    Tommy, I really think you've found your niche. Very informative, obviously well researched and with a bit of nostalgia thrown in. Thanks.

    You will have more satisfaction owning that old truck than a $60k new one.

    I love the older, inexpensive truck videos that y'all have been making! Keep it up!

    My jeep diesel Commanche was a great little truck. 35 - 40MPG across Canada. I wasn't expecting to go fast, just get the work I needed to get done.

    The Comanche the vehicle most of us wanted again. The Gladiator The one no one asked for.

    The old jeeps were superior for one reason... The CROTCH VENT.... best vehicle feature ever to grace summer time drivers in Texas.

    Best part about the steering wheel: no buttons!

    I've been daily driving a 91 comanche 4x4 for the past 5 years. I absolutely love it and I've owned lots of vehicles

    Had 360k miles on my ‘88 Cherokee Chief when the transmission gave up

    My old man owned multiple jeep trucks including a Comanche. It fueled my love of the brand.

    The renix system wasn't bad. I had a 87 xj that ran good up until I sold it with 270k on it. It used oil and the air didn't work but never had a problem out of the renix engine management system. I like to think that jeep is still running but who knows. The high output system that replaced the renix system was probably better but I never had one so I can't say.

    To me it’s exactly why I love my 03 f150 supercrew fx4. It does what you ask of it. It’s not a classic or as cool as the Jeep but to me for a truck it’s all I need. I just had a/c recharged and locked at similar truck but new it was $62k sticker price. Holly crap.

    The glove box hinges at the bottom so that it becomes a "tray" for setting things on. My '95 Cherokee Country even had little indentations where the wanted you to set your cup. ONLY practical for when you were parked. You would be eventually wearing your drink if you tried it on the go.

    I'd love to come across a Comanche in great shape like that one, I'd snatch it up in a second.

    As a 70's kid I perfected the e-brake turn with a foot pedal, you just have to hold the release out with one hand and steer with the other.
