My wife is (im)patiently waiting to trade in her JK. Fastest groceries in town, rain or shine!Im surprised that there hasn't been any chatter about the Rubicon 392 on this thread. I hope they make a Gladiator as well.
I currently have a sport sedan and my 19 DSI Wrangler Rubicon. Find myself looking at it and wondering if it is worth the 200 HP increase to lose all of my customization on my Jeep. My conclusion was ,probably not, but I can see ditching the car. Thing is, I don't really want to have 2 Wranglers in my garage, so I am hoping they come out with a Gladiator 392! Fingers crossed.My wife is (im)patiently waiting to trade in her JK. Fastest groceries in town, rain or shine!
im guessing demand will change their minds on that I’m a year or two.I have read in various articles that there are no plans for the Gladiator 392.
Looks like Its happening to me... They are giving info and specs on it now at Jeep.com. I think it said, “Coming in January 2021.”I have read in various articles that there are no plans for the Gladiator 392.

Sorry, misread above posts. I thought the doubt was about the Wrangler 392. Correct, no mention of Gladiator 392. sorryhttps://www.motortrend.com/news/jeep-gladiator-392-truck/
I only see the Wrangler Unlimited on the Jeep.com website, unless I am missing something.

So my brother and and possibly a couple others are looking to take a big Jeep trip from about March 27 to April 3. So far, we've got two ideas, including Moab and the VT/NH/ME part of the Appalachian Byway. VT has some technical trails that are tough, but VT and ME are more scenic with dirt roads. We are leaning toward Moab for more technical challenge, plus that part of the Appalachian Byway would probably be prettier in October.
It would be the week before Easter Jeep Safari, and we'd do the Rimrocker Trail on our way in.
What other great Jeep destinations would any of you recommend for that time of year? I'd expect many places to be wet, but that's no bother. It just makes it more interesting. Just looking for ideas.
Another thing in Moab's favor is that my brother has never been there and he's itching to stretch the legs of his Gladiator and see what she can do. He just put a lift and 35's on it, so it's ready to go!
Given the altitude of the Ouray/Telluride/Silverton area you could have a bunch of snow to deal with in late March.If you head towards Moab, plan a stop in Southwestern Colorado in the Ouray/Telluride/Silverton areas...tons of amazing trails out there and being 10-14k feet elevation in the San Juan Mountains will make for a completely different experience that you can compare to Moab.
