I like it but the designers screwed up when they didn't take the grain below the gas door and not through it. It should follow the wheel opening like it does on the rear door...

The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

It HAD to be done if they were going to use the name Grand Wagoneer.

The price tag on those things is nuts...crazy money for a vehicle.
Never, ever argue with an IDIOT. They will drag you to their level and then beat you with their years of experience

The Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer ads that I've seen don't mention 'Jeep'. Could Stellantis be looking to spin-ff Wagoneer as a separate brand? I heard rumors about that, but its serious cart before the horse syndrome. Seems they have a Cadillac guy in there saying Escalade should be its own thing, and he has a point - not so much here though

Wagoneer for sure will be the high end stand alone brand just like all of the rest have done. Lincoln, Genesis, Acura. Lexus, Infinity, etc., Few people know Ford, Honda Toyota, Nissan Hyundai make those luxury brands so having the Grand Wagoneer or "Wagoneer" as a stand-along luxury SUV fits right into the US and world markets. Won't be long.

In general, I like woodgrain, and a Grand Wagoneer seems like the perfect vehicle for it, but that just looks tacked-on and generic. Too bad. My off-brand Big Woody: is that the car that has the "cell phone antennae" ? It is! Eric, I'm sure you recognize the "Coolspring Power Museum" sticker just below it.

To be clearer, that woodgrain is not a factory option. It is a kit made by an aftermarket company, that individuals can buy or some dealers buy and install as a dealer installed add on.

i sure do Mike !  i have been there many times, and each time, there are new things to see, as well as old favorites. if anyone reading this forum ever gets close to Brookville, Pa. and has some time to enjoy items of the past, the Coolspring Power Museum is a wonderful place to visit. anyone can PM me at any time for information about this museum, and i will gladly obtain flyers for you. also, the first 4 wheel drive vehicle was [sort of] mass produced in Brookville. it was called the Twyford. i can't tell you how many were produced, but none exist today. however, a local master machinist whom i know quite well, Bill McCracken, obtained the original blueprints for the 1903 model, and made a replica of the original. it is quite impressive, and resides in the Jefferson County Historical Museum here in Brookville.
