Anybody have details on this toyota?

Is that a 2005+ ARB bumper? Or is there a new product out for the 2012+ tacomas?

Will the Brute be available with a turbo diesel? Also, any thoughts on having a door to access the bed from the back seat? Maybe 2 captain chairs in the back and then a door to get to the bed? Just a thought. Looks awesome!

Maybe portals under the Brute as well.

Just my THOUGHTS...AEV components/vehicles can be bought from the parts counter/sales dept at any Jeep dealership. -this includes financing.

I don't see them offering a diesel vehicle for that reason alone.

Will the Brute be available with a turbo diesel?

Nope, with pretty much 100% certainty. Big EPA no-no. Since Jeep hasnt offered a diesel motor in years and it cannot legally put an older diesel motor into a new frame. Not allowed by the EPA and a majority of states. If you have a TJ and can get your hands on a VM or the Merc motor, then, if youve got the ridiculous amount of coin to do the swap, its a possibility. There is the Merc/ Freightliner/ Sprinter motor but it depends on how that motor is classed. If its a MD or HD motor, that would be a no go too. I know the OJ 4 door JK is diesel powered but it also still runs with manufacturer plates, if Im not mistaken, giving it some leeway with the rules.

This, my friend, is one of the coolest camper to ever come to the USA. Watch out for many appearances over the next months. This is just the first prototype but it's already extremely well done.
We'll have a more detailed coverage later today.
