GMC Canyon 5,030
Jeep Gladiator 4,479
Honda Ridgeline 3,369
That is terrible for something as hyped as the Gladiator was. Clearly they priced this wrong. Typicaly FCA (err Stellantis!) it'll be $15,000 on rebate next month....

A quick search thorough Autotrader shows only 24 new 2020 models left on the whole province. They look to have actually hit the projection pretty well.

That truck should have started at $30-$35k to make it attractive to your average 30-year-old guy that would want to buy it. Old guys with money are very unlikely to buy a Gladiator if it's going to be their only vehicle because no doubt they drive like garbage with compromises here there and everywhere.

What do you base $30-$35k pricing on? Is that just a feeling? Do you realize you aren’t finding any new truck out there for $35000 right? 96 month terms make Jeep’s very attractive to young buyers. Like Jeep Wranglers, the Gladiator looks to hold its value extremely well too.
