Pioneer Longbed: 1989 Jeep Comanche MJ

The Jeep Comanche (aka MJ "The King of Pack") was a compact pickup truck based on the XJ Jeep Cherokee -- although the compact designation is decieving because this is no Subaru BRAT.  The Comanche was available with AMC's big 242 cubic inch inline-6 and a 7-foot long bed, neither of which was particularly compact.  Find this 1989 Jeep Comanche MJ here on eBay bidding for $3,155 with one day to go, located in Clayton, KS.

5k: AMCeep: 1991 Jeep Comanche SporTruck

The Jeep Comanche was a compact pickup built from 1986 to 1992 during the transition from AMC to Chrysler ownership of the Jeep brand.  The MJ Comanche has the dubious honor of being the last pickup truck ever built wearing the Jeep emblem, ending a tradition of Jeep pickups dating back to the 1947 Willys Jeep Truck.  Finding an original condition survivor isn't impossible, but finding one for a nice price is a treat.  Find this 1991 Jeep Comanche SporTruck offered for $2,800 in Kalispell, MT via craigslist.  Tip from Oldsmobuick.

5k: Cowboy's Lament: 1987 Jeep Comanche Laredo 4X4 5-spd

Johnny Cash in his final album sings a particularly stirring rendition of the folk song Cowboy's Lament, also known by part of its first line as "Streets of Laredo."  (Side note: The Kingston Trio sings a decidedly more whimsical version, but Cash's version is better).  The song chronicles of the life of a Cowboy who "used to go dashing," but "got shot in the breast" and is "dying today." It is a fitting name for the mid-level Jeep Comanche as it embodies a certain degree of Cowboy cool and also died young.  Find this 1987 Jeep Comanche Laredo 4X4 5-spd for sale in Shawsville, VA currently bidding on ebay for $5,101 with 3 days to go.  Tip from IgnatiusReilly.

Black Friday: 1990 Jeep Comanche

Black Friday is typically celebrated by running out to your local mega-mart and buying all kinds of discounted junk that you really don't need.  We at the Daily Turismo don't believe is messing with tradition, so today we would like to present our version of Black Friday - focusing on cheap cars...and they have to be black.  We think you should skip the $5 BlueRay player and instead pickup this 1990 Jeep Comanche located in Falls Church, VA and currently bidding on ebay for $2,550 with 2 days to go.
