Jeep: Wrangler Rubicion on 2040-cars
Staffordville, Connecticut, United States
This is a Connecticut Listing, Offered for sale is one of my pride and joys. I purchased this 06 Rubicon with 5K miles in 2006 from the original owner. 10 years later it is still completely stock and now has 69,345 miles. If you are new to Jeeps understand that this is the last year of the Rubicon Model with a inline 4.0 six cylinder motor. It is the last year of the TJ model overall and many consider it the last real jeep.You will consistently see Jeep Wranglers with the inline 4.0 on the road and being sold with over 250K miles with many that have been well maintained in the 350k range for total miles. If you do not understand the difference between a Rubicon and a Sahara, Sport or X, please look on line. It is not just the sticker on the hood. This is one of the rarest of colors with a rare automatic transmission and full doors. Proven to be one of the most desired Wranglers ever manufactured, this is a extremely clean, always garaged, well cared for daily driver. Though a New England Jeep it was washed religiously every time it was exposed to winter weather and it shows. This is a awesome Jeep. If I did not have a 06 Rubicon in a LJ version, I would never sell this Jeep. In these economic times I just cannot justify keeping both. When you get tired of looking at the rusty junk take a good look at this jeep. The Rubicon has just received a new factory fuel pump, new front tires, a alignment, a full emissions service and a fresh detail inside and out. It runs drives and goes down the road perfectly. The soft top is original to the jeep and has seen no winters and very little use overall. I installed a new set of OEM Tinted window curtains last year (my old set went on one of my sons jeep) and the zippers work perfectly. The top has had one small repair that would be hard to find if you didnt know what you were looking for. This Rubicon has a clean original rust free frame that has never been repaired in any way. This Rubicon still has all of the factory glass and the original one model year only Moab Wheels. It has had some paint work and the drivers side fender and rocker were professionally replaced. There was no suspension damage. This was not a roll over. It was professionally repaired with all OEM parts and has passed Connecticut DMV Inspection receiving a new title. Ive had a couple of questions about the repair. There is a picture of what the Rubicon looked like after the non licensed, uninsured non US citizen decided to pass me on the left while I was making a left turn. The second is what the jeep like looked like after the front fender and damaged body side skin were removed. The third is after repair with the jeep in primer prior to inspection. The new fender and body side skin are OEM and were purchased from a Chrysler Dealer. The original spot welds were drilled out and the new panel was attached in the factory location and welded in place. You would have to be a very experienced bodyman, that knew Wranglers, to pick up on the repair. 99.999% of the population would never know. As you can see from the pictures the accident was not a huge deal. I pushed the insurance company for the total lose because the adjuster convinced me that the frame was bent even though I drove the Jeep home after the accident with no issues at 70-75 down the highway. The adjuster was incorrect. Once we got the Jeep on the frame machine and measured it per factory specs it was determined that the body had shifted on the mounts and the frame was in fact straight. The insurance company paid me off for the value of the Jeep. (well above NADA)I purchased it back salvage. I repaired the Jeep and took it through the State of Connecticut Rebuilt Vehicle Inspection.The finish paint was applied in a commercial paint booth. I drove the jeep this past winter as my daily driver. The winter has passed. The weather is nice and my LJ is out of its winter hibernation.I have painfully decided to let my Orange Rubicon go in order to finance another project. The Rubicon has a clean Rebuilt Title and is ready for its new owner. I encourage any interested party to come and look at this Jeep in person. You will not be disappointed. Priced at market. Try to find another 2006 Orange Rubicon Automatic. I have a Hardtop and the factory Navigation package available but they will not be sold with the Jeep at the listed price. I will provide a OEM radio or a aftermarket radio with the Jeep, your choice. The rest of the premium sound system is intact including the factory sound bar, dash speakers and sub woofer. You can here the stereo while driving with the top down, even on the highway, loud and clear. Serious cash in hand parties only.The Jeep is to be paid for with certified funds before the title is transferred and it leaves my property. I would be happy to assist in arranging transportation or the loading your shippers truck after your purchase. I may also be willing to deliver, depending on the distance, for a fee. Sorry I will not quote shipping this vehicle all over the country. Unless you have a late model 50+hp 4x4 tractor with a loader, enclosed cab, factory remotes, with heat and ac I am not interested in a trade of any kind. Yes that means I am not interested in the car that your grandmother gave you. Sorry, I might be interested in your grandfathers late 60s American muscle, if it is a convertible. Ive had Jeeps since I was in school. That was a long time ago.I know them well.

