Good thing I have my JKU...

"The next-generation Jeep Wrangler might have an aluminum body, instead of steel, and be assembled somewhere other than Toledo, Ohio, where its roots go back more than 70 years to the first Willys MB was made for the U.S. Army.

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles CEO Sergio Marchionne also hinted at the Paris Motor Show that the iconic Wrangler also could be built on a unibody, rather than a body on frame, structure."

An aluminum tub would be nice. I can't see them combining that with unibody construction though. Are there any other aluminum unibody vehicles? (Not counting any exotic vehicles.)
