Up for sale is a 1971 Jeepster Commando 2-Door Station Wagon. It has good running 225 V6 Buick engine (3.7L) and an Automatic Transmission with only 71,582 original miles! Does NOT burn oil. It has the bucket seats and center console shifter. I recently rebuilt the carburetor, replaced the battery, replaced the distributor (along with points, wires, plugs, condenser, rotor and cap), and replaced the muffler and rear exhaust pipe. This thing now runs pretty well. The Jeep has locking hubs for the front wheels and four-wheel drive. Tires are in good shape. Automatic transmission shifts strong. The AM radio even works!

Last winter I picked up a Half Cab and bulkhead for the Jeepster. The bulkhead is currently installed, making the tops interchangeable! The Half Cab top is pretty rare and is worth close to $800 alone. The Station Wagon top has the sliding side windows and is in good shape (both tops are missing headliners). The Half Cab top gives the flexibility of using the Jeepster as a truck, of sorts, by creating a short bed. I rhino-lined the back area, but the back seat and seatbelts can still be bolted in when needed. Both the front seats and back seat have matching seat covers. The seats are worn but otherwise in relatively good shape. I just covered them so they wouldn't get any worse.

As with any 42-year-old rig, this one is not perfect. It has a very amateur paint job, mostly because the grill, left front fender, and hood were another color when I bought the Jeepster. I believe the fender and hood are from a 1967 Jeepster, so the fenders are not an exact match. The Jeep electrical system is old and temperamental (the dashboard illumination lights recently stopped working, for example). The ignition system has been changed over to a key and push button. There is some rust that will eventually need attention (front floorboards, the bottom of the tailgate and vicinity, one part of the Half Cab top drip rail, top of right front fender). The window and door seals will one day need to replaced, depending on how much you like the sound of rattling when you drive down the road. The rear window seal on the Half Cab has a gap at the bottom of the glass. And, there is that occasional clunk I've been hearing in the front end on sharp right turns. The brakes are good, but a brake booster would also make this a lot easier to stop.

Overall, a very solid classic builder that is driveable now, and gets plenty of thumbs-up. Great for winter and summer. Please email with questions.

Chrysler nets $1.6B income in Q4, Fiat profit up 5%

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

Chrysler announced its 2013 financial results today and unveiled its new name and decidedly bank-like logo. Amid the announcement, Chrysler posted big gains in income, while Fiat didn't perform to analysts' expectations.
For 2013, Chrysler had revenue of $72.1 billion, up 10 percent from 2012. Net income reached $2.8 billion, a 65-percent increase. It was the company's third straight year of annual profits.
In terms of unit sales, Chrysler sold 2.4 million cars worldwide in 2013, up 9 percent. According to Automotive News, 1.8 million of those vehicles were sold in the US, a 14-percent increase. The sales growth boosted Chrysler's US market share to 11.4 percent, up 0.2 percent.

Best 3rd Row SUVs of 2024

Wed, Oct 19 2022

If you plan on using a vehicle's third row a lot, let us at least make the suggestion that a minivan would be a smarter bet than anything you're going to see on this list of best three-row SUVs. Their third rows are bigger, more comfortable and easier to get to. The kids will definitely be happier. Here are our two top choices. OK, now that that's out of the way, we totally get why minivans are totally depressing and that if the kids want to be happier, they can buy their own darn vehicle. You're buying, you're driving, you're being seen in it and you'd rather have a three-row SUV. Fair enough. Luckily, there are more choices than ever and they're really good. The best do a particularly good job of being family friendly without looking like a drab transportation appliance, although really, you can't go wrong with any of the mainstream three-row SUVs. Now, some of the luxury choices are a bit suspect, including those that are otherwise very appealing but have cramped third-row seats (the Genesis GV80 comes to mind). We're focusing on three-row SUVs here, so having a usable third row is a must. In this list, we have broken things down into four sub-categories: Best Three-Row Crossover | Best Full-size Three-Row SUV Best Luxury Three-Row SUV | Best Flagship Luxury Three-Row SUV Note that we define crossovers as SUVs since most buyers use the terms interchangeably, but acknowledge that "crossover" is literally a vehicle with a car-like unibody structure as opposed to the truck-like, body-on-frame construction that traditionally has defined "SUV." In other words, we consider all crossovers SUVs, but not all SUVs are crossovers (specifically those in the full-size segment and some in the flagship luxury segment). Best Three-Row Crossover SUVs of 2024 2024 Honda Pilot Why it stands out: Exceptional storage and cargo space; unique second-row functionality; refined ride; versatile and capable TrailSport; advanced AWDCould be better: Subpar acceleration with lackadaisical transmission and engine response; so-so driver assistance tech Read our full 2024 Honda Pilot Review The Honda Pilot was completely redesigned for 2023. It maintains its predecessor's family friendly packaging and overall focus, but it has injected a welcome sense of style (especially in the TrailSport pictured above) that makes it stand out much better from the big crossover crowd.
