JT CAD render:

Gives you a good idea of what the bed will be like.

Thats an artists concept, the actual truck is the above CAD file. Which is a fair bit different than the photoshop job above.

Either way, they both look like crap.       Two too many doors.

LOL ya, but its what sells, its also part of what killed the MJ when it died.

 

I got a coworker who just had his first kid and will be selling his TJ to pickup a 4 door diesel colorado. If the wrangler truck was out already and had a diesel option he would get it. Heck if the truck was out he might get it.

Ya, understand you gotta do what you gotta do. But that thing is really butt ugly man. I have a 15 JKU (the wifey's) and she loves it. She needs 4-DR to haul the grand kids around and loves her Wrangler. I showed her a pic of what the JT should look like, and another pic of the new JLU, and it was no contest. She hates the JT more than I do. At least next year we'll have some interesting powertrain choices.

Most people might hate this more, but what would really make a practical vehicle is a forward control Jeep again. Same short wheelbase(potentially) with just as much interior room and a giant bed:

 

 

 

I'm also into old Volkswagens, got my fiancee to agree to purchase a VW T3 syncro doka to use as transportation around Europe for our honey moon and then ship back to the US:

 

I just wish the new JT shoved the cab further forward to keep the wheelbase shorter and the bed longer.

 

Looks like I just need one of these:

My sentiment exactly.

But SirSam, I agree with the beauty of the cab-over engine bay / huge bed dimensions. I say we "Halecki" that jeep prototype.
