“Left Lane News”:http://www.leftlanenews.com/?p=460 is reporting that the new Jeep Wrangler JK will have a reconfigurable hard top. They are also reporting that the new Wrangler will look similar to the Gladiator concept from last year.
bq. Sources say the off-roader ?¢‚Ǩ‚Äù which will be offered in two- and four-door configurations ?¢‚Ǩ‚Äù will feature removable t-tops for the front, and a regular hardtop for the rear. It will also feature a flip-down windshield and removable doors. Recent published reports also indicate it will feature a higher ground clearance and added skid-plates. In our last report, we noted that the new Jeep would be ?¢‚Ǩ?ìconsiderably wider and longer than today?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s Wrangler, with exterior styling said to resemble that of the Jeep Gladiator concept truck unveiled in January at the Detroit auto show.?¢‚Ǩ¬ù
