    I'm pleasantly surprised by this thread. I expected (entirely because this is the 3rd gen forum on this site) a bunch of 'hell yeah its gonna be better than the 3rd gen, my kid's hotwheels are better!'.

    I guess we can all at least agree that any Tacoma > any (stock) Jeep

    I would be interested in a Manual, but if the engine has enough Torque and the ECU is programmed properly then the 8 Speed Auto should be ok

    I saw one of these Jeep trucks about a month ago driving around in Pasadena, offroad practicality aside it was hideous and doesn't hold a candle to the Tacoma styling-wise (or any other truck for that matter).

    It will probably look better come production time.

    Granted it will be pricey as hell.

    Kinda looks like a water downed H1.

    Are you kidding? it's a Chrysler product.... junk. My daughter keeps telling me how she's gonna buy a Jeep when she graduates college. I told her as long as it's with her dime and not mine.

    Probably not, but the howling holes, failing diffs, low transmission fluid, lack of power seats and disc brakes, kazoo windshield noises and stalling CPS's probably will......:D:D:D
