    Is that the reason for the JL's longer hood?

    • October/November 2017: 2018 Wrangler JL Order Banks Open
    • November 13, 2017: 2018 Wrangler JL Production Begins
    2019 Wrangler JT:
    • September 1, 2018: 2019 Wrangler JT Sales and Press Launch
    • October/November 2018: 2019 Wrangler JT Order Banks Open

    What is a Wrangler JT?

    The new 2019 Wrangler pickup will be a JP model.

    Milous states it's a JP model. What is your source?

    If I posted "JP" somewhere, that was a typo. "JT" it is.

    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?

    Great info thx for keeping it up to date. I saw elsewhere that JT is estimated for Oct 1st. Is this true? Fall goes all the way to December so hoping the earlier date is correct.

    If production of JT pickup truck starts in the Fall and retooling starts 3/31/18 (as stated in the other sticky thread) that means retooling the line for the JT will take at least 6 months, maybe longer.

    The 2 door JL has been spied before. The first time was in June -- see spy photos @ http://www.jlwranglerforums.com/for...-8-speed-auto-and-other-details-confirmed.97/

    That JL prototype provided the first visual confirmation of the new 8 speed automatic transmission.

    I know it's because of production capacity issue that pickup is starting later but it's also a good marketing strategy to hash out any problems with the JL and JLU first. The pickup model is already going to be a first time model so it'll already have its own unique teething issues. This way they limit the problems it has which is better for marketing and launching a whole new model.
