Imagine a Wrangler that ate a pickup truck for breakfast. That’s the Jeep Gladiator. It’s a pickup truck, but with removable doors and a bed that can hold… well, not much more than a surfboard and some takeout.
It’s hilariously impractical—the bed is short, the turning radius is the size of a football field, and it costs as much as a small house. But if you want to be the coolest person at the hardware store while buying exactly two bags of mulch, this is your ride. Surprising fact: the Gladiator was announced via a Super Bowl ad with Lebron James called “The Road.” Yes, Jeep spent millions on a commercial about a truck that can carry a bicycle.

These are for people who want luxury but still want to tell their neighbors, “I could drive up a mountain if I wanted to.” Starting price? Around $60,000. That’s more than my college tuition. And the Grand Wagoneer comes with a 24-speaker McIntosh audio system. You can hear a pin drop from three states away.
