The Wagon Queen Family Truckster!

If you haven't already, read the Nat'l Lampoon story Vacation was based on. Hilarious!

It's a concept, will never see the light of day in that form.

Does it come with a factory rattle?


IWDI, if it cost +50k so would a lot of people. No way it would ever come with factory 35" tires on it like shown

Not a fan. Aside from it being ugly, so much dirt and trash would build up between those wooden panels it would drive me crazy.

Also, why would a truck with no back windows have a keypad entry on the handle?

I don't think they ever intended on producing it, just a one off vehicle.

It was in an episode of Jay Leno's Garage and they took it on some very light mountain trails and talked about the specs and stuff. Only I don't remember the specifics.

To answer the question, I like it as a whole. Don't like the colors, but that could be easily changed.

reminds me of the movie Dazed and Confused for some reason...

and it would be a cool vehicle around a beach or something.... like that one that Toyota put out a few years ago... FJ Cruiser or some shite... outside of being around a beach, it's sorta odd looking, IMO...

Dunno, I have to wait on lsunurse to bless it first - then go from there - I believe she and her SO are into off roading yeeps - and that what the Chief looks like it's for.

The styling on this concept is probably similar to what they'll use on the new Grand Wagoneer.

Good looking Wagoneer style. I've wanted a Grand Wagoneer for as long as I can remember. I know this concept will never come to fruition, but I love it.

Think it was at SEMA this year as well. Got some great feedback, maybe Jeep makes it in 20 years like the 4dr truck concept.
