm)
My immediate family and myself own 5 Jeep vehicles. I am on my 3rd personal Jeep. Based upon the Jeep/DC current position in regard to the Gladiator, this is my last. My current Wrangler Rubicon no longer meets my needs. I had been holding off on a truck purchase but will not be waiting any longer. After attending the Jamboree that I have scheduled this fall the Wrangler is up for sale and a trip to buy a truck is in order. My visit will not be to Dodge dealer; most likely a Toyota or a Ford is in my future. Good bye Jeep. Replies to this message: stlhooked (Aug 29, 2006 9:32 pm)

Replying to: brdhntr01 (Aug 29, 2006 6:04 pm) Yea this news really sucks. I am currently doing a conversion. (I'm putting a VW 1.6 diesel engine into a 86 Samurai), the diesel's economy is really attractive. There aren't any economic trucks out there right now. A small truck with pulling power and economy would be sweet. I guess DC is sleeping with the Oil people.

Love the Gladiator. Hope DC builds it. They built the prowler.I would buy if they build it. But please build it in this country. Will buy new tundra soon if DC waffles on this one (Gladiator) that is. A current owner, I hope your listening DC. Replies to this message: odie6l (Oct 16, 2006 1:10 pm)

Replying to: unityroad (Oct 15, 2006 6:17 pm) yeah, they built the prowler and it had NO power and was overly expensive. If DCX had originally put a v6 with a turbo, or shoehorned a small v8 into it, it would have done better. But then that leaves the price, they started the prowler at $40k, and then Ford turned around and did the same thing with the T-bird, but at least it had the power under the hood, just was WAY too expensive. If both cars had been started about $22-$24k they would have flown (err- driven) off the lots. But what do I know I'm only a little Peaon that would like to spend my money, just not that much money. So you know even if DCX had decided to build the Gladiator, they would have more than likely started it closer to $40k, or they would have rebadged it to look like a Dodge and called it the Power Wagon.   Odie Odie's Carspace

Replying to: navigator89 (Aug 21, 2006 10:31 pm) Sorry to say it but I told you guys there was no way this butt ugly truck was going to be built. There just isn't any need for it. DC already has more than enough truck models and in this age of rising fuel costs it just doesn't make any sense.
#242 of 252 Sooo...yes or no?? by bigskyguy12000 Feb 22, 2007 (4:17 pm)
so nobody...I mean nobody from dealers to people at diamler and yes, folk in this forum don't seem to have a FOR SURE answer. Will they or wont they? Seems the overall feeling in no, the gladiator wont be built. I shake my head in disapointment of diamler. Go ahead, sell the company see if I care. you guys are a disapointment.
