k2500 understands. the bed is where its at. extended cab 6ft bed. and i could do whatever the heck i wanted to do to this thing. frame reinforcements and solid steel bumpers. a winch. roll cage. run it on like 30's with 16" rims. that may be to big for that. idk. it would get around 20 mpg. maybe more if i was lucky. 400ft lbs of torque 150hp.

Jeep made a truck. J-Series pickups, most commonly refered to as Gladiators.. Then there was the Comanche basically a cherrokee unibody pickup.

or maybe take a chevy 2500 frame with 1500 suspension and a cummins 6 cylinder. i think thats 600ft-lbs and idr the hp rating on those engines. id get a adapter plate for a allison transmission to mount to the engine and run 1 ton axles under it. i would like 1500 suspension instead of 2500 as its obviously softer supsension. lighter weight. all i would carry is tools and passengers. id still stick too ext cab and 6ft bed.. and its all on what you like red. i like my chevys. not a big jeep fan honestly.

200hp and 400ft-lbs of torque is plenty for a little truck honestly. Lol

ive come to the conclusion. when i build this its going in a 2nd gen dodge ram 1500 ext. cab with 1 ton (dana 60) axles. a nv4500 transmission from a cummins. engine mods will be new injectors, cam, better turbo (eventually), solid bumpers, probably 3" lift with the biggest tires i can fit under it on 16's and upgraded axle components

im thinking red but idk what shade. and id go 24 valve. i hear they got more oomph. id like to put dual black hood scoops and a roll cage in the bed. with the mods i wanna do i think the 4bt will pump +/- 200hp and 400 ft/lbs.
