The 2021 Jeep Gladiator is already known to continue in Jeep’s tradition of being fun, practical, and most importantly, able to drive anywhere. In an appealing pickup truck form factor, it provides power and performance parts to let its owners traverse rocks, mud, sand, and go anywhere on Earth. Mopar understands this, and also realizes that these owners want their vehicles to match their lifestyles. As a result, all new for 2021, the performance parts company has introduced the revolutionary "Top Dog" package.
This package focuses specifically on outdoors-minded buyers who love mountain biking, and is equipped accordingly. Instead of the standard storage box, the truck features a flatbed storage system that can hold a variety of items. On the passenger side of this storage system, there are custom drawers for tools and other mountain-biking accessories. On the driver’s side, there is a refrigerator and roller grill. To transport the bikes themselves, the truck features a durable bike rock on top. Even considering just these accessories, it has clear that Mopar has thought long and hard about the best features for mountain bikers, and has prioritized convenience and functionality over all else.
Other accessories include traction mats to help recover vehicles, an engine snorkel to cool the engine when normal vents may be blocked by rough conditions, and an 8,000 lb winch with 100 feet of rope.
From a performance perspective, the truck is no slouch either. The lift kit, FOX shocks, and 37-inch all-terrain wheels ensure that the Gladiator has the chops to reach any rugged location where owners may want to take their mountain bikes. This Top Dog concept is powered by a 285 hp V6 that also outputs 260 lb/ft of torque. Combining standard Jeep power with thoughtfully designed accessories results in a truly unbeatable combination. For buyers who want to take their mountain biking adventures to the next level, this Jeep is the complete package.
