Hmm got any numbers for Khaki Rubicons in 06? I wonder how unique mine is.
LOL I like it, although entry to the rear still isn't that dignified.LJ = Limousine Jeep

Technically your LJ is really a TJ Unlimited

A guy on the FB group LJ Nation reached out to Jeep and was able to get the colors and numbers produced for the LJs production run. So for 06 Khaki Rubicons from Canada.... 36! Wow, pretty low number considering in the US they produced 1285 in 2006.
Nice drop that number even more when you consider it's an auto and the fact that it was the last TJ on the lot the guy could find as he didn't like the JK and I bet I have one of the last ones sold in the country.

I'm down for a SE sub. Gonna be pretty small though, I think there are only 3-4 of us here
New SE owner here. Does SE stand for Special Edition? I don't know, just a guess... still a newbie jeep owner
I think it stands for "Short Engine"!!! :risas3:New SE owner here. Does SE stand for Special Edition? I don't know, just a guess... still a newbie jeep owner

It stands for Silly Engineers as in, who thought this was a good idea?
The SE has bean counter stink all over it. The engineers all wanted to do the Rubicon...Accounting and Marketing is who said we need a stripped down 4 cylinder for the "mass market"
Exactly how "stripped down" is an SE? I always assumed it meant the base engine was the 4-popper, but that was about the only difference. So, like a/c was not an option, or something? It's not like everything else came with power windows, power door locks, and power seats. What else could they omit that the other trim packages have?
Not a “chassis code” because it wasn’t used in marketing material? You realize that is assbackwards, right? Engineering makes the product, marketing then figures out how to sell it.
It was marketed as TJ-LWB outside the US, maybe it should be called that?

I really hope you are not serious. It sounds like a case of JKU envy to me. Just go buy one of those and quit trying to launch a one-man campaign against a whole community that has used a term for a decade and a half.

Let's not do an LJ subforum. Chris would probably give it a name like "TJU General Discussion." No self respecting LJ owner would ever visit.
Agreed

Mine are covered by my rocker guards (Warrior). When I repaint, eventually, I won’t be re-adding that sticker either.

Just going from memory here (bought my TJ 17 yrs ago), finding to old brochures online would give you better answers:
Smallest engine, smallest axles, smallest wheels, no fog lights, no cruise, no AC, no hardtop, no LSD/lockers..... seems like there was something else it was missing too though.

SE: Standard Edition...? I know SE could be Sports Edition on some cars but since there is already a Sport that would be my guess on a game show.

@Chris, TLU??
It's an LJ. Officially or unofficially, it has become Jeep vernacular.
I think you've had too much fun this Memorial Day.... :drink9:
Unbelievable... WOW
I was being sarcastic!!! :risas3:

On most vehicles SE stands for Special Edition I always figured. In the case of the Wrangler though, I’m going to have to assume it meant “Standard”.
I'm not sure where there is a place to be offended. TLU doesn't translate into anything coherent, so clearly it was a joke given its context in the discussion.
