Selling my wifes Jeep Wagoner, it was her daily driver for over a year but we needed something bigger so we got an 85 Suburban that can hold 9 people so we don't really use this one anymore.. General Specs 360ci motor, heavy duty th400 transmission, quadra trac transfer case WITH selectable low gear option. A few performance upgrades include edelbrock intake and carb (it was professionally overhauled a week ago). Fresh tune up including plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel pump and both fuel filters. The truck also has a custom exhaust (sounds good but not super loud), has a two inch heavy duty trailer hitch with 7 way plug, air adjustable rear shocks and a brake controller. It also has a custome professionally made extended range gas tank, holds somewhere are 30 gallons! Custom wheels and good tires (half inch of tread left). Interior carpet was removed and was rhino lined from the front seat to the tail gate. All windows work, are clear and undamaged, including the tailgate window (it needs a little help going up however...). The headliner is decent the seats have a few tears but are fairly comfortable. All the trim is accounted for and undamaged, the paint is very good for the age of the car, no flaking or peeling just the expected amount of rock chips. Very little rust mainly two quarter sized spots on either side of the rear seat. There are three dents on the rocker panel under the doors but you have to look hard to find them, the rest of the body is in very good condition. Overall this rig is a great driver, solid upgrade platform, or keep it as the perfect hunting rig I would drive this truck anywhere at any time with no worries, I let my wife drive my 6 yr old and my 6 mo old around in it with no worries. . The bad: a few days ago the fuse for the gauges blew, I haven't had anytime to check it out, most likely a loose connection. Also the chain in the transfer case for the front axle has stretched so it rattles, mainly when accelerating hard specifically up hill. It has no effect on the 4wd system right now and dosnt affect driving the truck, its just am occasionally somewhat loud obnoxious noise (it never even happens to my wife, only when I drive it...). Also it has air conditioning but the switch is broken. Everything looks good on the ac but i have never tried to operate it... Has cruise but it doent work either never tried to figure out why. Any questions feel free to call text or email and ill get back to you shortly. Thanks, James 503-410-6382 |

2014 Jeep Cherokee: June 2014
Wed, 09 Jul 2014I got a text message from Editor-In-Chief Sharon Carty one afternoon proclaiming that her new favorite SUV is our long-term 2014 Jeep Cherokee. And she's not alone. I'm not sure if anyone else on staff would go so far as to use the "favorite" descriptor, but after just over a month of honeymooning with our new long-termer, it's safe to say that the Jeep is quickly finding its way into the good graces of a number of Autoblog staffers.
There's good reason for all that praise, too. Thus far, the Jeep has proven itself to be incredibly competent and comfortable for daily life - it's functional, quiet, and packed with a host of amenities that make it easy to live with. It's been wholly trouble-free (with less than 4,000 miles on the clock as of this writing, it ought to be), but even nitpicks have been few and far between.
Federal investigations about safety of rear-mounted gas tanks is nothing new
Sun, 09 Jun 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Chrysler are currently making waves in our daily news feeds due to a disagreement over the safety of a few million Jeep Liberty and Grand Cherokee models. Specifically, NHTSA has asked Chrysler to recall the SUVs because of the location of their fuel tanks, but you may be interested to know that requests such as this are nothing new.
Besides the two Jeep models, NHTSA has launched investigations over the years in such models as the Ford Crown Victoria (and its police-car counterpart), GM pickups built between 1972 and 1987, and rather famously the Ford Pinto.
Understanding how automakers and NHTSA have dealt with fuel-tank-safety concerns in the past may offer a better understanding of how Chrysler and the government agency will settle their current dispute. Check out the complete article from The Detroit News here.
NHTSA still mulling crash tests for recalled Jeeps
Thu, 15 Aug 2013Well, no one should ever accuse the government of not giving things plenty of thought. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is still debating whether it will retest any of the 1.56 million 1992 to 1998 Grand Cherokees and 2002 to 2007 Libertys that were part of a recall regarding fires after rear-end collisions. And yes, this debate has been going on for over a month. In other news...
The recall dustup started in early June, when Chrysler took the unusual position of refusing a recall request from NHTSA regarding placement of the fuel tank on the effected vehicles. NHTSA said a collision could cause a fire, a position Chrysler took issue with. Extensive negotiations ensued, with Chrysler agreeing to fit certain Jeeps with trailer hitches, which it said would provide some protection to fuel tanks mounted behind the rear axle in the event of a collision.
Part of the issue rests with the amount of data that needs to be processed, according to The Detroit News. NHTSA administrator David Strickland said during a Washington Auto Press Association meeting, "There's a lot of data and Chrysler is being very cooperative in giving us more data." Until that information has been sorted, it looks like re-testing will still be up for debate.
