+1 I check the site everyday hoping for new info. Anything really, even if this whole Jeep Truck was a giant ruse for Sergios personal enjoyment.

Its like the Admins forgot about this site since they are too busy with the JLForums

The users on here have been posting most of the new content.

Yes some of us are in serious need of some new info. I actually left the forms for a bit, but ended up back reading about the JL. Even stop by the dealer sat in the JL the other day to check it out in person. Very bad idea. Waiting is even harder now. Especially since I am driving a beater XJ and trying not to have an intermediary vehicle. Hope she makes it.

I know people were all up in arms about Marchione saying “intentionally expensive”. I mean I don’t like the sound of that, but I choose to hear “extremely capable and therefore not cheap”. Hoping that is what he intended to say. Lots of folks are fretting the price, I am prepared for that, but I am not prepared for a further delays. I want some news, some updates, and I want order banks open sooner rather than later. I have been waiting since the 2005 Glatiator concept and every time it gets closer the JT gets pushed back. Mid 2019 now? Come on.

The news, leaks, and spy captures have been painfully slow. I actually stopped by my local Jeep dealer the other day on the way home from work to check out a JL Sport. Definitely a nice vehicle and the redesign is visually an improvement over the JK, but I found myself staring at it trying to picture the JT come together. It was mentioned elsewhere on here that Jeep should do a teaser campaign and I agree, but anything would be great at this point. As much as I am tired of seeing the same test mule photos ill take it as at least its confirmation its still being worked on.

At least give us a new spy shot with some of the camo "accidentally" blown off by the wind or something!

At this point I would take an officially confirmed picture from FCA showing just one lug nut.

Its almost March which means the production line for the JK will be shut down in a month and the new JT line will start getting built. This has to mean the truck's design it complete no? so why are there not any better spy photos?

How long does it typically take to retool an assemble line? I am sure there are a lot of variables but in general what is an adverage estimate?

They've said 6 months, give or take. Time for FCA to nail it down and announce it.

Other than body panel (mostly the bed) fitment, they can test everything they need to in the open using the JL. It may be that we aren’t seeing any test mules in JT form because they are hidden as JLs.

They've already done all the towing tests as well, along side the JL.
