Pics from an auto show in Brazil.

Pretty cool looking truck.

i think it could use some streamlining a little bit, and of course get a subdued paint scheme. I like the overall truck. With the success Toyota has had with the FJ, and continued following in the Jeep Wranglers, I don't see why they wouldn't produce the Broncos again, Same for Chevy and a full size 2 door blazer. This one appears to have a straight front axle, which is awesome!!! That in my opinion is one of the big draw backs of the FJ.

I like it and it looks good but,

Unfortunately you’ll probably have to keep dreaming if you expect it to make it to America, even if it goes into production.

For the last several years, they should have put the Super Duty front end on a (shortened?) Expedition and call it Bronco. I think the Excursion frontend was then same or similar to the Super Duty trucks of that time. I always preferred its looks over the Excursion.

YES! but they must have V-8's not high output V-6's or what not

If it goes to production, expect a couple of Eco-Boost V6 options and maybe a V8.

Price Tag ???

Ford can do whatever they want as long as Chevy does it right

[kieefer]

Several years ago a Jeep Truck was prototyped. All the rage and anticipation and we haven't seen it on our shores yet. Most likely we'll see it before the Bronco, and maybe the new Ranger.

Of course it all depends on the market.

Dream on.

Looks like a plastic nightmare to me.

Ford can do whatever they want since they don't belong to the UAW and Obama.

FIFY

Looks like an FJ imitation, without Toyota's track record for superiority. Looks cool as heck but I'm done with american car makers.

[Mr. Brooks]

Looks a lot like the FJ Cruiser. Appears to have a solid front axle though, that would be a huge plus to the offroad market.

I still like the 2004 Bronco concept styling better.

There is a Jeep truck. It is a 4 dr jeep wrangler with a 10000 option to remove the back half. Bob Frensly in Rivergate had one. It was red and they had it sitting on 33 I believe and listed for a nice cheap 50k I think is what the window said.

I love old Bronco's.

This one, not so much.

That would probably be an aftermarket conversion. AEV Brute or something along those lines. Afaik there are no factory Jeep trucks on the market.

I like this one from 2004.

Well technically these are(would be) Brazilian made. They have been making turbo diesel off road trucks for years.

[BrasilNuts]

I used to see Trollers in Manaus all the time. They looked like CJs to me, but I'm not really a Jeep guy so I'm sure there were many differences.

Ford has been making Rangers and F150s with TDs in Brazil for quite a while now.

Man! This bears some lines of the Hummer.

Or maybe a Rover Defender?

Which Ford owned in 2004.

[Mr. Brooks]

Looks more like an updated 1st Gen Bronco to me.

No, it's the JK8 and it's an official Jeep product conversion based on the JK Unlimited using a kit Jeep sells.

Wow! Didn't know that.
