I agree that thing looks sweet!!
D44/60 axles, 40's, cage, etc. from the factory!
You should see it in person, Billy! It is really wicked! Obviously they will never market something with tires that big, but it is a cool concept!

Would be easy to just build it
i was gonna say.....
1- $$$$$$$$ for replacement tires
2- whats the gearing on that? does it do 80 safely on the highway?

I've never been a Jeep fan of anykind, but the Jeep-40 Concept looks pretty sweet. I especially like the low center of gravity; with the body not being lifted up to the moon, so it could traverse sloping terrain without rolling over. In addition; being from the "factory", the entire package of components would be well engineered to work in concert with each other with high reliability. However, it definately needs a hard-shell bolt-on roof assembly to keep the greedy hands of car burglars out of the Jeep's interior when parked.
Still; as far as 4x4 concepts go, the Chinese Hummer HX/H4 concept RULES!!!
Yeah, that high reliability part... um, it's still a Jeep soooo...
You're right, a top would be nice but since it's a 'chop-top', I imagine the lack of headroom would really suck.
And I'd still take the Hurricane over all the other concepts... nothing says practical like dual Hemis...
I'm still waiting for Vdub to put this thing into production.
