American Icon for sale:

This listing is for a very clean and original 1991 Final Edition Grand Wagoneer. This fine example was ordered by the president of the dealership for his own use. This truck rolled off the assembly line on May 23 at 8am in the morning. He ordered this particular Jeep with all the options, even the rare factory sunroof.

This Grand Wagoneer was one of only 1560 produced for the 1991 model year as the last one was made on June 20, 1991. There is no way of knowing the VIN sequence since they jumped all around but this should be somewhere within the last 100 made. Buy this as a collectable item or to drive, but either way this is a must own piece of American Jeep history.

The Black Cherry Pearl paint on the truck is a dealer repaint that was done in 1993 as part of a factory recall. All vinyl and wood trim were replaced within the last month!

Along with the paint all the stainless trim was polished to a high shine. This is a low mileage rust free truck. This Wagoneer still retains the factory fog lamps and factory Jeep covers, which are getting very hard to find especially in this condition.

The interior is all original as it was shipped other than speaker replacement. The original carpet is the ultra plush which is no longer available for sale. Lots of aftermarket companies sell stock carpet kits but they aren't anywhere close to stock. I recently purchased custom floor mats to match the carpet.

Truck still retains the stock radio and it works. The Jensen speakers were replaced. This is not a booming stereo but it was never meant to be. The cordovan leather interior is in great shape and all original to the truck. There are no rips or tears in any of the seats. The original plastic protection is still under each leg of the seats. I replaced the headliner within the last 4 months.

Under the hood it retains mostly all the factory parts. Had a complete tune-up (less than 1K miles ago) which includes carburetor rebuild, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, air filter, fuel filter, new fuel pump, oil filter, new Valvoline Maxlife 10-30 oil. New Amsoil transmission fluid and new filter. Both differentials have new Amsoil 75-90w severe gear oil. This truck was prepared for a possible long trip. All vacuum hoses that appeared dry or brittle were changed at the same time. This truck has spent its entire life in a garage in North Carolina so it has never been exposed to road salt and sand. It was brought back (on a flatbed) to the Midwest in 2013, always stored indoors while I did a few renovations.

Tires on the truck are brand new with less than 1,000 miles on them. They are Hankook whitewalls with a 60,000 mile tread wear rating. All grease fittings under the truck has been greased. So a list of work done in last two months: Window wipes Tires Hankook WSW zero miles Carb rebuilt Spark plugs, wires, cap, rotor Rear window motor All new fluids New Mopar window regulators in all windows. This fine example of a Wagoneer is available for viewing and inspection at anytime.

Is this a brand new Jeep? NO. Is this a piece of American history? Most definitely. It is 99 percent original and one of the cleanest close to originals left. This is a very nice truck and deserves a good home. Please if any questions feel free to ask. Ok now on to the requirements of the auction. You must have a decent feedback score to bid. I expect a 1000 dollar deposit to be made within 24 hours of auctions end. Full payment must be made within 7 days in the form of bank wire, cashier’s check, or plain good old American cash. I will be happy to work with you as far as pickup. If you have it shipped I will do everything in my powers to work with your shipper.

2014 Jeep Cherokee: June 2014

Wed, 09 Jul 2014

I 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.

Ram and Jeep Wrangler drive Fiat Chrysler profits up 61 percent

Thu, Feb 7 2019

MILAN — Italian American automaker Fiat Chrysler says fourth-quarter net profits rose by 61 percent, powered by North American sales of the all-new Ram 1500 and Jeep Wrangler. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles on Thursday reported quarterly net profits of 1.29 billion euros ($1.46 billion), compared with 804 million euros in 2017. Revenues rose 6 percent to 30.6 billion euros. North America profits grew by 19 percent to 6.2 billion euros, accounting for the lion's share of the automaker's global profits. The carmaker continued to have trouble in Asia, which swung to a loss due to market weakness in China and more competition in Fiat Chrysler's core SUV market. Europe also lost ground, with profits dipping 44 percent on lower shipments and weaker pricing, while Latin America more than doubled. Based on the company's earnings last year, 44,000 unionized U.S. auto workers will get $6,000 profit-sharing checks. That's $500 more than in 2017, but smaller than U.S. rivals Ford and General Motors. On Wednesday, GM announced that workers would get $10,750, while Ford workers will get $7,600.Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

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.
