    I remember one of the big car magazines of the time did a comparison test between the popular SUV's of the time. This was just before Chrysler ended production. IIRC it was the Toyota Land Cruiser, the Chevy Suburban, The Jeep Grand Cherokee, the Nissan Pathfinder, and Fords new Explorer. Despite being the oldest design in the group the Jeep still took third ahead of the Ford and the Nissan. The writer commented on while the road handling showed the platforms age, the Jeep handled the off road part of the competition at least as well as the winner (the Toyota). It's been a wish list vehicle of mine for years. Great video!

    I love the FSJ’s. The Grand Wagoneer, the Wagoneer they made from the 60’s on up, the full size Cherokee they started making in ‘74 when they killed off the Commando that I have a few of. Never thought I’d see the day that they’re worth so much money, I picked the wrong Jeep to start collecting

  • @AnonymousFreakYT

    Oh, yeah! My grandparents bought one of the last model year AMC-built Grand Wagoneers as their "retirement vehicle" - it was the SUV with the highest towing capacity at the time, so they bought it and a big camper trailer to tour the country for a couple years after they retired.
    And they used the 4 wheel drive on it regularly, after settling down in a remote part of Arizona. I still remember going to visit them over the summer when I was in high school, and we drove it to some canyon in Northern Arizona or Southern Utah (no, not the Grand Canyon) and did a 4WD tour of the canyon - the tour guides let you choose to ride in one of their Jeep Wranglers or use your own vehicle if it was 4WD. The tour guide drove, though. He *REALLY* liked driving their Grand Wagoneer... Any time he approached anything even remotely technical, he's ask cautiously if he could proceed, for fear of scratching/denting their vehicle. My grandpa would boldly "Go for it!"
    And where their house was in Southern Arizona, if they wanted to get to Tucson, it was either "a few miles of back roads, followed by a dozen miles of state highway" or "a few miles directly across the desert then a couple miles of state highway." My grandpa always drove the "across the desert" route. It probably scared other drivers seeing him come racing across the desert, then just merging on the highway where there was no ramp. (Sadly, the whole area has become built up now. And while my grandfather passed away a few years ago, my grandmother still lives there. Her house still has the back porch face directly on to empty desert, but there is now a town only about a mile away that direction, and the front side, where there used to be only a few other houses then "town" a couple miles away is now completely developed all the way to the town center.
    Anyway, I miss their Wagoneer. After the town started developing, they sold it and bought a '98 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight.

The second time he took it to the gas station, a young attendant said "Nice Wagoneer you got there." The doctor said "Thanks." then the attendant said, "Did you buy it like that, or did you restore it yourself?"

    One of reasons why its so comfy might be the 200k miles. I had a 160k Passat, lowered even and whatnot but somehow it was the most comfortable thing Ive ever driven. I loved every mile in it, It just glided over everything. The very next car after it I had was the new one, not just a facelift, whole new platform and all better supposedly. It was stiff as a rock,regular version. As 99% of cars are today. Its horrible what theyre doing to cars, it used to be clear, they competed in luxury and comfort,stiffness was left for sportscars now they compete who makes the most versatile car and so it terrible.

I also have people asking "how much" and really, there isn't a price that I would sell it for. I have spent the last 2 years learning the vehicle, working on it (it had 229k and a rebuilt motor/trans) and loving this beast of a vehicle.

We beat the hell out of that thing. It had 350K miles on it, was held together by Bondo and duct tape, and he even rolled it, but it kept going strong. 0-60 could have been timed on a sundial, but torque to climb up a wall. Great offroading rig. Especially since he didn't care how much it got beat up. Great times.

    I had an 89 Grand wagoneer as my first vehicle ever! That truck was miles better than any truck on the trail. Even with street tires, you could bury that truck to the mirrors and still go through it. I was in mine one time years back and was chugging through it. I came across this guy and his wife in an 89 Dodge Prospector trying to pull an old Willys that had slid down the hill. They were stuck too. Mind you i wasn't in 4 low yet. I threw her in low and backed up off the Dodge and went around. I hooked that Prospector to me, and he hooked the Willys to his and i gave that 360 hell! I pulled them both out on street tires lol.
