One of the articles says it's actually more likely to be a test mule for the potential Jeep Wagoneer. Not only that, it looks way too big to be a mid-size pickup.

I think FCA will probably fit it out as both a Dakota AND Wagoneer. ALTHOUGH...I think with them bringing out the Gladiator...I think they may actually dip into the name bag and possibly bring out the old Jeep J10 Honcho name...Golden Eagle is possible too but Honcho just sounds cool I think.

Like others have said...competition makes for a better overall breed. That being said I wonder what that portents for the likes of Honda's Ridgeline? I know its the darling of the car mags...but are there enough suburbanites who want a FWD native truck with a timing belt?

One rumor is that the new Dakota is based on the Fiat Fullback

Could be why we see independent rear suspension

We’ve played leapfrog for a couple hundred miles on I40 north.
Watch when they stop, see if the tailgate drops or glides down...

Many years ago, we sold our Arizona Proving Grounds to Chrysler as we had bough Volvo and their Proving Ground in Phoenix. Flagstaff is on one of the most direct routes to Yucca Flats where this POS proving grounds is located. Likely why the sighting in Flagstaff.... Jmo...a "fix it again Tony" Fiat.

Best,
Phil
