Check the AutoCheck score in the pictures, it is excellent. 
VIRTUALLY NO RUST. I have had a hand full of people come check the Jeep out, and agree that the Jeep is in Very Good Condition. (Kelley Blue Book)

Since I have owned it I have had almost $2,500 worth of parts replaced:
- New throttle position sensor
- New centrifugal water pump
- 4 new all-season extra large tires
- New exhaust manifold
- New front headlights

The last time the transmission and break have been checked was in 2011, and then they were in excellent condition. The last time I had an emission check done was around January 2012, and it passed.

As far as extra's are concerned:
- Ski/Snowboard hitch
- Bike hitch
- Bikini tops (Tan & Grey)
- Tow Package
- Rubber floor mats from "Husky"
- Steering wheel bar lock
- Spare tire lock
- Bedding (tan colored)

I brought the Jeep from California, all the original stickers are still on it. 
It still has the original owner's manual and other paper work. The pervious owners and myself have kept all paperwork regarding tests and repairs.
There was an antitheft system installed according to one of the stickers.
There are some minor chips on the paint (see image of closeup of the front of the vehicle).
I have kept the original Californian license plates.
It has been owned by non smokers.
I bought this car with minor front right bumper damage, and coincidentally got into a minor third party accident in November of 2011, where the front right bumper was also scraped. The other person's insurance company spent a total of $3,000 on having the right body completely replaced; 
- Front bumper rail
- Right front bumper extension
- Right front fender
- And more parts

The car runs perfectly! It is now in excellent shape. I am sad to have to sell it because I did invest a lot of time and money into the car, but I have to sell it because my education here in the USA is almost at and end and am planning to move back to Europe. 

If you have any further questions about my Jeep, or wish to negotiate another price, please feel free to email me!

Chrysler earns $1.7B in 2012, revises product plans for US

Wed, 30 Jan 2013

Hot on the heels of Ford's earnings announcement for the year that was, Chrysler today reported a 2012 net income of $1.7 billion, up substantially from the comparatively minuscule $183 million profit earned in 2011 when it repaid its US government loans.
Chrysler's good year ended with an excellent fourth quarter that saw net income rise 68 percent from $225 million in 2011 to $378 million. Where are all those extra earnings coming from? Market share, which Chrysler saw increase to 11.4% last year on sales of 1.65 million vehicles. In fact, the Auburn Hills, MI-based automaker out-paced the industry's market growth of 13 percent last year with sales up 21 percent for the year.
The company also revealed an updated product plan for its Chrysler Group and Fiat brands that looks all the way out to 2016. It's an updated version of the plan introduced in 2009 shortly after Fiat took control of the American automaker, and includes such new additions as an Alfa Romeo model, likely the 4C, to be introduced in the US this year, as well five more Alfa models by 2016. Likewise, Fiat will be growing by an additional seven models in the coming few years.

Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).

Chrysler 3.0L EcoDiesel V6: Autoblog Technology of the Year finalist

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

Offering a diesel engine in an American pickup is anything but new - Ford, General Motors and Chrysler all offer excellent and almost impossibly powerful oil-burning engines in their various fullsize trucks. What is new and novel about the 3.0L EcoDiesel, though, is its size, and the variety of vehicles that use it. It's the smallest engine, as far as displacement is concerned, currently offered in a large truck in the US, and, for 2014 and 2015, it is available in the Ram 1500 and the Jeep Grand Cherokee.
Though it may be small, it's got muscle. While 240 horsepower isn't particularly impressive these days, the engine's 420 pound-feet of torque more than makes up for that. The torque rating is even greater force than even the big 5.7-liter Hemi can muster. Chrysler's well-regarded eight-speed automatic transmission makes the most of all that bull-headed pulling power in both the Ram and Grand Cherokee. Chrysler claims the Ram EcoDiesel 1500 can tow as much as 9,200 pounds when properly equipped, which makes it "90-percent of the Hemi with a night and day difference in fuel economy."
Make no mistake; it's that promise of a sizable fuel economy improvement that many long-haul truckers will be most interested in. In the Ram 1500 that we tested for our Tech of the Year competition, the diesel engine costs $2,850 more than the gas-fed V8, and Ram estimates that EcoDiesel buyers will pay off their investment when compared to the Hemi engine in less than three years, which is considerably less time than the 4.5 or so years the average buyer will keep his or her fullsize pickup. The more you drive, the more you'll save, and the math proves equally as effective in the Jeep Grand Cherokee.
