Interesting that there are comparisons above between Wranglers and trucks.
While I've never driven a modern Wrangler, I have driven the Gladiator and I would say that it is nothing like a truck. I don't know how the Gladiator compares to the Wrangler, but I found the Gladiator drove just like the old CJ-5 I used to drive did. (i.e. B. A. D.) There's not a truck that drives like that. (Unless you start talking about modifications. I'm comparing 'off-the-rental-lot.')
Honestly, I was shocked that the Gladiator drove the way it did. Not necessarily that it had those characteristics, (Poor steering feel and tracking, excessive body roll, 'hobby horse' longitudinal rocking (which is a function of wheelbase, which means the Wrangler would be worse.)) but rather that FCA felt that was good enough for them. As mentioned above, these vehicles are relatively expensive, and I would expect more from them. I have a truck as a daily driver and have driven every brand of truck in the past 12 months (courtesy of EAN,) and there's no comparison. I'm not looking for an S-Class ride, I'm looking for a 'truck' ride, and they didn't even manage that.
