Could be a dumb question, but...


Recommended Posts

Here goes it: I have been told that Jeep did not offer the 'Laredo trim' on our Comanches. And since my Comanche does not have electric windows, that this one fact alone states, that it is not a Laredo. But my carfax states, that it is... so, did Jeep offer Laredo, in the Comanches? or not?

I have the factory window sticker for my truck, the Laredo package is on there, they were most definitely an option from '87 on. I can also tell you that I'm pretty sure the Laredo package did not automatically get you power windows. Surprisingly it was mostly trim items, not necessarily convenience items.

Hard to answer since you have no signature and we don't know what you are driving. There are plenty of factory designated MJ Laredos w/o power windows. The best way to see what model and trim level you have is to run the VIN. if you post it up I can run it for you from a reliable site..

My VIN is under 87 registry, in my screen name and my profile has pictures of my Comanche.

Yes, it was offered, per the 1987 Jeep brochure:

A 1987 truck, with a 1989 motor?

 

Saw that - it's a misprint for the motor year. Ran it on a couple of others, same info with the correct motor year. What's important is that it's a factory Laredo.  :L:
