JK Rubicon 2.8 CRD

I've just be advised the Rubicon will be on the early shipments, but production of all international JK's have been put of until the earliest the end of Feb. So we may not see the JK until May or even June. Oders for the US market is 50% ahead of Jeeps predictions.

up 50% can only be a good thing for australia, perhaps they hope we have the same sort of uptake..

Yep, that's right.

Our Region was telling us that the next available JK production for us was end Feb, just to back-up what Kiwi said.

I'll probably hang off fot the diesel.
I saw fuel economy specs printed somewhere, the diesel didn't look that much better than petrol (~2 litres per 100km) but I would hope it'd be a better improvement in the real world.

/wants.
I wasn't so fussed about petrol/diesel choice, then I read the power/torque figures for the petrol. Ouch. This thing needs a HEMI.
