The Jeep Gladiator is one of the few pickups engineered from the factory for when the tarmac ends, and you can drive it from the dealership around the world. The Rubicon package boosts all-terrain performance with rugged hardware and intelligent assists, including Dana 44 axles, front and rear lockers, a front sway-bar disconnect, lifted and uprated suspension, 33-inch tires, bolstered armor, Off-Road+ Mode, and Selec-Speed control. For any overlander, these credentials read like a dream, but for many enthusiasts, they’re just the foundation for a full expedition build. This is achieved via almost unparalleled aftermarket support whereby owners have access to on-demand parts, accessories, and services that can reimagine the Gladiator from the ground up. Executive Publisher Scott Brady states, “In my experience, the Gladiator is all I love about the Wrangler, plus nearly all I love about a Power Wagon. In addition, the Gladiator is the aftermarket darling, so anything imaginable can be bolted to it, although it needs almost nothing at all.” Cue today’s 2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon (105,322 miles), which boasts premium aftermarket upgrades and is topped with a fully equipped Alu-Cab Canopy camper. We’ve listed many Gladiators, but this is one of the most dialed-in examples to date. The Jeep has been reimagined from the ground up with upgraded wheels and tires, brakes, suspension and steering components, lighting, recovery provisions, armor, and cab storage and accessories. This serves as the ideal foundation for the Alu-Cab Canopy camper with highlights that include a lithium battery system, Dickinson propane fireplace, 13 gallons of freshwater (with hot water), an awning, and Goose Gear cabinetry. What makes this offering so special is that an experienced community member built it (check out their Instagram and YouTube), and it’s not just a proof of concept, but an overland-proven expedition vehicle that has been extensively field-tested. At $45,950 OBO, this package offers impressive value, costs a fraction of what it would take to recreate, and is available today with no lead time.
From the Seller:
“Built with premium components from some of the most respected names in the off-road and overlanding industry, this Gladiator has been thoughtfully equipped to handle everything from technical trails and remote backcountry routes to multi-day expeditions far from traditional campgrounds. This is not a project waiting to be finished. It’s a complete overland platform with an integrated camper, electrical system, solar charging, onboard water, heating, communications, recovery equipment, and extensive suspension and drivetrain upgrades. The expensive part of building an expedition vehicle has already been done. A carefully selected collection of upgrades enhances the factory Rubicon capability, improving trail performance, steering, durability, and control while carrying the added weight of a fully equipped expedition camper.”
