AMC....Where Quality Is Built In, Not Added On.  Well along with the quality, they added a touch of rust to mine.

Here is one of the last AMC Jeeps built and this one is as typical a Wagoneer as you will find. It runs great and has fantastic 4WD, but it is rust prone. I have owned this Wagoneer for 10 years and it has been fairly dependable, but when the gas prices went up, I started using it less and less. Now it needs some work to make it great again and I do not feel like bothering. I had the floors fixed years ago, but they are soft again. Mostly by the front and rear passenger doors. The hump seems solid as does the load floor. The rear brake line on the drivers side rusted out and the exhaust needs replacement. It is lot drivable, but I wouldn't hit the highways with it (maybe on a dare involving cash). The heater core looks like it is leaking when I brought it out to take pictures. The hitch also is pretty tired from rust too.

On the plus side, it always starts right up and the 4WD is operational and I have never gotten stuck with it even though I run street tires on it. It has a real 4 low on it which will pull out tree stumps. The paint on it still shines up and the woodgrain is pretty decent for a 26 year old car. The air did work but it has a slow leak and I had to recharge every other summer. It is still R12. I had a detachable face CD player professionally installed when I bought it that still works with newer front door speakers. The rear speakers are shot. The interior is very nice and the leather is still intact and pliable. The headliner is still up and isn't tore up. The front windows work fine but the rears are slow. Tailgate window works, but not the defroster.

This would make a great driver if someone has the patience and time to do floor pans and all the other issues I tried to describe. It always got positive comments wherever I went with it because there just are not many of these around anymore. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

No money orders. No third party out of state checks. No chickens or other livestock. No Polish Zloty, Thai Baht or Mozambique Meticals. US Cash or cashiers check only.

FCA fibbed on sales according to internal report

Mon, Jul 25 2016

Following last week's news that Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) is under investigation by the Department of Justice and Securities and Exchange Commission for allegedly fudging sales figures, a new report in Automotive News says an internal investigation at FCA uncovered misreported sales. According to the AN story, 5,000 to 6,000 vehicles from various FCA brands were reported sold by dealers, but no customers existed for those cars. FCA sales chief Reid Bigland has already put a stop to the practice. One potential reason for the practice was to maintain the company's month-to-month sales increase streak, currently at 75 months. In April, FCA added a lengthy disclaimer to its sales announcements: "FCA US reported vehicle sales represent sales of its vehicles to retail and fleet customers, as well as limited deliveries of vehicles to its officers, directors, employees and retirees. Sales from dealers to customers are reported to FCA US by dealers as sales are made on an ongoing basis through a new vehicle delivery reporting system that then compiles the reported data as of the end of each month. "Sales through dealers do not necessarily correspond to reported revenues, which are based on the sale and delivery of vehicles to the dealers. In certain limited circumstances where sales are made directly by FCA US, such sales are reported through its management reporting system." FCA did not provide comment to Automotive News.

SEMA crowns Mustang, FR-S as this year's hottest cars in the building

Wed, 31 Oct 2012

After wrapping up the first day of the 2012 SEMA Show, organizers handed out awards for some of the trendiest vehicles on display. Since the whole point of SEMA is to show off new products available in the aftermarket world for use in cars, trucks and SUVs, each year, the show distinguishes the most popular vehicle in various segments. Not surprisingly, this year's Hottest Car and Hottest Sport Compact are the Ford Mustang and Scion FR-S, respectively, while the Ford F-Series brought home the Hottest Truck and the Jeep Wrangler was named the Hottest 4x4-SUV.
More than 2,000 companies are at this year's show, and the display booths represents a "vote" for each car to determing the trendiest vehicles in each of the four categories. It isn't clear if these awards also take cars brought by OEMs into account, but the Mustang and FR-S were definitely well represented by both OEM and aftermarket show versions.
As usual, the OEMs showed up in force at the this year's SEMA Show exhibiting a variety of cars ranging from production-intent cars like the beastly Ford Mustang Cobra Jet to much flashier rides like Scion's Carbon Stealth FR-S.

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee gets surprisingly comprehensive update, new diesel power

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

Traditionally, automotive journalists can be heard muttering something to the effect of "Geeze, it's about time!" whenever a vehicle's midcycle refresh is revealed. As we routinely see and drive new models many months before the public even claps eyes on them in showrooms - and then go on to tweeze apart their minutia in our daily writings - perhaps some impatience is to be expected. With so much exposure to a given vehicle, it's fair to say we tire of most cars and trucks far more quickly than the average consumer.
The alterations are handsome, if not subtle touches from the "If It Ain't Broke" school of design.
Which is why we're pleased to say "Oh, is it time for that already?" when it comes to the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The current WK2 Grand Cherokee hit the market in 2011 and climbed its way into our hearts with its rugged good looks, go-anywhere capability and surprising refinement. We're not yet tired of its appearance or performance, but even so, we're very glad to see Chrysler giving its flagship Jeep some attention, including a much-anticipated diesel powertrain option and some other economy-minded measures.
