AEV Brute Double Cab

[Chris Cordes]

I just passed a H3T today and I found it anything but large. Looked about the same size as the AEV.:coffeedrink:

Its actually a tad smaller eepwall:
AEV four-door JK Wrangler
wheelbase 139 inches.
Overall vehicle length 216 inches
Interior dimensions of the truck bed are 61”L x 60”W
Wrangler width 74 inches

H3T
Wheelbase 134.2
Overall Length 212.7
H3T width 75.0

THAT !!! Is flat out beautiful and as Scott Brady said- probably the most stunning and functional development in Over-landing in 10 years!
Wow.

This conversion with the needed V8 conversion (for any hauling/towing functionality) will run close to 100k. Great concept and high end special conversion, but this will not be anywhere near affordable until Jeep does this straight from the factory.

This is true but I am just glad this thing exist! It gives me a warm fuzzy feeling to know I am on the same planet as this creation.

Maybe not for the 1% but for the 20%.......unfortunately I'm in lower part of the 80%......kinda close to the bottom really. :sombrero:

Screw the Hemi... It needs a 3.0L diesel out of the 12' Grand Cherokee.

Getting cooler everytime I see it! Wish they'd paint those wheels white though! And I would like to see it with a Landy style exo-rack and RTT... just to see it.

Is it just me or does anybody else think these quad-cab short-bed trucks have too much cab and not enough truck? I wonder if they'd offer a wrangler pickup with a more useful six foot bed and a single cab?

Did you miss the JK8 kit? It was anounced as a kit you could buy from the dealer to turn your 4-door JK in to a 2-door halfcab pickup.

Yeah I did but that appears to have an even shorter bed than the quad cab Brute. Picture the extended Brute frame with that cab and a six foot bed.

Well, as with anything on the consumer market there are other models out there to fill each person's needs and desires. If nothing satisfies a person, they can build whatever they want.

If AEV can't satisfy, there are other companies that will. You can do anything with enough time and money.

If you absolutely must have 6 foot bed available from the factory, I would think a Tacoma Double Cab would be a nice option, be heck of a lot cheaper too.
Rear cab access is slightly better with the fullsize doors.

Soes anyone else think it is starting to look like a H1? Not the front clip but maybe the cap/doors.

The whole thing looks like an H3T to me.

Seems like anything with AEV in it's name is an automatic winner with the folks here.

A new photo is available from the AEV web site

I like it! Any interior shots, preferably of the rear seats? Which I would remove those and do storage.

 

[The Swiss]

Absolutely gorgeous! Add a FWC cabin and you have what I would call a retirement plan :wings:

 

[jeep-N-montero]

as the saying goes:"good, fast, and cheap- pick any two".
Awesome rig!!

It's cheap, fast, reliable, pick two.

Oh give over and indulge my Brute fantasy here! For that hefty price I would simply like to chose between that double cab with a short bed and a single cab with a long bed. :drool:
