No one knows right now, it's all speculation just like what diesel will end up in the wrangler for the US and when.

thats pretty cool, Looks like the Jeep Wrangler Brute that AEV (i think it was AEV) put out a few years ago... obviously a modified TJ, but do a google search for the Jeep Gladiator, and thats what the JK version Jeep pickup will look like if they ever make it, i think it would be a hit, and being the the JK frame is so much beefier than the older model wranglers, along with better axles, and the longer wheel base... all they really need to do is drop a 5.7 hemi in it and they have yet another bad ass vehicle... Or, an SRT 10 version of the JK would be sweet too, could you imagine having 500+ HP Viper motor under the hood the JK, Man that would be my wildest dream come true!

Yup, the Gladiator was probably the closest thing to one...



...but, it's not slated to be built :sad:

Can we make one of the pick up threads a sticky? Seems like there is a new thread on the topic every 2 weeks.
