Here is a rare collector grade find. A completely original paint (AMC Firecracker Red) and decaled (Levi tan) Jeep CJ Renegade. This Jeep is the LAST YEAR for the Levi Renegade package and it maintains all of its original features.  This Jeep has not been restored and has not been repainted.  If you are looking for an original collector Jeep, look no further, and purchase with confidence.  I have been a Jeep collector for 20+ years.  This Jeep is one of the nicest and most optioned/original Renegade's I have come across.  The Jeep has just over 50k original miles and you can still listen to the original AM factory radio.  This particular Renegade has the factory/dealer optioned Ramsey... winch still works.  There is absolutely no rust or rot on this vehicle. If your looking for an original AMC era Jeep, this is it. This is truly a Jeep enthusiasts and automobile collector's masterpiece. In the CJ Jeep world, these are not found often! It has a very rare combination of the desirable 304 V8 with an automatic/quadra-trac transmission.  This vehicle was special ordered for a retired attorney in Idaho.  I purchased the Jeep from the adult son of a family friend.  The Jeep has a neat history, so feel free to call and inquire about it.  This color combination is considered very desirable.  The American Motor Company actually used this color scheme in an advertisements like the one pictured below. The attached pictures speak for themselves; however, if you would like to request others, feel free to call.  

The vehicle shifts and drives very smooth. It drives STRAIGHT down the interstate at 70 MPH.  Again, this is a great driving Jeep that ANYONE can enjoy.  The decals/paint are original and have GREAT PATINA! The frame is straight and there are are no signs of damage or repairs.  The frame and tub is in EXCELLENT condition (see pictures).   You will look long and hard to find another cleaner, more original, Jeep CJ in existence!  Both sets of wheels will be included if the "Buy it Now" price is met.  Please, Call seller before making an offer through EBAY.

Please call if you have ANY questions or would like to make an offer.

2015 Jeep Cherokee finds a bit more fuel mileage thanks to stop/start and aero tweaks

Mon, 06 Oct 2014

Just a year after it burst onto the scene, Jeep has already made a pretty substantial addition to its V6-powered Cherokee, which has proven to be an extremely popular seller so far for the brand, adding a new stop-start system for the midsize, off-road-ready CUV.
The addition of stop-start included a few aerodynamic tweaks to the Cherokee's polarizing body, resulting in a wallet-pleasing increase in fuel economy. According to the EPA, the front-drive, V6-powered Jeep will now return 21 miles per gallon in the city and 29 mpg on the highway, up from 19 city and 28 highway. Four-wheel-drive, V6-powered Cherokees, meanwhile, will now return 20 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway, up from 19 mpg in the city and 27 mpg.
With 271 horsepower, 239 pound-feet of torque and these newly enhanced figures, it's refreshing to see a larger, naturally aspirated engine that is still able to take the fight to today's crop of small-displacement, turbocharged four-cylinders.

Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014

Thu, 27 Feb 2014

Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.

Fiat Chrysler wins top Total Quality Award for first time

Mon, Jul 20 2015

The Strategic Vision Total Quality Awards are 20 years old in 2015, and Chrysler has never topped the awards before. Until now, that is. Fiat Chrysler takes the overall award on the corporate level with six segment leaders from Fiat, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram. The Fiat 500 won Small Multi-Function Car, the 500e won Small Alternative Powertrain, the Dodge Challenger tied at the top in the Specialty Coupe category alongside the very un-coupe Mini Cooper Countryman, the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited took the Entry SUV category, the Dodge Durango won in Mid-Size SUV, and Ram took the overall in Best Non-Luxury Brand. The accolade means FCA has gone from one segment winner in 2010 to overall victory in five years. Cars have gotten so good, says Strategic Vision, that it is harder than ever to win. In fact, says the group, 18 years ago 85 percent of all vehicle brands had more than half a problem per vehicle. This year, no brand has more than half a problem per vehicle. The organization measures "over 155 specific aspects of the customer's experience," and scores are based on input from more than 46,000 customers. Other notables in and near the winner's circle include Volkswagen and General Motors, who tied for second place on the corporate scale, one point behind FCA. The Mini Cooper Roadster scored the highest of any model, the Corvette Stingray Convertible and Coupe scored the second- and third-highest. The Chevrolet Colorado is the first domestic Standard Pickup winner in more than ten years, and the Nissan Titan carried the Full-Size Pickup category. The press release below has all the details on how winners and losers are selected, and the full list of automakers and how they finished. "The Customer's 'Total' Experience Defines Quality, Fiat Chrysler Scores Highest in Total Quality," says Strategic Vision The 2015 Total Quality Awards® SAN DIEGO, Friday, July 17, 2015 — Unknown to many, when some consumer research firms rank a car company's quality performance they often do so by simply "counting problems." In the past, this may have been acceptable, but in today's modern and efficient manufacturing world the difference between the worst brand and best brand is LESS than half-a-problem per vehicle. Thus, any "quality ranking" based on this method is severely lacking in the complete picture of the "Total" Quality experience that customers actually use to judge their product ownership.
