If you like feeling the sun on your skin and the breeze in your hair as you enjoy some thrilling off-road driving, you can’t go wrong with the 2023 edition of the Jeep Gladiator. Not only is the 2023 Gladiator the world’s first open-air pickup truck, but it also has the full legendary off-road capabilities of a Trail-Rated Jeep vehicle. Here’s a run-down of some of the best features in this attractive, tech-savvy, rough-and-ready pickup.

Military-Themed Special Edition

Everything about the 2023 Gladiator’s exterior appeal, from the tough 33-inch tires to the bold grill design to the sturdy adaptable cabin frame and distinctive doors, exudes a rugged, all-American, can-do attitude. In 2023, you can take your Gladiator’s adventurous appearance to the next level with the Freedom trim, crafted as a nod of respect to the military, which includes an elegant American flag decal and Oscar Mike bodywork badge. 

Open-Air Exterior Options

If you can’t get enough of the sense of freedom that driving an open-air vehicle gives you, then select door and roof options that allow you to throw it all back and turn your Gladiator into the industry’s first convertible pickup. You can choose from a variety of cabin, window, roof, and door options, with doors that come completely off if you like. 

You also have a fold-down windshield, door-off mirror kit, and sun-rider for the hard-top models. Customize your Gladiator however you like when you purchase and also while driving, to suit your in-the-moment preferences. 

Trail-Rated Off-Roading Capabilities

Jeep’s legendary Trail-Rated classification system has now been awarded to their first pickup. With 11.6 inches of potential ground clearance, 31.5 inches of water fording, precision steering, and superb tire traction, your Gladiator is ready for almost any off-roading task. 

Superb Suspension for Any Terrain

The suspension of the 2023 Gladiator is designed to further boost your off-roading prowess, with Sway Bar Disconnect and Tru-Lock Electronic Locking Differentials enhancing the already exceptional articulation of each individual wheel. On top of this, you have a powerful 84:1 crawl ratio provided by the Rock Trac 4×4 System for maximum torque when facing a particularly difficult off-road challenge. 

Versatile Cargo Bed System

The 2023 Gladiator’s five-foot all-steel bed can hold an excellent 1,710 pounds of cargo, which is a best-in-class payload. With the adaptable Trail Rail Cargo Management System, you can make extremely efficient use of the bed space, and you needn’t worry about items shaking loose as your truck navigates bumpy, sloping off-road terrain. The system uses cleverly layered compartments with tie-downs to hold everything neatly and firmly in place.
