I bought this wag in 2009 for my oldest boy to learn how to drive in.  I went through it mechanically replacing battery, carburetor, alternator, thermostat, radiator, hoses, belts, fan clutch, tires, distributor (HEI) and headliner.  I like to play with old jeeps so it made sense to make one mechanically sound and let him learn in a heavy, safe car that could take a hit.  My deal was you drive the old wag for at least a year and if you have no tickets or accidents we can talk about getting something else.  My son liked the wag so much that he drove it for three years and when he decided he did want to trade up he took my Cherokee Chief (the boy has good taste). In the four years that we have owned it we have put 4,000 miles on it and it has been very dependable.

What does not work - the a/c, cruise control, intermittent wiper.  The back window does not work from the dash switch and barely works from the key switch (you have to help it along with your hand).  The rest of the windows work, front ones well and the rear ones slow.  The paint is in bad shape, stained and blochy, the pictures make the paint look better than it is.  The pictures do a good job of showing the rust and the condition of the interior. 

The jeep has been sitting more often than not since my son has been driving the Chief.  I have six other cars to play with so I am letting this one go.  I drove it today and noticed the rear brakes making a little bit of a scraping sound when the brakes are applied so it will probably need rear brake shoes.  Other than that it is mechanically sound and runs very well.  4WD works and it is the best car for snow I have ever had.

If you have any questions please ask.  If you have zero feedback please contact me before you bid.  I would like a $500 deposit via paypal within 24 hours of the auction close.  Balance is due when the jeep is picked up.  You have two week to pick it up unless we agree ahead of time on something else.  I will accept cash or paypal only.  If paying the entire balance via paypal please add 2% to help cover the paypal fee.  If when you come to get the jeep you feel that it has been misrepresented I will refund you $400 of your deposit back.  The jeep is being sold as is where is and shipping is the responsibility of the buyer.  I will be happy to work with your shipper if you choose not to come and get it yourself.

Jeep follows up Super Bowl spot with call to help the USO

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Once again, Chrysler had one of the most talked about Super Bowl commercials with its two-minute Whole Again Jeep spot, which was used to highlight its Operation SAFE Return program for US military personnel returning home from active duty. As part of this campaign, Jeep announced today that it will be donating up to $300,000 to the United Services Organizations (USO), and you can help.
Simply tweet using the #joinOSR hashtag on Twitter, visit the Yahoo! homepage or go to the Jeep Operation SAFE Return website, and Jeep will donate $1 to a fund that provides returning troops things like employment assistance and incentives to buy new vehicles. Jeep is also donating to this charity to the tune of $250 for each Jeep Wrangler and Wrangler Unlimited (including the Freedom Edition model) and Jeep Patriot Freedom Edition model sold.

Hackers arrested after stealing more than 30 Jeeps in Texas

Fri, Aug 5 2016

This article has been updated with details on how the thefts were carried out, and with comments from FCA. It seems the news regarding vehicle hacking continues to get worse, especially when it comes to products from Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. Last year, a Jeep Cherokee in St. Louis, Missouri, was wirelessly hacked from Pittsburgh. Nissan had to shut down its Leaf app because of vulnerabilities. Now, a pair of hackers in Houston, Texas, stole more than 30 Jeeps over a six-month period. The two were arrested by police last Friday while attempting to steal another vehicle. ABC 13 in Houston reports that police had been following Michael Arcee and Jesse Zelay for several months but were unable to catch them in the act until now. The two were using a laptop to connect to and start a vehicle. The thieves were able to access Fiat Chrysler's own DealerCONNECT software. After entering the vehicle identification number, the hackers were able to reprogram the cars' security systems to accept a generic key, according to The Houston Chronicle. Additionally, Automotive News reports that FCA subsequently updated the terms of use for its DealerCONNECT program. These thefts were not related to the UConnect remote hacks from last year.

It was this footage that first led the police to Arcee and Zelay. The police began to follow and record the pair. That investigation eventually led to Friday's arrest. Both are charged with unauthorized use of a motor vehicle. In addition, Arcee is charged with felon in possession of a weapon and possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance. According to ABC 13, Homeland Security is investigating more than 100 stolen FCA vehicles that they believe were hacked using this method. After their theft, the vehicles were brought across the border to Mexico. FCA is currently conducting an internal investigation into the matter. After this article was posted, the company reached out to Autoblog, stating "FCA US takes the safety and security of its customers seriously and incorporates security features in its vehicles that help to reduce the risk of unauthorized and unlawful access to vehicle systems and wireless communications. FCA US has been cooperating with Houston Police Department since they first started the investigation.
