IT'S A JEEP THING!
You are looking at a great looking 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo Special Edition which is just like the limited with painted body molding, leather power heated seats, infinity stereo, power sunroof, alloy wheels, 5.2L V8, Quadratrac full-time 4x4, keyless entry, power windows, locks, mirrors, cold a/c, and towing package! This is a used vehicle and you should expect wear and tear consistant with a 1998 model. I will go into detail on the condition, but over all this is a good running, driving, looking Jeep SUV.
The exterior of this Jeep, as you can see, is very nice. It has a nice deep black paint, that still shines like it should, it has dings and scratches, but nothing out of charachter for a 1998. I would say this Jeep looks better than most it's age and miles. The only bad spot is on the passenger rocker, there is a rust hole. The rest of the body is clean, way less than the typical rust for a northern truck, insides of the doors are clean, rest of the rockers are clean, very sharp good looking truck. The wheels are in good shape.
The interior is also a little nicer than you might expect for this year vehicle. The leather is really nice with the only extra wear on the drivers back bolster where you get in and out, you can barely see it, very minimal. The floors are clean, and the headliner is drooping over both front doors, about 3" per side long, and just barely hanging, could probably be easily glued back up. The rest of it is good. The dash is clean, no cracks. This truck is very clean, but could probably look even better with a professional detail. The windows all work, and the glass is in good shape, no cracks.
Now to the mechanical. This is a strong running V8 engine. It sounds great, doesn't knock, tick, or smoke. No check engine light. The transmission shifts great, goes through all the gears, and feels tight. This truck does have the typical Jeep rear-end whine. I've had alot of these, and every one has done it, everyone I know who has one does it, and they tend to go for years and years with no problem, other than the noise, but I don't want any suprises for anyone so there it is. The truck goes down the road nicely, I'm not going to lie and say it drives brand new, it is a 98, and I'm sure it could probably use an alignment, maybe a tie-rod end or something minor, but I wouldn't be afraid to drive this anywhere, I just took it on a 200 mile round trip yesterday, and didn't have any issues. The tires are very good, with deep tread, they may have 20,000 miles on them. You won't have to buy new tires for a while on this one. The brakes stop good, no pulse. This is one of the few trucks this age that I would take on a long trip, feel free to drive this back home as far as you need to, it's a solid Jeep.
So those are the details. Again, please be reasonable in your expectations for a 1998, inexpensive SUV. Look at the pictures and feel free to ask questions. I think this is a great truck, and will make someone a nice daily driver, winter 4x4, or someone could jack it up and have some fun with it. I'm selling it no reserve, so you set the price. Tell me what you want to pay, then come and get it. I have a clean title in hand, and will give you a bill of sale if you are out of state. If you are a Michigan resident I will need to collect sales tax, and state fees. This does have a clean car fax. Shipping is up to you, but I will help as much as I can.
Thanks for looking and Good Luck!

An inside look at Mopar's SEMA fleet
Fri, 31 Oct 2014Mopar is heading to the SEMA show in Las Vegas with a fleet of customized vehicles that appeal to enthusiasts of all stripes. There's a Dodge Viper ACR concept that follows in the lineage of the supercar's great road racing past, and a custom Ram ProMaster that might just be the ultimate outdoor party machine.
We got an inside look at Mopar's cars that will be on display at the show, which also include a Dodge Challenger T/A concept, two crazy Jeeps and a Ram 2500 Outdoorsman that could change the way you camp. While these are some of our favorites, Mopar is bringing plenty to SEMA, so let us know your top choices in the comments section.
2014 Jeep Cherokee dreams of Moab, crawls on stage [w/video]
Wed, 27 Mar 2013The all-new 2014 Jeep Cherokee inched its way onto the stage at the New York Auto Show today, proving that at least the "Trail Rated" version of the SUV is more than just a controversial unique odd fresh face in the mid-size segment. After the short, simulated Moab run by the Trailhawk model, the gray four-door was joined on the stage by a burgundy Limited model - the luxurious highway variant.
As a recap, the all-new 2014 Cherokee rides atop a modular Alfa Romeo-derived platform (we know it from the Dodge Dart) and will be offered in both front- and all-wheel drive models with a choice between a 2.4-liter four-cylinder (rated at 184 horsepower) and a new 3.2-liter Pentastar V6 (developing 271 horsepower) engine. A nine-speed automatic is standard and no less than three different all-wheel drive systems are available.
Of the four different models (Sport, Latitude, Limited, and Trailhawk), we like the rugged looks and capabilities offered by the Trailhawk the best. Overlook the red tow hooks and check out its more aggressive wheel/tire package, flared fenders, reduced breakover angle and lack of brightwork in our gallery of live images from the New York show. Skid plates and off-road capable tires round out the package. Read all the details in the official press release below.
Jeep teases pair of Moab concepts early
Tue, 19 Mar 2013With the 47th annual Moab Easter Jeep Safari coming up at the end of this month, Jeep is preparing to roll out six new off-road-ready concept vehicles. The first two being teased are the Jeep Grand Cherokee "Trailhawk II" concept and the Jeep Wrangler "Slim," and while we have no information on either, we at least get an idea of what they'll look like.
We can't tell why this Wrangler is called Slim, but it has a nice black-and-red paint scheme with a serious off-roading front bumper and five-spoke beadlock wheels. There's even less we can figure out about the Grand Cherokee's Trailhawk II concept except that it appears to be painted up in the same Crusher Orange paint job as the recently introduced SRT Viper TA. We'll likely more of these as well as peeks at the other Moab concepts as we get closet to this year's Moab Easter Jeep Safari, which will be held March 23 through 31.
