Concepts that Jeep will never build.

Why? Because they're too damn cool.

The pickup version of the CJ seems like a slam dunk. Can’t understand why it hasn’t come back. Can’t be that much tooling investment.

says the plant is at capacity, but seems like they could pull off more capacity somehow.

Rigs with a wide track have to stay on the pavement!

Off-road, the old narrow CJs were king because they could travel almost anywhere.

The recent “Rubicon” model is so wide that it needs a super highway. They look like fun, but they are really a trailer with a motor in it.
