Exterior Condition

The exterior of this vehicle is in STUNNING condition for the year and has been well cared for. The paint is pretty much brand new as you will see in the pics and video as we performed a paint correction service on it. The body doesnt show any major damage and looks GREAT!!! I tried to include as many pictures as possible so you can see the true condition of the car.....This Cherokee is GORGEOUS in person. You will be very very impressed with with the condition of exterior. Please keep in mind this is a pre-owend vehicle so it will show some very minor wear. The Fern Green color is one of the most rare colors for the XJ and with the black accents on the mods, it makes for a STUNNING looking truck....VERY CLASSY AND RUGGID AT THE SAME TIME !!!!!!!

Interior Condition

The interior of this Jeep is in great condition. The carpets are in brand new condition. The seats are also in great condition for the year and mileage. The headliner IS BRAND NEW. The rear cargo area is very clean. All dash and door panels are very clean The photos below will show EVERY part of the interior so you can see for yourself how clean it is.

This Jeep is in great condition in every way, the motor runs great and is very strong and starts up fine with no issues. All driving components work just as they should, the tranny is nice and tight and shifts very smooth, the brakes work great as they were just serviced. As great condition as this car is, IT IS a pre owned car therefore you will find some minor wear from it being driven, both interior and exterior. I would also like to add the AC is ICE cold !!!

2018 Jeep Wrangler to get 8-speed auto

Mon, Nov 24 2014

Remember when the Jeep Wrangler had a three-speed automatic? That wasn't that long ago – as recent as the 2007 redesign Â– but Chrysler is keen to leave those days behind on the dusty trail. The current model ushered in a four-speed, then a five-speed, but the latest intel indicates that an eight-speed automatic is in the cards. According to a report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and cited by Automotive News, Jeep plans on fitting its eight-speed automatic transmission to the next-generation Wrangler. Chrysler already uses the ZF-sourced slushbox on the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ram 1500, Chrysler 300, and versions of the Dodge Challenger, Charger and Durango. But according to the SEC filing, the Auburn Hills automaker intends "to use this transmission in all of our rear-wheel-drive vehicles, except for heavy-duty versions of the Ram pick-up truck and the SRT Viper." AN says that Chrysler wanted to slot the transmission straight into the current Wrangler, but it wouldn't fit. Between the transmission and shift to aluminum construction, the next-generation Wrangler promises to deliver a significant reduction in fuel consumption. In correspondence with Autoblog, however, company spokesmen declined to comment on the eight-speed's suitability towards either the current Wrangler or the upcoming one.
