Many years ago my 3 year old cousin Jill was tragically killed when my uncles employee backed over her with his F250 while she was riding her tricycle in her driveway.
My uncle, who operated a construction business, sent his employee to retrieve a box of nails from my uncles garage. The...
Raad the attached article and you will be enlightened (and maybe pissed).

Yes, cars but not light trucks.
The bigger the footprint of a "light truck" vehicle the less manufactures are punished by the CAFE regulations. Read the attached article back from 2012 and you will learn the real story of why all we see on the car lots these days are crew cab pickups with tiny...
You and every other logical person is the U.S. would think that the smaller the vehicle the better the fuel efficiency but its has to do more with saving the "big three" (at the time) auto manufacturers from foreign competition and becoming extinct.
The bigger the footprint of the vehicle the...
Yup, CAFE regulations killed the small mid-sized truck. If manufacturer's still made 2 door "short" bed pickups they would still sell. Many think the small regular cab trucks went away 'cause no one wanted to buy them but that isn't the case.

I wondered if the Bronco tops could have leak issues not having any structural supports along the panel joints. I assume they intend for the panels to support themselves internally and is probably why the roof panels are thicker than Jeeps freedom panels. The couple of times my 2012 JKU roof...
Yah, Ford probably should have went with the trapezoidal wheel openings like they have on there Baja racing Bronco and what they had on their early bronco. It would have looked more retro and brought back even more of the early bronco heritage. The round wheel openings with the flat flares...
Only the windshield is laminated safety glass. The side and rear window's are tempered glass and designed to shatter into small squarish pieces if you need to exit in the case of an accident that renders the door(s) inoperable or if you are incompasitsted and rescuers need to break a window to...
I was thinking the same thing. The J6 would round out Jeeps line up really well. People that are saying it would never sell 'cause 4 dr wranglers outsell 2 dr wranglers are completely discounting that some people actually value more than 5 foot of space in the bed of a pickup truck. In my mind...
