2017 Jeep Wrangler

Anyone waiting to possibly get the 2017
Jeep Wrangler ?
Think it will have hydroformed steel frame or lots of aluminum components?
And do you think they'll do a fixed hard-top ?

Planning on picking up a new 2016 Rubicon Unlimited in the next few months. Not interested in waiting for the redesign... it'll take the aftermarket a year to catch up and even longer to work the bugs out of aftermarket upgrades. The current JK is well supported in the aftermarket and there are lots of options that work extremely well.

i've thought about getting one of these many times mostly because i romanticize about the old cj7 i had as a teenager.

then i realize that i will likely never go off the road with it so that leaves performance, looks, and speed on the street. i still like the looks but there might be better alternatives for the others.
