The Wrangler is back in the pink.
Jeep has announced the relaunch of a Tuscadero Pink paint option for the SUV.
Its name is a tip of the hat to the “Happy Days” character Pinky Tuscadero, Fonzie’s motorcycle-riding mechanic girlfriend.
The color was first made available for the 2021 Wrangler.

Jeep sold around 30,000 Wranglers in the color the first time around, and is this time offering it on the Sport, Sport S, Willys, Sahara, Rubicon, Rubicon X and Rubicon 392 trims for $895.

A Tuscadero Pink Rubicon 392 is likely to become a collectible as the V8-powered model is being discontinued this year.
Jeep is sending it off with a run of 3,700 Rubicon 392 Final Edition trucks, with 3,300 earmarked for the U.S., 300 for Canada and 100 for the rest of the world.

The $101,890 trim features commemorative badging, and extra half-inch lift that provides it with 11.6 inches of ground clearance, a triple-hoop grille guard and an 83-piece Mopar tool kit.
‘JEEP’ WAGONEER AND GRAND WAGONEER RETURNING
Jeep doesn’t have any plans to replace the V8, which is being phased out from all of the American Stellantis brands, including Chrysler, Dodge and Ram’s light duty lineup.
In most cases, it has been supplanted by a new turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six-cylinder known as the Hurricane, which apparently does not fit in the current Wrangler.
But that’s not so say a couple of intrepid mechanics like Fonzie and Pinky couldn’t get the job done.
