Was reading in the bookstore today a book titled 1001 Jeep facts, with a 2018 publication date.
It said the Sahara was originally supposed to be the Banana Republic edition, but they couldn’t get together on a royalty agreement, so they went with Sahara.
Don’t know how true it is, because I found several mistakes on picture captions, but if true it does seem like it’s the mall crawling model :bandit:

That’s what it said. It lumps jk and JL in the same chapter, so I’m not sure about what year we’re talking. But it’s something I hadn’t ever heard.
