1978 Jeep CJ5 Four Wheel Drive in Excellent Condition.

65,000 miles.
I have over $3,500.00 of receipts from the last two years.
When I purchased it, the Jeep was leaking oil very badly 
from the rear main seal. My mechanic said the seal was
dried out from sitting for so long in the previous seller's 
garage. Once the oil leaking problem was solved, the Jeep
has been a pleasure to drive. My mechanic repainted the
oil pan (it looks perfect), but I told him not to paint the valve
cover because I wanted it to stay original. The underside
of the Jeep is beautiful, with only very tiny spots of rust in
minor places.
The armor-plating was installed before I owned it, and was 
not put on to hide any rust, but to reinforce the body and to
make it look cool. There is no rust underneath the armor-plating
and it can be removed very easily.
16 inch Eagle wheels with a spare off-road tire and Eagle wheel.
I unbolted the spare tire and carrier off of the back of the Jeep
to make it easier to access the tailgate.  It also comes with a
large, steel basket to carry coolers, etc. which gets inserted into
the trailer hitch sleeve.
It has a wonderful three speed, manual transmission that is geared
very nicely for driving. I have never had it on the beach, and the 
previous owner never took it on the beach either. It has always
been garaged. 
The soft top is not in good condition (the plastic windows have
yellowed and cracked, but the side doors are in excellent condition 
(see picture of doors).
It has a new gas tank, new hoses, brake lines and other small 
improvements.  
I just purchased a brand-new Best-Top bikini top for it, and it 
can be put on or removed in seconds. It fits very well, and 
does a great job of protection. I like it much more than the full soft top.
This is the first CJ5 I have ever owned, and despite the lift kit and
large tires, it rides much better than I expected. It is very original 
and has always been adult-owned.
Reserve price is under $5,000.00.
This Jeep is really fun to drive (I drive it to work almost everyday), 
and people love it wherever I take it.
Serious bidders can call me at: (631) 513-9508 with any questions.
The Jeep is for sale locally and is sold in "as-is" condition. 
I reserve to end the auction early, and bidders are encouraged to
inspect the Jeep before they bid on it.  The CJ5 is located in
East Hampton, New York.
Thank you.

2015 Jeep Renegade brings the cute

Tue, 04 Mar 2014

The jig is up, the noose is out, we finally found it: the Renegade that Jeep has made, retrieved for a bounty.
Okay, enough of that. Meet the Renegade - Jeep's cute little compact crossover that makes its official debut here at the Geneva Motor Show. We recently brought you a massive Deep Dive into what makes the Renegade tick, and we're now getting our first live look at the tiny Jeep, live from its coming out party in Switzerland.
With the exception of associate editor Jonathon Ramsey, who doesn't know what he's talking about, we at Autoblog are kind of smitten with the little Jeep - it's a really unique package, featuring details that really make it kind of special (notice that jerry can pattern in the taillights, for example). Jeep will offer the Renegade with either a 1.4-liter turbo-four (from the Fiat 500L) or a 2.4-liter naturally aspirated four (from the Dodge Dart), with either a six-speed manual transmission or a nine-speed automatic. There will even be a Trailhawk version with four-wheel drive - properly trail-rated, to boot. The Renegade also features a nifty new My Sky removable roof panel system, giving this little cutie sort of a baby Wrangler feel.

Fiat Chrysler posts record Q3 profit thanks to U.S. trucks and Jeep

Wed, Oct 28 2020

MILAN — A rebound in car production in Fiat Chrysler on Wednesday reported record third-quarter earnings as production returned to nearly pre-pandemic levels. The Italian-American automaker, which is finalizing its full merger with French rival PSA Peugeot, reported a net profit in the three months ending Sept. 30 of $1.4 billion (1.2 billion euros). That compares with a loss of 179 million euros a year earlier. The carmaker reported adjusted earnings before tax and interest in North America of 2.5 billion euros. That offset deepening losses in Europe, Asia and at its Maserati luxury marquee. Latin America, the only other region to post a profit, saw it narrow by two-thirds to 46 million euros. “Our record results were driven by our teamÂ’s tremendous performance in North America,” CEO Mike Manley said in a statement. Overall, the carmaker said global earnings before tax and interest were a record 2.3 billion euros despite a 6% fall in revenues to 26 billion euros. Global shipments were down 3%, due largely to plant retooling in North American to produce the new Jeep Grand Wagoneer in the luxury SUV segment and the discontinuation of the Dodge Grand Caravan classic minivan. Fiat Chrysler announced earlier Wednesday that its merger with PSA Peugeot is on track to be finalized by the end of the first quarter of 2021, as planned. To meet regulatory concerns, the French carmaker is selling a small stake in a components maker to get below 40% ownership. The new automaker, to be called Stellantis, will be the fourth biggest producer in the world. Earnings/Financials Chrysler Dodge Fiat Jeep RAM Citroen Peugeot

Chrysler recalls 88,888 Darts, Durangos, and Grand Cherokees for two separate issues

Fri, Nov 18 2016

Chrysler announced a pair of recalls for the Dodge Dart, Durango, and Jeep Grand Cherokee. They're unrelated, as the Dart recall concerns windshield washer pumps, and the Durango and Grand Cherokee recall is for fuel rails. But, as Automotive News discovered, the number of cars involved in both totals up to 88,888 cars, which is rather bizarre. Breaking down the coincidental number, we first have 34,633 2016 Dodge Durangos and Jeep Grand Cherokees recalled because fasteners on the intake manifold can come into contact with the fuel rail on some vehicles. This could lead to a fuel leak, and a subsequent fire hazard. Chrysler believes only 30 vehicles will have this defect, but it's inspecting any that could have had the issue. The other part of the 88,888 cars recalled in total consists of 54,255 2016 Dodge Darts. The windshield washer pumps on affected cars could short-circuit the wiper system, disabling the wipers. Chrysler will notify owners of all vehicles, and will replace any faulty parts at no cost to the owner. Owners can also contact Chrysler's customer care center at 1-800-853-1403.
