sure, but really all you need to know is they are slow. Painfully slow, even for the 1987 model year with the 5.9 v8. but if you have specific questions just post 'em here. I can only access work email today as I forgot my phone at home this am (derp)

A former coworker owned one. He moved to the Gulf a few years ago and I haven't been in touch recently, but could probably get a hold of him if I had to. It was an '86, and he bought it to replace an '02 Taurus that was totaled in a rear end collision, because he said the Jeep "felt safer".

I have a 1991 Wagoneer. This truck is very special to us. We have lots a memories and the truck was also therapy after a family tragedy. It's been in our family for 10 years. And with any luck and more money my daughter will one day own her.

My husband and I own an '88. We use it for our business. Actually, it kind of is our business (there's a photo booth in the back) My husband says it's like driving a truck from the 60s. - there's not a whole lot of refinement to it but that's part of the charm. Really soft seats, though and lots of visibility thanks to all of the glass and narrow pillars - like riding in one of those bubble-topped cars from the Jetsons, you can see everything!

Welcome to the party haha the story is up and can be read at:

http://driving.ca/jeep/auto-news…

And that would be awesome! A Wagoneer and a T/A would be a bitchin vintage combo. There’s also a cool facebook group called ‘saving grand wagoneers’ which has a great following. Worth checking out!
