This is a unique, one-of-a-kind deal; don't miss it! I purchased this Jeep in February 2013 from a Denver area dealer. I was told that the person who traded it in, purchased a new Wrangler from them and that he was a repeat customer. The salesman knew the man and indicated that the Jeep had never been off road, and I have never taken it off road. Having said that, here are the unique details and upgrades:

OEM options included:

2008 Jeep Wrangler Sahara JK 60,851 "road miles", Clean CarFax, 3.8 V-6, PS, PB, A/C, PW, PL, Automatic 4-speed with O.D., Traction and Stability Control, ABS, Tilt Steering Wheel, Dual Airbags, Privacy Glass, Running Boards, Towing Package, New Spare Tire, Cruise Control, AM/FM/SAT, CD, Navigation System, Removable Hardtop and Remote Start

Now, here are the additional goodies since I have owned it:

2008 Jeep Wrangler Sahara “Extras”

 

1)    Custom driver’s sheepskin seat cover and seat belt “slide” ( $350 in Denver) - 2013

2)   Rancho 9000 shocks ($475.00 installed) – 2013

5)   2” trailer receiver, professionally installed ($295.00) includes hitch, 2” ball and wiring) - 2013

6)   Cast aluminum rear differential cover and Dana lifetime gasket ($185 parts + differentials’ oil changed) – 2014

That’s $3,756.00 in improvements not counting extensive under hood and cabin billet, nor the five extra tires and wheels and four additional unmounted tires!! Note: When you wear out the current set of tires, put the other OEM set on and then swap out the worn tires for a set of winter (studded?) snow and ice tires. I would estimate the value of all the additional tires and wheels at least $950.00, and all the billet enhancements at $350.00. That makes my overall investment in after-market parts and installation services at $5,056.00!!


The Kelly Blue Book on this Jeep with its included OEM features is $22,094 in excellent condition. My added improvements and wheels/tires is conservatively valued at $5,056 for a combined value of $27,150. My Buy-It-Now price is only $20,999!!

Marchionne may stay with FCA until 2020

Mon, Aug 31 2015

We might get to see Sergio Marchionne and his vast array of sweaters in the auto industry for even longer than expected. The FCA CEO suggested last year that he would retire from the automaker when its current five-year plan was complete in 2018. Now, he has tentatively extended that point out to at least 2020. "I can do this for another five years if you push me, right? Beyond that, I ain't gonna do it, and I don't want to," he said to Automotive News. That would give Marchionne a 16-year career at the top from joining Fiat in 2004 to possibly leaving FCA in 2020. Although, take the CEO's statement with a grain of salt because he has made multiple statements about the timing for his retirement. In 2012, Marchionne said he would only remain in charge until 2015, which is, well, now. Those five years might also go quite quickly because Marchionne is a busy guy with the Ferrari IPO, the attempted merger with General Motors, implementing FCA's five-year plan, and many other projects. He's already considering the next CEO, though. "My purpose in life is to find the Kuniskises of the world, the Manleys, the Biglands, the Palmers," Marchionne said to Automotive News, referencing the heads at Dodge, Jeep, FCA North America, and the company's chief financial officer, respectively. "I told them, 'One of you is going to do what I do one day. I don't know who that is, but one of you is going to do it.'"

Lexus tops JD Power Vehicle Dependability Study again, Buick bests Toyota

Wed, Feb 25 2015

It shouldn't surprise anyone, but Lexus has once again taken the top spot in JD Power's Vehicle Dependability Study. That'd be the Japanese luxury brand's fourth straight year at the top of table. The big news, though, is the rise of Buick. General Motor's near-premium brand beat out Toyota to take second place, with 110 problems per 100 vehicles compared to Toyota's 111 problems. Lexus owners only reported 89 problems per 100 vehicles. Besides Buick's three-position jump, Scion enjoyed a major improvement, jumping 13 positions from 2014. Ram and Mitsubishi made big gains, as well, moving up 11 and 10 positions, respectively. In terms of individual segments, GM and Toyota both excelled, taking home seven segment awards each. The study wasn't good news for all involved, though. A number of popular automakers finished below the industry average of 147 problems per 100 vehicles, including Subaru, (157PP100), Volkswagen (165PP100), Ford/Hyundai (188PP100 each) and Mini (193PP100). The biggest losers (by a tremendous margin, we might add) were Land Rover and Fiat, recording 258 and 273 problems per 100 vehicles. The next closest brand was Jeep, with 197PP100. While the Vehicle Dependability Study uses the same measurement system as the Initial Quality Survey, the two metrics analyze very different things. The VDS looks at problems experienced by original owners of model year 2012 vehicles over the past 12 months, while the oft-quoted IQS focuses on problems in the first 90 days of new-vehicle ownership. Like the IQS, though, the VDS has a rather broad definition of what a problem is. Because of that, a low score from JD Power is no guarantee of extreme unreliability, so much as just poor design. In this most recent study, the two most reported problems focused on Bluetooth connectivity and the voice-command systems. The former leaves plenty of room for user error due to poor design (particularly true of the Bluetooth systems on the low-scoring Fords, Volkswagens and Subarus), while the second is something JD Power has already confirmed as being universally terrible. That makes means that while these studies are important, they shouldn't be taken as gospel when it comes to automotive reliability.

Jeepster name may be used for Fiat-based baby Jeep

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

In 1948, Willys-Overland, the forbearers of Jeep, built a vehicle called the Jeepster. It was a funky little thing, designed as a mix of the more rugged Jeeps that came before with what was then a modern car, which arguably makes it the world's first crossover. The name was later revived from 1966 to 1972, which means for Jeep enthusiasts, it has some history.
Now, the modern Jeep brand may revive the Jeepster name for a new product, likely based on Fiat bones, that will slot in at the bottom of the brand's range underneath the soon-to-depart Compass and Patriot. The report comes from Australia's Drive, which cites a dealer source that has seen the vehicle.
That same dealer confirmed there is a link between the Jeepster and the rumored Fiat 500X, and that the former will be available in both front and all-wheel-drive variants. The source also claims both gas and diesel engines will be available, although as this is an Aussie site, we shouldn't take that to mean we'll get a diesel Jeepster in the US.
