Oh, boy, did they *&^^&* that Jeep up! I thought it was ugly before and thought it was going to look better after this redesign. Unfortunately everyone is right; it's a Nitro. BAD JOB JEEP! I think the designs used to set Jeep apart. I mean, sure some models are based on other Chrysler vehicles, but body wise all the Jeeps were unique. Not no more. What do you guys think?!?!

unsure

I'll have to wait and see the end result in person, how it does off-road and if the aftermarket steps up to support it. I think it may have potential and I'm really trying to keep an open mind (sorta like I did with the KJ when I first saw it). Never under-estimate the under-dog.

That said, I really don't like the direction Jeep has been heading and I truely hope the new management returns Jeep to its roots. I want the Jeep name to become synonymous with rugged capability again!

You can go to www.jeep.com to view the new 08 Liberty. The Limited comes with 17” rims or an optional 18” rim. It appears to be very similar to our current Liberty supporting the same motor, same tow rating, and other features and specifications. Overall, I like it. :D I would have to agree, the aftermarket will either make or break its “hardcore” off-road potentials and markets. :twisted: :shock: :shock: :twisted: If I were to make my predictions ………………………I would say that Marty better get ready…………………‘cause these new Liberty's are going to sell like HOTCAKES! :wink: The KK seems to be a nice trade in for those who are looking to swap out their current KJ for a new KK. I think you’ll start seeing several individuals on this forum start making the swap. I personally LOVE the KJ and believe that the KK will be just as popular. Time will tell! :idea:

Seen it, sat in it, Front cabin is nice, and rear cargo area was bigger. The good stopped there. Getting in the rear seat area was cramped at best. Everybody left scuff marks from their shoes on the pillar and the door panel.
