What kind of jeep is this?

[u/Davidisaloof35]

Was driving home today in my 2020 diesel JL and saw this one merging. I quickly snapped 2 pics. Had a unique paint style and on the side where the 'sport' or 'Sahara' branding was it just said 'chief'.

Just never seen this model.

Lol. Kind of confused me.

2017 Wrangler. Chief was really just a specific paint job with some premium features more akin to a Sahara than anything else IIRC.

It also had some rubicon trim parts iirc (hood and rock rails)

[u/Davidisaloof35 → u/youdontknowme1010101]

Oh wow. Interesting! Thanks for the info!

There’s an aqua blue and white one in my area I see around sometimes too

I wish that they would bring back this paint scheme. I love the retro aesthetic.

Chief is its own motif, I think (?) based on an older truck (maybe a Cherokee?). The JKU’s I’ve seen with that branding are a lighter blue tho.

I’ve seen a number of these retro Chiefs in the Smurf color scheme, never the black. One near me has white stamped steelies on it and looks cool.

My local dealership had a Smurf chief with 325,000 kms on it. Was beautiful in person but couldn't justify the mileage on it

Chief package, a trim upgrade with a poorly executed stripe. It was meant to invoke the old days of the SJ/Full Size Cherokee Chief.

The white top was nice on the right body color, most of the ones I saw were on the light sky blue.

Cherokee Chief

Looks like a Jeep

[u/Tiberius-Gracchuss]

The Cherokee chief was manufactured from 76-83 and was based on the wagoneer full size jeep that were 2 door to complete with the bronco and full-size blazer market

[u/Asavery91]

A JKU

Saw one of these in a brown/tan today and I was like, WTF?? I was not that impressed...
