Jeep Truck Spy Pictures

Post by 04Ram2500Hemi » Wed Jul 20, 2016 4:33 pm

Looks like we finally have some Jeep Truck Spy Pictures: http://www.autoblog.com/2016/07/20/2019 ... de-3994342

I'm excited to see the final product, and I wonder how this will effect AEV's sales of the Brute?

That thing appears to be huge! I've been waiting for a new Jeep pickup for years, but I'll think I'll keep the Power Wagon.

one of the most intriguing things about the jeep truck for me is the aftermarket. There is so much support for the JKs and the PW barely has anything...I like that I have more than one slider option. Keeps vendors innovative and competitively priced

Wonder what the wheel base is on that? If it's around 140". It's too big. I'll keep my PW. If they make one around 115" to 120". I might think about it.

A 2 door model would be nice. Even something like this 9 foot bed!:

That's a great looking truck.
The FC, that is. The other, not so much. It looks like an SUV that some Billy Bob stuck a box to the rear and thought he was clever.

Yup, they need to keep the wheelbase the same as the unlimited 4 door wrangler but have it two door with a bed. Would be the perfect trapping/hunting vehicle. Basically a new 2 door Scrambler. :D

I only do what the majority of the 4 voices in my head tell me to. In most cases, I ignore two of them because one doesn't speak English, and I suspect the other is talking to someone else.

If you look at the truck bed closely it almost looks like a Ram truck bed. The rear fenders don't match the front fenders, and the tire isn't centered in the wheel well. I'm guessing they are just testing it with a random truck bed at this point.

Yeah, as of right now, in that pic, it looks hideous. I would MUCH rather have this any day & twice on Sunday: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8FQGWmxqio The Mighty FC Concept on 40's.

JEEP---Are you listening ??? It would be simple to make. It is all 4 door Jeep basically. Except the bed, portals & suspension. Frame, engine, cab is jeep.

Yea i thought this was more obvious to everyone else. Thats not going to be the bed of the jeep truck, its clearly a ram short box set on the new frame. No way thats final form. I think the jeep truck is going to be sweet. I think Jeep does listen to the masses, look at all of their awesome concepts :thppt:

It may be cool in the end ??? But everyone SUCKS with their concept vehicles. Anyone who owns a PW would be interested in the FC on 40's. Just for the folding side beds & utility of it, if nothing else. A 9' bed with a shorter WB than a PW !!! Why does it take 40 years to get a Mfg to make what people want ? Still, no diesel Wrangler Rubicon. Still no portal axles. Still no reg cab short bed PW. They tease you & thats about it. I have written the big 3 MANY times over the years. Not one response, ever. I wrote Toyota once & they actually called me. They are too disconnected to REALLY know what people want. Even if they flat out said no, at least they took the time. They just ignore us, yet think somehow they have a grasp of what we want. :doh:

No, I saw that it is a Ram bed. It's the cab shape and proportions that bother me. I don't see a way to make it look right with a bed out back. Just my thoughts.
