Editor Cappa thinks crossword puzzles make Jp look like a real magazine. That's awesome news! The editor of Jp magazine endorses Jp magazine! We think a seal is forthcoming for the cover of future issues.
On that note, this month's game is a crossword puzzle and the theme is Jeepmakes, models, packages, designations, trim levels, and concepts. Simply put: Jeeps. Since the beginning of time, we've seen alphabet soup (M38A1, SR, SL, TJ, S, and X), misleading one-worder soup (Custom, Cowboy, Icon, Special), and-WTF soup (Total Exposure, Olympic Edition, and...Mountain Biker). Many others are in this puzzle. Polish up your thinking bone (not a euphemism) and see if you can fill in these squares.Answers on page 76.
