I like it. It is about time. Some do not like the tire on the side but I like the look. Makes it different. It would look real nice lifted and nice tires. Just wondering what price they will come up with. Could be pricey.

I think it would look real nice with some 40s and not so much chrome

Move the spare tire, remove the chrome and make it a diesel and I'll be buying it!

I think a lot of people are burnt out on the wrangler truck idea. It has been teased and promised on the JK platform since 2005.

While it looks like it will happen, there have been no reports of where it will be built. When the reports come in of factory retooling to build the thing, then I will be a beliver.

Even so, I am still afraid that we will be underwhelmed with a penstar and poor truck capabilities OR see a truck with awesome specs, but overwhelemed a price tag reaching for the high 40s.

Guess I will stay tuned (again)

Could this be the "sheet metal" change coming in 2012... what about a new engine? Same problems, new skin.
