1996 Jeep Cherokee Classic Sport Utility 4-door 4.0l 5-speed Manual Transmission on 2040-cars
Stafford, Virginia, United States

Selling a 1996 Jeep Cherokee with 172K on the
odometer. It’s been a great vehicle for us, but it’s time for it to go to a new
home. We are the second owner of the Cherokee, first owner was a naval aviator
who had it from 1996 until the end of 2011—the Cherokee spent its time in
California, Maryland, Virginia, and Florida.
We bought it two-and-a-halfnyears ago, but now our children are in
college and we’re doing some downsizing of our vehicles. This Jeep has been well taken care of and
really has done no extreme off-roading.
Here are the particulars of the Jeep. 1996 Cherokee four doors – body is in great shape, there is no rust. I will note that the driver’s door has some dent damage, although the door opens and closes with no problem. I have included a picture of the door so you can see the dents. The previous owner did some cutting on wheel wells to accommodate larger tires. He did a great job and it looks well-done. See the pictures. Color – Red, this Cherokee was kept inside most of its life, so the paint is in pretty good shape. There is some peeling along the front fender, but for an older vehicle the paint is in good shape. It cleans up really well. 4.0 liter six cylinders engine, in absolutely great condition. It pulls strong, no smoke at all, this motor had oil changes every 3,500 miles. Transmission – 5 speed, pretty rare in Cherokees. We put a new clutch in about 10K mile ago and being an older transmission, we put in Redline MT-90 transmission fluid. Gearing – This Cherokee is geared low, max speed in 1st is about 10mph and the Jeep in 2H maxes out at 65 mph. It’s geared great for the out-of-doors. No problem engaging the four wheel drive in 4H or 4L. Suspension – Four inch high country lift, well-done and we put it on the rack recently to make sure everything was tight underneath. Wheels – Goodyear Wranglers on American Racing centerline rims. Tires are LT 265/75R16s. They have @12K miles on them; they’re in really good shape. We have a full size spare on the rear swing arm. Interior – Light gray in pretty good shape, no stains or tears on the upholstery. The driver’s seat is showing wear and some cracks on the side, but it is serviceable. Maintenance – Both owners religiously followed the maintenance. In the last 5K miles we replaced the starter, battery, and installed a better Flow Kooler water pump. On the dashboard we installed a water temperature gauge. Extras: · Spare tire swing arm with a fully mounted spare · Driving lights on separate switch in the front and twin back up lights on another switch – it’s great to have these lights when you out in the wilderness at night. · Class three tow hitch with ball. · Side rocker panels to assist step up if needed – these are legitimate well built steel side steps bolted on, not cheap cosmetic ones that break. · Roof rack · CD radio with six foot antennae · Virginia safety inspection good through March 2015. · There are no leaks with this vehicle, the transmission seals are tight. Don’t hesitate to send me an e-mail with questions. It’s a great vehicle, a lot of fun, and you’ll get many positive looks and comments. Here are some questions I answered a previous time I put the Jeep up for auction (I had a buyer who never completed the sale) Answers to Questions

Forza Horizon 3 adds Ford Police Interceptor, Jeep CJ5
Tue, Oct 4 2016We're only a few weeks past the debut of Forza Horizon 3, and already the folks at Turn 10 are introducing the first of six car packs for the open-world driving game. Focused heavily on performance, there are still a few, um, oddballs, including one we're sure Forza's livery customizers will have a blast with. The Smoking Tire Car Pack brings seven new vehicles to FH3, with the Aston Martin Vulcan, Pagani Huayra BC, GTA Spano, Lotus 340R, and BMW M2 repping traditional performance vehicles. As per usual, FH3 renders each car beautifully and promises a solid approximation of real-world performance – even if you do ditch the roads and opt to rampage through the Australian countryside. While performance is good, the Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor and the Jeep CJ5 Renegade bring an off-beat vibe to this particular pack. We aren't certain, but this might be the first time the Police Interceptor appears in a blockbuster driving game. While we expect plenty of police car liveries for the Crown Vic, Forza's rabid community of tuners and customizers are sure to do much more with it. As for the CJ5, is there a better vehicle for tooling about Australia? Yeah, we didn't think so. The Smoking Tire Car Pack is available for free as part of the Forza Horizon 3 Ultimate Edition or Car Pass program. Commitment-phobes can also download this single vehicle pack for $7.

Jeep Liberty under investigation for door fires
Tue, 29 Oct 2013The Jeep Liberty has already had plenty of attention for possible fires thanks to the first-gen model's fuel tank, but now the midsize Jeep is under the microscope of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration for another fire-related concern. NHTSA has opened an investigation for the 2012 Liberty after receiving two reports of electrical fires in the driver's door.
According to the investigation summary, around 80,000 vehicles could potentially be affected by this problem. In both reported fires, the drivers noticed smoke and then flames from the master power window switch, and they had to pull to a stop and exit through the passenger side of the SUV. According to Autoguide, there was one injury to a motorist who suffered burned fingers while trying to open the driver's door.
Interestingly, the Dodge Nitro is not yet involved in this investigation, even though it was still around for the 2012 model year; the Nitro ended production in 2011 about a year before the final Liberty rolled off the line for the 2013 model year. Scroll down for the official NHTSA investigation summary.
Blake Anderson drives an over-the-top patriotic Jeep
Thu, Jan 15 2015Comedian Blake Anderson is seeing growing success as one of the stars and co-creators of the Comedy Central show Workaholics. Not surprisingly, when you get your own TV show, there's a deep desire to celebrate with a big purchase, a car perhaps. Anderson did just that, but as opposed to plunking his money down on a Porsche or Mercedes-Benz, he took a much more patriotic route. Anderson described his ride as "an American Jeep" in an interview with Conan O'Brien, and he didn't mean that it was from the AMC years of the off-road brand's ownership. Instead, this one is as patriotic as they come thanks to a beautifully regal bald eagle covering the hood with the nation's flag as the background running up at least to the windshield. Hear Anderson's entire story of buying this red, white and blue off-roader in the video above.
