M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E about sums up this gawkey looking p.o.s. From the back it looks much like an Aztec...the gas tank hangs down below the driver's seat..(duhh) ..it has the same 2 cast iron tuna cans hanging on the rear end as that other mistake, the liberty has...there area 2 tapered sled runners...or; something...running from the "axle" (huh?) to the rear bumper area....maybe they're to help the vehicle slide down rocks or something? The over-all styling is a mish-mash; of bl0bs and slabs and bumps that have absolutely no continuity. In short, it makes AMC's spiffy ZJ design look even more spectacular. Jeep, and its concept, is dead..except for AMC's Wrangler design which is still more or less intact, except for that goofy, ill-fitting dash that was heisted from another vehicle. Alas, Jeep is now a foreign vehicle, and foreign it certainly looks. Krysler said its goal is to make "Jeeps" more car-like. They're;succeeding. As I've said before, Chrysler does not know what a jeep is, and what a jeep is for. And it certainly shows. I'm guessing this vehicle will have wide appeal among the intelliduncia.
