Located in Castroville, California.  In Monterey county's central coast. 
This is a 1987 Jeep/AMC Cherokee Limited 4x4. VIN:1JCMR7896HT144194.  Automatic transmission that shifts great.  The 4.0 Liter inline 6 cylinder runs great and is responsive.  It is the early version of the 4.0 litre which is know as the RENIX engine.  It currently has under 134k original miles but they are going up since I'ts my daily driver/commuter.  I am the second owner I believe however the Carfax shows only one owner.  Original owner's manual and window sticker.  New looking spare tire.  I purchased it from a nice lady who provided me with thousands of dollars worth of maintenance receipts dating back to the early 90's.  The 4x4 system is the selec-trac I believe and works well as I have only shifted to try out how it drives but have not taken in it off road.  The interior features black perforated leather seats in excellent shape for their age, and trim pieces, as well as gray perforated upper door panels and dashboard.  Black carpet in excellent condition that is always protected with all weather rubber mats as well as the original Jeep floor mats.  The headliner is black and is only about 3 months old.  It has a pop-up sunroof that the previous owner had installed.  The dash has no cracks but there is minimal "yellowing" on some spots. There is a light gray dash mat that protects it.  All electronics work.  However, the driver side power window is slower going up than the driver side.  Keyless entry system works intermittently only.  Power locks, power front seats, the cruise control works as well.  The A/C blows cold air and the heater works fine however, it no longer lights up at night since a few weeks ago.  Instrument cluster lights work as well as the brake warning light, low coolant light, high beam indicators etc.  I will put up pictures soon and be sure to include detailed pictures of the cosmetic things it needs it could use.  Other than that, the reason I am selling my Jeep is that I have been commuting to school now and will benefit more from a smaller car as I also have a v8 truck.  Local buyer is welcome and I can deliver within 100 miles.  Otherwise buyer will make their own arrangements as far as picking it up goes.  Please contact me with any questioned and I will be as detailed as possible in answering them to the best of my ability. Thank you for looking.

Side-X-Sides: The next Wrangler?

Wed, Feb 24 2016

The Jeep Wrangler has a huge following, but I've long thought that it is ripe for plucking. And if rumors of a neo-Bronco prove to be true, it sounds like Ford may agree. If a new Bronco does pan out, I hope it's small like the original Bronco, and not a huge F-150-based vehicle. To be a true Wrangler-fighter it has to be small and nimble. Here's another option How about developing a slightly larger, but street-legal version of the popular side-x-sides which are so popular with hunters, fishermen, farmers and anyone outdoors-oriented? This, to me, seems to be the next logical evolution of these side-x-sides. Currently side-x-sides have to be either trailered or stuffed into the back a of a pickup to wherever they're going to be used. Offering a street-legal off-roader solves that problem. There's no shortage of side-x-side makers out there. Any one of them could engineer and market such a vehicle, should they decide to. Plus there are plenty of dealer outlets, although Honda is the only one that currently sells cars, etc.; so they could have an edge in the selling and servicing aspects of such a vehicle. That said, I'm not sure Honda would want to sell such a vehicle in their car outlets. It may be better suited to their dealers that sell motorcycles, ATVs, watercraft, etc., as that outdoorsman type of customer already frequents those dealers. Then again, if the new Ridgeline proves popular, such a vehicle could offer something much more capable and sporting to that customer who is looking for something more extreme. The Wrangler has its fans, and they love it just as it stands. In fact Wrangler fans would reject any drastic engineering changes to their beloved off-roaders Side-x-sides, on the other hand, offer a completely different take on how to engineer a small but serious off-roader. Both are valid approaches. Currently the only thing missing are street-legal side-x-sides that go head-to-head against the Wrangler. Having more purchase options available is always a good thing; seems like a no-brainer to me. Image Credit: Honda Jeep Off-Road Vehicles open road

Jeep will show new Grand Wagoneer to dealers this summer

Mon, Jun 8 2015

It's generally accepted that the Jeep Cherokee was the first real midsize sport utility vehicle to make headway into the hearts, minds and driveways of American consumers in 1984. While that SUV was aimed at the mainstream, it could be argued that the vehicle that made the idea of a luxury SUV possible was the seminal Jeep Grand Wagoneer. We've been hearing rumblings of a revived Grand Wagoneer for years, but if a report from Automotive News is accurate (despite the fact that it seemingly contradicts an earlier report from the same outlet), the wait may nearly be over. Jeep plans to show off its new Grand Wagoneer at the upcoming dealer show in Las Vegas in August, and while that doesn't give any real indication of when such a vehicle may make it into the hands of consumers, such news probably at least means the automaker has a finalized design. While we're mostly over retro-inspired cars, we'll happily cast a vote toward a three-row Grand Wagoneer with faux woodie body sides, if anyone cares to tally it...

Jeep Cherokee finally dealer-bound

Tue, 22 Oct 2013

We had our First Drive of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee last month, but it appears that prospective buyers won't have too much longer to finally get time behind the wheel of the new small Jeep.
Automotive News is reporting that after a two-month delay, Jeep dealers will finally start receiving their first shipments of the new Cherokee, in the next 10 days. A Chrysler spokesperson confirmed to Autoblog that the Cherokee is indeed on its way to Jeep dealers.
According to AN, about 23,000 Cherokees have been built since production commenced back in June, but potential powertrain issues forced Jeep to make adjustments to the Cherokee along the way. Automotive News says that in order to make sure there are no issues with the Cherokee before it reaches customers, it is testing each vehicle after it rolls off the assembly line at a rented test track near the vehicle's Toledo North Assembly Plant.
