JL Rubicon on order
Yep, and as an owner of a few 'interesting colour' Wranglers in my time, the contrast of the black on the roof (and fenders) really breaks up the monotony of just one colour. You really appreciate this when you swap from the body colour hardtop to the black soft-top.

Thanks to an inattentive teenaged BMW driver I also have contrasting front & back fenders now too, that match both tops :rock:

A good pic illustrating your point with me parked next to a Jeep budy with that very difference;

I totally agree!

If we agree on these figures in the picture
Do we expect that the new JL will differ from JK?

Do we know for sure where the Front "Jeep" logo will be placed? Or even if there will be one on the front?
Agreed....I would prefer remove from the front and relocate to the side Panel.
I agree, The Jeep logo on the front is a total departure of the "Jeep DNA" and should have never been placed there to begin with. (Yes I am being a bit sarcastic with that term and what it means here...)

If they move the logo from the grill to the hood, they should consider making it a decal like Porsche does on high end models for “weight savings.” This eliminates ugly chrome, and it won’t look funny (it looks funny in the renderings). Or they could just move the decal to the side where it would look best.

The Jeep grill is their logo. No need to add the word "Jeep" to it.

Although the grill does give the cars enough identity, there will almost undoubtably be at least 2 “Jeep” logos somewhere around the vehicle

Yeah, and the strange thing is that most of those "Jeep" brand logos will be facing the driver... who should already be aware of what they're driving... it's probably just subliminal reinforcement by FCA... or technically... Overt Brand reinforcement.

Without the logos - one could confuse it with another brand.

Now I know the video I'm attaching says "Leaked! New Ford F-150 Diesel Specs Revealed", but for a minute, they also talk about a possibility of a leaked email from someone within FCA about the dimensions of the new JL. According to their email they received about the new Jeep JL, it will be bigger than the JK. This could be a false email, but it's worth a listen.

SKIP TO THE VIDEO TIME OF 12:38 TO HEAR THE NEWS ABOUT THE JL

I really hope it's a few inches longer... I think quitw a few things would benefit from that. A little more cargo space would be a welcome addition and a slightly longer wheelbase would be nice for stability on the highway and certain off-roading scenarios. I'm thinking it would be cool if it had an LJ vibe to it. I don't want it to get anywhere near the length of the JL obviously, but 3-4 inches longer would be nice.
