Nice! We bought the wife a left over '14 JKU last summer. Great little Jeep (it's actually bigger than my Cherokee). I'll be dumping my Cummins soon and hopefully by the time I get back from this deployment the new Wrangler pickup will be out and hopefully with a diesel option.

2017 according to Jeep. But not sure if thats 2017 model year, or announced, and then be a 2018 model. But I am super excited about it.

I'd be really interested to see the new Jeep truck, and drive it.
One thing that has got my attention on this JK since it's a 6spd is the "hill start assist mode" While starting on a hill it appears that the Jeep will hold the brakes on so you don't roll back. Definitely does not have the low end grunt of the 258 but the fuel mileage more than makes up for it.

You know it's bad when your car is on the EPA's 10 most wanted list!

Have you seen the real photos of it? It's a Feep. They took the worst body designs of the late model Trailhawk and Fiat Panda smooshed together.

No photos have been released yet. All the photos on the net are one off custom concept creations. They're saying it will be on a stretched JL chassis (Next Generation Wrangler for 2017) so I'm assuming it will be fairly Wrangler-esque. Hopefully available in an extended cab or 4 door and hopefully the bed isn't completely useless. I'd really like to see a diesel model with a 6 speed manual but I'm not holding my breath on any of this.

Nothing has been released. We have no idea what the next wrangler will look like even. The most recent truck concepts are the Nukiser and the J12 concept. Both of which are wrangler based (On the current JK), which the new one will be based on the next gen Wrangler.
BTW: There is no Trailhawk model, its just a trim level available on several Jeep models.
