Lower Forty

Wow I'm not really a JK guy, but whata concept! Look's like it would be a great daily driver. To bad though, I doubt if "Fix It Again Tony" has the nads to put a product like that on the road. It would have to be electric. I hope that was not to politically incorrect.

This thing? I'm not to sure that I like it... But that's just me.

BIG tires though...

After having to fix my wifes 08 Rubicon's back axle 3 times, what a joke of an axle, I winder how long till he bends a shaft with those tires.
Trends come and go in Jeeps, seems the max flex trend is dyeing and it is going over to a huge tires with minimal lift trend. I see a lot of the magazines are writing about that. Could be a recession thing also. But anyway magazines need to sell subscriptions so they hype up the latest trend and thousands flock to the koolaid and drink it.
I was on one of my favorite modern jeep sites last night and some guy, who admitted to being brand new to jeeps was talking about how he needed to build a GM 14 rear axle so he would not break his. Man o man I thought you will need 37s just to clear a speed bump with that axle. But he is convinced because a magazine printed a few articles about the gm 14 inch and he has to have one.
A fool and his money

Blame it on the consumer society. If they don't change the style, you don't buy new .

Hell, I have 1ton drivetrain on every thing I drive anyway. I just got sick & tired of having to replace parts after every run. I like to be able to drive to & from, unlike all my trailer queen buddies.:driving:

Saw this at the auto show tonight. I like the Hemi V8 390 HP.

 

[Jet]

Yea, at least it's got some horsepower.
What's with the 3.8L that comes in all newer Wranglers?
An SRT8 package would be fun.

 

[dave pam]

Too bad it will NOT be a production vehicle

I would sell my wifes wrangler and trade my Tacoma in for one.
