2020 Jeep Gladiator vs 2020 Toyota Tacoma

The Jeep Gladiator is an oddity within the American automotive market of pickup trucks. This is not due to just its entry into the Jeep catalog as the brand’s first pickup truck model to hit the USA in over 20 years, however. It is also unique because of its size and mechanics. While technically a midsize pickup, the specs and features of the 2020 Jeep Gladiator position it as a midpoint between many midsize trucks and their full-size counterparts, such as the Colorado and the Silverado.

Obviously, this weighty compromise, providing the power and performance synonymous with full-size trucks in an adventurous and more manageable midsize build, has proved very popular despite the Gladiator being a very recent addition, if sales are any indication. However, it’d still be helpful to see how the 2020 Jeep Gladiator compares to its competition of other midsize pickup truck models.

For today’s comparison, we’ve chosen the Toyota Tacoma, which has dominated the midsize truck market in America for over a decade. With a redesigned 2020 model year on the horizon, the Tacoma felt like a very relevant and challenging competitor. So, let’s see how the Gladiator fares! It’s the 2020 Jeep Gladiator vs the 2020 Toyota Tacoma!
