The current KJ will probably end production in June or July in preperation for the switch over to the KK. The KK production line should be scheduled for August / September startup and then having first SUV's on dealer lots around middle November... The Diesel is an Option in the Grand Cherokee. I don't know if it will make a return to the Liberty |

The diesel would probably come back over here as soon as they can get it to pass emissions. |

I knew that..... I meant to say the New 08 Liberty "mule" looks MORE like a Dodge Nitro.

They are trying to make it look like a smaller commander. They are trying to bring uniformity to the product line or somethign like that. |

For the past two years DCX/Jeep has been saying that there will be a diesel option for the NEW 2008 Liberty. If it doesn’t make the 08 model, I would think 2009 would for sure follow. DCX are looking at a Mercedes diesel for the Liberty application the last I read. |

Yes that is true... but with a possible sale of Chrysler away from Mercedes Benz, that throws a huge wrench in to co-developed engine sharing. |

Please try to get some good shots of the front suspension bits for us. Try real hard, I want to see a headline about you in the news. "Man dragged by his feet after refusing to get out from underneath show car"

darn, I like the Liberty the way it looks. True, stock, it does lean towards "cute", but some minor appearance and functional bits makes it look really, really good in my opinion. I have a black freedom with a lift, brushguard, bike carrier, etc, and get compliments all the time |

"Man dragged by his feet after refusing to get out from underneath show car" lol. What parts of the suspension do you want to see? I have an idea: for the front, look under your KJ! Rear? Go find a Dodge Nitro... |
