So, first, full disclosure. I've driven Jeeps for 50 years, and havent liked ANY of the names applied since CJ ... Renegade, Scrambler, Wrangler...just too much cuteness and Madison Ave. CJ, XJ, YJ, BJ, JL, JK, RSVP...WTF?
We're all very aware and proud of the Jeep lineage, descending from the '41 MB2. Yet, we seem to need to subdivide into as many subsets as possible. Why?
To me, the 2019 Jeep I drive has enough design keys and functional genetics in common with all those older builds, that I see it as just the most recent version of what they were building in my youth. Why not just call them all what they are...Universal?
