Wow! That looks great.

If that had an extended cab so there was a little storage behind the front seats that would definitely work for me!

If they had a 4 door version, I'd buy that in a minute

I want to see it topless.

I'm not a regular cab fan but I can appreciate the work that went in to it. What really impresses me is that quadratec green though. I literally had just told the wife yesterday jeep needs a metallic emerald green, and seeing this one just confirms it.

I would have bought a two door over a four door had it been available. Not everyone wants/needs a family/crew truck. I may represent a smaller target market for Jeep, but add in open bed service /delivery economy fleet vehicles and it is a large market that would purchase two door trucks.

Yes, there is a market and Quadratec has the right idea with using the 4Xe. CAFE is the reason for the demise of the small 2 door short bed pickup.

Wonder if they will do a give away for it.

Cool truck but I was out after the kilt and flip flops showed up. So professional.

That's a good read, thanks for posting. I knew there were more reasons to dislike the PT Cruiser Joking aside, I wondered why the small truck took so long to come back. I like my mid-size for my usage, but everyone of my family that lives in the 'burbs or on mini-ranches covet the little Chevy Luv type trucks for their utility.

I hope so. It would be a good way to pay for the build and maybe make some cash for Tread Lightly.

I still have my '95 S10 ZR2, regular cab with the short 6 foot bed, but the young people consider the bed to be a long bed. It's a great little utility truck for outdoor work. With the topper on it, it makes into a nice little camper as well. A little jeep pickup like quadratecs JTe or Mopars J6 concept would be a great replacement for my 27 year old pickup.

That guy also built Q-Tecs TJL
He is a great builder, but IMHO kind of a whack job.

I'd totally rock that 2 door.
