Sorry Joe, you know I can't shut up about anything.

I may be reading too much into this, but I'd say the Scrambler being selected to represent the 80's rather than the XJ Cherokee, speaks volumes about what direction Jeep is going with a new Pickup!epper:

Yay!!!

You know, if Chrysler had any business sense at all, they would release that background as wallpaper. I mean real wall paper like a person could use in a garage of game room.

I like how, of all the the 70th Anniversary models they list, the picture of the Patriot Latitude X is the ONLY one with dirt on the tires.

I still don't understand why the Anniversary edition is more $, why should I pay more for a vehicle to advertise for Jeep??

You obviously don't plan to keep it forever like a true Jeep collector and brand loyalist. I know I think it is cool when I get in my parent's Commander and it says 65th Anniversary edition. If you won't get that little warm fuzzy every time you drive, the anniversary edition probably isn't the vehicle for you.

I would enjoy it I'm sure, I just think that they should give something for the customers that buy one, a little "something something" you know. After all without us, they would never make it 70 years.

I'd settle for a customer loyalty discount.

Or a "well buy back the 2011 non anniversary edition you just bought" rebate...
