Here is a rare collector grade find. A completely original paint (AMC Firecracker Red) and decaled (Levi tan) Jeep CJ Renegade. This Jeep is the LAST YEAR for the Levi Renegade package and it maintains all of its original features.  This Jeep has not been restored and has not been repainted.  If you are looking for an original collector Jeep, look no further, and purchase with confidence.  I have been a Jeep collector for 20+ years.  This Jeep is one of the nicest and most optioned/original Renegade's I have come across.  The Jeep has just over 50k original miles and you can still listen to the original AM factory radio.  This particular Renegade has the factory/dealer optioned Ramsey... winch still works.  There is absolutely no rust or rot on this vehicle. If your looking for an original AMC era Jeep, this is it. This is truly a Jeep enthusiasts and automobile collector's masterpiece. In the CJ Jeep world, these are not found often! It has a very rare combination of the desirable 304 V8 with an automatic/quadra-trac transmission.  This vehicle was special ordered for a retired attorney in Idaho.  I purchased the Jeep from the adult son of a family friend.  The Jeep has a neat history, so feel free to call and inquire about it.  This color combination is considered very desirable.  The American Motor Company actually used this color scheme in an advertisements like the one pictured below. The attached pictures speak for themselves; however, if you would like to request others, feel free to call.  

The vehicle shifts and drives very smooth. It drives STRAIGHT down the interstate at 70 MPH.  Again, this is a great driving Jeep that ANYONE can enjoy.  The decals/paint are original and have GREAT PATINA! The frame is straight and there are are no signs of damage or repairs.  The frame and tub is in EXCELLENT condition (see pictures).   You will look long and hard to find another cleaner, more original, Jeep CJ in existence!  Both sets of wheels will be included if the "Buy it Now" price is met.  Please, Call seller before making an offer through EBAY.

Please call if you have ANY questions or would like to make an offer.

Chrysler 3.0L EcoDiesel V6: Autoblog Technology of the Year finalist

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

Offering a diesel engine in an American pickup is anything but new - Ford, General Motors and Chrysler all offer excellent and almost impossibly powerful oil-burning engines in their various fullsize trucks. What is new and novel about the 3.0L EcoDiesel, though, is its size, and the variety of vehicles that use it. It's the smallest engine, as far as displacement is concerned, currently offered in a large truck in the US, and, for 2014 and 2015, it is available in the Ram 1500 and the Jeep Grand Cherokee.
Though it may be small, it's got muscle. While 240 horsepower isn't particularly impressive these days, the engine's 420 pound-feet of torque more than makes up for that. The torque rating is even greater force than even the big 5.7-liter Hemi can muster. Chrysler's well-regarded eight-speed automatic transmission makes the most of all that bull-headed pulling power in both the Ram and Grand Cherokee. Chrysler claims the Ram EcoDiesel 1500 can tow as much as 9,200 pounds when properly equipped, which makes it "90-percent of the Hemi with a night and day difference in fuel economy."
Make no mistake; it's that promise of a sizable fuel economy improvement that many long-haul truckers will be most interested in. In the Ram 1500 that we tested for our Tech of the Year competition, the diesel engine costs $2,850 more than the gas-fed V8, and Ram estimates that EcoDiesel buyers will pay off their investment when compared to the Hemi engine in less than three years, which is considerably less time than the 4.5 or so years the average buyer will keep his or her fullsize pickup. The more you drive, the more you'll save, and the math proves equally as effective in the Jeep Grand Cherokee.

Total auto recalls already on record pace in 2014

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

If you've noticed that there have been more recalls than usual this year, you may be on to something. According to a report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the US market is on pace to break a record for recalls. In 2013, 22 million cars were recalled. We're only a third of the way through 2014, though, and we've already halved that figure, with 11 million units recalled. That's wild.
Considering the past few months, it shouldn't be a surprise that General Motors is leading the charge, with six million of the 11 million units recalled coming from one of the General's four brands. Between truck recalls, CUV recalls and the ignition switch recall, 2014 hasn't been a great year for GM.
Other recall leaders include Nissan (one million Sentra and Altima sedans), Honda (900,000 Odyssey minivans), Toyota (over one million units in a few recalls), Volkswagen (150,000 Passat sedans), Chrysler (644,000 Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs) and most recently, Ford (434,000 units, the bulk of which were early Ford Escape CUVs). So while it's been a bad year for GM so far, its competitors aren't doing too well, either.
