'07 Jeep XJ?
This was spotted in China; is it the first glimpse of a future Jeep? Not exactly. It's a Jeep in production over there, but it's not anything newsworthy, at least for them. DaimlerChrysler has a licensing deal with Beijing Motor to make vehicles (in exchange for royalties), and with that comes molds, production parts, and anything else needed to build a vehicle. Problem is, the assembly line appears to be run by a bunch of drunken monkeys that pull whatever production pieces they like to Frankenstein a vehicle. While this one is predominantly an XJ, you'll also spot Durango taillights and a WK grille. And the monkeys in charge of naming the mutant Jeeps have no concept of what a 2500 truck would mean here; in other words, that's not a 3/4-ton Jeep.( article, pic/words are from JP magazine)

'05 was the last year for the XJ in China, according to a Wiki article i read a couple days ago, and that's just a Chinese XJ

I like it, I'll take one, any news what it costs?

Also I believe that it is called the 2500 because it has a 2.5L 4-cyl engine in it from what I have read, not that it is a 3/4-ton.

See the article here:
http://www.chinacartimes.com/2007/02/26 ... 100000rmb/

The WJ Grand Cherokee is marketed in China as the 4000 and 4700 with (suprise) 4.0L and 4.7L engines, respectively.

i have always liked those. especially that lifted silver one! or that burgundy lifted one. that stinks that they didnt make those in the US. that also stinks that someone on that thread said the build quality isnt that great.
