Will the Jeep Truck come back what do you think.
« on: August 24, 2011, 08:25:28 AM »
 The other day the last Dakota was built and nothing has been introduced to replace it.

Fiat and Jeep presidents have hinted at a Jeep truck. I read in a article that the Gladiator Concept truck got a new paint job some time ago and now recently had the concepts IL4 Diesel replaced by the V6 gas and made more DOT friendly.   

I think it is coming, with JKs success and the small/mid truck market growing so fast Chrysler needs something. I hope they just call it a JT and have a Gladiator, and Comanche trim packages. Not some stupid name like they did changing the 02 Cherokee to Liberty at the last minute and still call it a Cherokee for the rest of the world.

What do you guys think? Jeep truck coming and would you consider it.

I followed a rainbow out to a garage and found a leprichaun. The rainbow ended in a potted cactus on his porch, but there was no gold :(

 I am thinking they might be coming out with a min truck. I have also read that VW is talking about bring thing there smaller trucks to north America. the Dakota replacement better have a frame if it wants to take on the Tacoma.
When it comes to trucks you need to remember that Alberta is the odd ball for truck sales, for the rest of the country most want the smaller trucks.
