Takeaways:

  • square headlights
  • No V6 (non-turbo) option, only the possibility of the I6 Turbo in the Ram, which isn't selling well
  • IFS
Maybe just add a sliding side door and be done with it?

I got a '23 Ram 1500 about two years ago, so will have it for a while. The more I read about new vehicles, just makes me think my next vehicle is going to be used and earlier than 2020.

Add "Ugly LED strip across the front", and of course I'm quite sure it has PHOOOOOONNE integration and lots of "technology".

This just isn't my world anymore.

Marketed to Soy boi's , Designed by Soy boi's . Know your target market , it's definitely not the folks on this forum. Chevy sold the last real K5 Blazer in 1991 , however the mid size cross dresser sells well .

What an embarrassment to have revived the Blazer name to use on that turd.

Yup , and things aren't any better in Dearborn . Slapping "Mustang" on a chunky monkey EV to make them think they bought something worth while. What a joke.

No wonder kids aren't into cars these days the way we used to be when we were younger.

For one, they're all impossible to work on anymore, and for two, most of them are ugly as sin. All the sharp lines and radical shapes. Really makes you appreciate simplicity from both a mechanical and cosmetic standpoint.
 
If they put IFS on it it's dead

That's an interesting thought. Obviously an IFS Wrangler would be "dead" to most of us here on WTJF...

but I wonder what percentage of Wrangler owners since the YJ came out even know if their Jeep has IFS or a solid axle. I have a suspicion that the percentage of Wrangler owners worldwide who don't know the difference would astound most of us here on the forum.
 
The front is horrible, the rest looks like todays JL to me.

IFS would be a disaster no doubt!

Come on now…pick any park and JKs will outnumber the rest 2 to 1. Don’t let our mutual hate for the duck community cloud your thoughts! :cool:
