The grand cherokee along with the Eagle Premere were in "pilot production' The sale of AMc took place in Dec of 87 a few months into 88 production. The last "true Amc was the AMC Eagle that actually was considered an 1988. The Grand Cherekee was an Amc designed truck, but not Amc produced for retail sale. Amc had begun to turn the corner with Jeep sales, and the last quarter of 1987 Was profitable for Amc even though it wasnt released, because of the certainly of the "merger' with Chrysler.
