Description: We've been hoping for Jeep to build a pickup variant of its iconic Wrangler ever since the Gladiator Concept premiered back in 2005. Despite Mopar's JK-8 kit, many have been clamoring for a ...Add Comments12
Jack HowardJan 21, 2013 If they refreshed the 4.7 and got a little more power out of it it would be great
Patrick SchalkJan 19, 2013 Well I wouldn't want the 4.7 in it. The Cummins won't fit and they wouldn't put the 6.4 Hemi in it. The new diesel would be nice too that's gonna be in the GC. But not everyone will want a diesel.
Jack HowardJan 19, 2013 They could put the diesel from the new Grand Cherokee
Jack HowardJan 19, 2013 At least the 5.7? But that's the top of the line engine for the Ram.
Patrick SchalkJan 19, 2013 I'd say at least put the 5.7 Hemi in it.
Jimmy WilliamsJan 19, 2013 Put a small Cummins I-6 in and this should sell amazingly. As awful as the compact pickup truck market is right now, it's finally the perfect time.
Tom IppolitoJan 19, 2013 I thought the reason they haven't built it is because the Toledo plant wouldn't be able to handle the new model without upgrading it in some way. I know they're barely keeping up with demand as it is.
Wayne Joseph BoreanJan 19, 2013 Jeep pickups used to be really useful in the farm, far more versatile than a full size pickup, and far more robust than the small size pickups everyone was building.
Matt PiccoloJan 19, 2013 That looks really stupid lol.
Aaron CrispJan 19, 2013 Make it! I promise I'll buy it!
William DownsJan 19, 2013 Krack he said a LR defender, that's far from a yuppy truck, defenders are monsters, but that's the only LR I would ever wanna own
Lizmary MendozaJan 19, 2013 My dad just bought one. Bright Orange. With aftermarket black rims. Looks amazing. Shit I'm jealous

Jimmy WilliamsJan 19, 2013 A) There's very little/no chance a new
Wrangler is due in '15 with sales still so high and a very recent refresh. B) I'm with Michael!
Michael PageJan 19, 2013 Wtf jeep! The wrangler/cj has always been your backbone. You had the 4 door wrangler concept in the 90's but didn't pull the trigger till '07! And it sold like crazy!(got one) Make a removable hardtop truck version with a small diesel! And MT!
Trevor BrownJan 19, 2013 Is the next-gen Wrangler really due in 2015, or is Carbuzz just making up numbers again? The YJ came out in 1987, TJ in 1997, and JK in 2007, so I'm assuming we won't see the next Wrangler until 2017.
John AtnipJan 19, 2013 I'd love to see Jeep bring back some of the more classic models like the Wagoneer, and a pickup like the Scrambler. It's such a great brand!
Joe MarasaJan 19, 2013 I actually like it, I was afraid it was going to look to "out of the box" like other car companies. But Chrysler kept it simple and practical. Might get it after paying off my Avenger.
Stas AllenJan 19, 2013 This is a good idea Chrysler! Now why aren't you doing it?
Patrick SchalkJan 19, 2013 Same here Aaron. I'd love love a crew cab Wrangler.
Aaron CrispJan 19, 2013 Idk about you guys but it gets very annoying going camping and having no place for the firewood when we take the Wranglers out! Of course we make it work but I would definitely buy a Wrangler pickup.
Derek SoanesJan 19, 2013 Yea they should put the spare on the back
Chad GermaineJan 19, 2013 Does anyone else think the drivers side mirror would be useless?
John AtnipJan 19, 2013 The point of a Jeep truck isn't so much as using it like a traditional truck, but its a niche vehicle. It's for people who want a jeep with the ability to have a bed for whatever reason. It's a great idea personally.
Jackson MichaelJan 19, 2013 It's kinda ugly but that doesn't matter at all if it works as well as expected
William DownsJan 19, 2013 The h3 pick up failed cause it was a piece of shit, its bed was useless, and the truck in general was extremly bad, was basically an over weight and ugly taho shoved onto the frame from a Chevy Colorado, doomed to fail from the start
Antonio FalsettiJan 19, 2013 I think it's perfect. Offer different cab and bed sizes so we have options. It's smaller bed then a pickup but still a full size truck.
Dale SchroederJan 19, 2013 The H3 pickup (if you can call it that) was more akin to the Honda Ridgeline. There's still a huge following for small pickups like the Ranger and S-10, and if done correctly this would sell like hotcakes.
Andy KleschickJan 19, 2013 Ok that just looks wrong. They need to look at the h3 pickup for advice and predictions of sales.

Manley CEO for a manly brand... I like it!
I'm ready for these to make a triumphant return! I'd go buy one in a heartbeat.
As soon as jeep release a truck with a Cummins engine and a manual trans I'm buying it.
And they look cool too!