Another crazy custom Jeep Wrangler spotted in Morocco
Sun, 03 Mar 2013What in the world is the vehicle you see above? Well, um... yeah. We have no idea. According to the video description from YouTube, however, it's a modified Jeep Wrangler, and it comes from the same person who created the equally insane side-by-side merged Wrangler you saw here.
We can clearly make out the Wrangler-shaped passenger compartment up top, but as for the other bits and pieces that make up this rather amazing machine, your guess is as good as ours. At the very least, it seems to us that the car's wheelbase has been given a significant stretch, and the grille may have come from an International LoneStar Harley-Davidson Special Edition semi truck.
What other components are sourced from the massive International hauler? No idea. We suggest you check out the video below and draw your own conclusions. Oh, and if you've got any other ideas, feel free to let us know in the Comments.
Marchionne defends FCA recalls, says Wrangler won't be all-aluminum
Fri, May 22 2015FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne recently received the 2015 Industry Leadership Award from the SAE Foundation. While speaking with the press after the event, the boss discussed his thoughts about some key issues regarding the company's future. One of the big regulatory issues facing FCA at the moment is the upcoming public hearing by the National Highway Traffic Safety into the automaker's handling of 20 recalls. Marchionne has no intention of testifying there, according to The Detroit News. The CEO also thinks that the government regulator is becoming much more aggressive in how it handles safety campaigns, but the Feds aren't necessarily doing a very good job of communicating that. "We need to work with the agency in a very cooperative and open way to make sure that we can meet their requirements for their new stance," he said, according to the newspaper. "We have no option but to comply with their requirements and we will. I have nothing to hide in this process. I just want clear rules." Marchionne also dropped the news that the company has changed its mind about making the next Jeep Wrangler totally from aluminum. "Because of the difference in cost, not just the new material but the actual assembly process, I think we can do almost as well without doing it all-aluminum," he said to The Detroit News. This seemingly opens the door for the model to remain in production in Toledo, OH, but only just a crack. Marchionne says that the new Wrangler would still use a large amount of aluminum, and there are "at least" two sites in contention for the assembly. The company doesn't have too long to make a decision because the model reportedly launches in 2017.
Daily Driver: 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited X Edition
Thu, Apr 9 2015Daily Driver videos are micro-reviews of vehicles in the Autoblog press fleet, reviewed by the staffers that drive them every day. Today's Daily Driver features the 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited X Edition, reviewed by Adam Morath. You can watch the video above or read a transcript below. Watch more Autoblog videos at /videos. VIDEO TRANSCRIPT Hi, I'm Adam Morath for Autoblog. Now, undoubtedly, one of the coolest things about this job is that you're in and out of so many different vehicles, but, I'll be honest, there are times where, if you're in very similar vehicles, they can start to run together a little bit. That's why I love getting into a car like this that just snaps you right out of it because it's so unique and so different from anything else on the market. Of course I'm talking about the Jeep Wrangler. I'm in a 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. This is the X Edition, which stands for X Games. Jeep is a big title sponsor of the 2015 Aspen X Games and you can see that all over this vehicle. You have white, glossy accent plastic in the interior; mountain graphics throughout the interior and exterior of the vehicle – a nod, obviously, to the winter sports and skiing that you would do out in Aspen. And then in keeping with that mountainous theme, you have an Alpine nine-stereo speaker system. I'll be honest, though, that some of it feels a little overdone to me. For instance, there's a power-bulge in the hood. Credit to Jeep: the vents are actually functional, but this is not the trim I would go for, just personally. It's one of those vehicles that people are always wondering, "I really like the look of it [and] I like the capability, but could I live with a Wrangler?" It's the same sort of question you'll get from people who are looking at a sports car, "could I actually live with this is my daily driver?" And I have to say, Jeep has come a long way – Wrangler, in particular, has come a long way – in terms of driving comfort. Of course, don't expect "Lexus quiet." You can probably hear it's a big noisy in the cabin. It's a bit of a bumpy ride. There are things about this vehicle that I could see being annoying in your day-to-day life. For instance, the door: it's essentially an external hinge on the door, but it doesn't stay open for you. So, if you're on any sort of a tilt, the door will come back in and you have to just prop it open with your leg. Little things like that.
