Jeep
won't be redesigning the Wrangler again until either 2017 or 2018, but when
that time comes, Jeep may follow in the footsteps of what Ford recently did
with its F-150. That's right, Jeep could be turning to an aluminum body for the
next generation of Jeep Wranglers. Aluminum has considerably lighter weight
than steel, but it costs more. Even if Jeep does make the rumored changeover to
aluminum, the body-on-frame design would remain; this will surely make the most
enthusiastic of off-roaders happy. Depending on the model, the current Jeep
Wrangler weighs in at a minimum of 3,760 pounds upwards to a max weight of
4,340. But the introduction of aluminum would result in a body weight much less
than that range, which would in turn provide a notable improvement in the gas
mileage the Wrangler could achieve. The current Wrangler's combined EPA mileage
hovers around 18 mpg. There is no word, however, on the status of the future
generation of Jeep Wranglers' solid axles and its 6-cylinder engine.
Almost all these cars are enormously expensive and a common man cannot even dream about buying one of these cars. Cadillac Escalade Rental Miami

Although aluminum weighs far less than steel, it is more expensive. The most ardent off-road dating photographer nyc enthusiasts will undoubtedly be pleased that Jeep will stick with the body-on-frame construction even if it does make the rumored switch to aluminum.
