1996 Jeep Cherokee Classic Sport Utility 4-door 4.0l 5-speed Manual Transmission on 2040-cars
Stafford, Virginia, United States
Selling a 1996 Jeep Cherokee with 172K on the
odometer. It’s been a great vehicle for us, but it’s time for it to go to a new
home. We are the second owner of the Cherokee, first owner was a naval aviator
who had it from 1996 until the end of 2011—the Cherokee spent its time in
California, Maryland, Virginia, and Florida.
We bought it two-and-a-halfnyears ago, but now our children are in
college and we’re doing some downsizing of our vehicles. This Jeep has been well taken care of and
really has done no extreme off-roading.
Here are the particulars of the Jeep. 1996 Cherokee four doors – body is in great shape, there is no rust. I will note that the driver’s door has some dent damage, although the door opens and closes with no problem. I have included a picture of the door so you can see the dents. The previous owner did some cutting on wheel wells to accommodate larger tires. He did a great job and it looks well-done. See the pictures. Color – Red, this Cherokee was kept inside most of its life, so the paint is in pretty good shape. There is some peeling along the front fender, but for an older vehicle the paint is in good shape. It cleans up really well. 4.0 liter six cylinders engine, in absolutely great condition. It pulls strong, no smoke at all, this motor had oil changes every 3,500 miles. Transmission – 5 speed, pretty rare in Cherokees. We put a new clutch in about 10K mile ago and being an older transmission, we put in Redline MT-90 transmission fluid. Gearing – This Cherokee is geared low, max speed in 1st is about 10mph and the Jeep in 2H maxes out at 65 mph. It’s geared great for the out-of-doors. No problem engaging the four wheel drive in 4H or 4L. Suspension – Four inch high country lift, well-done and we put it on the rack recently to make sure everything was tight underneath. Wheels – Goodyear Wranglers on American Racing centerline rims. Tires are LT 265/75R16s. They have @12K miles on them; they’re in really good shape. We have a full size spare on the rear swing arm. Interior – Light gray in pretty good shape, no stains or tears on the upholstery. The driver’s seat is showing wear and some cracks on the side, but it is serviceable. Maintenance – Both owners religiously followed the maintenance. In the last 5K miles we replaced the starter, battery, and installed a better Flow Kooler water pump. On the dashboard we installed a water temperature gauge. Extras: · Spare tire swing arm with a fully mounted spare · Driving lights on separate switch in the front and twin back up lights on another switch – it’s great to have these lights when you out in the wilderness at night. · Class three tow hitch with ball. · Side rocker panels to assist step up if needed – these are legitimate well built steel side steps bolted on, not cheap cosmetic ones that break. · Roof rack · CD radio with six foot antennae · Virginia safety inspection good through March 2015. · There are no leaks with this vehicle, the transmission seals are tight. Don’t hesitate to send me an e-mail with questions. It’s a great vehicle, a lot of fun, and you’ll get many positive looks and comments. Here are some questions I answered a previous time I put the Jeep up for auction (I had a buyer who never completed the sale) Answers to Questions

Tue, 10 Dec 2013The 2014 North American International Auto Show is right around the corner, which means it's high time we found out which cars and trucks would be finalists for the prestigious North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards.
The finalists - three in cars and three in three trucks/utilities - are dominated by American brands, with two-thirds of the finalists hailing from either General Motors or Chrysler (don't worry Ford, there's always next year), while outliers from Mazda and Acura can be found in each contest. Here now is the list of finalists for the big prizes:
2014 North American Car of the Year:
Stellantis suspends vehicle production in Russia
Tue, Apr 19 2022MILAN - Stellantis on Tuesday said it was suspending production at its Russian plant due to logistical difficulties and sanctions imposed on Moscow. The world's fourth-largest automaker, which produced and sold the Peugeot, Citro¸n, Opel, Jeep, and Fiat brands in Russia, has just 1% of the country's car market. It runs a van-making plant in Kaluga, around 125 miles (201 kilometres) southeast of Moscow, co-owned with Japanese carmaker Mitsubishi, which halted production at the facility earlier this month. "Given the rapid daily increase in cross sanctions and logistical difficulties, Stellantis has suspended its manufacturing operations in Kaluga to ensure full compliance with all cross sanctions and to protect its employees," Stellantis said in a statement. The plant employs 2,700 people. The company will continue to pay salaries through a local downtime scheme and by using anticipated vacation periods, Stellantis told Reuters. It said it did not know how long the stoppage would last, adding that its priority was its staff and the return of peace. Stellantis had already suspended all exports and imports of vehicles with Russia, following Moscow's invasion of Ukraine, moving production to western Europe. It had also said it was freezing plans for more investments in the country. Van production in Kaluga had remained just for the local market. Scores of foreign companies have announced temporary shutdowns of stores and factories in Russia or said they were leaving the country for good since Russia began what it calls "a special military operation" in Ukraine on Feb. 24. Stellantis Chief Executive Carlos Tavares in late March said the group would have to close the Kaluga plant shortly as it was running out of parts. Separately on Tuesday, General Motors Co said it was extending its suspension of business in Russia due to the conflict and international sanctions. The U.S. automaker, which initially suspended imports into Russia and commercial activity on Feb. 28, said it was laying off most of its 66 employees and providing them with separation packages. GM does not have plants in Russia and only sold about 3,000 vehicles annually there prior to the suspension.

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee gets surprisingly comprehensive update, new diesel power
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Traditionally, 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.
