I know Jeep was pissing me off big time at the 2002 or 2003 International Auto Show down here last time i saw them. They were making a blatant Hummer (h1) knockoff mod for their wrangler. I dont have pictures of it and cant remember the model name, but they basically took a front end of a hummer, made it narrower, and slapped it on a Wrangler. They did ZERO increase to performance mods, but on a widebody kit and kicked the price up a few grand. I was very disturbed to see Jeep going the way of the "ricer" trend.

That COULD have been what you were seeing...not sure. I seriously doubt you were seeing a 2005 anything though. Quite possibly could have been an old scrambler....there is a huge following for those still...mainly in the rockcrawlin scene.
