1989-1991's are clearly the best. Please read the following (and more on mine below)...
"The 1987-1991 model years "are considered the best of the breed" due to a number of upgrades. These include upgraded wood siding and modernized aluminum wheels that lost their gold colored inlays in favor of gunmetal grey metallic. All exterior colors were now applied in a two stage base/clearcoat system.
Finally, a number of further improvements were made for the 1989-1991 model year series including a quality replacement for the earlier, leak-prone air conditioning compressor, the addition of the visually identifiable rear wiper assembly, as well as a general improvement in fit and finish. An interior overhead console, taken from Chrysler's popular minivans, was also added. This functional console featured much brighter map lights, an outside temperature sensor and compass, and an infrared remote-controlled key-less entry system.
The last model years also featured new paint colors. These "new" colors included the rare Hunter Green metallic that was only available in the 1991 model year and is the paint color of the 91 Grand Wagoneer in the Chrysler museum, as well as the color of the very last Grand Wagoneer ever made, which was a significant part of the historic collection at the National Automobile museum."
And here we go...
This one is a beautiful, fastidiously maintained, stock and original, rust-free, mechanically and cosmetically excellent, freeway-driven, Southern California (1989-2010) 1989 Jeep Grand Wagoneer. It's the most desirable version of the longest production run automobile ever built in the United States (1963-1991). I'm selling it for a Waggy enthusiast acquaintance of mine (I'm the Ebay go-to guy among my circle of friends). He bought it for his wife in early 2010 and brought it to the dry, desert climate of St. George, Utah (about 100 miles north of Las Vegas). His plan was to keep it forever. Alas, plans change so he asked me to sell it for him.
It runs and drives quite perfectly by my standards. And I'm a hard-core car guy (who has owned Lexus, Cadillac and Range Rover SUV's among many others) who finds it hard to believe a vintage platform like this could be engineered to be so civilized. It's very comfortable and easy to drive in town and on the freeway (not too big and not too small). She's very tight and handles bumps and turns very well. I wouldn't hesitate to go on a cross-country road-trip today.
Please look at the pictures carefully and ask me to send you the almost 200 I have on my computer. They tell a story about every nook and cranny on this exceptional Southern California beauty much better than I ever could. The TLC this one has received in it's almost quarter century and wonderfully original, well-preserved nature will be more than evident.
Below are all the need/want-to-know's...
Zero Accident or Damage History
Always Garage Kept
New Alternator
New Radiator
New Battery
Goodyear Wrangler Tires with less than 5000 Miles
Cold Air Conditioning Already Converted to R134A
Runs Very Cool in 100 Plus Degree Weather with AC on
Still has the Retractable Cargo Cover
Everything Works Except Speedo/Odo (apparently a $20 part; it failed in April 2012) and Driver Side Electric Mirror Switch
It has also been intelligently upgraded (easily reversible) in several areas to improve driveability/reliability/appearance...
JVC Stereo with IPod Attachment Wired Through Glovebox (and it still even has all 4 original Accusound by JENSEN speakers!)
Holley Electric Fuel Pump
JEGS Dual Electric Fans with 2600CFM and Manual Switch
Manual 4WD Selector in place of troublesome vacuum-operated unit
Older, High-Quality Respray in Original Burgundy Metallic
These are the ONLY deviations from stock and enhance its utility as a reliable, practical, daily driver.
This is an impressive example of modern-day, classic, Detroit Iron. The pictures, condition (both cosmetically and mechanically), and lineage are that of a vehicle with much less than half the miles. And that's how freeway miles are; studies have shown they are virtually wear-free. They are certainly better from a usability standpoint than allowing a car to sit and languish for years, undriven. Personally, I like to drive automobiles that are actually appreciating in value. You may want to check out www.wagonmaster.com to see what the high-end of the Grand Wagoneer market looks like. Hard to believe they sell for $40K plus.
My name is Chris and I would be delighted to answer any and all your questions. Please call me at 435-669-1470. Plus, send me your non-Ebay email address so I can send you all my pics. They tell a great story. Again, I am located in the dry, desert community of St. George, Utah (about 100 miles north of Las Vegas). You may want to consider flying in and driving home. I would be happy to help facilitate that. Thank you very much for your interest.

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles: The next five years
Tue, 06 May 2014Unless you've been living under a rock for the past 24 hours, you've no doubt read about all of the big future product news coming out of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles today. We had individual brand reports from Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Maserati and even Ferrari, but in the interest of simplifying and summarizing, we're going to list out the hard facts once more. Of course, with all of this still off in the future, there's still the possibility that a few changes will be made. But as of what we know right now, here's what's coming, and what's going away.

Autoblog's Editors' Picks: Our complete list of the best new vehicles
Mon, May 13 2024It's not easy to earn an “EditorsÂ’ Picks” at Autoblog as part of the rating and review process that every new vehicle goes through. Our editors have been at it a long time, which means weÂ’ve driven and reviewed virtually every new car you can go buy on the dealer lot. There are disagreements, of course, and all vehicles have their strengths and weaknesses, but this list features what we think are the best new vehicles chosen by Autoblog editors. We started this formal review process back in 2018, so there's quite of few of them now. So what does it mean to be an EditorsÂ’ Pick? In short, it means itÂ’s a car that we can highly recommend purchasing. There may be one, multiple, or even zero vehicles in any given segment that we give the green light to. What really matters is that itÂ’s a vehicle that weÂ’d tell a friend or family member to go buy if theyÂ’re considering it, because itÂ’s a very good car. The best way to use this list is is with the navigation links below. Click on a segment, and you'll quickly arrive at the top rated pickup truck or SUV, for example. Use the back button to return to these links and search in another segment, like sedans. If youÂ’ve been keeping up with our monthly series of the latest vehicles to earn EditorsÂ’ Pick status, youÂ’re likely going to be familiar with this list already. If not, welcome to the complete list that weÂ’ll be keeping updated as vehicles enter (and others perhaps exit) the good graces of our editorial team. We rate a new car — giving it a numerical score out of 10 — every time thereÂ’s a significant refresh or if it happens to be an all-new model. Any given vehicle may be impressive on a first drive, but we wait until itÂ’s in the hands of our editors to put it through the same type of testing as every other vehicle that rolls through our test fleet before giving it the EditorsÂ’ Pick badge. This ensures consistency and allows more voices to be heard on each individual model. And just so you donÂ’t think weÂ’ve skipped trims or variants of a model, we hand out the EditorsÂ’ Pick based on the overarching model to keep things consistent. So, when you read that the 3 Series is an EditorsÂ’ Pick, yes, that includes the 330i to the M3 and all the variants in between. If thereÂ’s a particular version of that car we vehemently disagree with, we make sure to call that out.
Chrysler recalling 644k more Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs over brakes
Wed, 02 Apr 2014Early last month, we reported on Chrysler issuing a preemptive, proactive recall for about 25,000 units of the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango. The issue revolved around a brake system that wasn't causing any actual problems, but delivered an unsatisfactory brake feel, so Auburn Hills called in a good 25,000 of SUVs around the world, including 18,700 in the United States.
Now Chrysler, having apparently determined that the brake problem on its sport utes is actually much bigger than it initially realized, has drastically broadened the scope of the recall. As a result, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for precisely 655,354 examples of the Grand Cherokee and Durango, covering the 2011 through 2014 model years. In addition, Chrysler is recalling 42,380 units in Canada, 21,376 in Mexico and 159,685 overseas.
The problem which Chrysler found revolves around the brake booster, whose center shell has been found to be subject to corrosion, allowing water to get into the brake system. That water in turn could freeze, preventing the brakes from working as well as expected.
