There's supposed Toledo production line workers in TK's comments section, stating that they're already building Wranglers with 5.7s.
Mid year 26 models MY 27 with 5.7s ?

Why the 5.7 when there's already the 6.4 out there to buy?
If they were building them, then a dealer could order them. They don't build something dealers can't get.

I know it's all hearsay at the moment. Those commenting could just be a Joe Smuckatelli blowing smoke.

Could also be a part of the 12 Duck Drops too. As there's already speculation that several of the 12 special Ducks are 392s or Hemis. Time will tell.

I think MY27 will be a great year for the Gladiator.

If it happens, my bet is on 2027.
They do the 392/6.4 in the Wrangler, why would they scale that back to a 5.7 for the JT?

All anything on the internet is is speculation.
people speculated up the wazoo already about several things - all of that speculating, demanding, take my money talk - nothing for 2025 or even 26 so far.

That was me asking for receipts, I was thinking maybe he is seeing them working on 5.7L prototypes? Just a thought-

Yeah, if they were building anything for real - a dealer could get them. It's not the case at this point. So they aren't building anything for public consumption

U tube click bate . They can say anything with no blame for being wrong.

I want a V8, just not THAT V8.

5.7 is more than enough meow, hence why they're gonna bring them to the Hemi's in the future:

Seems to me that with the 6.4 in the Wrangler, they'd be duplicating a lot of effort to DOWNSIZE the engine for the JT!
Why put a bigger engine in a Wrangler that doesn't tow shit and the smaller one in a TRUCK?............
Towing with the 6.4 in the JLU is 3,500
Towing with the 3.6 in the JLU is 5,000
Interesting.......

Wheelbase is your friend when towing…..

You missed my point, I guess.
Same wheelbase, hemi 6.4 rated 3500 while the 3.6 is 5000 same wheelbase

Correct! I should pay more attention

I don't think a 5.7 JT will happen because SAE J2807 prevented the 2.0T and I don't see how shoe-horning a V8 into that little engine bay could be better. But IF it happens I'll be first in line at the dealership.

An internet prophet says 2027 for the 5.7
