I truly do hate to sell my first baby, but with the second "real" baby on the way I'm told that some things have to change. I love this jeep and have owned it for over 20 years. Needless to say we have been through a lot together. I don't think its lifted but I did put new 33 inch Mickey Thompson tires on it with no problems turning or rubbing over any bumps. It has a very aggressive stance which I like and is why I didn't want to put a lift kit on it. The tires are about 18 months old and have less than 500 miles on them. I really just use the jeep in the summer cruising to the store, bye the beach or around town (not many places to find mud in Chicago) but it has always been very reliable.  I have only done very 'minor" off-roading with it. Im sure a real mudder would call what I have done just puddle running. It has never been stuck or anything like that. I bought it from an elderly couple who used it to hunt morel mushrooms in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I believe it had milage in the high 30,000 or low 40,000 when I bought it from them. I was drawn to the jeep for many reasons, it was in great shape, low milage and, of course, the last year they made the CJ which has always been my favorite model(I went through 3 of them before I found this beauty). 

The jeep sat at my parents for several years while I finished up some school including graduate school. When I finally got to a point in my life where I could go get it and "enjoy" it again it started right up, couldn't believe just charged the battery and put in some gas, after like 7 years and she started right up. It has always been a great jeep. 
It still has the original steel body that has had some work done and will need some more at some point, I included the bad spots. But all in all the body is solid and it is a good steady driver, a very strong runner and just a great jeep.
This jeep would be ideal for someone kinda like me I guess. Its a good runner, looks great (I think) and its fun to work on a little here and there. I mean its not currently going to do serious rock crawling, and its not like the thing is in the garage every weekend. 
It is reliable and in "good" shape but could be "great" shape if someone had the desire to make it so. Even if not it would be a fun and dependable vehicle for some lucky person. Not to mention with the very low original miles it could catch the eye of a collector or someone who wanted to have it restored. Anyways thats not what im into jeeping for so good luck bidding!!   The Jeep really has to go with the second baby on the way so make me a REASONABLE!!!  Offer and hopefully we can work something out. Don't waste your time thinking I need gas or bread money and will sell it for $1000 or something silly. I love the thing and will put it in storage if I have too. Good luck!!!

North Carolina driver charged for flattening Trump sign

Thu, Mar 17 2016

Police in Wilmington, NC are investigating a viral video that shows a local man driving off the road to run over a Trump for President campaign sign. Julien Schuessler of Wilmington posted a video to Facebook on March 15 showing him driving his white Jeep off the road in a reckless manner to smash a Trump sign. He captioned the video, "I love having a Jeep sometimes." The video immediately went viral, reaching nearly a million views and 25,000 shares in less than twenty-four hours. Any elation Schuessler may have felt at having his video go viral was short lived, though. According to WWAY, Wilmington Police were tipped off to the existence of the video on the afternoon of March 16. They were, understandably, less than pleased. In an official tweet, WPD stated that they were aware of the video and were investigating. A spokesperson for the WPD stated that Schuessler faces multiple charges for his little stunt, including hit and run, reckless driving, and failure to maintain lane control. WWAY reached out to Schuessler for comment, but he has declined to respond.

Jeep does Renegade Chinese-style with Zi You Xia design concept

Sat, 19 Apr 2014

As we mentioned, Jeep is bringing a quartet of concepts to the Beijing Motor Show this year. Its largest model, the Grand Cherokee, is nowhere to be found, but its smallest is. That, of course, would be the new Renegade, which has been done up as the Zi You Xia design concept.
Taking its name from the Mandarin word (or words) for "rebel," the Zi You Xia takes its inspiration from the National Centre for the Performing Arts in Beijing, with a Warm Chocolate Gray paintjob with contrasting dark bronze trim. The roof, grille and mirror caps are color-keyed to match the rest of the exterior, riding on 20-inch alloys in the same dark bronze finish.
Inside it's all Piano Black, Anodized Copper and brown leather with plaid fabric inserts. Scope it out in the high-res image gallery above and the press release below.

Land Rover Defender V8 vs. Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 | V8 4x4s square off on paper

Thu, Feb 25 2021

Land Rover pulled the sheet off its 2022 Defender on Wednesday, introducing another high-performance V8 to the off-road segment. This time, it's a 5.0-liter, supercharged V8 boasting 518 horsepower. It will be available in both the Defender 90 and 110 models. In the former, Land Rover says it can crack off a 0-60 run in just 4.9 seconds on its way to a top speed of 149 mph. The long-wheelbase 110 will be a bit slower, but "slow" probably isn't the right adjective to use here at all.  But Land Rover isn't the only automaker offering a high-performance variant of its off-road SUV. While Jeep may have been sneered at for presenting the 2021 Wrangler Rubicon 392 on the heels of the 2021 Ford Bronco's introduction, it starts to make a lot more sense in this context. There's reportedly a high-output Bronco on the way, too, so call Jeep the dinosaur of the group all you want, but you can't put a price on being first. Well, you can, actually, but that's not the point.  Thankfully, both Land Rover and Jeep have provided enough specs for us to rough out a comparison chart. Since the Rubicon 392 is offered only in four-door guise, we're looking at the long-wheelbase Defender 110 as its direct competitor here. Have a look: There are a few caveats to mention off the top. For starters, we don't have an official curb weight for the V8-powered Defender yet, as Land Rover has not finalized its U.S. specs. We used the European figures (as provided by a spokesperson), which we expect to be accurate within about 50 pounds. The 0-60 time provided by Land Rover was for the Defender 90, which is smaller and somewhat lighter than the 110. When equipped with the inline-6, the Defender 110 is about a tenth of a second slower to 60 than the Defender 90, so we figure it should be roughly the same for the V8.  While the Defender has nearly 50 horsepower on the Wrangler, that advantage disappears thanks to the Land Rover V8's monster weight penalty, which will fall somewhere between 600 and 700 pounds depending on equipment. Yikes. On the flip side, however, the Land Rover has the edge in top speed, and it's not even close. Chalk that up to the tires, we suspect. We know for a fact that the Rubicon 392's all-terrains dictate its speed limiter; Jeep's own engineers told us as much. This could make for a (hypothetically) interesting drag race, as the Jeep's advantage off the line may evaporate once triple digits come into play.
