In the year of its debut, the Jeep Gladiator has been awarded the prestigious Truck of the Year by a panel of automotive experts.
The North American Car, Utility and Truck of the Year (“NACTOY”) Awards were created in 1994 by Christopher Jensen. Every year since then production vehicles are selected and judged by a panel of about 50 professional automotive journalists who work for various magazines, television, radio, newspapers and industry websites. The NATCOY awards are unique in that they’re the longest-running awards program that is not associated with any single, specific company, publication, website, radio or television station.
