Nice vid. Not sure how many queues would carry over but the bed design seems like a logical extension despite the tack-on RAM short-box in early mules. The guys in Montana do make nice trucks though. :rock: One thing I expect to be improved on the JT over the Brute is the Suspension, as the...

I believe instead of MSRP it's listed as... AEV. And we know what that means. ;)

Why not the RAM 2500HD Off-Road ? You can get that as a manual 6-speed and with either a Hemi or Diesel, short-box, long-box, short or full-cab.. Not as off-road worthy as a Power Wagon and perhaps JT, but moreso than the Silverado, and can be configured with the manual transission and diesel...

Not true. https://www.topgear.com/car-news/classic/mercedes-benz-pick-you-want-and-need#1

The new Maybach 'Laundrette', where to hide your $500K in petro-dollars from the Magnitsky act, and drive them across any border. Money Laundering Made easy by Mercedes. Pointless otherwise. :cwl:

After tweaking with contrast,WB, and a few log/sin/hist filters, still reveals nothing special up front. The front control arm looks similar to current, maybe slightly refined attachment point and slight round of the arm itself, but still looks pretty much like the current front end, and no cool...

Nice! Finally some good pics of the front suspension. Gotta look at the pics in more depth when back gome, but those front end pics look like they've updated the front suspension as well as the new rear 5-link like the Ram.

Order banks aren't for pre-order, they open a few weeks before the line starts producing vehicles. Check some of the JK forums to get familiar with the process, especially the "waiting room" threads. There will be a projected Order Bank opening date, and if you want in early, then you keep...

I agree, it will be close, I think it'll just be softened a bit. Movies are still over the top, so likely still a bit shinier/edgier than what will be on the showroom floor.

Better than a Flex, but it will probably still look nothing like that in reality unfortunately, and definitely no longer a Wrangler competitor. The original concept Bronco was impressive, like the LR DC100, but their 'to-market' final product is going to only slightly reflect that early...

LOL! Wuss !! ;) Day 12 of my Cross-Canada 150 trek... 9,500 KMs sofar.. longest stretches two 1,200KM legs of 14hrs. The trick is to do some serious stretches and even a bit of a walk/jog at fuel stops, or else your feet will swell a bit and your butt muscles will go too. Also don't cheap out...

Yeah to me, the biggest concern JT-wise is the possibility that it is met with the same reaction the FJ was. Initial remarkable sales that have FCA meeting pent-up demand and seeing ~40K+ the first initial partial year production, then ~60K+ second year, and then a precipitous drop-off after...

Completely different markets. Baby Raptor's not convertible, and the Baby Raptor is not 'sporty' which makes it not even close. The baby Raptor is like the Ford BroncoII , for people who can't afford a Bronco but wanna feel like they 'own a Bronco' Maybe Compete with the JT, but not the JL...

It's definitely nowhere near as severe and angle, but most imoortantly it's also cosmetic, only on the outside about 6 inches inward, not extending under the cab, so similar to the JK8, it's only the outside panel that is tilted in, not the bed. The rear of the SportTrac cab is rather flat with...

The VW issue is different from the EcoDiesel issue. There are some minor similarities, but the extent of which is Apple to Oranges. The ED still passes emissions with those 8 pieces of code removed, the issue is that FCA did not disclose the 8 programming that changes profile for cold weather...

Yeah, that's what it looks like may be the case, that there will be a design split between the two, and by recycling some of the JK line (even if just the paint shop, etc), there may be advantage to that in bringing it quicker to market or reducing the costs, and possibly allow the re-use of...

To me that kinda looks like a darkened rear port hole gap that's covered by camo, but dunno.

It can't, it doesn't have the rear for it, so it has to be some variation thereof. It could have two versions like the YJ's two options the Sport and Family bars, but in this case the JL/JLU and JT/JTU. But from the previous road test photo from last month, it doesn't look like it has an...

So a Ford Ranger picture in a Wrangler forum? :tumbleweed:

I don't give this article much cedibility, because all the linked 'support' has no actual support, especially the "serious problem" link in the article leads to " 0 " occurrences. And not surprisingly every comment and forum comment about it say the article is full of BS, and go into detail...
