Hastings Jeep – Desert-Bred Control Meets Real-World Driving: The 2026 Jeep Gladiator Mojave X for Doniphan, NE
If your adventures pull you toward open sand, scrub-lined two-tracks, and the long horizon beyond the county road, the 2026 Jeep® Gladiator Mojave X deserves a hard look. It pairs the pickup utility you need for boards, coolers, and recovery gear with desert-focused engineering that helps you travel quicker and smarter when the surface loosens up. The exclusive Desert Rated® Badge signals meaningful differences—reinforced frame sections, strengthened iron steering knuckles, and enhanced suspension tuning—that stabilize the truck across whoops and washboard while maintaining confident steering. Those 33-inch all-terrain tires aren’t just for show; they deliver the sidewall give, footprint, and bite you want when sand texture changes minute by minute.
Beyond chassis hardware, Mojave X turns trail time into smooth time. The cockpit centers on a 12.3-inch Uconnect® 5 NAV display with Integrated Off-Road Adventure Guides, including all Jeep® Badge of Honor® trails. That means when your plan shifts—say, a side trip to slickrock—you’ve got verified data, waypointing, and trail notes ready to go. Available heated eight-way power front seats keep you steady over variable terrain, and USB ports distributed around the cabin mean your navigation devices and action cams stay charged. For tactical visibility at low speed, the available TrailCam Off-Road Camera gives you real-time views of ruts, rises, and small ledges that might hide in bright sun or shadowy washes.
- Desert Rated® foundation: Reinforced frame sections, strengthened iron steering knuckles, and enhanced suspension refine control on sand.
- Trail visibility: Available TrailCam Off-Road Camera helps you pick smart lines at trailheads and in narrow arroyos.
- Command-center tech: 12.3-inch Uconnect® 5 NAV brings integrated guides and on-trail mapping to the forefront.
- Open-air freedom: Removable top and doors with a new tool-free hinge system make setup fast before sunrise departures.
- Work-ready bed: 5-foot steel bed with integrated tie-downs secures recovery boards, fuel, and coolers when the route gets remote.
Daily life matters, too, and Mojave X plays well Monday to Friday. The ride quality on patched pavement feels calm and composed, and the steering is reassuring on windy days. When the weekend arrives, you can air down, remove the doors, and chase the ridgeline—knowing that the suspension and tire package were born for exactly that. The 5-foot steel bed and easy-lift tailgate make loading simple, while integrated tie-downs keep awkward cargo stable when washboard vibration picks up. Jeep® Connect via the Jeep Connect app lets you check Vehicle Health Report and locate your parked truck after a long day at a festival or trailhead.
