2011 Jeep Patriot Latitude 70th Anniversary Editio on 2040-cars
North Port, Florida, United States
This is a beautiful like new Jeep Patriot Anniversary Edition. These are rare especially in this color combination of Brilliant Black Clearcoat Metallic and Black interior. This is an excellent street Jeep in Front wheel Drive configuration. I used this mostly on the highway for my sales business. I am now retired and have no need for this extra car. This is my second Patriot (my first was an 08) and has proved to be quieter and better riding than the first one. It also gets better gas mileage and I have attained as much as 36 mpg on the highway. I can regularly average 28 mpg at speeds of 70-75 mph. This Jeep is loaded with factory accessories (please see the picture of the laminated window sticker) and also has the added dealer features of Homelink Garage door opener, Voice activated stereo and Bluetooth phone, Daytime Running Lights, Factory Tow hitch (only towed a small trailer once), Winter Slush Mats, Roll up Cargo cover, Cargo Nets, Roof Cross bars and Cargo Basket (never used). There is also a almost new set of Firestone Winterforce tires mounted on Jeep Patriot Steel 16 inch wheels that I used one winter for 3500 miles. The vehicle does really not need snow tires but when they are on the winter handling is greatly enhanced. They are quiet and could be used all year round if desired. The vehicle is in excellent almost new condition with no accidents, rust or body damage. There are some stone pits on the grill from high way driving but other than that the vehicle looks new. The Anniversary Edition Floor mats were place in the vehicle for the pictures and have never been used. The interior is as close to perfect as one could get. I am an auto and Jeep enthusiast and have driven well over 500,000 miles in Jeeps and have owned two Wranglers, a Cherokee, a Grand Cherokee, a Liberty and two Patriots. I can say this is the most comfortable and best of all of my Jeeps--I especially appreciate the hauling capabilities, the ability to carry 4 adults in comfort (the back seat is very spacious) and the excellent fuel mileage which is consistently 23 city and 28 highway.

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Diesel and SRT climb onto stage
Mon, 14 Jan 2013This is indeed a case of not knowing how much we wanted something until it arrived. We've been big fans of the Jeep Grand Cherokee ever since the new model arrived a couple of years ago, and while the update you see here might seem just a slight refresh, it's actually much more than that.
For starters, the 2014 Grand Cherokee marks the return of a diesel model here in the States, with Chrysler's new 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 under the hood, churning out 240 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque, mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Of course, all of the Grand Cherokee's usual off-road goodies are on hand, with moderate tweaks to make it an even more capable vehicle when the going gets rough. Both the gasoline-fed 3.6-liter V6 and 5.7-liter V8 get the new eight-speed auto, as well.
The high-performance Grand Cherokee SRT also trudges on into the new model year, with very subtle tweaks found underneath the aggressive, slightly redesigned sheetmetal. The 6.4-liter Hemi V8 also gets eight-speed gearing, which Chrysler says will improve not only 0-60 times, but mid-range performance as well. Bring it on, we say.
Federal investigations about safety of rear-mounted gas tanks is nothing new
Sun, 09 Jun 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Chrysler are currently making waves in our daily news feeds due to a disagreement over the safety of a few million Jeep Liberty and Grand Cherokee models. Specifically, NHTSA has asked Chrysler to recall the SUVs because of the location of their fuel tanks, but you may be interested to know that requests such as this are nothing new.
Besides the two Jeep models, NHTSA has launched investigations over the years in such models as the Ford Crown Victoria (and its police-car counterpart), GM pickups built between 1972 and 1987, and rather famously the Ford Pinto.
Understanding how automakers and NHTSA have dealt with fuel-tank-safety concerns in the past may offer a better understanding of how Chrysler and the government agency will settle their current dispute. Check out the complete article from The Detroit News here.
Retro Review covers that Jeep Wrangler TJ you wanted in high school
Fri, May 8 2015The Jeep Wrangler TJ holds a dear place in my heart. When they were introduced, the return to circular headlights helped pull my dad into the dealer, and he bought one. A few years later, I learned how to drive a stick in that Jeep. Now, MotorWeek has fired up the time machine for a look at the '97 Wrangler as part of the Retro Review series. One of the great things about these videos is that they offer a chance to see if nostalgia lives up to reality. In this situation, that seems to be the mostly case. Even when new, MotorWeek finds a lot to praise about the TJ, especially in terms of handling and style. It's not all perfect, though, with a major complaint about the braking. Watch the clip to see if the show's take on the Wrangler lives up to your memories of them, too.
