5/6/2013  Let's try this one more time.  I received multiple inquiries after my most recent listing with offers well over where the bidding got to.  If you want to buy the Jeep, bid on it.  My reserve is $25K but if I have some decent participation I will consider lowering that number.  I will not do a "buy it now".  I will be happy to answer any questions about equipment or condition.  Condition is easy though, it's new throughout.  For those dealers who have inquired, maybe this is a $40 k vehicle off of your lot.  It's a show-stopper.  Email your questions and if necessary we can go to the phone.  In the event of a no-sale, I will negotiate with you after the sale only if you participated.  Good luck, bid well, bid often, there is nothing else like this available here.              Disregard the "Base sport utility" and 4.2liter mentioned in the above description. 

      Originally commissioned by a local entrepreneur for use at his beachfront property in Mexico.  Built by CW Performance in Longmont, Colo, Carl Wells (RIP) has built some very nice vehicles.  I have receipts for over $100K spent, no nut or bolt has been left untouched.  Only the highest quality pieces were selected for this build. 

      Engine started lifeas a 1999 Wrangler 4.0 liter.  It was rebuilt and uses fuel injection, a Crane Cam, a larger throttle body and a very gorgeous Hesco aluminum head.  A Borrani header takes care of the exhaust flow.  It runs great.  The clutch is a Centerforce, the trans a rebuilt Borg/Warner T5.  Dual Optima batteries are held in a Wrangler Products battery tray.  An aluminum radiator is cooled by twin electric fans, thermostatically controlled.  Front and rear diffs are 4.56 ratio, the rear an AMC 20 (I believe) with locker, the front equipped with an Ox locker controlled from inside.  Axles are either new or remanufactured as are the driveshafts.  Both diffs feature attractive alloy covers.  Brakes are new and equipped with stainless brake lines.  Suspension is by Fab Tek and Rubicon.  Rubicon express with 4.5" lift and Rubicon extreme duty shock kit.  The wheels are Sertes (the invoice was a little unclear) model 397 and are shod with Goodyear Dura/trac 33/12.50/15 tires, 5 of them.  A Skyjacker transfer case lowering kit is also fitted.  The bumpers are both Warn brand with a rear tire carrier and front winch mount options.  The Warn winch is a Powerplant Dual Force with air compressor built in.  Winch controls are both wired and keyless remote.  A very professional roll cage will keep you unruffled.  All lighting is special, featuring Delta H4 conversions, Hella lights and KC spots.  All running lights are LED and look very cool.  Warn Rock Sliders protect the rocker panels.  A high lift jack is securly mounted above the spare. 

      The frame has been powder coated, the body or tub has been Rhinolined on the underside as well as the interior.  The Gold color professionally done of course.  The hood, windshield, windshield frame are new.  The instruments are either new or reman and work perfectly.  A Kenwood radio/navigation/dvd is enhanced by an Alpine amp and Boss as well as DC Gold speakers.  The Trailmaster seats are matching, front and rear.  A pilot to co/pilot intercom system is included for when the going gets very exciting.  Headsets with mic's are included.  Tuffy brand center console protects the radio and a dash mounted Tuffy security glovebox protects other valuables. 

      The Besttop roof and windows as well as doors are only about 3 years old.  The Jeep was finished in 2008 and has about 2800 miles.  I use the term "new" a lot in describing items, in truth everything has been used for 2800 miles.  Other new or reman items I forgot to mention:  steering box, ball joints, tie rod ends, Q Snorkel, poly fuel tank, steering wheel, and much more. 

      I got the Jeep from the gentleman who commissioned the build.  I would like to move it on to finance my road racing habits.  If you ever wanted to put together an awesome Jeep, here it is.  My name is Jack and I am certainly available to answer your questions.  I have perfect feedback and want to keep it that way.  Good luck and please bid.

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.'"

This week we cover some recent news like the upcoming Land Rover Discovery, updates to FCA's large car platform (including the Challenger), and talk about water injection. Then we go into what we've been driving - David just finished his time in the Porsche Panamera Turbo and Mike tried the GMC Acadia. And then Mike (who is still uncomfortable writing in the third person) goes on a rant about why automakers shouldn't specify which cars are aimed at women. The rundown is below.

2014 Jeep Cherokee configurator up and running

Fri, 09 Aug 2013

Production delays aside, Jeep is steaming towards its September on-sale date for the 2014 Cherokee. The reborn midsizer's configurator has just gone live, meaning you can fiddle with different options, colors and trim levels to your heart's content.
The cheapest model available is the 4X2 Sport, which starts at a reasonable $22,995. On the high end, the Cherokee's builder allowed us to indulge our passion for ludicrously priced vehicles by outfitting the top-end Trailhawk, which already starts at $29,495, with $8,610 in options. The resulting car, which you can see above, would retail for $39,100 after the $995 destination is factored in.
Head on over to Jeep's build-it-yourself website and have a look around.
