Three words: Made in America. We Americans carry quite a bit of national pride when it comes to our homegrown car manufacturers, be they Fords, Chevys, or Mopar. On this, the fourth day of the month of July, we celebrate American independence. Given the current political climate, however, I know why I’m not feeling very patriotic, but it turns out our American car companies aren’t very patriotic either.

Remember a time when you could get a manual gearbox in an all-wheel drive car and send it down a dusty trail for maximum fun? Those were the good days, and when rally racing and hot hatches hit their peak in the 1980s and 1990s, nothing made you feel more like a rally driver than the combination of AWD and a manual gearbox. But times have changed, the manual has fallen out of favor, and hot hatches, well, while there were once nearly a dozen or more to choose from, we're now down to just three or four genuine contenders. But of those that still remain, only one gives you that combination of a shift-it-yourself gearbox and drive to all four corners: the Toyota GR Corolla.

The history of the Jeep Wagoneer is a little strange. Since it first hit the market for the 1963 model year, it has gone through a lot of evolution. For six decades, Jeep has utilized that name to mean different things, shifting between being its own model of SUV and being a high-level trim for a different SUV like the Grand Cherokee. The company firmly reestablished the Wagoneer as its own vehicle once again for the 2022 model year, and with the electric Wagoneer S reportedly on the way in the fall of 2024, it seems like Jeep has finally committed to this SUV after it being just a branding tactic at certain points in its history.
