Jeep Toys With Pickup Concept to Conquer Moab, Utah - PickupTrucks.com
Why should Jeep stay away from pickups. Jeep has a great history with pickups, and if they ever produce another, it will be a hit. Check out the J10 or Comanche, Gladiator Concept or AEV Brute. Jeep can make a great small truck. I would rather have a full size truck for any type of work duty and keep the jeeps for expensive toys and they do get expensive by the time you make them capable. I think Jeep is really on to something here. I have always supported the Gladiator concept dating back to 2005 and this latest iteration displays a modular approach to the bed offering behind the cab. Much like a commercial vehicle lineup the buyer will be able to customize they bed they prefer - conventional or with options such as those shown in this concept vehicle. I like it and think this would again set Jeep apart from the other medium size trucks like the Tacoma, Colorado/Canyon or Frontier - while NOT competing with Ram. Plus I would imagine a small diesel will be in the offing as by the time this rolls off the assembly line in 2018 GM will be well into building its diesel ZR2 - which I think is a lock. These Jeeps are not worth the money. Jeep ride is NOT terrible. Source: news.pickuptrucks.com
