Re: New Wrangler?
Australia and NZ FCA works typical model specs for the market and then order them. Sometimes it has more features, but if you want certain things then you can order a factory build. You'll probably wait for 4-6 months for it to be built and brought here.

Re: New Wrangler?
You'll see it in NZ when it's officially released. Typically, Wranglers run in 10 year cycles for major changes. 1987, 1997 and 2007 were the last three changeovers between YJ, TJ and JK. New year models hit US dealerships in end September/October (2017 model could hit dealerships in October 2016), ...

Re: JEEP WRANGLER TRAILCAT
Jeep concepts are always great, it's a question of which one will become a reality (I.e. commercially viable). I think a Grand Cherokee with Hellcat engine is more easily the commercial winner. But then now AEV is becoming more involved, who knows a limited edition Brute with Hellcat can happen. Won...

6.2l Supercharged Hellcat engine... 707hp in a Wrangler would be a beast even if it comes out in limited quantities.

Re: New to the forum
Send a message to the admin for becoming a vendor.
A couple of practical questions though. Are you based in US (I suspect you are). How are you proposing to ship items half way across the world (I am assuming you did research where NZ is before posting your advertorial).

You can talk to DHL Express, they would be more reasonable than FedEx or UPS.

I can say, never had that problem myself. Generally vendors and eBay are very helpful. Bad rating hurts their business.

Re: US Special Deliveries on Wrangler
Your biggest issue would be LHD vs RHD on US imports. Brute is done by AEV, which works closely with Jeep on concept and normal vehicle development. The ones in NZ imported recently are factory RHDs, not conversions. As for the look you are referring to, to each their own. I'm not a fan of all that ...

Re: Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Brute Ute 3.6 2016
Personally, I'm a not looking for a lift that high or tyres that big.
Mine being a short wheelbase, going from factory 32s to 33s with a 50-60mm suspension lift is more than adequate.
