I like it. Looks a bit like a rock crawler.
I'm thinking it has something to do with meeting side impact standards in the coming years. |

I would prefer they just put a V8 in a TJ and Dynatrac 60s under it, as OEM.
But wait, they are Chrysler engineers, they have to fuck everything up as bad as they can, and have the aftermarket fix it. |

As a Wrangler owner, that makes me want to puke. It looks like a little, bitch city car that some trashy European company would make for the streets of France. Does anyone have any detailed info on this design? |

Good guess, actually it's a stretched TJ with a custom bed. The engine is pirated from a Grand Cherokee. Probaly easier. You can also get a TJ sport, Sahara, or Rubicon.
Since it's custom, you can probaly order how you like it. I'd go for: Dual Dana 60s Dual Air Lockers Front/Rear winches Manual tranny. I'd go for a diesel, but i'd bet that would really jack up the cost. |

I have my doubts... This is an enthusiasts vehicle, hence it won't have mass purchasing appeal unless they dumb it down. That's way too much rolling stock for the 99% of buyers who will stick to the road. It's just looks too no-compromise to make it into production. |

Looks better than the Liberty.
Rough calculations... approach angle= 70 degrees break over angle= 142 degrees departure angle= 55 degrees. As shown, if geared right, it would make one hell of a rock crawler. |

a good 4X for the market would be an suv that costs less than 28 grand new, 31 inch tires with room for 33's easily, solid axles, full frame, skid plates, lots of ground clearance, approach and depart angles very steep, real bumpers, tow hooks, fornt and back, reciever in front and back, low overall height, 300 hp, lockers in front and back, power steering, electric wench, green, black wheels, no fancy interior, and it is allowed to ride like a lumber wagon, no power anything, just a plain ole am/fm radio, no air, easy acess to the engine to work on, and a manual trans, 410 gears, and a really low ratio transfer case, and full time 4X
