Luckily for me I have always camped and abused my jeeps. So my Gladiator will be no different. At the end of the day it will still hold value regardless of pinstriping from the pine barrens lol. I also spent right at $41k for mine. As I stated previously I paid the same as I would have for an optioned out TRD Pro, with more options.
Glad you made your decision OP. Wish you the best and looking forward to your build
