Jeep has introduced another state-specific, limited-edition version of their popular Gladiator truck, this time catering to off-roaders in Florida. Known as the 2024 Gladiator High Tide Edition, this special edition model features a distinctive exterior design that is also available to order in Texas.
The High Tide Edition is based on the Sport S trim level and comes equipped with several notable features. It is fitted with 17-inch black-painted wheels wrapped in 32-inch mud-terrain tires, steel rock rails, and a body-colored hardtop. One unique feature of this edition is the “HIGH TIDE” decals on the hood, giving it an eye-catching look. While there are no released pictures of the back end, Jeep has mentioned that there will be an edition-specific badge on the tailgate.
Inside, the High Tide Edition mirrors the Texas Trail Edition in many ways. It offers keyless entry, black McKinley leather upholstery, and a 12.3-inch touchscreen for the Uconnect 5 infotainment system. Additionally, it includes adaptive cruise control, heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and heated door mirrors. These features make it suitable for all weather conditions, even the occasional freezing temperatures in Florida.
Under the hood, the High Tide Edition retains the same mechanical specifications as the standard Gladiator. It is powered by a 3.6-liter V6 engine producing 285 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. Buyers have the option to choose between a six-speed manual transmission or an optional eight-speed automatic transmission.
The 2024 Jeep Gladiator High Tide Edition is currently available for purchase in Florida, with a base price of $50,170, including a mandatory $1,895 destination charge. Buyers can select from six paint colors: Black, Bright White, Granite Crystal, Hydro Blue, Firecracker Red, and Anvil.
For those who reside outside Florida and Texas but still want a limited-edition Gladiator, Jeep has released several other variants in recent months. These include the blacked-out NightHawk and the Rubicon-based Mopar. Additionally, Jeep offers the unique Tuscadero Pink paint option for those looking for a standout color choice.
In conclusion, the 2024 Jeep Gladiator High Tide Edition is a state-specific, limited-edition truck designed for off-roaders in Florida. It features a distinctive exterior design and a range of notable features. While only available in Florida, Jeep offers other limited-edition variants for customers outside of this region. With its powerful performance and stylish design, the High Tide Edition is sure to appeal to Jeep enthusiasts looking for a unique and capable off-road truck experience.
