Jeep green metallic would be cool.

Date of production for the 2008 Liberty is wrong.

I wonder if the " Load ’n Go rear cargo slide out system " would be able to adapt to our current models.
I didn't see anything about revised LBJ's.

Hill descent would be nice since 4low no longer holds you back like it should. I guess it uses the brakes so it kinda stupid. Or maybe they use engine braking?

Descent

I drove a 2004 F-250 that had something like that. Basically, when you took it out of overdrive and then tapped the brakes, it downshifted REALLY hard. I hated it.

I wish they would keep everything as simple as possible. I like my lack of traction control, antilock brakes and descent assist. Give the driver some credit.

Do you think that it is still gonna have the Front D30a, since Dana went bankrupt?

Oh right... it's got to be July 2007! I'll edit it... LOL

Can you get us some concept photos/ drawings? You have sources I know! \/

 

[Marlon_JB2]

Can't get you any drawings, but I can give you a clue.

Mini Commander.

Expect spy shots soon.

sweet marlon waiting patiently


do you know if the export ones will have a diesel?????

 

[Marlon_JB2]

Not having one would be a terrible mistake. #-o

 

[-=JoN=-]

im pretty sure the export one would have diesel...it's a larger market outside the US for that engine....

 

[2003KJ]

So they're getting rid of the rene?...that *****!

 

[jeepmed]

Makes mine worth more.

 

[-=JoN=-]

So they're getting rid of the rene?...that *****!

seems like just for the remainder of the 07's

probably will be redone in the the 08's....

maybe somwhere along the line of the Rubi's

all we can do is hope...

 

[Jaysus]

I am pretty sure that the Rene option has always been somewhat limited throughout Jeep's history, making an appearence here and there type of thing. It will show up again... maybe on the Patriot, but I am sure it will be back - haha!
