Well, that's not entirely correct. You could bring it in but then you would have to bring it up to standard and prove that it meets those standards (i.e., emissions testing, crash testing, etc.). It is not economically feasible unless you've got $1M to blow.]]>Sep 28th 2007 11:17AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/28/more-details-on-the-not-for-us-jeep-j8/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/28/more-details-on-the-not-for-us-jeep-j8/Sep 28th 2007 11:20AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/28/more-details-on-the-not-for-us-jeep-j8/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/28/more-details-on-the-not-for-us-jeep-j8/Sep 28th 2007 4:54PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/28/more-details-on-the-not-for-us-jeep-j8/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/28/more-details-on-the-not-for-us-jeep-j8/Sep 28th 2007 12:38PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/28/more-details-on-the-not-for-us-jeep-j8/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/28/more-details-on-the-not-for-us-jeep-j8/>> Keep the faith folks. A U.S.-acceptable version of the J8 could still make it to your local Jeep dealership in the not-to-distant future. Remember, it ain't over 'till it's over, the fat lady sings and the lights are turned out.

The clock is still ticking, I don't hear anyone and the lights are still on!

Maybe a diesel one day soon, maybe a pickup truck version but even those would probably not last on the market too long.

These are capable and awesome vehicles.
I would love one.
However, to a huge segment of their customers these are fashion accessories.
Much like the capable road hugging MX5 is.]]>Sep 28th 2007 2:01PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/28/more-details-on-the-not-for-us-jeep-j8/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/28/more-details-on-the-not-for-us-jeep-j8/Sep 28th 2007 4:12PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/28/more-details-on-the-not-for-us-jeep-j8/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/28/more-details-on-the-not-for-us-jeep-j8/Sep 28th 2007 8:08PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/28/more-details-on-the-not-for-us-jeep-j8/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/28/more-details-on-the-not-for-us-jeep-j8/Sep 29th 2007 10:10AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/28/more-details-on-the-not-for-us-jeep-j8/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/09/28/more-details-on-the-not-for-us-jeep-j8/
I'm angry at Jeep. I'm a Jeep faithful who has been teased by truck concepts for years. Had one come to market I'd own it today.
Instead, I traded in my Cherokee for a Tacoma because I got tired of waiting and had little faith a truck would ever be built.

One more thing, if the Jeep brand is so closely linked to the great outdoors and the exploring of it, why don't they have a clean, efficient diesel engine in it? You could travel farther and be more environmentally responsible.
I just don't see where they're coming from anymore...]]>Sep 30th 2007 8:41AM
