Apparently San Antonio. Not sure where the talk of Mexico came from.

This is what they call "Final." One final inspection and wash before it gets shipped to a dealership. Every car made is sold before it is made..

I’m pretty sure I’ve seen Mexico made ones here. Might have to look around for a Texas made one I guess.

Is that a 1996 Gold edition GC, Limited with the 4.0?

And the regular Cherokee hung around until..what, 2001? 2005? You are absolutely correct, it was same basic rugged SUV as the one introduced 1988 I think, with a better trans.. GC was "better" unless you wanted "more rugged" or something like that. I had a Niner for a month, flipped it.

I have not seen a Grand Wagoneer in the wild yet.
The "regular" Cherokee ran from 84-01.

The front suspensions are identical and interchangeable. Transfer cases can also swap between the two. The Grand Cherokees ride a lot nicer due to having the rear coils and 500-1000 pounds on the Cherokee.
 
It's supposed to indicate the vehicle being more upscale, hence the grand moniker.

I don't think it's confusing, though I do think they should have tried to make them look different, like they did with the Cherokee and Grand Cherokee.

Even in the 90's, when the Cherokee/Grand Cherokee looked more similar (and were similar in size) there were still enough differences to make it obvious:

Upscale ? The neighbors are running out of room to upgrade 👀
