So I have a year to save for the diesel.

I will say, I really like the JT's taillights over the JL LED units. They appear to have some darker coloring in the middle similar to the RAM Rebel's tails as well. Definitely an improvement!

Good to see this released.
I was pretty disappointed in the fact there won't be a manual diesel. I told the engineers when I was on the line that this will be a killer thing for myself and others.

I would hope so, my daily driver for the last 2 years has been my 1996 XJ with 200k on it since I totaled my Ranger and refuse to spend the money I have saved for the JT on anything else.

I'm having trouble with the lines formed at the back of the rear door. Where it narrows to become much narrow at the bottom was out of necessity for the JL, not the JT.
One of two things I think should have happened: make the front and back doors of similar width at the bottom, or this below, where the tub lines follow the rear door lines.
My 2 cents: the JT in the OP looks a bit like a 1 off custom job made with JL doors.
Otherwise, I think it looks great, and you may disagree about the lines.

FCA/Jeep has said from the get go that they plan to use the JL front end, including the doors. And since all a square door would do is expose seat cushion, I'm fine with it as is.I'm having trouble with the lines formed at the back of the rear door.

OK, is it just me or does the bed look to short? I want it to be as close to the AEV length as it can get. AEV just looks better proportioned comparing to the photos. Hope these are renderings, or there is a longer bed option. Funny, I thought the transition between the cab and bed would be my big gripe, but this is bigger.
Hope these are just renderings and the real deal looks more proportioned.

Wow. Just..... Wow. I like. A lot. 7600lbs TC, Convertible, 1600lbs Payload just put this truck on the radar for me. Price may be a limiting factor but I'll wait to see what those numbers are before a final decision. Something's telling me it's going to be in line with higher end RAM 1500's and wouldn't be surprised if a fully loaded Gladiator with diesel, leather, hardtop Rubicon model would come very close to, or cross $60k.

I'm so happy that the payload is 1600 and towing is 7650. Now I hope people will stop calling it a JL with a bed.
Looks like the folks that wanted the power rear glass got there wish. I hope I can order without it but no big deal if not.
Now give us a Rubicon base priced close to the JL so I don't have to go with the Sport.
