WAGONMASTER'S Update

WAGONMASTER'S UPDATE:

Great debate from the trenches/troops who love the Wagoneer! Keep it coming! I'm planning on sending Jeep your comments... @Christine - If and when Jeep comes out with a new Wagoneer, the fanfare and advertising they will spend on it will draw attention to the surviving Grand Wagoneers (like yours and ours) like nothing else has to date...You'll be in rarified air, girl. I think, honestly, there is little chance they will resemble the vintage Wagoneers. You own an American icon. ...But, if they do a great job on the new product, I can see an old and a new in the same garage!"

We will keep ya posted!
