I am looking to sell my 2010 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara. I am the owner of a used car dealership here in Michigan and I have been daily driving this Wrangler for about a year now. A little bit of back story; I bought this Jeep at auction with an engine fire last year (Carfax reports there was fire damage on 01/27/2013, which is why the truck has a rebuilt title) with the intention of doing the motor swap in the spring of 2014. The truck was COMPLETELY stock when I purchased it last year. There are 4 pictures of the truck from when I bought it that shows how it looked when I bought it and the fire damage. Originally I had the gas tank replaced, along with the engine wiring harness, and some top end parts of the motor that were damaged in the fire and I drove it for about 6 months with the original 3.8L V6. Also as soon as we had it running, instead of painting the stock hood, I ordered a 10th Anniversary hood from my local Chrysler dealership and had it painted. At the time of purchase the truck had approximately 50,000 miles on it.
After the truck was running and driving and I had the replacement hood on, I did following modifications (not necessarily in this order): - AEV Premium Front Bumper - AEV JK Rear Bumper - AEV JK Tire Carrier - 2.5" TeraFlex Lift (shocks, springs, and brake relocation, not just a budget boost) - IPF 901XSD Driving Lights (on from bumper) - IPF 968 Series Driving Lights (with Rugged Ridge windshield brackets) - IPF 8161 Backup Light - (5) 18" Fuel Octane Wheels - 35x12.5R18 Federal Mud Tires (less than 50% tread remaining, the spare is brand new) - Replaced the Steering Wheel and Airbag for the 2011+ Style Wheel - License Plate Relocation Bracket (to the middle of the 5th wheel) - OEM Black Grill with Black "Jeep" Badge - Rugged Ridge Gas Cap Cover - Rugged Ridge Grab Handles - Removed the Chrome Mirror Caps and Tail Light Guards Following these modifications, in April of this year, I ordered the 6.1L Hemi Kit from AEV. By May of this year it was completed and ready to go! If you are not familiar with it, the AEV Kit includes but is not limited to, custom motor mounts, custom transmission mounts, a custom radiator, a full custom Flowmaster exhaust system, a new custom PCM and a complete wiring harness that comes from the same supplier that Chrysler uses. With this kit the truck runs and drives like it would if Chrysler would have put a Hemi in the Wrangler. All of the warning lights work as they should including the tire pressure light and none are illuminated at this time. I purchased a 6.1L Hemi that came out of a 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 with 48k miles on it. The 545RFE transmission that was required for the swap came out of a 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee also but with a 5.7L with 38k miles on it and I had it completely rebuilt but a local well known transmission shop with a bigger torque convertor and better internal parts than stock. A lot of the other parts that were required for the kit were also ordered from my local Chrysler dealership. After the swap was completed everything was programmed with AEV's Procal module including the correct tire size. Since then I have put roughly 7,000 miles on the truck and I have loved every minute of it! Everywhere I go it turns heads and I'm always getting compliments on it. I am not sure about the previous owner but in the time I have had it, it has only served as my daily driver and I have NEVER taken it off-road or to the sand dunes before or after the swap. The only reason I am even selling it at this time is because my interest has shifted to another ongoing project and the money from this truck will help me complete that project. I am currently still daily driving it so the mileage will go up from the time of this listing. I regret that I didn't get to finish modding the truck the way I wanted to because the exterior and the powertrain are AMAZING but the interior I hadn't quite gotten around to completing. The things I was planning on doing before I decided it was time to sell it are as follows. I purchased the winch mount from AEV for the front bumper but never got around to actually purchasing a winch and installing it. Also I wanted to replace the factory radio with a factory Navigation system. Last but not least I was going to order some custom Cardinal Red seats from Katzkin. Other than the things I listed everything I wanted to do to the truck I have already done. The reserve price barely covers the parts and labor that went into this build. I do have the truck advertised locally and I reserve the right to end this auction early if I do sell it locally before this auction ends. As I stated in the beginning the truck was COMPLETELY stock when I purchased it and I have pictures and receipts for everything along the way. Feel free to shoot me a message on eBay if you'd like any additional information or you can call/text me at (586) 850-9224 and I will do my best to answer any and all questions you may have. |

Chrysler highlights Mopar lineup for SEMA
Wed, 30 Oct 2013SEMA is all about aftermarket parts, and in Auburn Hills that all comes down to one name: Mopar. After having previewed its lineup for this year's Vegas tuner expo earlier this month, Chrysler has now revealed what may not quite be its full dossier of modified show cars, but a good portion of them.
