A rugged midsize truck makes the perfect travel companion. The 2026 Jeep® Gladiator and 2026 Toyota Tacoma are two major contenders. Max Curnow Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM shares all the areas where the Jeep truck has the edge.

Robust Power

The 2026 Jeep Gladiator uses a 3.6-liter Pentastar® V6 engine to deliver up to 285 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. With standard power, the 2026 Toyota Tacoma only generates up to 228 horsepower and 243 lb-ft of torque. When properly equipped, that gives the Jeep truck a whopping 7,700-pound towing capacity, while the Toyota truck can only tow up to 6,500 pounds, even with its high-output engine options. In fact, the Jeep Gladiator has more gas towing capabilities than any other vehicle in its class.

Off-Road-Ready Features

Let’s face it, with over eight decades of perfecting their craft, it's tough to beat Jeep vehicles when it comes to off-road prowess. The 2026 Jeep Gladiator is available with many advanced features, such as the Rock-Trac® Heavy-Duty Part-Time 4x4 System, including a segment-exclusive 4:1 transfer case. It also boasts a best-in-class available 84:1 crawl ratio. It makes off-roading extra fun with its segment-exclusive fold-down windshield, removable doors, and removable roof options.

High-Tech Interior

While the 2026 Jeep Gladiator seems like it’s all muscle, it also boasts a high-tech interior, making it ideal for commuting and running errands, too. It has a large 12.3-inch touchscreen, which is the largest standard touchscreen in its class. The standard screen in the 2026 Toyota Tacoma is just eight inches. The Jeep Gladiator also has segment-exclusive Integrated Off-Road Trail Guides.
