Yea too bad for Wrangler fans cuz if it could fit they would have done it. The Charger and Challenger had the space so they got upgraded from the 5 speed to the ZF 8 speed.
Is that the reason for the JL's longer hood?

  • November 13, 2017: 2018 Wrangler JL Production Begins
2019 Wrangler JT Pickup:
  • Fall 2018: 2019 Wrangler Pickup JT Production Begins
So I'm guessing it will most likely be like this:

2018 Wrangler JL:
  • September 1, 2017: 2018 Wrangler JL Sales and Press Launch
  • October/November 2017: 2018 Wrangler JL Order Banks Open

2019 Wrangler JT:
  • September 1, 2018: 2019 Wrangler JT Sales and Press Launch
  • October/November 2018: 2019 Wrangler JT Order Banks Open
  • November 13, 2018: 2019 Wrangler JT Production Begins

Cars? A Jeep isn't a "car"
What is a Wrangler JT?

The new 2019 Wrangler pickup will be a JP model.

From the other sticky thread it looks like the JT pickup schedule could be a few months earlier than that - like production starting in the Summer? In that case it should have a longer first model year than the JL/JLU.

Lets hope so .... it would be nice to get it early. The only other thing Im worried about is them offer the diesel in the JL in 2019 (2nd year) and then holding that off on the JT till 2020 model year. If they do that it would really piss me off.

Do we even know for sure the JT will get the diesel? It would make sense but are we all just guessing and assuming here?

Wrangler JT to come
Yes, JT is scheduled to get the diesel.
Just made my weekend by confirming. If anyone at Jeep is reading - please don't jack up the price too much!
