I just read that they might be making it "low cost" using Swift parts or something like that, I hope they don't make it weaker than it already is!

I know that glass jimny is ugly but look at those approach and departure angles!

I hope the new one is solid axles both ends!

if by some fluke they do keep it solid axle, let hope they a) put some real effort into the suspension this time around. and b) dont make it as friken ugly as the last one.

Also, finally give one enough power and don't make the driveline out of glass.

More than anything, I wish for them to stick a direct injection 2 stroke in it but I think the chance of that happening is less than 5387576357:1. :cry:
