Ever since my son and I first saw the J6, it's been all he has wanted. To FCA: please build it so I can get one for him.

Saw this little beauty at Rubitrux yesterday. I believe it is for sale on their website. It has 5.3L LS V8. Bet it hauls the mail!

If Ford builds the Bronco in a shorter cab and longer bed configuration and it sells well, then so will Jeep. If Ford ever actually builds the Bronco, I'm guessing it will be a 4-door.;
The Bronco is confirmed for reveal at the 2020 NAIAS in June. Ford has already announced a pickup truck variant by 2023. Based upon what has been revealed so far, there will be numerous configurations responding to all market segments and not leaving any preferences out - as they should.

WOW! What a beauty - thanks for the tip on this website - I book marked it. Finally a source for a sweet two door Jeep pickup that doesn't cost $90k. The heck with battling Jeep to build a two door or extended cab Gladiator with a longer bed - I can just shop Rubitrux!

Funny how there's so much said about no market for a smaller cab/longer bed Jeep pickup - all but two of the two door regular cab trucks on Rubitrux are sold!!!

Plus, Jesse and team at Rubitrux are first rate. No BS, straight up and easy to work with at least for my hemi conversion.

That little truck is sweet and the price even sweeter!

Has anybody seen Jeep's recent post on Instagram? It's a video of what appears to be the J6 blasting through a sand dune before the words "The Evolution of Capability. Chicago Auto Show Feb 6" pop up on the screen. The small print on the bottom says "coming soon".

Could this be the announcement of a 2 door Gladiator we've been waiting for?!?!

Guy on the JL forum has been hinting at Jeep but non Wrangler news top come from Chicago. Implied it's a desert runner thing.

Rumors from last year were for a Gladiator "Hercules," possibly with the rumored "Tornado" I-6.

Recent spy shots show a Gladiator with a camo'd hood with a bulge.

Jeep has ruled out the HEMI because of the lack of crumple zone. The length of an I-6 might pose similar problems.

But the turbo v6 from the Giulia?

And no, I'm not seeing any video on their Instagram.

The guy at the JL forums says to the news should break tonight/ tomorrow after midnight when the press embargo ends.

Hope it’s the J6 we drooled over it at sema last November. My son will be in debt.

The hemi in my Rubi sits in almost the same position as the 3.6 did, meaning the front edge of the hemi is in the same relative position as the front edge of the 3.6.
