My Initial Jeep Gladiator Mojave Impressions (21 JT Mojave)

This was my first time offroad with my new-to-me 2021 Jeep Gladiator Mojave out with San Diego Jeep Club (SDJC) on their first trip of the year in Johnson Valley where they hold King of the Hammers.
This is not intended to be my initial review. This is meant to show you some of my initial & raw impressions taking my Desert Rated Jeep out to the desert.
Thank you for watching :)

After bellying o a woop, I lifted and went 37s. Lot to discover with the Mo-chine, but it's only a starting platform.

[@PlanItSendIt]

Agreed!

[@DarylRosenberg01]

Looks really fun! lol That back gets air a lot. haha

[@PlanItSendIt]

Yeah it was fun and the back definitely jumps around.

[@long-jeep]

For a long wheelbase it did surprising well clearing the belly and rear. The JT will keep you on your toes making sure you don't try to crawl it like the LJ! 😁

[@PlanItSendIt]

Agreed, and it definitely kept me on my toes. Significantly less forgiving than my LJ.

@xman1564 there's definitely not one shoe that fits all perfectly

Hope Jeep dumps Fox shocks. My front two are squeaking terrible, waiting on warranty. On back order from China of course.

[@PlanItSendIt]

I've seen that quite a bit on the forums. Good luck
