This is a red ’89 Jeep Wrangler, the four-cylinder make. It is considerably rusty and, at 236,825 miles, it is well used (though the engine, which was pulled and moved over from a '95 Wrangler, has closer to 150,000). It starts fast and runs strong. We just drove it to Pittsburgh (from Cleveland) and back last week without trouble. The following things have been replaced in the last couple years: Radiator Left front wheel bearing and axle U-joint Steering gear box Clutch Tie rods Some other things to know would be that the parking/emergency brake doesn’t work (I carry a brick around for when I have to park on an incline), neither does the horn. In a heavy rain, water will drip down from the dashboard and flood the floor of the front seats, but but there are drainage holes for this. The rear windows to the soft top can be a hassle to get on and one of the zippers is torn (since the interior is all metal and vinyl I just leave them out when it rains). The rear plastic window has a hole of about 5 inches which flaps in the breeze, but could be sealed with tape. The tires are fairly bald. And it consistently gets between 18-22 mpg (better around town than on the highway). You can see from the pictures that it has significant rust. It also runs very loud and needs a muffler, but being more than 25 years old, is exempt from emissions testing. Any old muffler on it would quiet it down for driving. The 4WD works, but sometimes slips out of gear. We use a bungy cord to keep pressure on the stick to keep it engaged. This would be a great farm vehicle to get around the back 40. Or you could just pull the engine and move it to something else. The back seat, rarely used, is in good shape. Same with the passenger seat. The wheels are stock Jeep from a 99 Wrangler. On Sep-10-14 at 10:11:32 PDT, seller added the following information: One more thing. If you fill the gas tank all the way up, you get a gas smell if it's garaged. I think the seal is faulty for the in-tank fuel pump needs replaced. The fuel pump was replaced 3 years ago and we cut an access panel to it in the rear trunk area. So it's not hard to get to that area to check it. I just keep forgetting. I've owned this Jeep for 14 years and even though it's well-worn, I'll be sad to see it go. I'd keep it except my son (who drove it the last 4 years) just went to London to study for his Master's degree and I don't want to store it for a year. |

8 cars we're most looking forward to driving in 2015
Mon, Jan 5 2015Now that 2014 is officially in the books, it's time to look ahead. And following our list of the cars we liked best last year, we're now setting our sights at the hot new metal that's coming our way in 2015. Some of these, we've already seen. And some are still set to debut during the 2015 auto show season. But these are the machines that keep us going – the things on the horizon that we're particularly stoked to drive, and drive hard. Jeep Renegade Not the Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Not the Ford Mustang GT350. Not the new John Cooper Works Mini. Nope, I'm looking forward to the adorable, trail-rated Jeep Renegade. And that's because I really, really, really like our long-term Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. I do not, however, care too much for the Cherokee's looks, and I really don't like its $38,059 price tag. The Renegade Trailhawk, meanwhile, promises much of the same rough-and-tumble character as its big brother, but at what we expect will be a more reasonable price (I'm personally wagering on the baby Jeep's off-road model starting at no more than $23,000). With a 2.4-liter four-cylinder and a nine-speed automatic, it should also be a bit easier to fill than the V6-powered Cherokee. Also, I can't help but love the way the Renegade looks. It's like someone took a Wrangler, squished it by 50 percent and then handed it off to George Clinton for a healthy dose of funk. The interior, with its bright, expressive trims and color schemes should also be a really nice place to spend some time. I'll be attending the Renegade's launch later this month, so I'll have a much shorter wait than my colleagues. Here's hoping the baby Jeep lives up to my expectations. – Brandon Turkus Associate Editor Mazda MX-5 Miata Here's an uncomfortable truth: I'd rather spend a day driving a properly sorted Mazda MX-5 Miata of any generation on a winding road than I would nearly any other vehicle, regardless of power, price or prestige. It's not just that I prize top-down driving and enjoy the Miata's small size because it gives me more road to play with. I just find there's more motoring joy to be had with high-fidelity handling and an uncorrupted car-to-driver communication loop than I do with face-distorting power or grip – let alone valet-stand gravitas. But perhaps most of all, I love Miatas because they can deliver that level of feedback and driver reward at modest speeds that won't put the locals on edge or endanger lives – you can use more of the car more of the time.
Chrysler recalls 468,700 Jeep Grand Cherokees, Commanders over rollaway risk
Mon, 13 May 2013Chrysler has issued a recall covering a combined 469,000 units of the 2005-2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee and the 2006-2010 Jeep Commander (inset). Of that number, 295,000 are in the US, roughly 33,000 in Canada and Mexico and the remainder in other markets. It seems an electrical fault in the transfer case can allow the affected SUVs to shift into neutral on their own, while an Associated Press report says that Chrysler had "found cracks in a circuit board that turns the four-wheel-drive system on and off." The issue was discovered when an owner started his car remotely and it rolled away.
Chrysler is expected to begin notifying owners in June 2013, who can then take their cars to dealers. The dealer will reflash the final drive controller free of charge. There's a bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below with more information.
Wards names its 2015 10 Best Interiors list
Fri, Apr 17 2015Wards Automotive has named the winners of its 10 Best Interior awards, covering a wide but affordable array of vehicles. Where last year's list contained two six-figure vehicles, including the $372,800 Rolls-Royce Wraith, this year's is, well, a whole lot more reasonable. The publication lists the Mercedes-Benz C400 at $65,000 (which seems off), making it the most expensive vehicle here. That said, we'd argue that the entire C-Class line deserves to make this year's list, owing to its varied and high-quality selection of materials. The other vehicle to break the $60,000 mark, meanwhile, is the $60,675 Ford F-150 King Ranch, which has 327,000 pounds of leather lining its interior. Only one other German car, the BMW i3, and one other pickup truck, the GMC Canyon, managed to make this year's list. Here's the full list of this year's winners: 2014 BMW i3 ($52,550) 2015 Chrysler 300C Platinum ($51,175) 2015 Ford F-150 King Ranch ($60,675) 2015 GMC Canyon SLT ($40,465) 2015 Honda Fit EX-L ($21,590) 2015 Jeep Renegade Limited ($33,205) 2015 Kia Sedona SXL ($43,295) 2016 Mazda6 Grand Touring ($33,395) 2015 Mercedes C400 ($65,000) 2015 Nissan Murano SL ($41,905) See what we mean about the mainstream vehicles? Not only is there a distinct lack of luxury brands, it's the price of some of the vehicles that surprise. The Honda Fit, Jeep Renegade and Mazda6 are very reasonably priced, especially when you compare Wards price with the starting price. The Renegade Limited starts at less than $25,000, the Mazda at less than $22K and the Fit at under $16,000. Head over to Wards for a more detailed explanation of why each vehicle won.
