Wellfleet, Massachusetts, United States
More details at: trumantwwatring@uknurses.com .
Offered for sale is an excellent example of a 2005 Wrangler TJ Unlimited (LJ) with 180,000 miles on the odometer.
You aficionados of modern Jeeps already know and understand the scarcity and popularity of this iteration of the
Jeep icon. This Jeep has never been wrecked, and has always been properly serviced. The Jeep was registered in New
York, however the previous owner would drive cross country to Florida every year in it (snowbird), thus it has
never seen a New England winter.
The first owner was a retired military officer. He had aftermarket options added to it throughout the time he owned
it and enjoyed the Jeep for ten years, using it every day; I am sure you can do the math 180k on the clock in 10
years is a lot of driving 90% of which was highway, however this Jeep was never off-roaded. The transmission was
replaced by the dealer and has less than 10,000 miles on it, after the swap it will cruise at 2000 RPMs going 70
MPH all day. During the swap the engine was looked over and necessary replacements were made. Those of you who have
been waiting for this Jeep will already know and appreciate its plethora of performance enhancements. My wife and I
just had our first child, thus, begrudgingly this awesome truck must be sold.
In addition to everything Jeep blessed this very capable off-roader with, here is a list of the 17k invested in
additional enhancements:
Rough Country 3" Suspension Lift
Rough Country 1" Body Lift
Bilstein Shocks front and rear
Rigid Industries R-46 Spot/Flood lights
Rigid Industries Dually Flood lights
QRC Front Bumper
XRC Rear Bumper with Tire Swing
Brand new aftermarket radiator with Silicone HPS hoses
New Jasper Overdrive Transmission w/ transmission cooler and temperature gauge
Magnaflow Custom Exhaust
Rancho Steering Stabilizer
Tom Woods Drive Shafts
Disk Brakes on all 4 corners
Brand new Optima Red Top Battery
Cooper Discovery All-Terrain Tires
Bed-lined Interior and Undercarriage
Fogged Frame (prevents any rusting from inside the frame, which is very common on these trucks)
Aftermarket Delta Headlights
Corbeau Leather seats
Bestop Rear Jumper Seat
Kenwood Aftermarket Radio
Pyle Marine Amp
All of the factory audio was replaced with Kicker Speakers
Bestop Slantback Soft top-Allows the front section over the driver and passenger to be folded back independently
like a sunroof. The top is in excellent shape - no holes, tears, rips or fading and the windows are all clear. The
original paint is in excellent condition and shines very well.
The Blue Book value on this truck is ~$10,000 bone stock, you will not be able to own a better example of a well
modified Jeep without dumping 17k into one yourself.
Feel free to ask questions. . .

2013 AEV Brute Double Cab
Fri, 11 Jan 2013These are the guys who bring an M777 howitzer to a knife fight. In terms of overall rugged utility, the all-new 2013 Brute Double Cab from American Expedition Vehicles (AEV) is about as overkill as they come, and we can't seem to get enough of the beasts that this company produces. Unlike most aftermarket firms, always striving to lower cost and increase volume (but at the expense of quality), Michigan-based AEV takes pride in its OEM-quality design, engineering, manufacturing and testing. Everything is as good, or better, than the stuff from the factory, and they have been doing it this way for more than 15 years.
Launched at the recent 2012 SEMA show was the 2013 AEV Brute Double Cab. Its debut marked the company's expansion to a four-door Brute on the newer JK platform (drawing inspiration from the Land Rover Defender 130). I recently spent a few hours with the new truck in sunny Southern California, though unfortunately, due to time constraints, I was limited to pavement-only driving impressions.
Driving Notes
Europe gets Jeep Wrangler Polar limited edition
Wed, 04 Sep 2013Jeep will be bringing an all-new, limited-edition model to the European market called the Wrangler Polar. Based on the Wrangler Sahara and set to make its debut at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show, the Wrangler Polar sports new Hyrdro Blue paint, gloss black 18-inch wheels, a body-color hardtop, and the regular mix of Mopar styling accessories. Billet Silver Metallic and Bright White are available for those that don't dig the glossy blue, while a two-door variant will be available in addition to the four-door pictured above.
The Polar's interior features similar tweaks; Pearl White contrast stitching can be found on both the seats and steering wheel, while ceramic White bezels and other accents give a nice contrasting look to the cabin.
Underhood sits an engine that should make American Wrangler enthusiasts weep - a 2.8-liter, four-cylinder turbodiesel. With 200 horsepower and 339 pound-feet of torque channeled through a five-speed automatic transmission, the Wrangler Polar should handle itself just fine on normal roads. British buyers will also be able to select the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6. For rougher stuff, Dana axles can be found front and rear (Dana 30 up front and Dana 44 in back), while the Command-Trac four-wheel-drive system and its two-speed transfer case should be enough for when the roads disappear.
Ford F-Series Super Duty earns Truck of Texas award
Wed, Oct 12 2016Texans love their pickup trucks, which you already knew. That means the Texas Auto Writers Association and its "Truck of Texas" award is a big deal. And the latest trophy goes to the 2017 Ford F-Series Super Duty. The pickup truck managed to snag TAWA's award at the 2016 Texas Truck Rodeo. The award marks the 13th time Ford's F-Series has been named the pickup king of the Lone Star State. Roughly 70 journalists converged outside at the Longhorn River Ranch, just outside of Austin, TX, for the 23rd annual Texas Truck Rodeo where a host of Ford's vehicles won awards. In addition to the F-Series Super Duty being named the "Truck of Texas," the 2017 Ford Super Duty won the Heavy Duty Pickup Truck award, while the 2017 Ford F-150 with the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine won the Best Powertrain award. The journalists also awarded Ford for having the "Truck Line of Texas." Ford wasn't the only winner at the Texas Truck Rodeo, as Nissan brought home five awards, including one for the 2017 Titan in the fullsize pickup category and one for the Armada in the SUV segment. Ram also won a few accolades with its trucks. The 2017 Ram 1500 won for being the most luxurious pickup truck, while the 2017 Ram 2500 Power Wagon won the off-road pickup truck award. Last year, TAWA named the 2016 Nissan Titan XD the Truck of Texas, but Ford's all-new F-Series Super Duty managed to keep the Japanese automaker's full-size offering at bay. For the 2017 model, Ford placed aluminum body panels into the F-Series Super Duty's body, which not only shed weight, but also make the truck stronger. Scroll down to see the entire list of TAWA's winners from the 2016 Texas Truck Rodeo.
