    Hello all
    I am 59 and have wanted a jeep ever since I was in the military and drove one, (M-151)
    the time has come and I am shopping for my first jeep. I have chosen the Gladiator for various reasons. I am wondering is 53K considered high mileage?

    Do you have access to its maintenance records?

    As mentioned service records have a big part to answer your question of 53K miles (which may be low depending upon the age) and it may be found if the Jeep dealer serviced the vehicle for maintenance or recalls etc and carfax could have information. If new Gladiator sales have slowed in your area or leftover '23 Gladiators are available, its possible to get into a new Gladiator rather than dealing with a used one with a questionable past history. I'd rather see you with a trouble-free 3 yr bumper-to-bumper warranty than deal with someone else's problem
