P.S. Early on in this thread/rant, a comment was made about "discounts" on F-150s and other truck makers in their pricing. Well, as stated, I've got a couple of buddies that paid in excess of $55,000 for F-150s in '17. Don't look like too much of a discount to me. And one other buddy just paid $70,000 for a used, 7,000 mile F-250 Platinum. Not a whole lot of discount there either.
Not to mention, you don't see (or I haven't anyways) any of those models out on the trails in Moab! How anyone could compare an F-150 or Chevy 1500 to a Jeep Wrangler is beyond me.
Also, since this is the Dinghy towing forum, for the most part a full size pickup does not make a good towed. Some large diesel pushers can pull them but for the average motorhome, it's not practical or doable.
If anyone is interested, here are the details of the new 2018 JL Wranglers that will be replacing the current JK models.
