RUST FREE  1998 Jeep Cherokee RARE 2 DOOR.  Great for First Car, Commuter or RV Tow.

This Jeep  has been in South Georgia and Alabama all its life. I bought it from the daughter of the original owner. so it is really a two owner vehicle. Non-Smoker. It is clean for the age and miles.The interior is as nice as you'll find for the age.  I intentionally did not "over-detail" for the photos so that the true condition is depicted.

ICE COLD AC; Cruise Control; Tilt Wheel; Power Mirrors; Manual Windows; 5 Speed , It has new carpet, Sony aftermarket CD with MP3 input. Everything  works as it should.  Drivers sun visor does have sun damage.

Engine has plenty of power (for 2.5L); Transmission and Clutch operate smoothly; has new Harmonic Balancer and Timing Chain Tensioner. Brakes, Shocks and Springs are fine. Steering does have some play, but it drives well and handles safely for a vehicle with highway miles. As expected,  It does have normal rattles and squeaks. Has stock sized highway tires. Probably 50% or less.

The body shows normal wear for the age and mileage, but no signs of abuse. It does have some normal parking lot dings, rock chips and minor stains, mostly tree sap.  The doors are tight and do not sag at all.

Please see photos and feel free to ask any questions.

FCA's shifter fiasco proves novel gear selectors are a bad idea

Tue, Feb 9 2016

What's wrong with PRNDL? Why are automakers trying to overly complicate the simple task of selecting gears? If there's any lesson to learn from the recent news that NHTSA is investigating 853,000 Fiat Chrysler vehicles over its problematic gear selectors, it's that the trend of fancy shifters needs to stop. Now. Last year, NHTSA opened an investigation into Jeep Grand Cherokee models, and has now expanded this probe to include the 2012-14 Chrysler 300 and Dodge Charger. The problem? The shifter – assembled by ZF – is confusing for many drivers. "Testing ... indicates that operation of the (electronic) shifter is not intuitive and provides poor tactile and visual feedback to the driver, increasing the potential for unintended gear selection," a NHTSA document states. More than 100 crashes and over a dozen injuries are linked to this problem, according to The Detroit Free Press. To us, the problem isn't just limited to FCA. These unnecessarily novel gear selectors are spreading like wildfire across the industry. Honda and Acura use a weird pushbutton setup. Lincolns have buttons on the dashboard. Jaguar's shifter electronically raises out of the center console. Mercedes uses a stalk with up-for-Reverse, down-for-Drive, push-for-Neutral arrangement. And what the hell is BMW thinking with its M cars? FCA has since abandoned the confusing shifters in question. The 300, Charger, and Grand Cherokee now use the rotary shift dial that's quickly proliferating across the company's brands. Simplistic gear selectors might not be sexy, but no one ever complained about not being able to find the right gear in a Hyundai Sonata. What's most interesting is that this NHTSA investigation could push FCA – and possibly other automakers – to redesign vehicle functions that otherwise operate as designed. Just because most people will never have a problem putting a Dodge Charger in Reverse doesn't mean there isn't a flaw with the design. But perhaps a more simplistic solution – good ol' PRNDL – would have prevented these issues from the start.

Watch this 840-hp Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 walk away from GT-Rs and M3s

Thu, Dec 11 2014

This last-generation Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 does things that SUVs just shouldn't be able to do, like win drag races against tuned Nissan GT-R and BMW M3 coupes. Granted, the owner isn't coming into this fight with a stock Jeep – far from it. In addition to twin turbos whistling away, he says the engine is a 449-cubic-inch V8, which is nearly 7.4 liters of displacement. As it runs here, the driver claims that the turbos are pumping out around 14 psi of boost to give an estimated 840 horsepower. What's more, he further maintains the powertrain could reach around 1,200 hp with things fully cranked up. Even somewhat dialed back, this Jeep is ready to take on a breadth of formidable challengers, including a couple of Chevrolet Corvette models and a Lamborghini Aventador. Check out the video to see how this menacing Grand Cherokee fares in a day at the races.
