How cool are the 2015 Jeep concepts?

Anyone following eep? Every year they come up with wacky concepts, some of them in fact better than the production ones.

I agree with you the 1st one is my favorite by far.

I don't like the third one. It looks like Milhouse from Simpsons

As a Wrangler owner, I'm always excited to see these...just wish they'd put some into production.

This was my favorite...reminds me of an older Land Rover Defender 110.

We bought it new in March of 2012 & now have 41K miles on it. Reliability has been excellent (knock on wood), requiring only oil changes & tire rotations thus far, except for one issue.

2011 models got a huge upgrade to the interior & 2012 models got the new & much improved Pentastar 3.6L V6 (.2L smaller that before, 75 more hp, same fuel economy). The early batch of 2012s (like mine) had an issue with valve guides & seats failing resulting in compression loss...which the dealers know about & fix by replacing the left side cylinder head. Mine was replaced about 1K miles ago. It was running fine before & is running fine now. 2013+ models aren't affected.

I love it...its unstoppable in the snow & tons of fun in the warmer months too. The only 4-door convertible on the market & its offered with a manual. :manual:
