Original Story:
Just as there was a special edition Jeep for Call of Duty: Black Ops, there will be another one for Modern Warfare 3.
Unveiled at the Call of Duty XP event last week, the MW3 Special Edition Jeep is based on the Wrangler Rubicon in black or silver with wheels finished in semi-gloss black. The exterior features “Call of Duty: MW3 Special Edition” graphics on the front fenders and spare tire cover.
The vehicle also features a unique “power-dome” hood, along with such Mopar accessories as a winch-ready front bumper, rear bumper, rock rails, taillamp guards and a fuel-filler door. The limited-edition Wrangler will also come with 32-inch off-road tires, live axles with locking differentials in the front and rear, and a two-speed transfer case.

If you're not in the market for such a Jeep, that's ok, because you can drive the virtual version of this vehicle in Modern Warfare 3 when it launches November 8, 2011.
Also worth mentioning was the excellent demonstration event that Jeep held with Activision at the Call of Duty XP event. We couldn't film the entire thing, but we were able to catch everything from when we were inside the Jeep. Check that video out below:
