8. Jeep Comanche
The Comanche model was manufactured between the years 1985 and 1992, and was a pickup truck version of the Cherokee.
Jeep Comanche was built in order to satisfy the demand and to compete with Japanese competitors.
As the AMC chairman W. Paul Tippett Jr said: “People are finding trucks a reasonable and sophisticated alternative to cars.”
The Comanche could be equipped with one of the three engine version available: the AMC 150 2.5 L, 150 CID I4, The General Motors LR2 2.8 L V6, or the Renault 2.1 L I4 turbo diesel.
Six different transmissions were offered during the production life of the Comanche, and the model came equipped with a weight sensing rear brake proportioning valve.
