So you’re in the market for something new, and the latest lineup of off-road, boxy SUV-style vehicles is your jam. Ok, we get you!

Chances are your research has consistently brought up 2 of the top off-road vehicles over the past couple years: the Jeep Gladiator and the new(ish) Ford Bronco.

While we think both have lots of things to love about them, we’re here to hit you with what you’re looking for: advice.

Keep reading to find out why you should absolutely choose the Gladiator over the Bronco (for the counter argument, check out this post on why you should choose the Ford Bronco over the Jeep Gladiator).

Why Jeep?

We’re a little shocked that this is even a question, but if you think “off-road” and Jeep doesn’t come to mind then…well we can’t help you. But in all seriousness, Jeep has been synonymous with off-road adventure for decades, and the Jeep Gladiator is the ultimate expression of that heritage.

Here are the top 5 reasons why the Gladiator is a better choice than the Ford Bronco:

1. Superior off-road capability: The Gladiator's 4x4 system is designed to tackle even the toughest terrain. It comes standard with a locking rear differential, skid plates, and a disconnecting front sway bar. The Bronco, on the other hand, is only available in 4x4, and doesn't have the same level of off-road hardware.

2. More versatile: The Gladiator is a true pickup truck, which means it can carry and tow more than the Bronco. It also has a longer bed and a higher payload capacity, making it a great choice for hauling gear or equipment.

3. More customizable: The Gladiator offers a wide range of options and accessories, from lift kits to winches to bed extenders. This allows you to tailor the vehicle to your specific needs and preferences. The Bronco, on the other hand, has fewer customization options.

4. More refined on-road driving experience: The Gladiator offers a smooth and comfortable ride on the road. It's equipped with a refined suspension and a variety of advanced driver-assist systems, such as adaptive cruise control and lane departure warning.

5. Unique style: The Gladiator is a unique and eye-catching vehicle that stands out from the crowd. Its iconic seven-slot grille, round headlights, and rugged design make it a true head-turner.
