During this presentation, we will take a 1st person look at what the vehicle is all about beginning with the start up, performance data, fuel economy, the occasional track data, and build quality. Also, I will teach you how to use most of the interior and exterior features in a detailed fashion, that before, you could only get from going to a dealership yourself! Throughout the video, I will highlight key styling and unique differences about the vehicle, any available options, and of course it would not be an enthusiast car video without the good ole engine portion with rev and exhaust note with interior and exterior perspectives. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.
FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE CHANNEL SEE BELOW: In this channel you will find in depth educational videos of automobiles from all over the world, presented in a more detailed fashion than ever before. Basically, this gives the viewer the chance to view the most detailed 1st person look you can get without going to an actual dealer yourself! Every video is consistent in the way I present so viewers know what to expect in my presentations. I treat every vehicle with the same respect whether a 1960 Chevrolet Impala SS or the 2012 Lamborghini Aventador. I film all types of vehicles from past, present, and future while broadening the knowledge of the automotive enthusiast. You will see everything from vintage, brand new, exotic, mainstream, old, etc. I am very proud of this channel and have built it up from amateur videos years ago to what you see today. I wanted to share my love for the automotive world with the rest of the world. Be sure to explore the massive video variety, have fun and enjoy The Driver's Seat of UA-cam! - Авто та транспорт
Me when I see a Lamborghini: 😐
Me when I see a Grand Wagoneer: 😃😃
100th like!
So true
Jeep needs to bring back the wagoneer
They are for 2018!
Marcus Wilson yea it looks horrible
Trevor Philips apparently they are but I think it needs to have the wood trim on the side otherwise it’s just a larger Grand Cherokee
They made a concept of the Grand Wagoneer.
@@lvtrunks2790 lmao no. More like 2022
I know it's hard for a lot of people to visualize it but I really do have an appreciation for examining the style and design of an older car, admiring what the engineers and designers created at the time given the technology at hand. Like how the back opens up on this jeep, you put the key in, window rolls down, reach in and open it, that is so cool to me! Very clever! I can't tell you how many shoulders shrugged and eyes rolled when I tried to tell people about all the awesome features I discovered in a 1989 Lincoln Town Car I got to drive. An outdoor thermometer, plush seats, smooth ride, the powered smokers windows, this stuff fascinated me! But of course everyone I told about it was like "ughh who cares, cars today are so much more advanced than this" but that's not the point!!!
thing is nicer than some modern suvs lol.
+DustinB855 Better sounding than them too
DustinB855 no. These are actually garbage. Typical 1980s crap quality.
flight2k5 not true at all these things are tough as hell, very tough and good off road
flight2k5 like ur moms
Jeeps a tougher than u think 😐
Grand Wagoneer is one of my favorite Jeeps of all time! I remember when the Grand Wagoneer was replaced by Grand Cherokee in 1992, as a 1993. Grand Cherokee was great during its first generation, but didn't care much for it after 1998.
I had a 98 grand Cherokee Laredo when I lived in South Africa, comfy and that 4.0 sounded amazing
@@rialbufames4023 I'm the second owner of one just like that and I've still got mine. 309,780 miles on it as of yesterday. :)
This car is ... incredible ! I love the engine sound !!
Before there were Escalades and Navigators, there was the Grand Wagoneer.
Donald V8 Exactly! Most people don't realize that this was supposed to be a luxury suv.
Sorry for my super late reply... But yeah, my guess is that people back then didn't see Jeep as a "luxury brand" like Cadillac or Lincoln.
89? looks like out of the freakin 70s.
Yeah! back then Jeep took the BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Porsche and Range Rover approach and kept the same basic body shape for decades.
+Hubert Walter More like 1963 haha
+Hubert Walter It looks beautiful. I wish these were sold in Australia.
Looked like that til 1991
***** he has no reviews of novas!
I have a blue 89, in great shape, and it's been converted to fuel injection. a American classic! Thanks for doing the review
It's so weird to see the car that brought me to your channel years ago. The first video I watched from you is the clapped-out Grand Wagoneer you tried to start up in the back lot of a dealership. So cool!
One of my favorite Jeeps for sure! Absolutely timeless frame and aesthetics!
Completely identical to my grandparent's Wagoneer, which was given away to a cousin around the time I bought my first car - a '98 Eclipse. I am Jeep for life now and constantly kicking myself in the butt for not buying their Wagoneer!
I love seeing classic cars on here; keep up the great work!
I've been waiting for you to review a Grand Wagoneer for a long while, thanks for the upload Kyle!
Grand Wagoneer was all over the suburban landscape in those days. Nearly every other house you drove by in upper-middle class neighborhoods had one of these in their driveway. The rest had Chevy Suburbans it seemed like. You're still the best, Kyle! Love your videos!
