GirsMJ86 Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 has anyone seen the commander jeep truck that was in this months Jp mag? its a complete computer generated thing made out of commander pics but it looks sweet. :shock: but i think that the gladiator concept is awesome. if they make that thing and it doesnt sway too far from the concept I'm all over one of those. :D but wasnt that rescue pretty cool too with how big and high it sat just stock?!
yj2mj Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 If they bring out the Rescue or the Gladiator, I'll will be first in line with my deposit. I haven't seen the concept you are talking about though.
pingpong Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 I really doubt Daimler is going to be coming out with anymore trucks do to the fact that it would have to compete with its own trucks that are Dodge. This is why Dodge killed the MJ back in the early 90's was cause it was competing with the Dakota line-up. I would also slap my deposit down on the gladiator, especially if it came with a diesel.

ROADLESS Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 Yea, there nice, but just think about how much they will cost and forget about working on em yourself. Oh well, as the saying goes, if you can afford to spend that much, you can pay someone else to fix em. :shock:

GirsMJ86 Posted March 22, 2006 Author Posted March 22, 2006 ok and i know not many ppl are big on the commander but lets be glad it doesnt look like its concept. :shock: Image Not Found ill scan the pickup commander pics and post em up here too.
GirsMJ86 Posted March 23, 2006 Author Posted March 23, 2006 and here is the commander pickup i was talkin bout. its not by chrysler but it is still cool and is a good idea for them to take it and make it. Image Not Found

GirsMJ86 Posted March 23, 2006 Author Posted March 23, 2006 I don't care what they cost, sign me up for one of each! NOW THATS THE WAY TO DO IT RIGHT THERE!!:lol: if only it could happen.
ComancheKid45 Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Make that Truck a Single cab Shortbed and it might be prety cool.....Jeep needs a New Truck 8)
Pete M Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 What Jeep *needs* to do is to break out the old blueprints and build me a brand new MJ made from all stainless steel. Stupid rust. :cry: Jeep on! --Pete

Stupid rust. :cry: Jeep on! --Pete that sounds like a job for DMC. which i know this is way out of this subject matter at all but they actually had blueprints for a stainless steel pickup. now too bad they got shut down before he got a chance to make it. but i was actually thinkin about makin an mj out of stainless if i ever get xtremly rich.
pingpong Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 That pic you just posted of it looks like a sic and twisted mix of an XJ. WJ, and a dodge dakota... definately not what I would buy Patrick
yj2mj Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 I'd have to pass on that Commander-looking truck, but bring on the Gladiator and Rescue. I'm selling my PSD, and I think the Rescue would be the perfect towrig for me.
GirsMJ86 Posted March 24, 2006 Author Posted March 24, 2006 yea the rescue would be a great tow rig and off road vehicle. too bad it isnt getting made. but the gladiator on the other hand is the next jeep ill buy besides more MJs.

Jeff-B Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 There's the difference between Michigan and Georgia. They use salt on the roads in winter here in NY, do they use it in Michigan?
Pete M Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 Do we have salt? The Detroit area is where New York gets its salt. We sit atop the great salt dome, the largest supply of rock salt in the nation, if not the world. And since we supply it, it's cheapest here and they tend to be way too liberal with it. :( Jeep on! --Pete
88swampedmj Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 i think the comander truck should be 2 door only....
yj2mj Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 I might would take the commander truck instead of the rescue if they'de put it on a 1 ton frame. Who do I make the check to?
barnygeroell Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 at least for europe the commander is build in Austria and the pics are out cost will be about 58k Euro´s for the 5,7 l Hemi. si about the same amount in Us $ available at summer 2006
Jeff-B Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 For me it wouldn't really have to be a 4-door, but an extended cab would be nice. Maybe something like the little suicide doors on the full size Chevy/GMC line.
barnygeroell Posted April 14, 2006 Posted April 14, 2006 just some pics i did get the new commander doing some trailfun ^^ http://upload4.postimage.org/168580/200 ...

DirtyComanche Posted April 14, 2006 Posted April 14, 2006 Got to give him credit for taking that thing out... I thought I was being reckless when I wheeled my mom's 04 WJ.
87manche Posted April 14, 2006 Posted April 14, 2006 yeah, that takes som balls to go wheel a $30K Jeep. Rock on. I'll throw up the horns for that. \m/
