2020 was an eventful year in the motoring world, for starters Jeep announced the Jeep Gladiator Launch Edition. 4,190 units of this special edition were sold out within a day. Tracking back with a brief history lesson, Jeep was first introduced in 1943 by Willys MB, which was used during the second world war and thereafter. Jeeps were known for their ease of use and their rugged capabilities. Down the line, the Jeep marque exchanged various hands until it landed in Chrysler's hands in 1987, and now with Stellantis. Why not own one of those 4,190 units made, with this 2020 Jeep Gladiator Launch Edition that comes with some very tasty upgrades, and just 14,000 miles on the clock.
The 2020 Jeep Gladiator Launch Edition is based on a fully-loaded Jeep Rubicon with some exclusive additions. The Launch Edition was offered in five exterior color palettes, ours is a Black clear coat example. The hardtop is a 3-piece affair and done in body color. An exclusive forged-aluminum tailgate badge is in place. Standard lighting is provided by LED head and tail lights. A front-facing trail cam is on board. Now onto the tasty upgrades, the front bumper has been replaced with an Addictive Desert Designs JT Stealth Fighter bumper with a Warn Zeon Platinum winch controlled wirelessly along with a Factor 55 link, rock lights and Monster hookups are upfront. The rear features a Jeep JT rear bumper. The rear JT Rear Fender System and JT Light Fender System are customs painted to the body color. The bed is host to a Deck’D drawer system, a Road Armor bed rack system, and a Rhino-Rack Pioneer system installed on top of the bed rack. An Evo Mfg aluminum half cab roof rack is also installed. Amp Research XL power running boards with rock rails have been installed. Custom lighting is courtesy of Vision X lighting, 4x4 Switch Pod Bantham with a digital LCD controller in the cab, a weatherproof switch panel in the bed, and LED cargo area lighting.
This 2020 Jeep Gladiator Launch Edition is a testament that it needs no under the hood upgrades. The 3.6L Pentastar V6 is ample enough to tackle any terrain in any weather condition while mated to the sturdy and smooth 8-speed ZF automatic transmission. The powerplant is rated at 285hp of power and 260 lb.ft of torque. Acceleration is decent at 7.2 seconds in the 0-60 mph, and the Gladiator can tow up to 7,650 lbs. The seller has installed Black Rhino wheels encased in 40” Cooper STT Pro tires, with a matching spare.

The Jeep Gladiator is a pickup truck based on Jeep’s popular Wrangler off-roader. Thanks to being heavily based on the Wrangler, this midsize pickup truck looks much the same as its sibling from the front three quarters, comes with the same powertrain choices, and the same off-road hardware too. But it swaps the rear cargo compartment for a five-foot truck bed. That’s all well and good for most, but what if you want a Wrangler with some serious capabilities in case, you know, the world ends as we know it? That’s where a build like this 2023 Jeep Gladiator Apocalypse Hellfire 6x6 enters the scene. Built by SoFlo Customs, this mean machine is up for grabs in Utah with just 1,710 miles. It’s got a 3.0-liter turbodiesel, a custom leather interior and more. Oh, and it’s a true 6x6, meaning all six wheels are powered!
Jeep’s Gladiator offers all those fun features of the Wrangler such as the removable doors and roof in a midsize pickup truck package. Yes, for those who need a Jeep with a cargo bed, this American off-roader maker has got you covered. The current generation of Gladiator is the JT which was sold from 2020 onwards, based on the Wrangler JL which preceded it by one model year. Today’s Gladiator is no regular one, though. It’s a 2022 Jeep Gladiator Hellcat Powered AMW 707 with the AMW 707 Hellcat conversion package. That includes a monster 6.2-liter HEMI with a supercharger tacked on, while you and your passengers luxuriously lounge upon a premium Tuscany leather interior. All this awaits you in Scappoose, Oregon with just 22,500 miles done so far. Tempted? Give in and call us.
The Jeep Gladiator is a pickup truck that’s heavily based on Jeep’s famous Wrangler off-roader. This means that the Gladiator is probably the only pickup truck available today with removable doors and a pop-off roof. Introduced in 2020, it’s a midsize truck that can carry between 1,000 and 1,700 pounds depending on trim. It’s also got the same off-road hardware and software as the Wrangler, which means its nearly as capable in the rough stuff. Today, we have a 2020 Jeep Gladiator Sport for sale from Milan, Ohio, with some significant upgrades. The things added to this 48,833-mile machine include a full body Armor coating, a heavy-duty lift kit, a custom leather interior and many more goodies.
Jeep’s CJ series of off-roaders is what gave rise to the Wrangler today. You can see the design similarities between the old and the new, despite the Wrangler’s notably larger size, plusher cabin, more powerful engine, etc. That iconic face remains largely intact, with the famous seven-bar grille signifying that the vehicle wearing it is capable of great off-road feats. The CJ series came about in 1944, when Willys-Overland knew that they had to switch to the civilian market to survive. World War II was ending, and the military wouldn’t be needing Jeeps like cigarettes anymore. So, the CJ was born, standing for Civilian Jeep. It was made to live a tough life in the fields of agriculture, construction, mining, manufacturing and other rough-and-tumble industries. Jeep knew that the civilian variant would have a lifespan in years or even decades, not months or weeks like its battleship brethren. Hence, the CJ is exceptionally well-built, and many survive to this day. This 1978 Jeep CJ-5 from Melbourne, Florida is proof of that quality.
The 2018 Wrangler Unlimited is the modern, four-door take on Jeep’s classic off-road icon, known for its removable doors and roof, body-on-frame toughness and huge aftermarket support. This one is built with a clear purpose: it keeps the dependable 3.6L Pentastar V6 and 8-speed automatic for easy daily driving, then adds major off-road-ready upgrades like a 3.75” lift, 37” Nitto tires and Fuel wheels to dramatically increase stance and trail capability. With Customer Preferred Package 24S, a Freedom Top hard top and added tech like a Stinger 13” touchscreen, it’s set up to look the part and be comfortable enough for regular use, not just weekend trails.
The Civilian Jeep, or Willys Jeep CJ is what eventually became the Wrangler that we know and love to this day. Conceived in 1948 as a civilian variant to the popular military Jeep, the CJ ran until 1986. The CJ-7 variant was one of the latest at the time, made between 1976 and 1986. That’s what we have here today, a 1985 Jeep CJ-7 for sale from Burnsville, Minnesota. This Jeep packs around 91,747 miles on the clock and has received a 327ci V8 engine upgrade, with a Holley 4-barrel carburetor. It’s also got the Heavy-Duty Suspension Package, making it fantastic for someone who is seeking a fun but tough and capable off-road machine for weekend forays into the wilderness.