The Wagoneers biggest impact to the automotive world was cultural. It was the first 4x4 vehicle specifically designed and marketed as a suburbanite/family vehicle
Kyle this is awesome! I remember watching the one in the junk yard years ago! Love the old videos just as much as the new ones!
This is one of my favorite vehicles of all time. damn these things were beasts!
Love these older vehicle reviews. More...more!
I haven't watched your videos in years. Nice to see you're still making them, Kyle. :)
Thank you very much for doing the review on the Grand Wagoneer. It has always been one of my favorites. Great review!
I wish you'd do more old cars, Kyle. Especially now you got the connections I hope you would honor us with some true classics. I understand the younger kids don't care, but in the end it is what makes motoring so interesting. Thanks man.
You should make more videos like this. I live about 30 minutes away from where your filming location was. I've even driven on some of those backroads you went on during the test drive!
So glad you did this video!!!! Nice to see a Grand Wagoneer in such great condition.
i always liked the Grand Wagoneers, perfect family vehicle in my opinion.
Our profile pics look alike lol
+Insight Phantom that they do
I always liked these as a kid growing up in the 80's and 90's. They're a timeless classic.
dang that's a nice car. More of those 80s cars reviews please!
Our local newscaster drives this exact car, and I have always wanted to see a review of the Wagoneer for a long time. I always thought that these were the first "SUV's" ever made. I've always been really fond of these Wagoneers.
Truly an amazing machine from that great decade! I'd still drive it!
You know Jeep is going to bring the Grand Wagoneer back. They have been working on it too. This vehicle is what inspired the Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon. I did like your information you included as well. Thank you for doing this review and locating this vehicle SAAB Kyle.
The 1986-1991 Jeep Grand Wagoneer is the best-looking SUV of all time, in my opinion.
i have to correct my steering on my zj to the left in order to go straight just like this guys doing. this is also a near perfectly done review
This guy does excellent reviews 👍
I always loved these! And it's awesome to know that FCA may be reviving the Wagoneer as a future Range Rover competitor!!!
Kyle, my parents had a 78 model in British racing green I loved that Jeep, all the things you pointed on, I still remember as a little kid ! sure wish my dad keep that things now as it was immaculate. I often wonder if she's on the road today, somewhere !!
This is the kind of stuff I love. Keep it up man!
Great review... modest, informative, and accurate, as usual. Thank you.
A person across from the street where I work has one. Very80's but still looks great. Makes me want to go on a fam vacation to the woods!
You threw a curve with this one! Glad you still post a great variety of new cars and classic cars.
I wish I had this. this is so fresh
That looks extremely comfortable!!!!!!
And nice and cozy for those cold weather days!
Wish they still made big American cars like this or at the very least with nice big bench seats!
White exterior, Red interior, 1989. This was exactly what I wanted for a first car and...man am I glad I didn't get it with that AMC 360. I still want one.
Thanks for this review! I really love the style of this car!
This is definitely a far cry from the junker you did years ago.
+Ianna Matney No that one was a 1987
+HardcoreHockey I'm talking about condition
+HardcoreHockey and it was silver coloured in stead of white.
+Ianna Matney Holy crap you just reminded me of that one. It's amazing how many years people have been subbed to Kyle's channel.
fr
nice video kyle. one day you should go back to one of the dealerships you went to in the past and do dealership startups
I remember the one you did yeas ago, this one is on a whole different level.
Nice to see another great classic car review!
+Saabkyle04 This was so cool to find because we own THIS exact vehicle. It was in Washington in this video but now resides in Missouri. It's also in another blog video on UA-cam as well. Very random that this exact same vehicle is in 2 online car blogs and now we own it.
Was it restored? He has an old video of a Grand Wagoneer just like this one in a junk yard
Really digging the new style, nice work!
My favorite Jeep is the Grand Wagoneer! (1981 model, they're SO unique!)
the compass on the ceiling is the best part of these old jeeps! haha
As always very intresting and very professional Video
Keep up the good Work ;)
Remembering the 1987 Grand Wagoneer Junker video from several years back!
Nice vlog Kyle, at least this gonna be a detailed in-depth review I would give to my son and his wife but, this unit is a rare unit in our country Indonesia especially in our city Jakarta though it doesn't mean we wouldn't find this unit in barn-find condition, wish us luck buddy. 🙏
Had one of these... Very capable and comfortable vehicle.
Did anybody catch that hood thud when he closed that hood softly....now that's what I call solid steel. Definitely see why it had a $30,000 price tag new...definitely used it's panels and hood since 1963. This Will definitely obliviate a compact car. I'll take all that thick steel, heavy chrome bumpers, and the fully boxed frame over these airbaged tin cans with plastic bumpers anyday. And be sill happy with the avg 13 mpg. 👍
Great review Kyle!
Great video Kyle!
