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. |

Jeep Chief and Wrangler Red Rock Responder teased ahead of Easter Jeep Safari
Thu, Mar 12 2015Jeep is being coy about it's lineup for the 2015 Moab Easter Jeep Safari, releasing just a pair of shots and an exceptionally brief press release on two of the seven concepts coming to the desert later this month. So, what can we glean from the limited assets that have been given to us? Well, as we said, we know Jeep is bringing seven vehicles to its big festival. We also know the names of two vehicles, shown above – there's the Chief and the Wrangler Red Rock Responder. Which is which? A fair question. We're betting the second image is the Wrangler-based Red Rock Responder. As for the Chief, well, we've absolutely no idea what to expect there. Jeep's Moab concepts generally include the model name on which their based – see the Grand Cherokee Trail Warrior and Cherokee Dakar from last year, or even the Wrangler Red Rock Responder, mentioned above. There's no such moniker on the Chief. As for the Chief's illustrated teaser image, as we said, it doesn't reveal much. The body is angular, and quite Jeep like, with squared-off wheel arches and decidedly old-school taillights. Beyond that, though, we don't have much to go on. Expect much more not just on the Chief and Red Rock Responder, but on all seven of the concepts Jeep is bringing to Moab. The party starts on March 28 and runs until April 5. Be sure to check back then for full coverage. Related Video:
Gilles defends 2014 Jeep Cherokee design as "very contemporary"
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Following the forced-hand introduction of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, there has definitely been a mix of responses revolving around everything from its design to the return of the legendary nameplate. As evidence of this, just check out the 1,000+ comments in our article last week and some of the many opinions that were voiced. Following this not-too-warm reception, Ward's Auto had a chance to talk to Chrysler designer chief - and SRT president - Ralph Gilles, who shed a little more light on the styling direction of the new Cherokee.
Rather than looking to previous models for inspiration, Gilles says that the Cherokee has been designed to be more contemporary, with Mark Allen, head of Jeep design, adding that a main goal was to make sure the design still looks modern five years from now. Interestingly, Gilles does point out that one of the design elements incorporated on the new Cherokee that pays homage to past Jeeps is the sharply downward angle for the leading edge of the beltline, which he notes is meant to mimic the look of the old YJ and TJ Wrangler models fitted with half doors. Of course, the squared-off wheel openings - a signature Jeep cue - are still used.
This is probably a design that will need to be seen on the street in actual daylight to properly assess, but in the meantime, we'll bring you full images and impressions when the Cherokee debuts at next month's New York Auto Show.
Car Club USA: Moab Jeep Jamboree
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
