1969 Kaiser Jeep Jeepster Commando Pickup! 225v6 New Paint Ownership History 4x4 on 2040-cars
Branson, Missouri, United States
This 1969 Kaiser-Jeep built Jeepster Commando pickup truck is a living surviving example of the beginning of the now popular Sport/Utility Vehicle. Adorned in well applied BaseCoat ClearCoat equivalent of its original Empire Blue tone, this truck has withstood the tests of time and has actually been owned by the same family line since the early 1970's. Current ownership documented back to 1978 and the truck was inherited at that point. It has ween well cared for, garaged and maintained as needed and the new paint expertly applied in 2013 and the addition of new emblems to really freshen up this cult like classic.
Equipped with the venerable Dauntless 225ci V6 at 155hp, 3 speed manual trans and a manual shift transfer case and Warn Lock Out hubs, this 4x4 light sport utility is perfect for cruising around the back roads and has spent many a hunting trip in the high country of Colorado Elk hunting on numerous occasion. Perfect for the rancher who wants to run the trails in a simple yet effective utility vehicle. The removable top opens up the cockpit to the sunshine and blue sky environment and makes entry and egress even more efficient. A good looking, well painted and pampered Jeepster with working 4x4 and well preserved original running gear make this a great vehicle to have around the ranch or just for tooling around the neighborhood. Call TOM @ 417.335.2600 for more details and the background story on this timeless classic. |

Going high-tech, the 4x4 way
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Is It An Off-Road Adventure Or Just A Walk In The Park?
I remember having to get out and lock hubs and shift into neutral to engage low range.
Coming off press previews of the 2013 Land Rover Range Rover and the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee that involved some heavy-duty off-road rock climbing, I'm simply amazed at the capabilities that these vehicles possess. But even more impressive (or troubling depending on your perspective) is the relative ease with which you can operate these vehicles in seemingly impossible terrain.
Jeep spied testing new compact crossover
Tue, Nov 24 2015Jeep is preparing a new crossover to slot in between the Renegade and Cherokee. Spied here for the first time, the new model is expected to arrive sometime around the middle of the new year. And with it, FCA's off-road brand will finally have a successor for the Compass and Patriot. From the little bit we can project at this early stage, the new C-segment Jeep is expected to ride on a modified version of the platform that underpins the Renegade and Fiat 500X. Motivation is tipped to come from the company's new 2.0-liter turbocharged Hurricane inline-four mated to a nine-speed automatic transmission. We expect it to come in front and all-wheel-drive versions. The big question mark at this point is what the vehicle will be called. As the replacement for both the Compass and the Patriot, this model could adopt either nameplate – or it could wear a new one entirely. If the Renegade and 500X are anything to go by, the new Jeep could be offered as a Fiat as well, which could easily be dubbed the 500XL. We'll have to wait and see, but in the meantime you can check out the prototype – albeit in camouflaged form – in the image gallery above. Related Video:
Jeep Wrangler Mojo and Cherokee Dakar teased ahead of Moab Easter Safari
Wed, 02 Apr 2014Jeep has an annual tradition of debuting wild, new concepts during its Easter Jeep Safari, and this year looks to be no different. The automaker has already confirmed two of the six vehicles for 2014 - the Cherokee Dakar (pictured above) and Wrangler Mojo. This year's event runs in Moab, Utah, from April 12-20.
There are no official details about either of the concepts yet - Jeep will release more info on the new models next week. Judging by the pictures, though, the Cherokee Dakar appears to be lifted with some knobby off-road tires. The Wrangler Mojo looks to have a bulging hood that might hide a more powerful engine underneath.
Past vehicles at the Easter Jeep Safari have included a Hemi V8-powered Wrangler, a classically inspired pickup and modernized Jeep Forward Control. Since this is the brand's chance to express itself every year, hopefully it has some more sensational concepts up its sleeve. Scroll down to read the little information that has been revealed about this year's models so far.
