Jeep made about 15,000 of these vehicles during 1998 - and only during 1998. They sported a 5.9 liter V8 engine generating 245 horsepower and 345 foot-pounds of torque. They were the fastest SUV on the road that year. The 5.9 is still considered among the "best of the best" versions of Jeep ever made and is a collectible.

The 5.9 was finished in only three exterior colors: white enamel, metallic gray and black metallic. Until very recently I owned all three (part of my collection). I just sold the 300,000+ mile gray one (owned since new) to my nephew. He loves it. I have the black and also the white one available for immediate purchase. (See my other EBay listing for the white one). I love these beasts but we are moving offshore. There's nowhere to store them for a long period of time that wouldn't cost a fortune. They should go to a good home - someone who understands their value and will take good care of them.

This particular vehicle is non-modified (all factory original) outfitted with 5 Goodyear Wrangler HP tires with about 15% wear (this is the original tire that was mounted on the rim of this car from the factory). The air conditioning system is new OEM and works perfectly (cost about $2000 to replace). New shocks, brake pads and rotors were installed within the past 9 months. The vehicle is in excellent mechanical shape and has no cosmetic issues and zero rust. All fluids have been replaced on a regular basis. The vehicle is fully functional - including the ABS system, sunroof, Infinity radio, electric door locks, heated seats and gas sending unit in the gas tank. (I like cars that work). It has an OEM external spare tire holder and tow package. It even has OEM rubber floor mats and a rare cup holder insert! An American classic.

I will sell both Jeeps on a package deal basis for $11,500.00 - and throw in a set of 4 extra OEM rims and a front and rear bumper. First come, first served.

Or feel free to bid for only one of them. They are both in great shape and fun to drive. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me. Leave a phone number where I can reach you.

Jeep spied testing new compact crossover

Tue, Nov 24 2015

Jeep is preparing a new crossover to slot in between the Renegade and Cherokee. Spied here for the first time, the new model is expected to arrive sometime around the middle of the new year. And with it, FCA's off-road brand will finally have a successor for the Compass and Patriot. From the little bit we can project at this early stage, the new C-segment Jeep is expected to ride on a modified version of the platform that underpins the Renegade and Fiat 500X. Motivation is tipped to come from the company's new 2.0-liter turbocharged Hurricane inline-four mated to a nine-speed automatic transmission. We expect it to come in front and all-wheel-drive versions. The big question mark at this point is what the vehicle will be called. As the replacement for both the Compass and the Patriot, this model could adopt either nameplate – or it could wear a new one entirely. If the Renegade and 500X are anything to go by, the new Jeep could be offered as a Fiat as well, which could easily be dubbed the 500XL. We'll have to wait and see, but in the meantime you can check out the prototype Â– albeit in camouflaged form Â– in the image gallery above. Related Video:

Stellantis expects to hit emissions target without Tesla's help

Tue, May 4 2021

Franco-Italian carmaker Stellantis expects to achieve its European carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions targets this year without environmental credits bought from Tesla, its CEO said in an interview published on Tuesday. Stellantis was formed through the merger of France's PSA and Italy's FCA, which spent about 2 billion euros ($2.40 billion) to buy European and U.S. CO2 credits from electric vehicle maker Tesla over the 2019-2021 period. "With the electrical technology that PSA brought to Stellantis, we will autonomously meet carbon dioxide emission regulations as early as this year," Stellantis boss Carlos Tavares said in the interview with French weekly Le Point. "Thus, we will not need to call on European CO2 credits and FCA will no longer have to pool with Tesla or anyone." California-based Tesla earns credits for exceeding emissions and fuel economy standards and sells them to other automakers that fall short. European regulations require all car manufacturers to reduce CO2 emissions for private vehicles to an average of 95 grams per kilometer this year. A Stellantis spokesman said the company is in discussions with Tesla about the financial implications of the decision to stop the pooling agreement. "As a result of the combination of Groupe PSA and FCA, Stellantis will be in a position to achieve CO2 targets in Europe for 2021 without open passenger car pooling arrangements with other automakers," he added. Tesla's sales of environmental credits to rival automakers helped it to announce slightly better than expected first-quarter revenue this week. The next tightening of European regulations will soon be the subject of proposals from the European Commission. The 2030 target could be lowered to less than 43 grams/km.

Jeep going bigger with new Grand Wagoneer, smaller with sub-Renegade?

Tue, 11 Mar 2014

The headlines are still rolling in for the new Renegade that Jeep unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show last week, but already reports are surfacing, citing sources within the company, about what Chrysler's iconic off-road brand will do next.
Speaking with Auto Express (whose reports we tend to take with a grain of salt or two), Jeep chief Mike Manley suggested that two courses of action are currently under consideration at Auburn Hills to develop two very different new models - one smaller and one larger than anything Jeep currently makes.
One plan would be to make an SUV or crossover even smaller than the new Renegade, although it isn't immediately clear what platform it would take. The Renegade (pictured above in Trailhawk spec) will be built in Italy alongside Fiat's upcoming 500X, but uses a heavily modified platform. We figure the smaller model, if approved, could base itself on the new Fiat Panda Cross.