I just picked up an 89 Cherokee & the wagoneer looks so much better. that front end is way more attractive it looks like it was built in the mid 70's
you do a great job with the videos keep it up, it would be cool if you could do one in a 94 Buick Century with the 3.1
I had an 1989 Jeep Grand Wagoneer much like the one featured here. It was a cool truck.
Skylar White anyone?
+FidgetMyMidget I just finished watching the series today
Hahaha I was thinking of breaking bad when I saw this
+Vincent Tellone You're thinking about the Pontiac Aztek
Skyler drove a red Grand Wagoneer until season 5. That was Walter that drove the Aztek
Can't wait for the new Jeep Grand Wagoneer, the legend will be back.
This made me remember when you use to do your dealership cold starts :D.
Ahh good times 😁
Nice job Kyle!
I've been watching this channel for over 5 years. I am a bit disappointed you no longer do "regular cars", it seems like all you do is exotics now.
You must not have viewed his channel in a while then, lately he's been uploading a lot of affordable vehicles.

What does that mean? I am seriously saddened by his lack of "regular cars".
ThePuffin77
If with regular we understand cars that are common therefore cheap, then we would agree that a 30 years old jeep wagoneer, is, currently, a regular car, as you can buy one decent for 5k and there's plenty of them, on the market.
Nombre
The only ones I see are around 35k. It is rare to see them here.
Lgreat upload, love the vids,
Great review! I love it!
I've recently purchased an 88 grand jeep wagoneer, I love it! Needs some TLC but gladly welcome the restoration, it'll be worth it. Whats a good group to join up with fellow waggies?
ahhhh..good old fashioned saabkyle04
This vehicle sounds terrific!!
Looks awesome on the Jeep Grand Wagoneer. This was a body style for this Jeep Grand Wagoneer from 1963-1992, and while the grille is from 1986-1992. The inside is very nice no junk or anything. They don't make the old school Grand Wagoneer no more after 1992 the production series was ended since early to middle of 1992.
That is the best sound system that I have ever heard from stereo that was not turned on. Makes me wonder what else he has been slipping by me for the last year or so i have been watching. I do love the videos...just not a fan of the smoke and mirrors.
Wow, what a corker, I didn't realise the Grand Wagoneer was introduced in 62. 29 years in production almost unchanged must be some kind of record surely. Whoever bags this one is a lucky person, I bet if they look after it and keep it in this sort of condition they won't lose a single cent in value. And that V8 burble...
Why do these vehicles seems so beautiful , so real - as if nothing matters in the world once you drive off .
The 1989 Grand Jeep Wagoneer is my dream car. I wish I had one.
The technology in 1989, amazing
a treat for sure the junker video years ago was just a tease!
this jeep looks like the 'Ranger' from SanAn..!! brings back memories when driven it throughout the nevada desert..!!
Actually the ranger was based on the chevy k5 blazer. The perennial and huntley both closely resemble it
nice to see an old vehicle again
Beautiful classic Jeep.
you should review one of the tri-five chevy belair's. I would say one of mine but they are both not stock and one is in the middle of a restoration. 1957 was the most iconic year for the belair. we have a 55' and a 57' bel air hard top.
When the Grand Wagoneer ended it became the Grand Cherokee. It was the end of an era for the Grand Wagoneer. You'll see how similar the 90's Grand Cherokee looked to the Grand Wagoneer, the headlights, the body shape, the roof racks, etc.
I LOVE these so much
Oh my goodness I am in LOVE with this car 😍
Gorgeous example!
those things are beautiful! I want one really bad!
Nice Review Kyle!
- Michael
It reminds me of the 87 Wagoneer you did, it was just like this one
I have to say i love these things. Around here (new england) they are almost all rusted away.... it is a shame really. Your driving me crazy... white was my favorite color of these also, i just think they looked stunning in white.
Sound is awesome for this car
I love how the car shakes when he rev it😍
This car right here is so valuable today
Kyle I love your vids, but maybe you should get stand-alone microphone and add the audio to video later, that would kill a lot of background noises :-) Anyways great vehicle!
Hey Kyle, would it be possible for you to include the time of the test drive portion of the video in the time stamps in the description for future videos? thanks!
This wagoneer was way ahead of its time
She's a beaut.
Look at that timing belt. It's just right there, easy as pie to fix. I recently changed the timing belt on my Renault Megane and I damn near had to take the engine out.
This reminds me of american camping nostalgia. Having your camp gear on top with your wife and kids singing some stupid song as you drive to your camp site in the mountains.
I would still take a same year land cruiser over this though, theyre beasts
Reminds me of the classic 1988 john candy flick the great outdoors
Thats one beautiful JEEP! I want!
the things got so much character and was built for comfort, what a unique vehicle, not like the junk crossovers we have to drive today
awesome thanks for uploading:-)
Love the Grand Wagoneer.
