Saw this J-truck while watching a video about the MI-24 Hind helicopter.
Looks like a 3/4 ton.

I noticed a J-Truck in the final scene of No Country For Old Men as the killer walks away from an accident.

There's one in Stranger Things, the Netflix show. It's just a glimpse of a parked GW in scenes showing the Hawkins downtown area. It shows up in a couple of episodes. It might have headrests, making it possibly anachronistic.

Can't figure out how to do a screen shot on a kindle, but at 32:08 in the first episode on the Shannana chronicles season one. There is a front clip of a wide track jeep. Pretty cool to see the image.

Saw a movie the other day called 5th wave (or something like that). The main character and love interest took shelter in a waggy.

Oh man i wanted to watch the 5th wave like 5 times over.. I would have been pleasently suprised to find that swampy wagoneer now you ruined it !!! LOL

why do they keep using wagoneers in movies like this ? Sure they were made for a long time... but if you look at production numbers of the wagoneer for all 29 years.. the Jeep grand cherokee from 93sold more units in only ONE YEAR lol.... There really werent many wagoneers built at all. Wagoneers were only sold like 10-30 units a year for most of the years.. while grand cherokee's had over 1.2 million ZJs made in 6 years...

Sowy... :(
It's not a bad movie either way. I guess it's similar to hunger games meets maze runner... with some falling skies thrown in for flavor. :)

Here is one for the duluth trading clothing line.. saw this commercial for womens shirts and noticed at 20 seconds in the video the woman is shoving boards on the roof and slaming a tailgate on the grand wagoneer which you can tell from the tailgate carpet lol
