Default Trim levels?

Can anyone tell me what the difference between the Pioneer, Wagoneer, Custom and Chief trim levels are? I have a pioneer, a supposedly "luxury" trimmed car...and yet, it seems identical to the chief a friend has, even the same engine, a V6. What is the deal?

Besides styling and an upgraded interior, I think all the trims are the same except the country which was lifted and came with the dana 44. I am not sure on all the other trims. (This was posted by some one else earlier).......................................... .................................................. .......... My '91 limited, came from factory with; Pw windows, pw locks, pw mirrors, pw leather seats, Lattice style Machined sliver faced alloy rims (I hate them gold ones), fog lights, overhead console w/ comp. & temp., courtesy lights, vanity lighted sun visors, intermittent wipers, gold emblems pkg., premium stereo pkg. (Which sounded good in it's day) privacy glass (tinted & mirrored) front air dam, winter pkg., limited pin stripping, The only thing I don't have is a sun roof, Which I'm glad because they leak.

No, most of them came with the Chrysler 8.25" underneath. I don't think I've ever heard of any Countrys that came with a D44 from the factory...nor have I heard of them being lifted. Mine certainly wasn't. I think the big difference in all the trim levels is mostly interior and a little bit of exterior cladding/trim. No performance differences (with the exception of differences in the rear axles, ie D35 compared to 8.25").

I have a 96 Country and it has a 8.25 rear and was not lifted at all,until I got ahold of it. The country came with a softer suspension and rode alot smoother than all the others. Also came with wood trim[plastic wood] and power group,overhead console,sound bar,cruise,tilt,light group and mine has leather. I dont know if they all had leather or not.

I believe it has to listed as having a "up country suspension pkg." Which should be a 2" factory lift. Includes 6.5 arched leaf springs, Longer shocks, Taller front coils, and factory skid plates underneath. If you look in Mopar/Jeep parts catalog, there listed in the suspension section. (A total of 31 parts, in the pkg. Probably includes all the bushings, u bolts, etc.)
