Jeep has built a reputation around rough and rugged SUVs that can handle any adventure, whether it’s off-road or on. Now, the American automaker is poised to carve out a legacy in a new segment: the performance pickup truck. Enter the 2020 Jeep Gladiator.
What To Expect From the 2020 Jeep Gladiator
Design
The new Jeep Gladiator is a vehicle with a whole lot of body — when you want it. The doors, windshield, and roof can be removed and stowed in the truck bed or garage to lighten your load and bring you closer to the experience.
Removable panels aren’t the only transformative features of the 2020 Jeep Gladiator. There is also a 5’ cargo bed with a sprayed-in bedliner and 3-position tailgate, cover, trail rails for gear, a waterproof power outlet, and a rear towing camera which gives you more adventure support than ever.
You wouldn’t expect an off-roader like the Gladiator to be too concerned with its interior, but that wasn’t neglected by Jeep. There are average comforts like leather wrappings, dual-zone temperature control, and heated steering and seats, but it’s the more thoughtful touches that drivers will love. It’s the removable Bluetooth® speakers, forward facing TrailCam with tire lines on the infotainment center, and the rear back-up cam with trailer hitch zoom that lets you connect and control everything from your phone.
Performance
The new Gladiator is just as much of a road warrior as its imposing build would imply. It employs a high intake to let you cross easily through streams. It also boasts more than 11” of ground clearance, Trailer Brake Control, and a legendary Rock-Trac® 4×4 system with an 84:1 crawl ratio.
All of the above are powered by a 3.6L V6 base engine that puts out 285 horsepower and 260 lb.-ft. of torque.
Safety
Blind spot monitoring, Full-Stop Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Departure, Park Assist, Rear Traffic Detection, and Collision Warning are just a few of the available safety features out of the 80 packed into the 2020 Jeep Gladiator.
Other than the steel chassis, which deflects impact energy away from passengers, the Gladiator is also built with thicker tubes and forgings than the average truck. An electronic sway bar, Fox shocks, and locking differentials are all part of the mix.

When Do You Know It’s Time for an Oil Change?
There was once a time when we were told to change our oil every three months or 3,000 miles. With the introduction of more technologically advanced engines and modern oil chemistry, those days have come and gone. Generally speaking, today’s vehicles can go anywhere from 5,000 to 15,000 miles in between oil changes.
So how can you tell if your car is in need of one?
Oil Change Helpful Hints
Refer to the manual
The first and simplest way to know if your car is due for an oil change is to check the manual. Your manual is specifically written for your make and model. That means it’s more reliable than advice from your gearhead friend or information you’ve been given from your mechanic on previous cars.
Your car is special and should be treated as such. If the manual specifies you should change the oil, take your car in to get serviced.
Keep an eye on the warning light
Modern cars can let you know if you need an oil change without you even moving from behind the wheel. Your car likely has an oil light that kicks on when you need an oil change. This light may also be a sign that your oil level is low, so you’ll want to get it checked right away.
Check your oil
Many service experts recommend checking your oil at least once a month. While you’re under the hood, use your dipstick to take a look at your oil. First, if the level is low, you’ll need to make sure to fill it up. The oil should look amber in color. If the oil looks too dark or dirty or is filled with particles, you should take it in for service right away.
Look out for signs of car trouble
If you’re noticing your car isn’t driving as it should, there’s a possibility that your oil is the culprit. Old or low oil can cause your engine to overheat, leading to costly repairs. It’s best to get this looked at immediately. In some cases, going too long between oil changes can even cause your engine to shut down.
