Looks like it is actually happening! Coming in a crew cab 4 door and a 2 door variant.

Doesn't look long enough to fit a pair of motorcycles in and still close the tailgate though

Looks good, but I'm not getting my hopes up, as every time Jeep's recycled an old nameplate, the result turns out to be nothing at all like the original (see the Cherokee KL for example). Love the removable roof options and the 3.0TD engine, but wonder if they'll be doing multiple cab configurations and bed lengths?

They really need to bring back the FSJ. It would sell big time. Like the concept they had a few years back...

You can't really see it here...but the seats are awful. Like a Hawaiian floral print. They shoulda just kept it like the back, that looks alright.

Yup, when I saw the Chief, I was like, "They need to bring this back"... same with the Grand One Concept they did this year. They *did* kind of bring the Chief to the Wrangler/Wrangler Unlimited JK/JKU lineup with the Wrangler/Wrangler Unlimited Chief... white stripe on the body, the same wheels, and a white hardtop.
