2012 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon. This is the top of the line Jeep model for 2012 and has every single option available for 2012. It is the perfect all around vehicle - a convertible in the summer, a 4x4 in the winter, and a 4-door to haul around kids or friends. The only think it's lacking is a big 400hp hemi engine and then you can hit the track. The 285hp pentastar does just fine and the 5 spd auto is a huge improvement over the previous 4 spd auto in the 2007-2011 Jk's. Cosmetically the vehicle is in great shape. It has the color matched hardtop and fenders. The hardtop color matched is a cool option. The matched fenders look really nice but the only drawback is that they are painted so they are more susceptible to getting scratched vs the unpainted black ones. Given the drawback I would still go for the painted ones. The interior is in perfect condition. Leather heated seats, front and side airbags are 490 option. It has navi, bluetooth phone, and the larger hard drive for uploading MP3's. It also has a set of ACE rock rails which is a big help for shorter people. It has 33.5" nitto terra grappler tires which are a lot more comfortable and handle better than the stock 32" BFG mud terrains - they have 2000 miles on them. With the 4.10 gears the jeep is at 2600 RPM's on the highway which is the sweet spot for good gas mileage - the larger tires increased the gas mileage on average by 1.5 MPG. It has the towing package and a front tow hitch in case you want to hook up a hitch but not mount it permanently. If you're looking at this ad I would assume you are familiar with the Rubicon - heavy duty dana 44 axles, electronic front sway bar disconnect, front and rear electronic lockers, and a low ratio transfer case. All great options for a serious offroader or a hurricane sandy escape vehicle - in all honesty for my use I tried the lockers once in the snow and maybe put it in 4wd a total of 5 times. I'm not a big offroader and used this more to lug around my kids. With a 3rd child I'm looking to upgrade to a larger SUV which is the main motivation for selling it. The title is free and clear and in my name. Please feel free to ask any questions or come and schedule a test drive and look at it. It has ben dealer maintained and is a very clean well kept Jeep.

Jeep still working to improve Cherokee's 9-speed auto

Tue, Feb 3 2015

Fiat Chrysler is hoping an upcoming software update will stem the tide of consumer complaints surrounding its nine-speed automatic transmission. Owners of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee have reported a number of problems on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's SaferCar.gov website, since the new model and its troubled gearbox arrived way back in October 2013. The software update is "intended to keep the vehicle performing as intended, and to prevent durability issues from occurring in the future," an FCA spokesperson told Automotive News, and will be available to owners of both the 2014 to 2015 Jeep Cherokee and the 2015 Chrysler 200, which also uses the 9AT. While FCA will be notifying consumers of the update, owners can also request the software reflash if they happen into their dealer before then. Despite the widely documented problems with the transmission, the only complaints on NHTSA's website relate to the 2014 Cherokee – neither the 2015 Jeep nor the 200 have received any complaints. That bodes well as FCA prepares to begin deliveries of the 2015 Jeep Renegade and launch the Fiat 500X, both of which pair the 9AT with the 2.4-liter Tigershark four-cylinder. "We have had to do an inordinate amount of intervention on that transmission, surely beyond what any of us had forecast," FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne told Automotive News. "There are things that we have done – that we continue to do. Our proactive customer care intervention has actually increased in intensity on these vehicles in 2014, especially in the second half." What's fascinating about the 9AT's problems are that they haven't been the fault of manufacturer ZF, but have related to software that wasn't "mature" and had "teething problems," Marchionne has said previously, AN reports. With the lack of criticism for the 9AT in 2015 models and this pending software update, though, here's hoping that FCA has finally figured out its fuel-sipping gearbox. Related Video:

Jeep Wrangler Willys Wheeler wants mountains, not a stage

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

We've said it before and we'll say it again - while we usually grow tired of the endless barrage of special edition vehicles, that isn't the case with the Jeep Wrangler. Every unique model we encounter seems cooler than the one before it, and this Willys Wheeler Edition is no exception.
The Willys Wheeler package is sort of a throwback to early Jeep CJ models, and wears "Willys" stickers on the hood. There's also a gloss black grille, rock rails to protect the side sills, and unique 17-inch black wheels wrapped in meaty BF Goodrich KM Mud Terrain tires. For proper off-road prowess, this special edition uses a Dana 44 rear axle with a limited-slip differential and a 3.73 final drive ratio.
Look for the Willys edition to hit dealerships early next year, starting at $25,795 for the two-door version and $29,595 for the four-door. Feel free to read all about it in the press release below.

Fiat-based baby Jeep spotted testing in US and Europe

Thu, 03 Oct 2013

Details remain scarce, but our spy photographers have managed to capture the upcoming Jeep B-segment crossover for the first time, testing in both the Alps and in the US. Shown here as a cobbled-together Fiat 500L mule, the new Jeep model is expected to arrive for the 2015 model year and act as a replacement for the current Compass and Patriot models.
According to our shooter, the new "baby Jeep" will share a platform with the Fiat 500X, and both models will be built on the same assembly line in Turin, Italy. We can't tell much from these images, but the added length apparent on this 500L mule would seem to dispel the recent speculation that the new entry-level Jeep model would be sized closer to the Ford Fiesta - since the 500L is already considerably larger than the Fiesta. Powertrain options will likely mirror other Fiat/Chrysler collaborative vehicles like the Dodge Dart, but this Jeep will also try to live up to its off-road roots with an optional all-wheel-drive system.
