No one has better record of building killer concepts people would actually buy with no intention of actually making them than Jeep does.
Ford has been talking up for years about the Bronco being a direct competitor to the wrangler. But the unreleased bronco is already known for sure to have IFS. All it would take for Jeep to keep Ford under their boot when it comes to market share is to sell a factory V8 straight axle Jeep.Comment

I'd buy this (J-6 concept):
. . . or possibly a J8, but the Glad He Ate Her is just too damned long.
I may eventually buy a Glad, but I would've already bought a J6.

But there’s a lot of country I don’t have my finger on the pulse of. I might be surprised to find that the rest of the country I don’t travel to, would consider a wrangler the same as any other suv.Comment

One of us might be surprised, and it might be me. I live in the mountains of Colorado and spend all my time running around on 2 tracks in the Southwest where people buy new Jeeps, put a lift tires and light bars on them. I spent 4 days for the 4th of July Above 10,000 feet mine hopping. Jeeps (new ones JK/JL’s)seemed out number all other mfgs combined by 2:1. Everyone around here at least thinks they are wheelers that picked a wrangler specifically for its off-road ability.
