Last night we were driving in on the #1 coming from Sask and we past (several times) a car hauler truck.  The interesting thing about this truck was that it was carrying 2 2007 4-door Jeep Wranglers.  Awesome looking Jeeps.  If anyone sees them getting unloaded at one of the dealerships please let me know.

We aren't going to see disel Wranglers for a couple of years I don't think.  DC is dropping the CRD from the liberty in 2007 for various reasons and until they spend the dough to emissions test a new diesel we won't see one for a while.  That's assuming that they don't/won't put the G. Cherokee diesel in there which seems unlikely.

DC is building a new small diesel engine plant in Ohio. Once that is operational, expect a flurry of DE options.

Cool!!  That definitely supports what I've been hearing.  DC aparrently dropped the Liberty diesel because the engine was coming from Italy and it was getting expensive to ship.  I was told that it was dropped until they could building them in NA.

Those won't be diesels guys :x .  Still gunna be a while in the making I'm afraid :( .  I'm betting those were just 2 doors too....4 doors seem to be a little behind the 2s.  I'm not expecting our first one for quite a while yet, maybe 4-6 wks.  If anyone sees them on the ground lemme know where eh :wink:

They definitely weren't diesels but I can say for a fact that they were 4 doors.  I have a very bad picture to prove it too.  One was even a Rubicon complete with BF Mud Terrains.

I was thinking that they might even be pre-production test units for journalists.  Probably making the rounds accross Western Canada.

Sort of on this topic...why is it called a JK?

We got the CJ, TJ, YJ, XJ. Do they actually mean anything. I heard that CJ is for civilian jeep. Possibly TJ for trail jeep? Why switch the J to the first letter now?

Me and some buddies were joking when they came out with the four door saying it was JK for "just kidding". Obviously that aint the case.
