It's too bad they're not making the Chief concept.

Agreed on the Chief. I had it as the background on my work computer for a while. Everyone drooled over it!

I hadn't seen pictures of the interior of that vehicle before. I think I like the wood slats as much as I dislike the seats. I think they could have found something better than the flower pattern. Otherwise it's a great looking Jeep.

The Chief is so much tougher/better looking than a FJ Cruiser or a Hummer.

I know, I wish they would make it, it's WAAAAY better than the new thing they call a "Cherokee". The only thing I don't like about it is the "Hibiscus" trim, and it needs more wood trim. Make a Wagoneer version while they're at it. I do love the wooden load floor in the back!

It'd be nice if fiat did more than just dangle carrots in front of us. At least they're planning on bringing back a Jeep truck and the Wagoneer to the fold.

Im afraid they well ruin the wagoneer. I rather have them leave the classics be than to totally destroy an american icon.

It's just a name though. Wagoneer has always been the top of the line vehicle and let's be honest here, the majority of people couldn't afford them then and most likely won't be able to afford the new one either. I don't blame Jeep for going after the money again.
