If you are looking for a rare Jeep, this is it! 1979 was the first year of the Jeep Wagoneer Limited with the full size woodgrain. They are very difficult to find because they were made in limited numbers compared to the later Wagoneers. These "Grand Wagoneers" are American cultural icons. They are considered to be the world's first sport utility vehicle. The first year of production was 1963 and the final model year was 1991 under Chrysler supervision. 1979 was the pinnacle of the Wagoneer build quality and level of luxury under AMC ownership. Grand Wagoneers have been used in countless movies and advertising campaigns over the years. This particular Jeep is a major head turner, you will get thumbs up wherever you go. This car really strikes a chord with people and they can't help but compliment the beautiful design elements. Every single time I drive it I receive a multitude of compliments which makes it all the more difficult to sell. Selling due to a long distance move. These Jeeps are currently sold by a few different restoration companies for between $40,000 and $100,000 dollars each. By comparison this Jeep is a great deal many times over. There are so many great reasons to own a Wagoneer. They are extremely versatile and dynamic vehicles that aren't only a pleasure to own and drive but a very wise financial investment too as they have been appreciating rapidly in recent years. In the long run an exceptionally clean, rare, special order California car like this will be the most sought after. Clear title in hand. Perfectly clean Carfax report with NO accidents. Your car is HERE, look no further...!

Here's why you shouldn't try to drift a Jeep Cherokee

Tue, Nov 25 2014

This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. There are many reasons why an XJ-generation (or really any other) Jeep Cherokee doesn't make for a good drift machine. It's tall, it's four-wheel-drive... it's a Jeep, okay? But someone apparently forgot to tell that to this guy. Uploaded to LiveLeak, this video shows some poor schmuck who took his Cherokee to a (mostly) empty parking lot and tried to drift it. Needless to say, things didn't go quite as he planned, but they probably went exactly as you might have expected. Thankfully, nobody appears to have been hurt. Or at least, we assume so, since the guy apparently survived to put the video up online.

WWII Jeep 'found in crate' set to cross Greenwich auction block

Thu, 30 May 2013

Fans of old military vehicles might want to pay extra close attention to the Greenwich Concours d'Elegance coming up this weekend. Crossing the Bonhams auction block on Sunday are a pair of seemingly flawless World War II Jeeps, which are both expected to fetch serious dollars.
Lot Number 305 at the auction is a 1945 Ford GPW Jeep that has been fully restored, which is expected to command between $35,000 and $45,000. Shortly after the Ford GPW, a potentially more interesting 1944 Willys MB (shown above) will be auctioned off, but Hemmings raises some red flags about this Jeep. First, it is claiming to have been "discovered in its original crate about 30 years ago," but there is no proof or documentation of any sort. Also, it is claiming to be all original, but it was given a paint job "shortly after it was discovered." Even with these questionable descriptions, this Willys could reach between $20,000 and $30,000. Head over to Bonhams' site and Hemmings for more information on both WW2-era Jeeps.

2015 Ford F-150 named Truck of Texas, Lincoln and Jeep also awarded at Truck Rodeo

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

The Ford Motor Company has a lot of reasons to celebrate after winning eight categories in this year's Texas Auto Writers Association's annual Truck Rodeo. Most important among them, the Blue Oval's latest 2015 Ford F-150 earned the prestigious Truck of Texas award, ending the Ram 1500's two-year winning streak. The 2015 Lincoln MKC also grabbed the honor as the CUV of Texas, and Ford was named Truck Line of Texas.
FoMoCo even took trophies for best technology with its extensive use of aluminum on its latest F-Series and best commercial vehicle for the new Transit 250. It wasn't a total sweep, though, because the Jeep Grand Cherokee grabbed the title of the SUV of Texas for the fifth straight time.
This year's event put 60 auto writers in 75 pickups, SUVs and crossovers and challenged them to find the best in a plethora of categories. All of the winners are listed below, and scroll down to read the full announcements from the Texas Auto Writers Association and Ford.
