1985 CJ-7 Laredo, 258 straight 6 (4.2L) with 4-speed manual, 122xxx miles
The entire body exterior was recently sprayed with truck bedliner by Line-X of Lancaster
Underbody and frame coated with black POR-15 rust-preventative paint, and I'm in the process of finishing the inside of the tub with the same paint

I've had this Jeep for 2+ years and put about 20K miles on it, and it's been the most reliable vehicle I've ever owned. I'm selling it simply because I took a new job that requires an 80+ mile round trip every day, and if you've ever owned a Jeep, you understand why that isn't practical. The Jeep runs very smoothly, especially after having the carburetor professionally adjusted. Is idles at 500 RPM and gets around 20 MPG on the highway, which is excellent for this motor. The clutch and transmission have always been trouble-free and the 4x4 works great in the snow. It will be ready for off-roading with nothing more than beefier tires. I took it on as a small project that I'm finally satisfied with. That combined with my long commute has put me back in the market for a car, and has freed up time for me to take on a new project. And no, I don't want another project, so don't offer trades on anything that needs major work.

New parts include:
Original CJ fiberglass hard top
Bestop Supertop with tinted rear and side windows (installed)
Spare tan soft top, worn but still usable
Bestop bikini top included (ok so I guess that makes 4 tops, not 2...)
Warn front bumper and 6000lb Warn winch
Rugged Ridge 7" fender flares (recently installed)
Front fenders and hood (originals just starting to rust)
Mopar Performance valve cover
Hella headlights
good tread on tires
new wiper arms and blades
intake and exhaust manifold gasket, no exhaust leaks anywhere
carburetor recently cleaned and tweaked
K&N oil and air filters, always
Mojave 12,000 BTU heater
Pioneer receiver and speakers
More additions than I can remember at this point....

I'm not in any hurry to get rid of it. I'd certainly prefer to sell it for cash, $6000 OBO, but I would entertain trades for anything that gets reasonable gas mileage that I can use as a beater/daily driver IF you have cash to add. No bikes, no quads, nothing idiotic.

25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango SUVs recalled over brake feel

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

Chrysler has announced that it is recalling over 25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from several markets over concerns about brake feel under hard braking. The affected models are from the 2012 and 2013 model years, although the actual dates of production aren't available. 18,700 are in the US, while 825 are in Canada, 530 are in Mexico and a further 5,200 outside of North America.
According to a statement, Chrysler was informed of the issue by a component supplier for the Ready Alert Braking system, which primes the brakes in anticipation of an emergency stop. A component in the system was restricting the flow of brake fluid too much.
As Chrysler is quick to point out, the way the brakes functioned was in compliance with regulations and there are no reported cases of drivers losing braking power. Instead, the issue rests with what Chrysler calls a pedal feel that "was not consistent with customer expectations." So it would seem Chrysler is being proactive and fixing a problem not because there's a legal issue at work, but simply because it doesn't feel the way the manufacturer wants it to. Well done.

Jeep spied testing Hellcat-powered Grand Cherokee Trackhawk

Fri, Mar 11 2016

The Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk is coming. We know this, because Mike Manley, the head of Jeep, said so. We showed you this brief spy video a while back, but now we have our clearer images of the Trackhawk undergoing testing. And it looks just like a normal Grand Cherokee SRT. Yeah, anti-climactic, we know. The four shots we have show a bit of camo over the front bumper and grille, likely concealing a tweaked design or visible bits of the 6.2-liter, supercharged V8. It looks like there's a rather substantial opening below the upper grille, almost like a ram-air system. There's also a smidge of what looks like tape on the front wheel arches, although this might not mean much of anything. What's interesting is what isn't here. There's no perceivable change to the back of the car. The exhaust pipes look like they're about the same size, there's no noticeable changes to the aerodynamics, and in fact, there's not even any camouflage. Jeep also hasn't updated the Grand Cherokee Trackhawk's hood, which is somewhat surprising considering the changes for every other Hellcat-equipped vehicle (concepts included). You can check out our earliest look at the Trackhawk up top. As for when this monstrous Grand Cherokee will debut, we're expecting it to arrive sometime in 2017, perhaps on FCA's home turf at the Detroit Auto Show. Related Video:

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles: The next five years

Tue, 06 May 2014

Unless you've been living under a rock for the past 24 hours, you've no doubt read about all of the big future product news coming out of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles today. We had individual brand reports from Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Maserati and even Ferrari, but in the interest of simplifying and summarizing, we're going to list out the hard facts once more. Of course, with all of this still off in the future, there's still the possibility that a few changes will be made. But as of what we know right now, here's what's coming, and what's going away.
