Jeep Comanche. It was the truck version of the Cherokee(XJ)



It looked better once I put the toolbox on

 

I really want a Comanche as a project truck.

 

I looked for one for a few years, just never found one I was comfortable with and could afford

 

I want an 88-89 that I can fix up. Nothing too crazy, more of a restoration than anything.

 

10-4 that’s what I was thinking

 

I wanted the 91 with the 4.0 HO

 

Had to match the tow rig

 

I haven’t had a Jeep in a few years, wife wants me to get another older one. She likes driving them around an such.

 

Yeah, I want the longbed metric ton package. Fix her up nice, fresh paint. All that jazz.

 

I'm still a fan of the pre JK Jeeps

 

My trailer was from a longbed. It was perfect for my needs.

 

Me too and have owned an restored a lot of Willy’s

 

I had a JK. Whenever I get another Jeep it will be an MJ or TJ/YJ if I'm going to rig it up.

RIP. I'll shed a tear for a fallen longbed.

 

I'm sure the JK's were nice, I just didn't like the new group of "Jeepers" it brought in. The TJ and earlier was rare to see "Brodozier" type builds.

I understand there are a lot of those type builds with Tacomas, I just didn't have any preconceived notions about them. I wanted a midsized truck with good reliability and aftermarket support

 

I bought it from a junkyard. It was a front end collision, so it was no good anymore.

 

Sad times. Shortbeds are dumb. Mostly cause I can never find used toppers/bedmats for my longbed.

How come Jeeps always come up when I'm at work and have no pictures of my old Jeep around?

 

The shortbed Comanche is a longbed Tacoma My trailer was 7ft 3in I believe.

 

That'd be nice. A whole extra foot of room.

 

You mean like these?
