Default Army Jeep?

No that looks alot better, miss the 4.0 though. I would buy that if it had a 4.7 atleast.

I liked the Gladiator also, but the extended cab and one piece roof make me want to run the other way. Acrewcab SUT configuration (like the hummer H1) would be better. I like the new concept since its a regular cab and it could mean a return of the 2-door unlimited. Also, like the scrambler you could potentially have 2 configurations--full cab with rear seat or pickup all in one rig.

Here's a company that's been doing the same thing for awhile, as well as installing HEMI engines in the little buggers. http://www.aev-conversions.com/

Ive seen the AEV version, they are pretty sharp. Still theyre not something thats readily available, since Ive never seen one in the flesh before...

AEV have been doing TJ based trucks though, this is a JK based truck. I love it!

I'd buy one if they'd put a v-8, a winch and some 35's on it, otherwise I think AEV wins this competition

Why should the manufacturer do all of that when the majority of people who buy Jeeps customize on their own anyway.The v-8 is fine, but 35's is a little much!
