1999 Jeep Cherokee Two Door, Rare Color And With Select Trac 4x4 on 2040-cars
Torrington, Connecticut, United States
1999 Jeep Cherokee Sport 2 Door 218,640 Miles This is a no reserve auction. The highest bidder drives her away. For your consideration I present this loaded Jeep Cherokee in a very rare color with the one year only and one color only matching wheels (Only offered this way for 1999). The two-door is very seldom seen. And this Jeep Cherokee is equipped with the optional Select-Trac 4 wheel drive system, a full-time system that allows you to stay in four wheel on the open highway as well as to select part-time four wheel in both high and low range for full capability. Don’t let the mileage fool you this Jeep has had every system sorted. She is ready to roll and can be driven anywhere. I only offer cars on Ebay that I have owned and driven myself and I have a 100% positive feedback record. The Jeep has just about every option you could order on a two door Cherokee Sport back in 1999. Power windows and locks, cruise control, lighted vanity mirrors, even a full size spare tire is included. All the systems and electrical are working as they should. I have added a modern disc radio with blue-tooth and hands free phone capability for better entertainment and the original cassette radio is also included. I also put in a trail type seat that I hoped would be more comfortable than the original. It isn’t, and the original seat will come with the vehicle if you wish to switch it back. The car has never been off road during my ownership. I added a top quality tow bar receptacle to carry a bike rack in. The Jeep has never been used for towing. I purchased this vehicle 4 1/2 years ago for use by my daughter while attending college in Northern Maine. Much of the mileage was accumulated taking the long trip back and forth to there from western Connecticut. I kept all systems maintained meticulously so that Madge (my daughter named her) would be a safe and reliable ride throughout the Jeep’s life with us. The engine runs smooth and delivers all the power a 4 liter Jeep six should. The transmission shifts through all gears as it should and the 4 wheel drive engages smoothly and operates well in all its modes. There are no leaks or seepage from any of the seals and gaskets and the Jeep uses no oil between oil changes (done every 3,000 miles). The air conditioning blows ice cold and was recently serviced. A list of maintenance done is presented below. 4 new tires were put on at 215,217 miles. Things needing attention: Madge has lived a colorful life in New England and some of it shows. The underside of the vehicle has rust through in the passenger side floor and rust in the driver side floor as pictured. The sub-frame is not rusted and is in good condition and the underbody is otherwise sound. The floors will need to be fixed at some point but because the sub-frame goes right under them there is no danger of putting your feet through. The Jeep is solid and drive-able as is. The body is in good condition as pictured but this is a 15 year old used Jeep so there are nicks and scratches here and there. The passenger side drip rail molding was lost and replaced with an aftermarket type. It is not original and not the right color but it is presentable. I have not been able to find the original part but it is out there somewhere. The Jeep encountered a bear several years ago and the front grill, bumper and moldings had to be replaced. No structure damage occurred however. Maintenance List: New hatch struts and latch mechanism New Alternator New Distributer Cap, Plug Wires, Rotor, Spark Plugs New Rear Leaf Springs, Spring Shackles and Shock absorbers New Power Steering Pump and New Belts New Exhaust Manifold, New Exhaust Gasket and Connector Pipes New Harmonic Balancer New Sway Bar Bushings and Sway Bar Link Kit New Air Conditioning Compressor, New Air Conditioning Dryer New Brakes and All New Brake Lines New U Joints New Radiator and All Hoses New Transmission Cooler Lines New Left Front Hub and Bearing Assembly New Complete Exhaust System Four New Tires (Less than 5,000 miles on the tires) New Professionally Installed Windshield This is only a partial list of maintenance items done. The Jeep comes with a complete set of receipts for parts and labor done during the 4 1/2 years of my ownership. As stated all systems are functioning and Madge is ready to drive. This Jeep is located in Torrington, Connecticut and is to be picked up there. The buyer must make all arrangements for shipping if the car is to be shipped. If the winner wishes to fly in and drive the car home I can provide transportation from Bradley International Airport near Hartford, Connecticut or from other nearby airports upon request. As mentioned the car is ready to go and I would feel confident hopping in and driving to San Francisco tomorrow. Please feel free to ask any questions. Happy bidding.

Jeep Cherokee Trail Carver is a more rugged Trailhawk
Wed, 06 Nov 2013We briefly mentioned the Jeep Cherokee Trail Carver that was heading to SEMA last week when discussing the Mopar lineup set to be shown in Las Vegas. At the time, though, we weren't able to dive too deeply into details. But with SEMA in full swing, we were able to sneak over and grab some snaps of one of the first modified Cherokees we've seen. The Cherokee is, after all, kind of an unknown quantity in the modification department, being so new and featuring such a polarizing design. We were quite interested to see what Mopar could come up with.
Starting with the Trailhawk 4x4 and its 3.2-liter V6, the engine is fitted with a Mopar cold-air intake and a new exhaust, although it's not clear what sort of power boost has resulted. We'll admit, we were hoping Jeep and Mopar would get a bit more aggressive with the Cherokee's suspension (has anyone thrown a few-inch lift on the new Jeep yet?), but there's no mention of upgrades beyond the knobby, off-road tires. Those should do some good when the going gets rough, while rock rails are there to protect the Auburn Pearl paint on the body.
Speaking of that paint, it's complemented by an interesting graphics package in contrasting black and Crush Orange. The cabin sports Katzkin Amaretto leather seats, along with tech-friendly items like a wireless charging system for cellphones and wireless internet.

Massachusetts man charged $48,000 for a tow [w/video]
Wed, Oct 28 2015Tow truck operators are right up there with landlords and IRS auditors on the list of professionals you don't want to deal with. A man in Massachusetts has all the more reason to avoid a tow after he was hit with a $48,000 bill, Fox 25 reports. Joel Ramer and his girlfriend were off-roading in Walpole, MA last week when they wandered were they shouldn't have. They landed in a mud pit on private property. Ramer said it took Assured Collision towing company 12 hours to free his vehicle from the muck. But when he got the bill for the tow, he thought the accounting department must have been off by a decimal. "When I went to pick up the vehicle from Assured Collision, he'd informed me there was some damage done to the vehicle, but didn't get into details. He also informed me the bill was $48,000," Ramer told Fox. "I thought they made a mistake." The phrase 'some damage' was putting it lightly. Ramer says Assured Collision totaled his Jeep. "Frame is broken, leaf spring is broken, drive shaft is broken," Ramer said. The itemized bill showed Ramer exactly what he was paying for. Assured Collision charged him $16,000 for an on-scene supervisor. That's $1,250 an hour. The Statewide Towing Association told Fox 25 that the actual industry standard is $175-$325 an hour. The company also claimed that power lines put them at risk, calling it a "hazmat situation." That allowed them to tack on another $5,000 fee for dangerous condition liability insurance. Finally, there was an extra $10,000 fee for an off-road recovery incident response unit. Insurance won't help with the cost of the tow, so Ramer's broke Jeep is in Assured Collision's hands. On top of the enormous bill and busted Jeep, Ramer was arrested and cited for trespassing on land owned by a utility company and disturbing the peace.
