1978 Yellow Jeep Cj7 304cc V8 on 2040-cars
Imperial Beach, California, United States

So your looking for a Jeep. What can I tell you about mine so you buy it? Well, for one are you worth selling to? Just by looking at the pictures you already know if this is something you can handle. For most people I would say no, you probably can't handle this. Stop reading now! Go back to your creature comforts, your heated seats, and your Onstar. This is not for you.
This is a Jeep for the man with soul. The man that thinks imports should be deports and American should be the standard in America. This is American! In fact the motor is a AMC 304 V8. (American Motor Corporation). Can't be more American then that. If your afraid of some rust this is probably not for you. This Jeep has been rolling through rain sleet sand mud and snow since 1978 and it still rolls on her 33" commuter crushers like a champ. If you plan on only using it to go to the local Starbucks save yourself the grief from me telling you to go kick rocks. This isn't the vehicle to put Weathertec floor mats in. What are you keeping clean? Dirty is the concern of weaker men. This baby is Rhino lined through out the cab with drain holes in the floor. Mud or blood. Just wash it out. When your bleeding blasting through some remote Baja mountains being chased by bandits because you just slept with the local drug lords daughter you haven't got time to kick the dirt off your heels before getting in. Drive through the carwash with the top down later preferably in the US so Montezuma stays in Mexico. I digress. I think you get the point. Soul my friends. Save the fear for when your in bumper to bumper traffic in your Prius going to your cubical just to do it again the next day. Now to give you the bad news so I don't have to answer all the questions about whats wrong with her. Nothing! I like her just the way she is. But for those who think a 1978 CJ7 should be perfect because its been sitting in a vacuum for the last 35 years, here you go. I don't want to sell to you anyway. She has a dent in the hood because at 50 miles a hour the hood flew up and smacked me in the face from wind. Note to self double check the latches after changing the oil. Gauges need replacing. I ride with a spare gas can anyway. They don't have Exxon out on the trail. The wiper motor needs replacing. Just put the windshield down and wear some googles and stop being fufu. You want her to respect you in the morning don't you. She is sold as is. There will be no: "I didn't know about this or that." You got questions I got answers. Well thats about it. If you've got soul or feel you need some more buy my Jeep. The price is fair. Now its time to change your life so bid like you got a pair!

Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango to lose color options temporarily
Wed, 19 Nov 2014In the market for a Jeep Grand Cherokee or Dodge Durango? Well, if you fancy a more expressive color for your new SUV, you'd better get your order in, or plan on waiting until well into 2015.
The SUVs will be limited to just four monochromatic shades - black, white, silver and gray - until at least February, thanks to an upgrade to the paint shop at the two vehicles' Jefferson North factory. For the Grand Cherokee, that means it's losing more than half its color palette while the Durango is dropping two-thirds of its color catalog.
The loss of colors is inconvenient, but the upgrade will have a slightly bigger effect on the overall supply of SUVs, as Chrysler will need to end its relentless build pace at the factory for a three-week shutdown starting on December 22. The good news for fans of the SUVs is that once the work is completed, we should see a gradual expansion of the color palettes for both the Durango and Grand Cherokee, beyond even what's offered now.
Jeep Wrangler gets the wide-track treatment
Mon, 07 Jan 2013When we read the tip about a Gulf-state diplomat in Rabat, Morocco who had supposedly "merged two Jeep Wranglers," we figured the two off-roaders were somehow linked front-to-back. Oh no. As you can see in the image above, taken from video of that vehicle actually traveling down the road and needing more than one lane to do it, the two Jeeps were put together side-by-side.
The seriously widebody truck is said to have six wheels, one at each corner and two in the middle. That's about all anyone seems to know about it at the moment, and that's probably enough - in these situations you know better than to ask why, just watch the video below.
Jeep Cherokee Trail Carver is a more rugged Trailhawk
Wed, 06 Nov 2013We briefly mentioned the Jeep Cherokee Trail Carver that was heading to SEMA last week when discussing the Mopar lineup set to be shown in Las Vegas. At the time, though, we weren't able to dive too deeply into details. But with SEMA in full swing, we were able to sneak over and grab some snaps of one of the first modified Cherokees we've seen. The Cherokee is, after all, kind of an unknown quantity in the modification department, being so new and featuring such a polarizing design. We were quite interested to see what Mopar could come up with.
Starting with the Trailhawk 4x4 and its 3.2-liter V6, the engine is fitted with a Mopar cold-air intake and a new exhaust, although it's not clear what sort of power boost has resulted. We'll admit, we were hoping Jeep and Mopar would get a bit more aggressive with the Cherokee's suspension (has anyone thrown a few-inch lift on the new Jeep yet?), but there's no mention of upgrades beyond the knobby, off-road tires. Those should do some good when the going gets rough, while rock rails are there to protect the Auburn Pearl paint on the body.
Speaking of that paint, it's complemented by an interesting graphics package in contrasting black and Crush Orange. The cabin sports Katzkin Amaretto leather seats, along with tech-friendly items like a wireless charging system for cellphones and wireless internet.
