:The early Tuxedo Park models were trim lines designed to make the CJ "more comfortable and appealing to the general public."<ref>{{cite book |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=zTsAbTJB5RIC&q=Jeep+Tuxedo+Park+Mark&pg=PA82 |page=82 |title=Jeep Collector's Library |first=Jim |last=Allen |publisher=Motorbooks |year=2004 |isbn=9780760319796 |access-date=9 December 2015 |author-link=Jim Allen (4x4 writer) |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160603184045/https://books.google.com/books?id=zTsAbTJB5RIC&pg=PA82&dq=Jeep+Tuxedo+Park+Mark |archive-date=3 June 2016 |url-status = live}}</ref> However, the Tuxedo Park Mark IV was claimed as a separate model from the other CJ series (marked in 1965 as the "Universal"), with more differences than past models.