All told Mopar is preparing 20 vehicles for display at SEMA this year. Among them you'll find the Ram Sun Chaser, a 1500 Quad Cab show truck kitted out in two-tone orange and black paint, a roof rack for surfboards, onboard shower and convertible tailgate. The white Fiat 500L is called the Adventurer and is modified for a more rugged look that could hint at the upcoming crossover version. The Jeep Cherokee Trail Carver upgrades on the Trailhawk package with everything from roof basket to rock rails. To counterbalance the off-roaders, there's also a modified Chrysler 300S with a deep black paint job, special grille, Varvatos-edition wheels and more.
All four concepts details so far have Katzkin interiors as well, and there's also an unspecified Dodge Durango with a storm-trooper look in the gallery above. But for more details on what Mopar has installed on the Ram, 500L, Cherokee and 300, you'll want to delve into the press release below.
2014 Jeep Cherokee musters 22 MPG city, 31 highway
Thu, 05 Sep 2013Production and media drive delays included, there has been no lack of press surrounding the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. With the most recent delay reportedly due to powertrain calibrations, we've been waiting to see how the Cherokee's fuel economy looks against the highly competitive compact CUV segment. Thanks to the EPA, we now know the fuel economy figures for the newest member of the Jeep family.
Arguably, the Cherokee has the most modern powertrain in its class with an updated base engine, all-new V6 and all-new nine-speed automatic transmission, but its fuel economy figures are simply on par for the segment. Still nothing to scoff at, though. According to fueleconomy.gov, front-wheel-drive Cherokee models with the base four-cylinder mill will top out the lineup with 22 miles per gallon in the city and 31 mpg on the highway; opting for four-wheel drive with this engine drops the figures to 21 city and 28 highway. Get even crazier with the option list, and the new 3.2-liter Pentastar V6 will get you 19 mpg city and 28 mpg highway in two-wheel-drive form or 19 city and 27 highway for 4WD.
If you're wondering how that stacks up among compact CUVs, head on over to Automobile Magazine for a full fuel economy breakdown for the segment. The controversially styled crossover hits dealers this month, and we'll be driving it in just a couple of weeks.
FCA profits surge in second quarter
Fri, Jul 31 2015Fiat Chrysler Automobiles gave the cash register a beating in the second quarter, improving its net profit to 333 million euros ($364M US), which is a 263-percent jump over its reported Q1 profit of 92 million euros ($108M US). At the same time, FCA improved its global profit margin to 7.7 percent. Compared year-over-year, in Q2 2014 FCA reported net profit of 197 million euros making this year's Q2 a 69-percent increase, and profit margins a year ago were 4.9 percent. The two big factors for this increase are strong NAFTA sales and Jeep. In the US alone, Jeep sold 222,940 units in Q2 this year, a jump of almost 20 percent over the same period last year. Revenue in the NAFTA region totaled $18.8 billion, adjusted earnings before interest and taxes were $1.45 billion, both of those numbers more than doubling compared to 2014. The vastly better numbers come on marginally more global sales, 1,181,000 units sold in Q2 2014, 1,193,000 units sold in the same span this year. In the US, FCA began charging dealers one-percent more for vehicles to up the margins, a move that helped boost its US margin from 4.1 percent a year ago to 5.8 percent the first half of this year. The company is holding steady on its guidance of global deliveries at 4.8 million and its net profit guidance at $1.1 to $1.3 billion. It has increased its adjusted outlook for the year to $120.5 billion in revenue, and EBIT to "over $4.93 billion."
