JK CRD

Sure would be nice if they did offer this stateside. I saw an article
the other day that say the 4-cyl diesel version of the Unlimited JK
being built for sale to the military can tow up to 9,000 lbs. The
only reason I haven't bought a JK is because I need the ability to tow
a larger trailer/boat etc, so I have to stick with a traditional
larger size SUV. But an Unlimited JK Rubicon that can tow 9000
pounds??!!??!?!? I'd be first in line to pay full MSRP.
