  • Let's talk about Jeep's miniature, luxury focus XJ WAGONEER! I've always thought these things were kinda cool, you don't ever see them all too often. When the company was creating the this XJ Wagoneer, the idea sounded pretty smart... off road luxury, wrapped in a smaller, more practical size and experience for families! However, the sales numbers told a different story... What do you think about the XJ Wagoneer? Thank you so much for watching!

    This, is the XJ WAGONEER EXPLAINED! What do you think about the XJ Wag? It’s not all that often you see one of these rare trucks going down the road…

    I own an XJ Wagoneer, 4.0 Renix w/ AW4. Very fun car. Has the trim level of the FS Wagoneer, but the compact nature of the Cherokee. I really like the stacked headlights and grille.

      It is a great look! I love the look of the stacked headlights and the grille as well. Pretty cool looking, under-appreciated. Thanks for watching and commenting! Subscribe for more Jeep history every Wednesday, follow my 86 Wag project

    I have one of these, loving the stacked headlights and extra set of turn signal lights behind the grill. Has a lot of charm and pretty easy to find parts for since it's nearly all cherokee parts. Mine is 1987 so it's AMC parts with a Chrysler manual 😊. Thanks for the video!

      Thanks for sharing! I like how Jeep had differentiated the XJ Wag from the regular XJ Cherokee and SJ G Wagoneer. It’s a great design and look they came up with. You don’t see them all too often, cool stuff! Thanks for watching and commenting! Subscribe for more Jeep history every Wednesday, follow my 86 Wag project

    like it better than what jeep calls a wagoneer and grand wagoneer today ,more of a 3row luxury family school bus ,also there was the one yr only 93 ZJ grand wagoneer was at a car meet saw a 1989-91 grand wagoneer wood grand delete never seen one before

    • @wagonworks803

      I agree with you. The new Wagoneer models today do not live up to it’s iconic nameplate and rich history. With that Wagoneer you saw, someone must’ve taken the wood off. To my knowledge, they all came with woodgrain. Thanks for watching!

    Personally I've always liked the xj wagoneer never been able to get one cause everyone that owns one hit the pipe to many times but if I got one I'd lift it and put a regular xj header panel on it cause the double headlights is ugly

      The stacked headlights sure is unique look. Personally, I like it. One of those lifted would be sweet. Thanks for watching and commenting! Subscribe for more Jeep history every Wednesday, follow my 86 Wag project

    They should have split the difference between all three based on wheelbase. Ex, XJ Cherokee 101 inch WB. Wagoneer 108 inch WB, GW 110. Just saying missed opportunity to create a midsized luxury SUV.

      I agree. That’s kind of like the Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer today. A missed opportunity. Thanks for watching and commenting! Subscribe for more Jeep history every Wednesday, follow my 86 Wag project
