Auto Blog Article Here

Nope.

Looks like they sealed all of the gaps, too.

It may be more aerodynamically backwards.
...
OMG it IS backwards! At least, the font below the car in the photo is.

Why do they even bother making a mule? Ok guys, the new model is going to look like the 1940 model. Bet you didn't see that coming.

RedDevil -- Spare tire on the front bumper, just like an old VW bus.

In all fairness they would be stupid to change much, the resale on these things is ridiculous. I swear I can buy a brand new one for less then a 3 year old one. You can hardly find even a 20 year old one for 1/2 what it was new.

A good friend bought the new JK at introduction in 2007. Four door, man trans and low options. Over 20-mpg in all situations except running down Padre Island fifty miles or more.
At 180k miles it has been almost trouble free past a couple of early warranty claims.
A highly competent vehicle given its shape and weight.
