The Jeep Wrangler and Jeep Gladiator are the two most capable Jeeps around from the factory, but is the SUV still king off-road over the truck? We stage an off-road race in the Colorado Rockies to find out how much better one is over the other.

37” tires and a short wheelbase vs 35” tires and a long ass runway. For off-roading it’s obvious which is better.

All wheeling that requires lockers should be done in low range. If you need more wheel spin, pick another gear. You get a lot more torque from 4l in 3rd than 4H in 2nd.

Good things to know about Gladiator is the Dana44's versus Rubicon's axles have 10mm thicker axle tubes and beefier mounting brackets. Also you can get base model and get the max tow package that will give you the wide track axles, 4.10 gears and larger radiator. Only down side is long wheelbase.
@pelewads 4 жыл бұрын
Apples to apples? More like apples to pears. Comparing the Gladiator to the Rangler 4 door, is like comparing the 2 door to the 4 door. Shorter is always more maneuverable. Fun video, I really enjoyed it. And the videography was incredible. Really makes me miss my native state.

Once the drone is airborne, it is possible to set your current location as the new 'home' point. Just takes some time going through the menu so you are used to the sequence. To practice, liftoff to 10 feet and let it hover. Then go through the menu to 'set home' again. Once you learn it, it is easy. I use this on my boat.
