A vehicle launch as big and important as the new 1987 Jeep Wrangler needs an epic ad to go along with it.

“Witness the beginning of a new legend” might be one of the coolest opening lines in a vehicle commercial, in part because it seems almost prophetic. The new 1987 Jeep Wrangler, also known as the YJ, was manufactured from 1987 to 1995 and built upon the legendary foundation laid by the Jeep CJ. The vehicle launched the Jeep brand into a new era where Wrangler still reigns supreme.
