This wagon was original purchased by a doctor that drove it daily and was parked in his garage nightly. The second owner was his friend which owned a local shop. He used it to pull his boat other wise it was parked in his storage with the boat in his shop. This Wagon has been taken care of its whole life. It is my daily driver and I park it in the garage every night. It even sits in the garage over my new truck. I hate to sell it but its time to part ways. 

Within two years, less than 10,000 miles:
Rebuilt trans, 3" Lift, New tires, oil pump, water pump, thermostat, radiator and power steering pump.

About a year ago:
The rear window stopped working. The switch in the tailgate stopped working, It was replaced with Military grade switch designed for this application.

Within 2 months:
New rebuilt OEM carb replacement, new CA cat, air filter, coil, cap, rotor, wires and plugs.

Even with the care that was taken with this vehicle it does have some flaws. The wood paneling has a couple small nicks on the driver door and on the rear passenger door. They are only visible when looking for them. The paint is in good shape but does have flaws. The hood had some pearl essence spilled on it as well as the rear bumper, see pics. The interior over all is in great shape. The dash is not cracked and looks good. The leather is in great shape but does show some wear on the driver seat and the driver rear seat, no rips or tears. The headliner is in great shape but does have a 6" snag in the rear. The trans was rebuilt including a new torque converter. The transfer case was pulled and taken apart at the same time. The chain does have very minor play but was recommended to not change anything. When its put into reverse it does smack a little because of the transfer case but does not affect driveability and the 4wd does work. The engine oil pan gasket does have a minor leak. I use synthetic oil and only change it every 3k miles. I never need to add oil between changes. CA buyers make note it will not currently pass an emissions test. Out of state sale preferred for this reason. it is barely not passing due to the unadjustable carb is running slightly rich for california standards. This is a 26 year old vehicle that was well cared for but it has been a daily driver for most of its life, its not perfect. 

Title in hand and ready to be signed off.
$500 due within 48 hours of the winning bid (non refundable) and the remaining balance to be paid in full upon pick up. 
Shipping is buyers responsibility. I will be willing to work with the buyer as much as possible for pick up.
If you have questions please email me and I will respond same day..

YouTube tallies votes for this year's top five Super Bowl spots [w/video]

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

When we asked you to tell us which of this year's 16 car-themed Super Bowl commercials you liked best, you chose the Farmer commercial from Chrysler Group, advertising the Ram trucks, over Audi's Prom commercial in second place. Turns out the voters in YouTube's Ad Blitz poll agreed, voting the same commercial to the number one spot from among the field commercials in every category.
From there, however, they went in a totally different direction. Budweiser's The Clydesdales spot came second, Samsung's The Next Big Thing took third. The Jeep Whole Again ad scored fourth in the YouTube poll, fifth in our poll of auto commercials, and the Hyundai Team spot got fifth from the YouTubers, but ninth in our poll.
The voting results don't match up with the viewing numbers, though - while Farmer has more than 13 million views, The Next Big Thing is well beyond 21 million. You can read the press release below and see all five spots, lined up for you, one more time.

Chrysler set to make $266M-investment into 8-speed transmission production

Wed, Dec 10 2014

Chrysler will shortly make a significant $266-million investment into its Kokomo, IN transmission factory in a bid to expand production of its eight-speed automatic transmissions. The gearboxes, which are built under license from Germany's ZF Friedrichshafen, have been well received by customers and critics, and according to an SEC filing obtained by Automotive News, the transmissions will eventually find their way to all of Chrysler's rear-drive offerings (Viper and heavy-duty Ram models, aside). According to AN, a Chrysler spokesman says the investment has not been confirmed, but once it is, it'll mark the company's latest in a growing line of investments at the facility. Chrysler has poured $1.5 billion into Kokomo since 2009.

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.
