Hilfiger Wagoneer

Tommy Hilfiger featured Jeep Grand Wagoneers in his Fall 2010 advertising campaign and for his 25th anniversary he auctioned off a Wagoneer for charity. This was not your average 1989 Jeep Grand Wagoneer. The wood paneled sides were accentuated by a “Tommy Hilfiger 25th Anniversary” pinstripe and the interior was reupholstered with blue plaid fabric. The steering wheel was navy leather with red stitching and a gold letter “H” graced the driver’s door and passenger doors.The proceeds went to Millenium Promise.



How perfect would this be for tailgating?


I had a navy blue Grand Wagoneer in high school and let me tell you that baby could hold a lot of stuff. I will always love them...even without power steering!

I'm not usually a big Tommy Hilfiger fan, but that Wagoneer is pretty much my dream car!

A burgundy, 1983 Wagoneer was my grandparent's farm vehicle. Oh, how I miss that woody. Have you seen http://wagonmaster.com/complete.htm? Love the eye candy on this site. And hopefully one will be mine some day soon. Along with a 1971 M-B 280SL. ;-)

Ahh I am obsessed with wagoneers, and love that Tommy did this! I love that commercial... We have a friend who recently purchased and revamped a Wagoneer for Yale tailgates, the football team stinks but the tailgating is great!!

There are several outfits...one here on the Main Line that restore and update Wagoneers and sell them...hot item....you should make JCW buy one for you for your Steeplechase outings.

I love everything about that commercial! It always makes me so happy. I love the plaid wool blankets as a table cloth- somehow I don't think I could convince my mother to go that route for the table decor this Christmas though!

I own a 1991 "Spinnaker Blue" Jeep Grand Wagoneer that I have used for photo shoots and videos. My dad had one when we were growing up as kids and I wanted one of my own ever since. Check out my photos www.1991jeepgrandwagoneer.com
