The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"My Jeep was stolen and I got it back. 1997 Black Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4.0L. 108,000 miles. The car runs like a champ, has black Crager wheels and almost brand new BF Goodrich Radial T/A's on it. Less than 2k on the tires. The front and rear brake pads and rotors are new. Engine runs strong. Trans and transfer case shift perfectly and there are no leaks. I was planning on keeping this truck until some sc**bag stole it. The ignition switch/column is broken and you have to start the car with a screwdriver. (a new column is $70 dollars on ebay) The only other thing that happened is some brake fluid spilled on the rear seats and carpet destroying them. New rear seats are cheap ($25 on ebay) It could use new floor mats to cover up the rear carpets. The check engine light comes on sometimes and the left rear window does not roll down, but overall a solid truck to repair or for parts- drivetrain is excellent. I hate to see it go and I planned on keeping it for years."

Like I said- I really hate to see my baby go like this- it has been a really good car for me, and will be the right car for someone out there. Just to be up front- the car was STOLEN and the cops recovered it. They crooks did no damage to the outside, but they did break the ignition switch and steering column to get it started. I had a bottle of brake fluid in the back and they spilled it all over the rear seat bottoms and the rear carpet. I have a clean title for it. The left rear window does not roll down, the AC does not blow cold, the horn sounds like a dying duck, and the check engine light comes on for a week or 2 and then goes off for a week or 2. It has been doing this for at least 6 years and has never let me down. Starts every time and runs strong. The drivetrain and suspension are great. The brakes are new and the tires are also new. I use my motorcycle to get to work 95% of the time and only use this truck when the weather is bad. The car has never been in an accident as far as i can tell, but there are dings and dents on the panels. All the glass is perfect. Like I said- this truck is DEFINITELY NOT FOR EVERYONE. You need to replace the column (or keep using the screwdriver to start it), and should replace the rear seat bottoms. These parts are cheap and are easy to replace, but I don't feel like doing it. My loss is your gain. This truck is cheap and would make a great work truck, or put a plow on it. You cannot get this thing stuck in the snow- I've tried! May also be a good platform for an off road rig, or a parts donor for a project.

The Battery is less than 1 year old, and the plugs, cap, rotor, and wires were done 5k ago. She ain't pretty, but she gets the job done. I've had it for almost a decade and only put 4-5,000 miles a year on it. I has never been abused and the oil has been changed every 3000 miles. Wipers and heater work great. Only 108k on the engine- these 6 Cylinder engines are good for double that. I have set a low reserve price- the tires alone were $700.00!

Please note this is for pick up only- I can cannot deliver it or help you ship it.

Any questions, please don't hesitate to write- Thank you for looking!

Jeep hiring 1,000 part-time workers in Toledo on Wrangler, Cherokee demand

Wed, 12 Mar 2014

The new Jeep Cherokee has been quite a success for Chrysler, but its factory workers are getting tired. The automaker has agreed to hire up to 1,000 part-time, temporary employees at its Toledo Assembly Complex where the CUV and Wrangler are built. It will allow the company to keep Jeep production moving, while giving laborers a break.
According to plant manager Chuck Padden in the Toledo Blade, full-time workers are regularly taking on 60 hours a week, and it's beginning to wear on them. "To get them more time off is important to us, to make sure they're refreshed, and can work safely," said Padden.
Chrysler has already hired 380 temporary, part-time workers for the plant, and 50 have been converted to full-time employees. The company is in the process of interviewing the rest of the new hires now and plans to have all 1,000 in place by the summer. They will work between 10 and 30 hours a week mostly on weekends for $15.78 per hour with limited benefits. The temporary positions will last "as long as demand continues for the Jeep Wrangler and the Jeep Cherokee," said Jodi Tinson, Chrysler spokesperson for manufacturing and labor communications, to Autoblog in an email.

Jeep CEO a fan of pickup redux

Tue, Mar 10 2015

The idea of a Jeep pickup is a hardly a new concept. After all, putting a bed on the company's rugged off-roaders goes back to the '40s, not to mention the more recent Cherokee-based Comanche. There's a very slim chance that a truck could return to the lineup down the line if brand CEO Mike Manley gets his wish. "I remain a big fan of a Jeep pickup. I think we have history that says it belongs in our portfolio," Manley said to The Detroit News. However, there's no need to get any hopes up soon, because a truck doesn't get any mention in the brand's five-year plan. That puts the earliest possible introduction around 2019. Even Manley is tempering expectations. "At this moment and time, I have higher priorities. That doesn't mean to say that we don't work on it, we're not looking at it," he said to The Detroit News. The most likely candidate to support a future Jeep truck is the next-gen Wrangler, according to The News. The rest of FCA's pickups and SUVs are running at capacity, which makes slipping in another variant difficult. However, the future Wrangler is heavily rumored to get an expanded production facility in Toledo, OH, which could make things possible. Anonymous FCA insiders confirmed to Autoblog that the next-gen Wrangler would be offered with a 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 and eight-speed automatic. It's also reportedly using solid axles at the front and rear, a fixed windshield and an aluminum body. That could make for a very fun and practical off-roader. If reading all of this speculation gives you a twinge of deja vu, it should. After the Jeep Gladiator concept (pictured above), there were years of speculation about the brand bringing the pickup back. Even then the plan was for a compact truck to tackle that hole in the segment. It was even believed that the project had a green light for production seemingly with Sergio Marchionne's blessing. Then things were pushed back, and last year, the idea was officially quashed. Related Video:

Chrysler extending production of current Dodge Avenger, Jeep Wrangler, Grand Caravan

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Are you hesitant to pull the trigger on a brand new Dodge Avenger in hopes that a new one will be coming? Well, don't hold your breath. According to The Detroit News, Chrysler will be extending production of the current Avenger sedan through the end of 2015.
Originally, we heard that the company would kill the Avenger to better focus its midsize sedan efforts on the Chrysler 200 replacement. But then new reports stated there would indeed be an Avenger successor, and that we could see it as early as next January. This Detroit News report cites supplier sources confirming the extension of Avenger production, though Chrysler has not released an official statement on the matter.
These same suppliers say that the current Jeep Wrangler will live on through mid-2018 - that's right, another five years. The Detroit News reports that a replacement for the iconic, go-anywhere Jeep was due in mid-2016.
