 Jeep Cherokee Sport 4WD  A/C  Towing package  2000

We’re moving so need to sell our 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport with 4 Wheel Drive; A/C works well; towing package.  This vehicle has a few dings, but is in good condition in and out.  Started as a federal government vehicle, so was well maintained for most of its life. It has 221,696 miles.

Everything works that we know of except:
1.  Rear passenger window sometimes works only with either the window control or the driver control, but not both at first.  
2.  Radio works; we have never tried the CD player.  
3.  Rear window defrost button must be held down for defrost function to work.  
4.  We took the ‘covers’ off the wheel wells since the over-size tires rubbed with a heavy load, but still have them if you want to put them back on.  Since the tires are too large, they rub against the side sometimes when reversing and make a grinding sound. This also happens when 4x4 is engaged. 
5.  Headliner is loose - it’s all still there, but is definitely loose.  
6.  It was idling a bit strangely for a while, but I think when the new coil pack was installed it helped the idle, because I haven’t noticed it idling strange for months.            
7.  The one noticeable area of damage is on the passenger side, in front of the rear wheel well and is noticeable; the other small dent is on the front driver fender and shows in the main photo.  Other dings and scratches as expected with age.
8.  One of the headlights is dim and needs to be replaced; we have a new one, but haven’t installed it yet.  
9.  If you let it idle too long, it will overheat (in the summer) so I think they were made with too small a radiator - had the same problem with a Ford once; it didn't overheat while driving it around.  
Otherwise, that we know of, everything is OK.  Interior is in good shape.  Original seat covers and carpeting are all in good shape.  Pulls a trailer with no trouble at all.  4WD works.  Tires are excellent.  There is virtually no rust - very light surface rust on some suspension - see photo.  Email for more photos.

We are not mechanics, car is as is. We have listed the problems we are aware of. We are currently using the car and have no problems with it, but have no idea how it will perform if driven a long distance (we drove it to Maine from New Jersey a year ago however, and it was fine apart from overheating a few times in traffic or when idling), especially in hot weather (due to the over-heating problem), so please be aware that practically ALL used cars will have something that may need to be repaired.

$200 deposit via paypal within 24 hours of close of bidding, the rest as cash on pickup which must be on or before the weekend of July 26/27th.  207-255-3839.  Advertised locally so we reserve the right to cancel bidding.

IF YOU CAN'T PAY THE DEPOSIT IN ONE DAY, AND THE REST OF THE AMOUNT WITHIN ONE WEEK, PLEASE DO NOT BID. IF WE DO NOT RECEIVE THE DEPOSIT ON TIME, CAR WILL BE RE-LISTED OR SOLD TO SOMEONE ELSE.

Please note that car is located in downeast Maine.

Please check description periodically in case we add anything new within the next few days. If listing suddenly ends, it's because it was sold locally.

NYIAS: 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk, ooh-rah!

Tue, Apr 5 2016

I was very happy to see Jeep offer a stand-alone, off-road-oriented model to the Grand Cherokee for 2017, the Trailhawk. This is not the first time for a GC Trailhawk, as they offered a limited run a few years ago to see if there might be a market for such a model. Looks like there is, as there are Trailhawk models for the Cherokee and Renegade, and now the Grand Cherokee as well. Just to be clear here, Jeep has always offered off-road ready packages (tow hooks, one inch more ground clearance, skid plates) for the Grand Cherokee and Cherokee in the past. They were called "Up Country," or more recently, "Off Road" groups. That was all well and good but, at least where I was living, almost impossible to find. Rarely would you ever find one so-equipped on dealer lots. If you ever saw one on the street, most likely the owner special-ordered it. Having said that, now that I'm living by the beach, I am seeing a few Up Country-equipped older Jeeps; not many, but more than I've seen in the past. As to the new Cherokee and Renegade Trailhawks; I'm seeing a bunch of them. It took a little while for the public to discover this trim level, but now I see them everywhere. Must be the orange tow hooks? Speaking of orange tow hooks... I'm not a big fan of them. Tow hooks for sure, orange ones, not so much; same with the matte black hood decal, not a fan. If I were ever to get a Trailhawk, it would be either dark gray or black, as that effectively hides the hood decal. So Jeep has packaged the Trailhawk as a premium model within each respective model line. While I fully understand the thinking, I do wish Jeep would also offer an entry-level off-road model, one with all the Trailhawk off-road goodness, but minus all the visual and luxury fluff. A lot of off-roaders don't want to pay, or can't pay top dollar for stuff they don't want or need. As to a name, how about "Trail," that being Trailhawk minus the "hawk;" or perhaps "Pioneer?" That's an old name from Cherokees of yesteryear. Back then the Pioneer was positioned as a mid-low level model. I think either name would work well for a back-to-basics-off-road-focused Cherokee and/or Renegade. Content it like the current entry-level Sport or mid-level Latitude models, but include the Trailhawk's off-road prowess. The Grand Cherokee should probably pass on that suggestion, as it would run counter to that model's high-end image. Related Video: Image Credit: Jeep Jeep open road

Jeepster name may be used for Fiat-based baby Jeep

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

In 1948, Willys-Overland, the forbearers of Jeep, built a vehicle called the Jeepster. It was a funky little thing, designed as a mix of the more rugged Jeeps that came before with what was then a modern car, which arguably makes it the world's first crossover. The name was later revived from 1966 to 1972, which means for Jeep enthusiasts, it has some history.
Now, the modern Jeep brand may revive the Jeepster name for a new product, likely based on Fiat bones, that will slot in at the bottom of the brand's range underneath the soon-to-depart Compass and Patriot. The report comes from Australia's Drive, which cites a dealer source that has seen the vehicle.
That same dealer confirmed there is a link between the Jeepster and the rumored Fiat 500X, and that the former will be available in both front and all-wheel-drive variants. The source also claims both gas and diesel engines will be available, although as this is an Aussie site, we shouldn't take that to mean we'll get a diesel Jeepster in the US.

MotorWeek reviews '83 American Motors lineup

Wed, Mar 18 2015

The 30th anniversary of American Motors' 1987 sale to Chrysler by Renault is just a few years away. AMC is long dead, but for its latest peek in the archives, MotorWeek winds back the clock to somewhat happier times. Take a look at the entire AMC lineup from 1983, including its models from Jeep and Renault. The Jeeps, and to a lesser extent, the AMC Eagle, enjoy a cult following today, but it's amazing how many of these other vehicles are now practically forgotten. Even the big debut in '83 of the Renault Alliance is largely ignored. Although with a ludicrous amount of body roll and a 55-horsepower 1.4-liter engine, it's probably rightly buried.
