The first picture looks like an Edsel sucking on a Lemon.

Every time you make a call a hipster grows a beard. 

I have a fascination with #vanlife, full time RVing, overlanding, ect ect. and one common denominator I’ve noticed is how damn much money people ask for stuff like this. Considering how little it would cost to buy a clean Econoline and retrofit it with a few amenities, it makes me wonder if there’s any money ready to…

Because they are the ones flying on it? Just like how every sitting president is given a budget to redecorate the white house and oval office to their style...

Because it falls under the executive branch.

If I were a betting man, I’d wager willfully obtuse is your regular gig.

I’ll agree. The new livery isn’t terrible. It’s just incredibly mediocre and uninspired. It looks like an early 90s budget airline. 

How can a paint scheme be greedy? Anyway, I like the JFK scheme better but this new one doesn’t look that bad. It’s not like they’re painting it to look like the Team America jet.

Probably because this is an Air Force project currently occurring and so falls under the purview of the current Commander in Chief. It’s hard to ask the president in 2024 what they want at the moment.

You really came unstuck on that one.

Thats a pocket I want to part of.

This is supposed to be a midsize truck though competing with the Ranger/Colorado, not the full size ones. 

Thats not a great comparison. The size of the Gladiator puts it in competition with the Ranger and Colorado, which are thousands less than a base model Gladiator with better equipment at even the base model

This is a bad take. Crank windows are good, but people want apple carplay, any less torque the Gladiator will never get out of its own way. 

That’s the problem, you can get a bigger, more capable truck for the same money. There were plenty of Gladiators at the local Jeep dealership for well into the $50k range. That’s 3/4 ton truck money. I love the idea of a Wrangler pickup priced to compete with midsize offerings, not so much priced against 1/2 to 3/4…

“she’s got dirty flaps!”

Literally anything <$2k = NP

We’ll see.

“We’ll see” is what people who are wrong say to put off having to admit they’re wrong.
