First drive in the all new AEV J8 MILSPEC

[and2244rew]

I've watched this video at least 20 times but it seems like this is never going to be sold to the American public. :(

[bordenwesley]

Because this is a "kit car," would one be able to put in the Powerstroke 6.7l V8 (400 hp and 800 ft/lbsof torque) with Ford's 6R140 transmission? If so, then this car would be unbeatable and unrivaled by anything else on the market!

[Bitba5000]

seems like a terrible location for an intake right on the hood. what if water goes above the hood?, like it often does

[MindanaoPh]

Does the AEV produce this particular mil spec truck for 2012?

[cdawg4391]

chain or gear driven transfer case?

[REvOKeTheHAvOK]

thats sick what does it run 60 grand ill take 2

[iceurmom]

Hahah, the voice crack at 0:23

[Bluejetmk4]

They aren't cheap, from what I've heard they're 40k +

[mixflip]

So whats the ballpark price on a basic setup like this?

[Jesus45U]

Interestingly, here in Denmark where I live, you can buy two types of fuel all over Denmark ... Diesel and 95 Octane Unleaded Petrol. you may be able to buy other stuff, like Bio Diesel as well, but Diesel and 95 Octane is everywhere.

[statewest]

We need this in Australia. This is ideal.

[welditup85]

WHO THE FUCK DISLIKED THIS?!?!

[deliveryboy1]

i thought they didnt sell d-90's or d-110's in the u.s because they didnt have air bags... i dont understand why you cant sell a diesel jeep or a d-110... just dumb...

[danusthejeepman]

@deliveryboy1 because our epa sucks total dick and the diesel dont pass emissions. these jeeps should be at every Chrysler.. because these are real jeeps, not soccer mom jeeps

[Kolby72]

@deliveryboy1 We can thank Obama for that, the government telling us what we can and can't put in our vehicles... its's a F'ing joke

[gdonfreeman1]

@Kolby72 Agreed

[wormfood868]

@Kolby72 airbags have been required in all trucks and SUVs since 1996, and Tier 2 diesel regulations started being implemented in 2004 and had to be in place for light vehicles by 2008 so I'm at a loss to see how Obama is responsible.

[Kolby72]

@wormfood868 Well for starters I see diesel Jeeps everyday here in Germany, they have more HP and have more Torque. Unfortunatly we cant have these because our president revamped the laws regarding what diesels are aloud in what vehicles. That is what Obama has to do with it. The 2011 Wrangler was supposed to have a diesel option but it cant....and I never said anything about airbags???????

[wormfood868]

@Kolby72 deliveryboy1 mentioned airbags so I thew in the airbag part just to cover all bases. Could you tell me specifically which laws were changed because I can't find any changes to the Tier 2 diesel regs that were already in place. Everything I've been able to find says that a diesel wrangler was promised, then simply never appeared. Some good news though is that Euro 6 emissions regulations will match US ones so we should have more diesel engine options around 2014.

[tallzdatank]

how much would it cost to buy the kit, as well as the engine & running gear for this vehicle? i want one so badly, i dont care if i have to put the whole damn thing together myself. i want that diesel in it btw

[jay420365]

It comes in 2 door long box (AEV calls it 3door) and a 4 door (AEV calls it 5door). They count the back hatch a door.

[yannick4123]

why are they makin such a big deal of DIESEL, its not new, it has been around for years, and I myself have driven Diesel for the past 10 years, so why the hell are they acting like ti has jsut been discovered. Anyone who buys a offroader that is not a diesel is a retard

[MetalDrummerInFlames]

@yannick4123 uh dude do you realize you just criticized the majority of individuals who use jeep wranglers to go offroading? they dont even make diesel engine wranglers except for back in the 80s so do some research

[Kolby72]

@MetalDrummerInFlames they have had a diesel Wrangler over here in europe for awhile now....

[thorboy359]

@yannick4123

because they are talking about diesels in expedition vehicles like this. for people who are looking for an expedition vehicle not for an everyday jeep.

[tallzdatank]

@yannick4123 they're making a big deal out of it because you havent been able to buy a diesel 4x4 that wasnt a huge truck for a very long time in the US, because most people in the us associate diesels with huge freight trucks and such.

[yannick4123]

@tallzdatank I guess that is a fair comment, not many small Trucks available in this format with the same capability.

[IdahoAngler2]

Why in the he'll can't I buy this "off the shelf?"

Jeep, for the love of God put a diesel in the wrangler!!!!!!!!!

