CrzRsn's Jeep Wagoneer Tag

Hi! Thanks for picking up me up! Hope you like my ride! My mission is to travel the world by getting dropped in as many caches as possible. Please do not pick me up and take me for visits from cache to cache, but drop me off as soon as possible as I want to continue my journey with as many different people as possible. If you are visitng multiple caches at once with me in your pocket, I would rather you not do "visit" style logs. Thanks so much!
 

My home is in Michigan, but I'm starting my journey on . while on a trip to .. Lets see how far I can go!

The Jeep Wagoneer is a luxury 4×4 produced and marketed under the Jeep brand, which was owned by successive automakers from 1962 to 1991. Described when it was introduced as a station wagon body style, the innovative concept by industrial designer Brooks Stevens over time pioneered the luxury "sport utility vehicle" (SUV).

Initially briefly available with the choice of rigid or independent front suspension, and optional rear-wheel drive only, the 4WD Wagoneer stayed in production for 29 model years (1963–1991) with an almost unchanged body structure, making it the third longest-produced single generation car in U.S. automotive history.

Chrysler bought out American Motors Corporation on March 2, 1987. At the time, AMC was already working on designing a replacement for the antiquated SJ platform. Chrysler had other priorities, and although the Jeep J-Series pickups that shared the SJ platform and directly competed with Chrysler's Dodge Ram pickups were discontinued in 1988, Chrysler left the Grand Wagoneer largely untouched over its first few years overseeing Jeep production, and even continued to build the model with the carbureted AMC V8 instead of its own (arguably, more modern) fuel-injected V8. Year-to-year changes were minimal. At the time of Chrysler's purchase, customer demand for the Grand Wagoneer continued to be steady, and it was a very profitable model generating approximately five to six thousand dollars on each unit.
