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!!!

EU finds Jeep Grand Cherokee and Suzuki Vitara break emissions rules

Thu, Jan 23 2020

AMSTERDAM — Fiat Chrysler's Jeep Grand Cherokee and Suzuki's Vitara diesel models both break emissions rules and must be fixed or face a ban on sales across Europe, the Dutch road authority ruled on Thursday. The RDW authority, acting as the reference regulator for across the European Union, said Jeep had developed a software fix and that the authority had ordered the company to recall the model across Europe to roll it out. It added Suzuki had yet to find a credible solution for the Vitara. "Suzuki must come with adequate improvement measures or the RDW will begin the process of revoking its European type approval," the RDW said in a statement, adding it had also started the process of revoking approval for the Jeep Grand Cherokee as a "precautionary measure." Regulators across the world have been testing diesel models since Volkswagen admitted in 2015 that it used illegal software to cheat U.S. emissions tests. The RDW said it had found both the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Vitara had used "prohibited emissions strategies" that led them to emit higher levels of harmful nitrogen oxide (NOx) on the road than under testing conditions. Dutch State Secretary for Infrastructure, Stientje van Veldhoven, said in a letter to parliament she would inform prosecutors of the RDW's findings. Fiat Chrysler and Suzuki could not immediately be reached for comment. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

Fiat Chrysler recalls 4.8 million U.S. vehicles for cruise control defect

Fri, May 25 2018

WASHINGTON - Fiat Chrysler said on Friday it is recalling 4.8 million U.S. vehicles over a defect that could prevent drivers from deactivating cruise control and warned owners not to use the function until they get software upgrades. The Italian-American automaker said no injuries or crashes are related to the large recall campaign but said it had one report of a driver of a 2017 Dodge Journey rental car unable to deactivate the cruise control. Fiat Chrysler, which in 2015 was hit with penalties from U.S. regulators totaling $175 million for safety lapses, did not say how much the recalls would cost. The recall addresses what Fiat Chrysler called an "extremely rare" series of events that could lead to drivers being unable to cancel cruise control. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said on Friday it "strongly encourages vehicle owners to follow a warning" to stop using cruise control on the recalled vehicles until repaired. NHTSA said drivers could overpower the system by forcefully applying the brakes until the vehicle stopped. Fiat Chrysler also said the vehicle could be stopped by shifting into neutral and braking. Fiat Chrysler shares fell more than 2 percent in premarket trading in New York on the recall. Fiat Chrysler noted that at times cruise control systems automatically initiate acceleration to help vehicles maintain driver-selected speeds, including when going up an incline. If an acceleration occurs simultaneously with a short-circuit in a specific electrical network, a driver could be unable to deactivate the function. Fiat Chrysler said vehicles may be placed in park once stopped, at which point cruise-control is canceled. The recall involves a group of gasoline-powered vehicles with automatic transmissions from various model years built from 2014 through the 2019 model year. Most of the vehicles being recalled cover the 2014-2018 model years. Among the vehicles being recalled are the Chrysler 200, Chrysler 300, Chrysler Pacifica, Dodge Charger, Dodge Challenger, Dodge Journey, Dodge Durango, Jeep Cherokee, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Jeep Wrangler and Ram 1500, 2500 and 3500 pickup trucks and Ram 3500/4500/5500 cab chassis trucks. Fiat Chrysler made the announcement going into the busy Memorial Day weekend, which traditionally kicks off the summer driving season.
