It’ll be “hot” for about 1 year, then sales will drop off the map. Just like the CJ-8, explorer sport trax, Avealanche, Brat/Baja and every other make/model that’s tried that formula.

Quote HistoryQuoted: CA dealers maybe. Volume dealers in flyover country regularly sell jeeps at 10% below sticker. I got 1k off sticker for some FCA driveabilty incentive. And gave me 10k trade for a 2004 TJ with 140k miles on it. And threw in Dodge Lifetime Powertrain Warranty. Also put in writing that I could perform my own maintenance but had to keep a log and receipts. Lovin it so far. |

There's a rolling list/map on the JL Forums of dealers who sell for 5-8% under invoice.
$100 donation to tread lightly gets you a guaranteed 1% under invoice. |

It's going to be in an odd segment for its price. Highest towing and payload in its class but priced above s tacoma trd pro and zr2. It will be truck outmatched by the 1/2 tons. V6 with manual is nice. Hope a hemi is in the works.

I like the gray one. Looks good. I'll check them out at the dealer when they have been out for a year and the novelty has worn off.
2020 will supposedly have the diesel. That's what i am interested in. This thing needs a 392 v8 option too. |

Quote HistoryQuoted:
'people who really need a truck' Are you familiar with modern day truck sales? About 2.2 million pick up trucks have sold so far this year in the US as of Oct. Most sold are crew cabs too and not regular cab 8 foot bed work trucks, if they are even being made anymore. They are a status symbol now. SUVs are also major sellers. Wrangler is a 1/4 million a year alone. You know how many option loaded crew cab trucks I saw this year so far during hunting season with hitch carriers? Tailgates on those trucks were probably never opened.. except at the dealership to show the self lowering/closing feature. I wish this was the NuKizer 715 concept truck (modern Gladiator/J series).. but I am thinking yuppies will love this, especially if they WANT something that looks like a Wrangler, but can actually tow something.

Looks to be pretty long, but I’ll wait until I see specs before writing it off. Their test models were longer than a f150, and that simply wont do for a midsized off-road biased truck. I would hope (and was told) they improved on that a bit, so we’ll see. They will still sell either way, I think. Jeep has some very strong loyalty.
