I can't see the pictures...just a little blue question mark.
So you went in there not having researched the models? Looks like you're basically building a Rubicon...did you screw up or was the price too high for it?
I'm kind of a truck nut and keep up on all the latest from the various manufacturers. People seem pretty happy with that truck.Suddenly my feet are feet of mud
It all goes slo-mo
I don't know why I am crying
Am I suspended in Gaffa?

Yes, the wife has been driving a 2001 Toyota 4Runner and on a whim, we went car shopping. We saw the Gladiator, took it for a test drive, worked in the upgrades and took it off the lot with 11 miles on the ODO. 2 months later, we're at 4500 miles of offroading on the ODO.

Very nice! That truck looks more sizable than I thought it would be. Your wife is spoiled, man.

Agreed. The 2001 4Runner still looks and runs like brand new. It has a paltry 120k miles on it, whereas my Ram 3500 (9 years older) has 223k miles on it. We kept the 4Runner and the wife still likes to drive it. I tried (and failed) to convince her to let me chop it and situate it for rock crawling..

I was hoping we'd hit snow last weekend and the canyon between Vernon and Delta didn't disappoint (for the most part), but the drive through Eureka toward Little Moab was the muddiest mess I've ever encountered. 6 car washes into it and I'm still dripping mud everywhere, but at least my Rock Slide Engineering steps function again..

Just an update on our SxS.. since purchase, the wife made me take ownership and we promptly went out and bought her a new Wrangler Unlimited, 2" Mopar Lift, Fox 2.0 shocks, 37" tires and some awesome rock sliders. It will be a perm. mall-crawler. My Gladiator has been in the shop all week getting Rubicon D44 axles w/lockers and Falcon SP2 3.3 Shocks to replace the Fox 2.0 shocks. Can't wait to test out the lockers this weekend!

Cool.
But what brand of mud tires are those?It's only "science" if it supports the narrative.
