Not Jeep related, but I know a few people are interested.

So that means 30k for a base diesel?

At least we don't have to buy a high end just to get the diesel option like the JGC. Myself, I like the Outdoorsman package with the LT tires.

It's available only in the reg cab + 8' bed, the quad cab + 6'4 bed, crew cab + 5'7 bed (all on 140" frame), and crew cab + 6'4 bed (149" frame).
I don't think you can get the outdoorsman package on the diesel, the lowest model one i've seen is an SLT.

Don't know if I can ever trust the engineering of a VM product again. What will it be in 4-5 years, rocker arms, turbos, bearings, valve train???? Any guesses?

All of the above.

Bad noises = REALLY bad things.

"head gaskets" Or really, TTY head bolts? I hope that they at least put hardened washers in there....

I am personally satisfied that part of the overall wear problem is the oil DC specified, i.e. 0w-40,
another part of the problem is the EGR system designed for the US market,
and the final part of the problem is the lack of a bypass filtration system.

Bypass filtration can overcome the soot loading problem, but it does add complexity to the system.
