Clean rust free low mileage 2004 Trail Rated Jeep Wrangler X.  Southern vehicle purchased new in AZ and then relocated to TN. where I purchased it.  Only 57,172 miles.  The Jeep has the following bonuses, Aftermarket radio, CD, MP3, detachable face radio (I also have the original radio)  amplifier with Kicker speakers added behind rear seat with adjustable bass.  Mud Claw 33x12.50x15 tires on black rims with matching wheel rim on the spare tire. (spare was removed for picture of rear tailgate)  Best Top with tinted rear windows added new last year.  3.5 inch suspension lift.  Jeep also has factory installed option of posi-trac rear end which the original owner ordered when purchased new from dealer.  All these options were added prior to my purchasing the Jeep.  There is also a high lift jack attached to the front bumper and a aluminum light bar with two KC lights that attaches to the windshield and goes over the top.  There are two more KC lights attached to the front bumper which can be re-attached to the light bar. Originally all four were on the light bar but the previous owner removed it and put two of the lights on the bumper.  The frame is as clean as your grandma's kitchen.  The paint is shiny and waxed but there are some light scratches that were too faint to photograph.  I tried but they wouldn't show up.  Non of the scratches go to the metal.  I don't know if scratch is the right word for them but that is what I am calling them for the ad.  I had the Jeep professionally detailed and they told me they could probably be buffed out.  a couple of light stone chips.  Remember this is a 2004.  There is a dent and a few scratches in the rear tailgate that was there when I bought the Jeep.  The tailgate works fine.  If I was keeping the Jeep I would get a new one pre-painted off Ebay.  Or if you're a body guy you can try to removed the dent or buy a used one from a junk yard.  Your call on that one.

The Jeep runs smooth and strong.  Doesn't knock, smoke or use oil.  The clutch is tight and it shifts smoothly.  The four wheel drive works but I never went off road with it.  I've never driven it in snow or rain except for when out and I ran into rain.  It is a fair weather jeep for me that I use when I can put the top down and it stays down.  There are "Call of Duty" stickers on the sides of the Jeep but it is not a call of duty edition Jeep.  The previous owner put them on and I just left them because my sons liked them.  They play the game.  Finally, two tires are like new but two are worn because the previous owner told me he didn't rotate them when he should have.  I have had the front end aligned and a fresh oil, filter, lube and air filter change.  This Jeep is ready to go with many features you won't have to pay for on your own to add.  Also, as a bonus, if you pay the "buy it now price"  I will throw in 4 new in the box Black Rock Series 941 Dune black steel wheels for free.  I just received these and was going to put on more road friendly tires.  They are 15 X 8 rims complete with center caps.  If I accept a "or best offer" price, you can have the option of buying them at my cost. 

So, why am I selling?  I had neck surgery and the lift, tires and suspension are a little too much for me now.  I really like the 2003 to 2006 body style and have found a stock Jeep.  Call, email or text if you want additional pictures or have any questions.  I have a clear title in hand.  Payment will require a $500.00 deposit within 24 hours of sale via Paypal.  Final payment will be due within 5 days with either cash, cashiers check or certified check from a bank or credit union.  If you pay for shipping I will work with your shipper to arrange pickup.  No money orders will be accepted.  There is no warranty on the vehicle.   Thanks for looking.

Inexperienced Jeep driver buries his Wrangler at sea

Mon, May 16 2016

There's an old maxim in off-roading that states, "Four-wheel drive doesn't keep you from getting stuck, it just gets you stuck in worse places." The truth of this statement was perfectly illustrated recently in a YouTube video of a Jeep Wrangler digging its own grave at the beach. On May 11, a YouTuber named Dan M uploaded a video he titled, "Drunk guy doesn't know how to off-road and ruins nice Jeep." The video, shot at dusk on a rocky looking beach, shows a blue Wrangler driving out into the surf without a care in the world. Dan, providing commentary along with an unseen female companion, was impressed with the Jeep driver's dash at first. "Wow, he must do that a lot because he ain't scared of getting stuck or anything," said Dan. As the Wrangler got deeper into the water, the Dan's friend expressed her doubts that the Jeep driver would make it out, especially when the Jeep got snagged on a little spit of sand sticking out into the water. Dan wasn't worried, however. "No, he'll manage to get out of there, he'll make it out of there. He'll back out and get out," he said. Dan's confidence in the Jeep driver was sadly misplaced, unfortunately. The driver managed to get the Jeep stuck on the sand bar then made the rookiest of rookie mistakes–he just gunned it. "Oh man, he's done! He's done!" yelled Dan as the Jeep driver proceeded to dig a huge hole in the sand that sunk the Wrangler up to its frame just as the tide started coming in. With that kind of dunking, especially in salt water, that Wrangler was probably a total loss, much like the Grand Cherokee that got washed downriver last week somewhere in Europe.

Dongfeng and PSA extend Chinese joint venture

Thu, Dec 19 2019

BEIJING/PARIS — China's Dongfeng and Peugeot maker PSA are extending their business cooperation, despite the Chinese company reducing its stake in PSA to help smooth the French carmaker's merger with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA). Dongfeng said on Thursday it had agreed with PSA to extend the duration of their joint venture Dongfeng Peugeot Citroen Automobiles (DPCA). Under the deal, the venture could get the rights to PSA's new brands in China and will benefit from new technologies and intellectual properties, the Chinese company said. PSA was not immediately available for comment. The announcement comes a day after the companies said Dongfeng would reduce its 12.2% stake in PSA by selling 30.7 million shares to the French company. Analysts said the move could smooth U.S. regulatory approval for PSA's roughly $50 billion (GBP38.97 billion) merger with Italian-American carmaker FCA. The sale of Dongfeng's shares in PSA, worth around 680 million euros ($757 million), will leave the Chinese group holding around 4.5% of the merged PSA-FCA, which is set to become the world's fourth-biggest carmaker by sales volumes. "As the cooperation between Dongfeng and PSA deepens, we expect the joint venture to continue making good progress in China," a Dongfeng representative said. On a conference call, Dongfeng said DPCA would have exclusive rights to PSA's Opel cars should the partners agree to bring the brand to China, and enjoy lower prices on car parts imported from PSA. Earlier this year, a document seen by Reuters showed Dongfeng and PSA plan to cut jobs at Wuhan-based DPCA and reduce its number of car plants to try to make the venture more profitable.

Dirt Every Day tries to find the best 4x4 for under $4k

Mon, 25 Aug 2014

If you want to build a cheap truck that can still do dirty deeds off the beaten path, it's best to start with solid axles and a solid V8 engine. That sums up the lessons learned after watching the 2014 Cheap Truck Challenge from the Dirt Every Day video crew, who took to the deserts and surrounding areas near Reno, NV, in an attempt to find the best 4x4 for under $4,000. Fortunately for us, the whole sordid journey was captured on video.
This isn't the first time the boys from DED filmed a Cheap Truck Challenge, and this year's festivities pitted together a 1993 Chevy S10 pickup, a 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee and a 1975 International truck in a series of challenges ranging from donuts to drag races, with plenty of hill-climbing and rock-crawling action in between. We don't want to spoil all the fun, but suffice it to say one competitor was found to be lacking while the other two performed (mostly) well. See for yourself in the video above.
