The three versions in which it was available was wagon, convertible and pick up truck. The Company was taken over by American Motors Work. This car was quite successful commercially. The SUV was the pride of America and was the proof that the United States was indeed a rich and a very technologically superior nation. The car displayed the spirit of the nation, at that point of time. The car was so popular throughout the US that many people actually started Jeep Commando clubs, throughout the United States. The Jeep, which originally, was meant solely for the United States Army was a roaring hit.
