#8 of 188 I know... by rsholland Jan 12, 2002 (7:48 am)
they would like to bring out a vehicle priced under the Wrangler. Jeep has publicly stated that. What form it takes? Who knows...   Bob

I don't know how or where I came up with the IRS thing but the supercharged four idea is actually from the Willys2 concept: http://www.jeepin.com/news/willys2.html

That thing is awesome. I wish Jeep would produce it, though with a carbon fiber body it can't be very cheap. Maybe change the body to aluminum and toss in a slightly larger engine (keep the supercharger for the low-end torque) and I would find a way to buy one, as long as they offered it in a better color. Olive drab might work.
#11 of 188 while we're wishing by anonymous02 Jan 16, 2002 (10:20 am)
I'd like to see a comeback of the Scrambler.   Basically, make a lengthened Wrangler, add a small bed, and the only change from Wrangler othewise would be to put in the V6 so it can accomodate the overdrive auto tranny (for better gas mileage and lower cruising rpms).   Better yet, make the back part (bed) out of recycled plastic to reduce cost, reduce weight, and eliminate rust!!!
#12 of 188 Actually... by rsholland Jan 20, 2002 (2:02 pm)
I'd love to see Jeep do a 4-door "life-style" pickup off the new Liberty platform. Just put a small bed in the back like that of the Explorer Sport Trac or Subaru Baja. Also include a mid-gate, and lockable fender storage compartments as per the Chevy Avalanche.   Bob
#13 of 188 huh? by anonymous02 Jan 22, 2002 (8:31 am)
A "life-style" pickup?   That's a new one.   I like the idea of the Avalanche, but have a feeling that in 2 years, these are going to be seen all over the place with plastic hanging off the sides or big ugly scars where plastic used to be. Reminds me of Pontiacs.   I do like the Explorer one, and to a lesser extent, the Dodge and Nissan ones.
#14 of 188 "Life-style" pickup... by rsholland Jan 23, 2002 (10:11 am)
is a term now used to describe pickups for outdoorsy-types: cyclists, campers, etc. It's certainly not a traditional "work" truck.   Bob

Went to the auto show in Detroit and fell in love with the Compass. The one grainy picture of it that I found online prior to the show (from it's debut a few days earlier) didn't catch my eye. But in person, it has some fantastic lines to it. It borrows cues from several of Jeeps recent concept cars so one would assume they are aiming in this direction for a new model. Time will tell. From the web scouring that I have done, "insiders" (who are these so called insiders?) say that this one is close to production. I hope they are right.
#16 of 188 A nice photo of the Compass by knightborn Jan 23, 2002 (8:38 pm)
#17 of 188 hmmmph! by anonymous02 Jan 24, 2002 (7:34 am)
It looks like that goofy Isuzu thing. (not to be confused with VW thing!)   How do you remove the doors and top?
