 Up for bid is my 1988 Jeep Wrangler YJ. This is one of the nicest YJ's around. I've owned it for about 3 years. I've used it here on the farm to check fences and cows, I've not found anywhere that it wouldn't go. I hate to see it go, but using it on the farm, it is going to get trashed, and it is too nice of a vehicle for that. Before I bought it, it had been through a complete, from the ground up restoration. The body (tub) was Rhino lined, inside and out. The original 4.2 carbureted engine was replaced with a newer 4.0 fuel injected engine. More reliable and more horsepower. The transmission is a 5 speed manual. The transmission and transfer case, are both tight and noise free. The jeep has been lifted 4 inches and sits on 33-12.50-15 tires and 15x10 American Racing wheels. The interior has been customized, with a polished diamond plate aluminum dash, LED digital gauges, a bass amplifier, speaker boxes, an inverter, and the seats were professionally recovered in OSU colors of orange and gray. It never had a radio in it when I bought it, and I never put one in it. The frame has been reinforced at the steering box and a steering box brace has been added. That is a weak area on a lot of Jeeps, but it has already been remedied here. It has 4 driving lights, 2, on top of a Carr lightbar, and 2 at the base of the windshield posts. It has an ARB snorkel on it, some guys add these for deep water, and other guys add them to keep the air intake up out of the dust.  This Jeep has a little bit of surface rust on the frame, but I don't think it has any on the body. I've set the reserve well below, what this Jeep is worth. Thanks for looking, and bid like you want to own it..

GMC boss wants a Jeep Wrangler rival

Wed, 12 Nov 2014

Challengers come and challengers go, but the Jeep Wrangler continues to push forward even after vehicles like the Toyota FJ Cruiser and the entire Hummer brand have been shut down. Now GMC reportedly wants to take a stab at the quintessential Jeep, as well.
The news comes directly from Buick-GMC vice president Duncan Aldred, speaking with our compatriots over at Edmunds. Although Aldred said there are no plans currently on the table to expand GMC's lineup beyond the current range, "there is plenty of room everywhere in the hierarchy."
That could include a rival to the Wrangler, as well as a flagship luxury SUV positioned above the current Yukon Denali (pictured above). Just when (or for that matter, if) such models might come into fruition remains a big question mark, but it's certainly interesting to see what GM's dedicated truck brand has on the drawing board.

Watch this 840-hp Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 walk away from GT-Rs and M3s

Thu, Dec 11 2014

This last-generation Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 does things that SUVs just shouldn't be able to do, like win drag races against tuned Nissan GT-R and BMW M3 coupes. Granted, the owner isn't coming into this fight with a stock Jeep – far from it. In addition to twin turbos whistling away, he says the engine is a 449-cubic-inch V8, which is nearly 7.4 liters of displacement. As it runs here, the driver claims that the turbos are pumping out around 14 psi of boost to give an estimated 840 horsepower. What's more, he further maintains the powertrain could reach around 1,200 hp with things fully cranked up. Even somewhat dialed back, this Jeep is ready to take on a breadth of formidable challengers, including a couple of Chevrolet Corvette models and a Lamborghini Aventador. Check out the video to see how this menacing Grand Cherokee fares in a day at the races.

Jeep's new Chip Away commercial has us hunting Al Pacino's back catalog

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

Chrysler has done a pretty good job as of late turning its television commercials into pep talks or rallying cries, but for its first ad for the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee, it turned to Al Pacino's inspirational speech from the movie Any Given Sunday. In the movie, Pacino's character talks about how football is a game of inches, but the commercial, titled Chip Away, focuses more on the attention to detail that Jeep has exhibited on its updated flagship SUV.
Centering around the newest Grand Cherokee model, the luxurious $47,995 Summit trim level, the commercial shows off some of the hand-stitched leathers and real metal and wood accents found inside the cabin. Check out the new 60-second spot by scrolling below.
