Unfortunately there's a very good chance the '06 TJ replacement will use the
Liberty's independent front end. They'll BS their way through it if this
happens, but in my view that will be the end of Jeep as we've known it.

Oh, I can see the real argument they will make: weight. Compare the
weight of an aluminum V6 to the inline 6 tractor engine. Every ounce
they cut (theoretically) will boost the gas mileage. Same
rationalization for all the plastic and little bitty gas tanks. I'm
sure that many will agree that with proper maitainance and driving
patterns we could probably do just as well but it's like the carb
engines - who knows how to really tweek a carb anymore (and I never
did find one that wasn't a running battle over time).
Functionality is the last thing on the design sheet...
