2020 Ranger VS 2020 Jeep Gladiator

2020 is certainly going to be an interesting year for the automotive community. With the release of all sorts of different performance car nameplates aside, the truck community is really delivering on a high level. It seems as if the 2020 line is pivotal for lots of brands. Some of these brands have introduced new models or brought back fan favorites.

This time, of course, we are talking about the Ford Ranger and Jeep Gladiator. Both of these vehicles have come highly anticipated and they’re both ready to rip. Naturally, or maybe unnaturally, these rides are going to compete with one another. If we wound back the clock a couple of years ago, we would’ve never thought that the Jeep brand would be jocking for a position in the pickup truck segment. Furthermore, we wouldn’t have believed that the Ranger was actually going to make a comeback, either.

However, both are in the flesh and we’ve certainly found a good group of guys to put them to the test. The crew over at Hoonigan are no strangers to a little bit of torture testing. In fact, they’ve essentially made their careers around it. This time, they’ve found some of the latest small pickup trucks to come to market and are taking them off of the beaten path. In order to do that, they head down to Jeremy McGrath’s ranch to have some fun!

By following along with the video below, we get to see how these brand-new pickups can stand up to the abuse. In turn, we get to see some tasteful modifications that can give potential customers an idea of what they’re getting themselves into. We have to admit that after watching a beating like this, we have a little bit more confidence in both of these nameplates. Which one takes the cake in your book?
