A look back on popular stories from today in a specific year.
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
But can it run Doom?
No, but you can run over doom with it
@DarkLightConnection
Good call
Pick Me!
yes
Nothing can run over Doom. Have you seen a Hell-knight? Hell, have you seen the Cyber-demon?
Yeah...
Thats what I thought.
Which Hell Knight and which Cyber Demon? The original ones which were relatively normal size or the Doom 3 ones which were stupid sized. But then Doom 3, like Halo 3, was all hype and pretty sucky in reality.
Do want! DO WANT BAD!!!!!!
pick me ...... ...... .....
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
ihihihihihihihihihi
Does it fishtail like crazy?
hah, cant wait to see the real thing. Been watching it on autoblog for a week now.
HOOPTIE HOTTIE!!!
Give it a removable hard-top, and a pluggable recharger (making it a pluggable hybrid), and I'd buy it.
And I'm not a usual jeep/chrysler customer nor halo player (not even an xbox customer; playsation-family BABY!).
Oh, and, make a black option. I want it in black.
not just black, but with a rocket launcher on the back!
I don't think people realize that there is an extent on how much power a regular power adapter can give... for example, stoves use a two-phase outlet... and lets put it this way... those you REALLY don't wanna touch.
They already make electric cars that can be charged from a house outlet. And they even sell pluggable hybrid (flex fuel even) cars in other parts of the world.
Sure, maybe it requires a special circuit in your garage, but it'd be worth it, in my opinion.
Wait, can win this for leaving a comment?
Yeah engadget is now giving away whole vehicles that aren't even in production yet!! pretty amazing eh?
(sarcastic)
can i win this?
meh, id rather have a Banshee
or perhaps a hornet
wait... hornet ...cyberdyne.... shit.
Chrysler needs to be putting their talents into creating new car that isn't a bucket of bolts right out of the factory.
why do they even bother to design these "concept" cars when they know it will never be in production....
That is so true
Its kinda like how fashion designers have a ridiculous dress or whatever and then make a line of clothes that is toned down a little. So Jeep (and other car companies) make this concept and then use the styling in future models, however subtle it is.

I think it might be like when a fashion designer....
It actually looks like one of the cars from Mega-Race if anyone remembers that game :)
Definitely, I used to play Megarace 2 all the time. Any idea where I can get a copy of that? Short of ebay, I s'pose.
with that loud ass crazy announcer. all fmv. sooo strange, yet so fun.
here come the memories:

Lawsuit in 3, 2, 1...
Li-ion powered! I sure hope they don't pick Sony to make power packs. It sure would be a bummer to see these beauties blow up... :)
If that came in shades of black and red mixed in I would get that in a heart beat. I would also add spinner rims. Maybe a B-B gn that looks like an ak-47 mounted on the car. maybe a bose sound system too. and a 26 inch plasma with internet hooked up. And a smoke bomb shooter right next to the exaust pipe... I'm sounding a bit obsessed, arent I?
Why is it that we've had awesome concept cars for decades, and our cars have looked plain and boring in the same timespan?
"I think it looks more like a Puma!"
Pums dont exist crazy! What next! Bigfoot?
Sarge: What in Sam Hell is a 'Puma'?
Simmons: Uh... You mean like the Shoe Company?
Grif: No! Like a 'Puma'! It's a big cat, like a lion.
Sarge: You're making that up!
Grif: I'm telling you, it's a real animal!
Sarge: Simmons! I want you to poison Grif's next meal!
Simmons: Yes, Sir!
Sarge: Look, see these two tow hooks? They look like tusks. And what kind of animal has tusks?
Grif: ...A walrus.
Sarge: Didn't I just tell you to stop making up animals?
Yay RvB!
Cant wait for season 6.
I thought I'd seen a design that was said too look like the Warthog elsewhere... did some research and found it: Peugot Hoggar.

Make it green and maaaaaaaybe...
this concept has been out for quite some time! actually, since before the original Halo came out!
I'd so drive that thing
*drools*
It looks like the jeepster that was in the philadelphia autoshow so many years ago
Yay!
Another really awesome concept that will never be put into production!!
Driving this in first person would be SO wrong.
I say if they mount an overhead camera and steer it with an Xbox 360 controller, I'm there.
They also need to add a turret to the back.
cool...
It has a style similar to Jeep's 2005 concept, the Jeepster.
Quick FYI: The Jeepster was a concept in 1998, not 2005. You're thinking of the Hurricane concept, which was from 2005, and does have a similar "buggy" styling to the Renegade concept.