[idrobinhood]

uugg no dealers are able to order the J8 in the USA so far. Unless someone have more information on how to get one email me. I would love to order then resale them.lol

[ROADGUNNER007]

When I win the Lottery, I am getting AEV to pimp my Jeep, that I don't have yet, thats all I can say.

[jakeawockeez]

i love the evaluation of jeep, but i think there trying to 1up hummer by looking more like them, and what they dont realize it they did that like, before the 90s. i just hope they dont try and make it better tho were its not

[idrobinhood]

not able to find a dealer that handles the J8 milspec in ordering to this day so far...hhhmmm

[Kokless]

I have 09 jeep wrangler unlimited rubicon with 2,8 liter turbodiesel engine which makes 177 HP and compare to the 3,8 liter gas engine which makes 202 HP its only 25 HP difference and thats nothing.

I´m really happy with this engine the power is pretty much same but the consumtion is much lower with diesel. In EU diesels are in regular for ages. Its better fot the nature (global warming) and fot your wallet (money) :)

[potsmoker5000]

Thats awesome i would love to have a diesel wrangler.

[tommy35ss]

@Kokless It's not the horsepower off roaders want, it's the torque and gas mileage

[Kokless]

@tommy35ss I know it´s not about the horsepower off roaders want but most of them do care about that as well.. beleive me or not! and power doesn´t mean only torque but anyway the torque in gas engine is 315 Nm / 4000 rpm and mileage is 16.7 l but in diesel engine the torque is 410 Nm / 2000-2600 rpm and the mileage is 12.0 l. so now you can see the difference...

[EasternGateGuardian]

@Kokless

diesel release sulfuric di-oxides....20 times worst then CO2 as a green house effect and it is very toxic for the environment in contrast to CO2 which we breathe out and is very comoung on earth as a element

[mtb416]

@EasternGateGuardian Then what on Earth are you doing on this video?

Go bitch at Europe and the rest of the world then. Here in America hardly anyone uses a diesel when compared to gas run automobiles.

And the relationship between CO2 levels and "Global Warming" or "Climate Change" has recently been largely dismantled.

[EasternGateGuardian]

@mtb416

like what ever bud

[EasternGateGuardian]

@mtb416

seriously? whats with you dude?

[mtb416]

@EasternGateGuardian I have no tolerance for brainwashed, ignorant fools. Sorry.

[EasternGateGuardian]

@mtb416

ironic, you jump to conclusion like a programmed donkey

[mtb416]

@EasternGateGuardian My thoughts exactly. You're passive aggressive like a damn woman.

[jbravar]

@mtb416 what do you mean 'largely dismantled'? do you just go around saying things like that to sound smart?

[mtb416]

@jbravar Does that intimidate you? You're a walking assault on intelligence.

[jbravar]

@mtb416 Ha, wow, you're attacking me already? I'm glad you could so easily deduce my intelligence from those couple of sentences, but my question remains valid. What exactly do you mean by 'largely dismantled'? Do you just say that and hope nobody questions that? Or do you truly believe whatever propaganda you've been reading? My 'walking assault on intelligence', as you've so eloquently put it, has nothing to do with the fact that you're full of shit.

[mtb416]

It needs a little more clearance.

[idrobinhood]

cool, this is needed for regular military. Dump the hummer..

[offroader5]

I thought the J8 was a 2 door "long box" like the older Unlimited but as the new body style?

[lemons27772]

you can chose one or the other

[streakn]

I believe what you are referring to is the J8 Sarge prototype.

[wacey2002]

@offroader5 you r talking about the j8 sarge which was built fot the israel army

[tallzdatank]

@wacey2002 umm it was the Egyptian army dude not israel.

[tool5150]

@tallzdatank Egypt jew whats the diff?

[rtepic]

@offroader5 they also have those

[danusthejeepman]

@offroader5 You can get eathier, 3 door or the 5 door. both have same wheel base.

[iambooked]

@offroader5 can be 2 door or available 4 door. 4 door is for personnel carrying and armor protection.

[7vespoli]

@offroader5 there are two options, either a 4dr or a 2dr on a 4dr frame

[Jeepman3000]

thats awsome jeep should make that as the stock wrangler or actuall ymake it an option to have none of the electronics.and such

[911SHIZBO]

Whats AEV? I'm not familier with that company.

[truedeadman]

American Expedition Vehicles

[sideshow856]

aev stands for "american expedition vehicles" they make upgrade kits for different vehicles

[XvBULLDOGvX]

yer i aready got a diesel powered jeep lol
