1985 Jeep Cj7 Renegade Hardtop 4x4 79k Mi 6cyl 5spd No Reserve on 2040-cars
No Reserve Auction!! 1985 Jeep CJ7 Renegade 79k Original Miles This Jeep CJ7 is a beautiful classic that gets a lot of attention when driving around town. Yesterday I drove it to the mountains twice, once without the hardtop and once with it. The Jeep drives great, no vibrations or shimmy and has no problems keeping up with traffic in town, on the highway or in the mountains. Engine: 258 4.2L 6cylinder motor that runs great, is very peppy and runs good. Overall the motor runs great, I don't notice any leaks on the ground after driving and it does not smoke. The carburetor needs some adjustment. When driving the rpms are a little high at stop signs almost as if the choke is not opening. The Valve cover gasket has the classic leak and the exhaust muffler/tail pipe could use replacing. Transmission/Transfer Case: 5spd T5 Manual Transmission that shifts perfect, no play in the transmission and no grinding or crunching. The Clutch is very tight and does not slip. The transfer case shifts easily in and out of 4x4. It is a Dana 300. Drivetrain/suspension: The Jeep drives excellent and has that soft tight stock suspension. There aren't any loud clunks or noises, it is very smooth. The drivetrain and suspension are completely stock. The power steering is super sensitive and the power brakes stop the jeep easily. Interior Controls/Switches: Everything in the interior works including the gauges, speedometer, odometer, wipers, blinkers, horn, cig lighter and heater. The heater cranks and blows hot. Paint/Body/Rust: The paint is Garnet Red Exterior with Renegade Striping. It appears that at one point it had been resprayed and the renegade decals were not installed at that point. The front driver fender needs fixing or replacement. The paint is beautiful and very reflective, shiny and lots of luster. The front grill/fenders and windshield frame have many sand chips. The body has rust spots on both rear quarters, both are a little larger then a silver dollar and there are a couple small blister spots under the decals. The body mounts are all very solid and not rusted thru. Overall very clean, the rear of the jeep does not show any rust near the tailgate or body mounts. Interior: The interior is beautiful, the Garnet Red interior is in excellent shape. The seats are incredibly clean and do not have any significant rips, tears or seem separations. The rear seat on the top has some small cuts. The carpet is in excellent condition, very clean without any stains or rips/tears. The drivers side floor under the carpet is rusted thru and will need to be cut out and a new floor installed or covered up. The interior paint is in great condition otherwise. The dash pad does have a few cuts in it too. The radio works and has the stock speakers behind the dash. Hardtop/Doors: The black hardtop has not been refinished and is the original. It is in great shape and could use a fresh coat of paint at some point. The doors do not have any rust, the windows roll up and down very easily and the locks work from the inside. Unfortunately I do not have a key for the doors, it disappeared. The wing windows open and close with ease and the seal tight. Overall: This is a beautiful Jeep and ready to go. With a little bit of TLC you could have a rare classic to enjoy for many years to come. The CJ7 is used and 29 years old it may have blemishes I didn't capture on my camera. I do my best to illustrate the condition, I may have missed something so be sure to ask all questions you have prior to bidding or winning the Jeep. The Jeep is being sold as is, where is, without warranty or guarantees. I am not required for your state emission or safety inspections including Colorado.

Editors’ Picks December 2022 | Genesis G90, Mazda3 and an old favorite
Mon, Jan 2 2023The last Editors' Picks collection of 2022 consists of picks from three different segments. We recently got our first shot at the 2023 Genesis G90, which instantly found a warm place in our heart. Plus, a couple of favorites from years past came through. Look out for even more ratings come the new year as a ton of fresh metal comes onto the market. Tons of totally new EVs and sports cars may have hit the streets in 2022, but there are even more new and exciting cars coming. In case you missed our previous Editors' Picks posts, here’s a quick refresher on whatÂ’s going on here. We rate all the new cars we drive with a 1-10 score. Cars that are exemplary in their respective segments get EditorsÂ’ Pick status. Those are the ones weÂ’d recommend to our friends, family and anybody whoÂ’s curious and asks the question. The list that youÂ’ll find below consists of every car we rated in December month that earned an EditorsÂ’ Pick. 2023 Genesis G90 2023 Genesis G90 View 55 Photos Quick take: The Genesis G90 is now a full-size sedan without any major compromises versus its competition. It rides beautifully, features a tech-forward but still usable interior and even has a powerful and refined powertrain. Score: 8.5 What it competes with: Lexus LS 500, BMW 7 Series, Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Audi A8 Pros: Gorgeous design, efficient and powerful powertrain, super-luxurious interior, great value Cons: Doesn't handle as well as competitors From the editors: Road Test Editor Zac Palmer — "The Genesis G90 is all-new for 2023, and what a stupendous luxury sedan it is. The mild-hybrid twin-turbo V6 powertrain is smooth and powerful for effortless acceleration. Its air suspension and electronically controlled dampers waft you over poor pavement with nary a cabin disturbance. Every last luxury you might want for is present from auto-opening doors, massaging seats and rear wheel steering. It's all there for a price that is shockingly low versus the leading German luxury sedans, making it all the more impressive." In-depth analysis: 2023 Genesis G90 First Drive Review: No more compromises  2023 Mazda3 Mazda3 Hatch front three quarter View 57 Photos Quick take: The Mazda3 is a blast to drive and has an interior that rivals entry-level luxury cars. It's only real weakness is a slightly tight rear seat and cargo space.
Chrysler Recalling Nearly 907,000 Cars, SUVs
Fri, Oct 17 2014Nearly 907,000 Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep SUVs and cars are being recalled for alternators that can fail and heated power mirror wiring that can short and cause minor fires. The recalls, posted Thursday by U.S. safety regulators, push the total number of recalls so far this year 544, totaling a record of more than 52 million vehicles. The largest of Thursday's recalls covers nearly 470,000 Jeep Grand Cherokees, Chrysler 300s, and Dodge Chargers, Challengers and Durangos from the 2011 through 2014 model years. The alternators can fail, causing the 3.6-liter V6 engines to stall unexpectedly. The problem also can cause the electrical system to fail, as well as knock out power-assisted steering, antilock brakes and electronic stability control. It can even cause fire or smoke, according to documents Chrysler filed with the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. NHTSA opened an investigation into the problem in July, and Chrysler began its own probe in August. The company analyzed warranty complaints and alternators that had failed. The alternator generates electricity to recharge the battery and run other devices. Chrysler investigators traced the problem to heat fatigue in an alternator diode. Chrysler said it received 322 complaints about the problem, while 55 people complained to NHTSA. The company said it knows of one crash related to the problem, but no injuries or fires. The company will replace the alternators with upgraded versions for free. Owners will be notified in November. The company says customers who see warning lights or suspect a problem should contact their dealers. The recall affects cars and SUVs sold mainly in the U.S. and Canada, but some were sold in Mexico and overseas markets. The second recall covers almost 437,000 Jeep Wranglers from 2011 through 2013. Water can find its way into the heated power mirror wiring harness and cause corrosion. That can cause a short and could cause a minor fire and smoke, as well as cause loss of function of the mirror. The problem was discovered in February after three Wranglers in Canada were damaged. Chrysler says it has 26 complaints about the problem, but it knows of no fires, crashes or injuries. Dealers will move the wiring and install a protective shield to keep water out at no cost to owners, starting in December. Most of the Wranglers are in the U.S., Canada and Mexico, but more than 78,000 were sold overseas.
