    You're welcome. I think a lot of people are going to be very excited about this. There's a space in my driveway for a Wrangler pickup, that's for sure!

    I'd have to see it in person.

    I've seen many of the AEV conversions up close, they are very nice. Of course, a production Wrangler may not look quite the same, but if it's anything remotely like what AEV does, it'll be a hit.

    Finances do not dictate what I drive.. My 1st gen is immaculate with 51,000 miles If I wanted a new vehicle I would buy one and it would not be a Chrysler product.

    We haven't seen the next-gen Wrangler yet. If for example it gets IFS, then the gap between the Wrangler and Tacoma narrows further, and you'd be dealing with Jeep/Fiat reliability.

    What do you think would be the minimum length bed for it to have to be really useful for things like dirt bikes, ATVs, and so on? Or just for use as a pickup in general? Just curious.

    I won't even consider a truck with a less than 6' box. I can close the tailgate behind my quad or my street bike.
