I am genuinely surprised how well that thing picked up speed. They should have put something on the dash for that brake controller. My Ford will tell me how much gain the brakes have and even my aftermarket controller in my chevy shows me some numbers when I apply the brake. That controller does look slick though compared to aftermarket.
Let me guess you're one of those geniuses who still changes the oil in their driveway because it makes them feel cool even though it's cheaper to take it in and you don't have to mess with disposing of oil... Lol I leave that kind of BS for the lube techs
@@MudPuppyOffroad its ok if you don't know how to do basic service on your tractor im sure you feel like a real man when you shif your jeep into 4x4 just the same as any soccer mom can do
any chance you can compare how this tows compared to a Grand Cherokee? Many say the Gladiator's front solid axle makes this car sway and requires more steering input, but on the other hand the Gladiator has a longer wheel base.
Funny, you had it set to 5,000lbs but yet you are towing close to 8,000lbs but you call the controller junk......I think you aren't the driver you say you are when you don't even have any common sense to know how to set the trailer brake..... get the right setting on the knob before you criticize the product genius
We live in a flat state most trucks can tow more than whats recommended. Its mountains I would only be worried about. I tow a sxs and all my hunting gear 2 times a year from fl to WV my truck dosent feel it till I get to NC where the hills begin. I've seen people do way more weight with less truck here in FL lol 👍
Sounds like u really like that mopar brake controller lol. Great info and loved the video ill stay clear of the mopar unit looks kinda like an afterthought that jeep came up with in a hurry.
I am going to relocate my 12 volt receptacle to the bottom compartment of the center console. My wife has her 12 volt receptacle in her lower center console on her 2019 Jeep Cherokee Limited from the factory. Run the wire under the console into the lower console compartment.
90 mph in a midsize towing 8k and no weight distribution hitch, your so damn lucky you didn’t get bent sideways and cause a wreck. You are reckless and a careless human.
@@MudPuppyOffroad You should mention this in the description considering you spent a good deal of time bashing it to oblivion. I did enjoy this video though, and the other one you made showing this exact setup. Ill be towing a Sundance 222RB with the 2022 Sport S with Max Tow package.
It’s pretty easy to install, I’ve never pulled dash panels out before and if you buy the tool to do it which is cheap, they pop right out and it is super easy to install if you take your time and think ahead. The instructions do suck though.
@@atvrepairsandmore2482 actually DOT requires chains. Also he needs one over the forks in front too. Let's just say he would have a long list of violations if he was stopped.
@@jacobreed1087 I've bought and sold lots of farm equipment.Currently have 2 brush hogs/rotary mowers I use. Go ask a farmer for a shredder and they won't have any idea what your talking about.
That's cute! I thought Jeeps were just made for pulling WaveRunners then blowing transmissions and rear axles when people take them off road.. I am surprised though! Still wouldn't trust it much. huh my little sister has a Jeep little.
Tell us how you really feel about the factory trailer brake controller. 😂
I tow my Track loader and Mini X with my Gladiator. 35 in tires, 4.88 gears Bagged with helper springs and Supercharger. No issues

I like how you said you use your 4x4 shifter cause you're a man but you take your tractor in for service instead of doing it your self.... 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Hey Dick, why don't you watch a few more of my other videos, learn a few things, then come back and talk to me
3.6 is fuggin screaming and it’s a good truck if you’re towing couple times a month but if you’re doing it every that isn’t the truck for the job
You crack me up with your comments... love it!

Very good point
Right on I'm from PA and towing on the flat is nothing. Go thru some mountains and you'll change your mind.
I’m in the NC mountains and we burn transmissions up every 2-3 years lol
You don’t care about our opinions? Yet here you are giving yours. Narcissist!
Trailers 3k, tractors 4K
Rough cutter(shredder) is 1k. Overloaded!
You didn't have to watch this video
the 3.6 pulls good
Love the honest opinions!! 🤣🤣
Thats crazy i think all pick up trucks should come with a brake controller and a bed liner from the factory!! Standard!!
When aftermarkets are better...why needed?
@@cowlumbus just at least provide it from the factory if you don’t like it switch it out
Is there a vid on the trailer if not could you make one? Just bought a 7x22 14k equipment trailer myself and id love to hear about your 24 footer.

Good acceleration for that much weight.
Wassup I love ur content been watching for a while hope ur days going well

I just did that. I’ve got a video coming out soon about it.
You got the wrong gladiator, diesel rubicon, and why did you go for 90mph with a heavy long trailer like that……..?….
Because i can.
The diesel is def cool but slower and more expensive... sooo

It's You're* cupcake
Nice comeback.
It is rated to tow 7650lbs
@@kurt3543 right I was 200 lb off still less than the weight of his mom
Can you do a review on your tractor cause I’ve looked them up but haven’t seen any reviews about them
Redarc Tow-Pro Elite
Thank you so much man.
Holy rpms batman😮
Is there a specific reason u got the gladiator in auto and not stick? Or did you get the Eco diesel?
Yep this configuration tows the most
The manual version drops you're towing capacity by a huge amount
I just bought the EcoDiesel. I was surprised that it only tows 6,500 lbs. Something to do with the engine taking up room for the cooling capacity.
Thanks! My sister and I are both looking for a brake controller for our Gladiators. Any after market you would recommend?
The Mopar one ended up working out really great it was just a pain to install

I’ve had the same issue with the brake controller. My push button will only work when it is rotated 90 CCW. You said you took it apart to fix it?
Yeah it's a bunch of little plastic pieces though very delicate
If you really did care for that pay load you should’ve got the airbags the six. 5 inch kit
So I guess you sold the taco and the Silverado?
What was the tongue weight on that trailer
Alot lol prob 1500lbs
Jeez 90mph with that weight ain’t bad
No it ain’t bad, it’s reckless.
Them mpg’s went way down getting on the highway lol overall not bad tho
Keep your opinions to yourself...Cause i sure dont care about them. That should be on a shirt LOL
where are the chains?! damn flordians
What are you talking about ? He had heavy duty tiedowns
Yeah I probably should have used a chain You're right but it's only a 4500 lb tractor
I usually throw a chain on the rear and then strap it forward
It does not need it, he has heavy straps on there
@@atvrepairsandmore2482 actually DOT requires chains. Also he needs one over the forks in front too. Let's just say he would have a long list of violations if he was stopped.
Every thought about the new tundras
I've already had a 5.7 tundra and I was not impressed toyota would have to make some serious improvements
@1:42 "cus I sure don't care about em" LMFAO!
The question always is ... How hot does the transmission get ...
Doesn't get hot at all. Barely different than not towing
Leda lee
God damn
I'm surprised you purchased any Chrysler product
Shredder, you mean bush hog?
Usually some terminology differences between up north and down south boys. Tomatoe tomato crescent wrench fit all wrench all the same.
I mean a bush hog is a name brand and a shredder is technically what the tool is designed to do
Brush hog and rotary mower are the correct terms
That’s right
@@jacobreed1087 I've bought and sold lots of farm equipment.Currently have 2 brush hogs/rotary mowers I use. Go ask a farmer for a shredder and they won't have any idea what your talking about.
