Here is your chance to own a classic! We have enjoyed this truck for 8 years. During that time it has been dealer serviced and it shows the love. I has been garaged the entire time we owned it. It is very dependable and is in top condition. Here are some stats that we found from another seller. There were only 14,117 Grand Wagoneers built for 1988. This iconic Wagoneer was only driven less than an average of 4200 miles a yr in the last 25 years. This truck is beautiful and ready to go to another new collector. I will be selling all of my Grand Wagoneers in the next few months. The Wagoneer has always been known as the gold standard of the SUV market. Forbes Magazine recommends these trucks as one of their top 50 investments. Some might wonder why. The answer is only the fortunate ones were able to afford these beautiful pieces of art when new. This particular truck had a $28,803 sticker price when new in 1988 which equates out to $67,897 in 2013 according to the U.S. Dept of Labor and Earnings. There is no other ride like a Grand Wagoneer in the SUV marketplace. While this truck is not a museum piece, it is a beautiful piece for the collector or Jeep fan. Remember Jeep was the founder of the modern SUV. The Jeep Wagoneer is an iconic sports utility vehicle (SUV) launched by Kaiser-Jeep back in 1963. While many of us think Wrangler when we hear Jeep, the older generations had a very different image. When Jeep, then owned by American Motors, introduced the Cherokee in 1974, they did so as the less expensive, entry-level counterpart to the Wagoneer. In 1984 the Wagoneer became the Grand Wagoneer, to differentiate it from the Wagoneer with the all-new Cherokee body. Unfortunately, for fans of the line, at some point in 1991, the Grand Wagoneer became a luxury item, then indistinguishable from the modern Grand Cherokee, and then finally ceased all together in 1993 when no one wanted the smaller Grand Wagoneer. The Grand Wagoneer enjoyed one of the longest production runs of any vehicle. The powerful V8 engine and high towing capacity made the Grand Wagoneer popular among its many repeat buyers, and as of 1991, it was the longest domestically produced vehicle (29 years) on the same platform. The 1987-1991 models years "are considered the best of the breed and still have a loyal following among a select group".

Updated 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee ace same controversial moose test it failed in 2012 [w/video]
Thu, 02 Jan 2014Some background: one of the more scandalous international incidents of he-said/he-said from 2012 was when Swedish magazine Teknikens Varld put the Jeep Grand Cherokee through its "moose (or elk) test" and reported that the SUV nearly rolled over. That lead to a whole lot of accusations and rebuttals: more than one website and Chrysler's own blog reported that the Jeep was overloaded; Chrysler said Teknikens printed the magazine then let Chrysler respond, Teknikens answered all of the charges in a lengthy post and said Chrysler was given a chance to comment before it went to print; when Chrysler sent investigators to oversee the test and the Jeep didn't go up on two wheels as it did in the first test, furthermore all four wheels stayed on the ground when Auto Motor und Sport tested a Grand Cherokee in the same way.
Teknikens then re-ran the test with a new vehicle and said it's been doing this test since the 1970s, uses the loading information that Chrysler provides to the Swedish motor authority and the previous Grand Cherokee passed with no problem. In the second test, the Jeep failed again, then it gave Chrysler engineers access to the car's electronics and ran the test again. In that second round the Grand Cherokee didn't repeat the lurid two-wheel action, but in eleven runs it blew out front left tire seven times. Chrysler still objects to the results of all of those tests and maintains that vehicle was safe.
The 2014 Grand Cherokee was given its shot at the gauntlet in the latest round of moose tests, and Teknikens Varld reports that it passed without any problem at all, its stability control working perfectly, controlling motion at low speeds and all the way up to 44.1 miles per hour. You can watch the video of the new test and read the press release from the magazine on the updated Grand Cherokee below.

Thu, Jan 22 2015Today Autoblog is excited to premiere its latest original video series, Car Club USA. Car Club USA's debut episode features the Just Jeeps club of Omaha, including a father-son duo traveling to Moab, UT to brave the treacherous trails. Brian is behind the wheel, as his father guides him through the most dangerous geographical features Moab's red desert has to offer. Joining them are Gene and Jean, an older married couple from Minnesota whose modified Jeep Wrangler – like its owners – knows no bounds. "We're in our seventies now," explained Jean. "We could be sitting at home in a rocking chair watching TV, but we'd rather do this." Also hitting the trails is Matt, a Californian who looks to pay homage to his father by exploring southern Utah in a World War II-era Jeep Willys. "This was our stomping ground," said Matt. "That's why I chose to come to Utah for my big vacation this year, in his memory, to see some of the places we used to go together, and have fun and do some Jeeping." Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures. From Main Street cruises to off-road trails, catch all the latest car club activity on Autoblog. Jeep SUV Off-Road Vehicles Car Club USA Videos
New England Patriots player helps driver of rollover crash
Tue, Jan 20 2015Winning the AFC Championship game to guarantee a spot in the Super Bowl would be a pretty major accomplishment for most people in a day. However, just hours after the victory, New England Patriots defensive tackle Vince Wilfork showed what he could do off the field, when he helped save a woman from an overturned car. Though, the player remained modest about what happened. Wilfork and his wife were driving home late at night when they spotted a flipped Jeep near Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, MA. Surveillance video showed Wilfork pulling over and running to the vehicle's aid to be among the first on the scene. Finding a woman trapped inside, Wilfork told her, "Don't panic," and according to Massachusetts State Police, the 325-pound player simply reached his arm into the vehicle and lifted the woman out to save her. She was later charged with driving under the influence. Hear Wilfork's description of what happened in the video above.
