 This is a VERY nice original Jeep Grand Wagoneer.  We've had it for almost 2 years, and now it's time for someone else to enjoy it.  We would love to keep it, but don't have the funds to buy a pick up (which we need) and keep the Wags :( 

There is no rust (other that a rock chip here and there)  Frame is great, body is VERY good...you'd be hard pressed to find a nicer original Wagoneer and not expect to pay 15K+...reserve is way lower than that.

This thing runs great, drives great (goes 75 down the interstate no problem) 4WD works flawlessly.  Just an all around nice Jeep.

The bad.....Rear defrost doesn't work.  Rear window works, but goes down slow.  Right rear door window works intermittently.  Right front door lock doesn't push the lock up all the way.  AC works great, but needs charged in the spring (has a slow leak) Rear cargo carpet is not the best (see pictures)  Has some slow leaks that leaves spots on the floor of the garage, but doesn't need added to between oil changes.  The wood grain isn't perfect (has a couple spots mainly on the drivers door that is thin)

The good....4" lift with new BFG All Terrains (31 x 10.5 x 15)  New last fall....water pump, fuel pump, oil pump, timing chain and gears, distributor cap/ rotor, radiator, ALL belts and hoses, alternator, fuel filter, K & N air filter, just got the carb rebuilt by a local professional shop. Has original rear air dam... Interior is in GREAT shape, no rips in the seats or carpet (other than the cargo area)  Headliner is PERFECT!!!!  New Alpine car stereo with blue tooth...new rear speakers....Gladiator front end!!!  What more needs said!!!!!!

This is our second vehicle, so I had to make sure it was very reliable for my wife and kids to take off in if I had the other vehicle. 

I try to be as honest as possible...If you have ANY questions, please ask.

CASH OR CASHIERS CHECK ONLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This American Life spends a week selling Jeeps in Long Island

Thu, 19 Dec 2013

So you think you know car dealers? Well, maybe you do, but This American Life spent a month at Town and Country Jeep Chrysler Doge Ram in Long Island to give us a behind-the-scenes look (or listen, since it's a radio program) at what it's like to be a car dealer.
Yes, there's a lot of swearing in thick New York accents, frustration, confusion, and generally it's a madhouse at the dealership. But that's understandable when the sales staff has to sell 129 vehicles in October in order to get an $85,000 manufacturer bonus - with several other Jeep dealerships within a 10-mile radius.
The episode, 129 Cars, is worth a listen, but make sure you have 71 minutes to spare if you want to get through it in one sitting. Head here for the unedited version or here for the bleeped version (which is 58 minutes long).

Australian Jeep marketing stunt goes awry [w/video]

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

Jeep fans in Australia are none too happy with the off-road brand following a contest that saw ten new Cherokees sold for just $10,000 Australian (about $9,400), roughly a quarter of the vehicle's price Down Under.
The contest, called the "World's Most Remote Dealership," gave Aussies the chance to snag an ultra-affordable Cherokee Longitude (analogous to the US-spec Latitude trim), provided they could get to a secret dealership in the remote wilderness of western New South Wales, near the border with the state of South Australia.
In order to get the exact location of the dealership, though, potential customers needed to download an app, which would release a phone number 9:00 AM AEST on Thursday (7:00 PM EDT, Wednesday night). The first ten people who could call in and prove they could afford to finance $10,000 and get to the remote dealership, were given the location of the remote dealership.

Chrysler says its 8-speed transmissions will save 700 million gallons

Thu, Jun 19 2014

Chrysler Group's TorqueFlite eight-speed transmission could be earning some serious green bragging rights if the company's projections are correct. The recently widely proliferated automatic gearbox, which is now in more than a million vehicles around the world, is poised to save drivers an estimated 700+ million gallons of fuel over the vehicles' lifetimes (an expected cost savings of $2.5 billion). In addition, Chrysler expects a reduction in CO2 emissions by more than six million metric tons. According to Chrysler, and depending on the vehicle, the TorqueFlite can improve fuel economy. The TorqueFlite autobox features particularly close ratios from fifth to eighth gear (see the press release below for the specific numbers), and uses low-viscosity fluid that doesn't need to be replaced. Transmission software adapts to the driving situation to optimize efficiency based on driver behavior, temperature, grade, stability control, and longitudinal and lateral acceleration. The TorqueFlite is capable of handling a variety of duties. As evidenced by the wide range of vehicles Chrysler Group has seen fit to equip with the eight-speed transmission, the TorqueFlite is capable of handling a variety of duties. Since its 2012 introduction, the TorqueFlite has gone from performing cog-swapping duties in Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300 models equipped with the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 to changing gears in vehicles such as the Pentastar- and Hemi-powered Dodge Durango, Jeep Grand Cherokee and even the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel. For the 2015 model year, the eight-speed is finding its way into even more vehicles with the addition of a third version. In addition to the American-made TorqueFlite 845RE and 8HP70, the new 8HP90 will be manufactured in Saarbrucken, Germany. The 8HP90 is designed for higher torque loads, making it ideal for high-performance vehicles like the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat. The already-in-use 8HP70 will expand its duties to be used in 2015 Hemi models such as the Dodge Charger, Challenger, and Challenger SRT8. You can see the list of those benchmarks in Chrysler's press release below.
