Thair Camper on a Gladiator: 3,000 Miles Later

Tony and Chris catch up on Jeep Talk Show with no interview this week after Gatekeeper Off-Road had to reschedule. They talk Ford Fest mud and rain, a listener since episode one, Anastasia and her husband's Ineos Grenadier, Gatekeeper knuckle lights on Tony's 2021 Gladiator, G-Tops versus one-piece glass roofs, Chris MCing BG4x4 Fest in Bowling Green, Ohio, and real-world use of the Thar inflatable truck camper. Plus new JTS extras: Movie Night watch-along and JTS Flix.

Key Highlights

• Gatekeeper Off-Road interview is postponed; knuckle lights on Tony's Gladiator sit low and turn with the wheels for fog, dust, and night driving
• Ford Fest was muddy and wet, but Chris met longtime listener Ram Mike and Anastasia plus her husband in an Ineos Grenadier on 38s
• G-Tops stay removable like Freedom Panels; Tony and Chris prefer them over 360/365 one-piece glass for open-air days and heat control
• BG4x4 Fest is Oct 2–3 at Wood County Fairgrounds: mud pit, sled pull by weight class, kids events, concert, drone show — bg4x4fest.com
• Thar Camper uses drop-stitch paddleboard material at about 5 PSI, drives inflated, sleeps like a tent with more insulation, and patches if it leaks
