1998 Jeep Cherokee (XJ)
If you are looking for a stock Jeep as a daily driver or a luxury SUV, go on to another ad right now. This XJ is meant for someone who wants to have some fun off-road but still be able to park it on a public street. One neighbor's kid calls it "muddy truck" and his parents call it "that thing" if that tells you anything about her. I'm pretty sure the roof is the only body panel which isn't dented (if you'd like, I can change that for the winning bidder). The front and rear wheel wells have been trimmed to accommodate the 33s. She has a 9,000lb winch to pull lesser rigs from peril and four 130w lights on the roof rack to illuminate the tears in the eyes of Hummer drivers while they are being winched out by a 15 year old truck. You should buy this XJ. She has taken me to some fun places and it's nice to have a rig you can beat on and have it come running back to you like your name is Chris Brown. So, despite the fact that she bleeds awesome, smells like fear and protein and will claw the face of it's enemy's like an off-strip Vegas hooker, I am now selling this she-beast to someone who will love her.
The good: This thing goes anywhere. Motor runs well, transmission shifts without issues and 4wd engages with no problems. Recent work includes basic tune-up (distributor cap, rotor, plugs and wires), complete fluids (oil, trans, power steering and brake fluid), new steering box and lines with JCR steering box spacer, new starter, rebuilt rear springs (removed the lift block and replaced the factory u-bolts and the centering dowels), rear brake shoes replaced. Power locks and windows all work. Every bolt I've replaced has been replaced with a grade 8, equivalent or better. Current VA safety inspection - 100% street legal. The bad: LCA bushings need to be replaced ($25 in parts and a couple of hours of labor) and the driver's door sags. It drives just fine but it makes a bit of a racket sometimes due to the worn bushings - mainly on hard, low speed turns. It doesn't bother me but you'll have to decide for yourself. The exterior: This thing is incredible. It looks like you just drove it out of Bartertown on your way to battle the zombie horde. If you don't think she looks awesome, I would recommend checking out a nice CPO Honda Pilot and might want to move on right now. Condition is 10/10 if you're awesome. 1/10 if you think clear coat and straight panels are important. The interior: My neighbor's kid calls her "muddy truck" for a reason. The interior isn't fantastic. I removed the carpet from the cargo area which helps to clean up better when you need to put your wet tow strap away after pulling a Rubicon from a creek bed (true story). Driver's seat has some tears in the normal spot along the side. Some of the trim is cracked. Everything works but looks a little rough. Condition is 5/10 if you're awesome. 1/10 if you plan on wearing anything other than work clothes in the rig. (This is a Jeep, work clothes means Dickies not Brooks Brothers.) Right now you're probably asking why I would sell such a kick-ass rig. Well, I have four Jeeps. Not my family, me. Four is too many Jeeps and this is the one my wife doesn't like riding in. She says people stare at us and not in a good way. I try to tell her they are just jealous but she has a hard time hearing me over the crunching sound Prius' make while I drive through them. Needless to say, I like her company and would like her to ride with me because she's funny and she smells nice.
Truck is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early if a local buyer is found. |

Tue, 10 Dec 2013The 2014 North American International Auto Show is right around the corner, which means it's high time we found out which cars and trucks would be finalists for the prestigious North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards.
The finalists - three in cars and three in three trucks/utilities - are dominated by American brands, with two-thirds of the finalists hailing from either General Motors or Chrysler (don't worry Ford, there's always next year), while outliers from Mazda and Acura can be found in each contest. Here now is the list of finalists for the big prizes:
2014 North American Car of the Year:
Jeep launches new ad with unreleased Michael Jackson track
Fri, 09 May 2014We've recently heard much about how Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne plans to pump up the volume on Jeep sales, inaugurating new models and global dealerships. But that's the stuff outlined in five-year plans; right now, advertising and special editions are at the fore, and the late Michael Jackson, too. Jeep has begun airing two commercials to push its Altitude Editions, Call of Summer and Lovers of the Game, that feature the song "Love Never Felt So Good" from Jackson's upcoming album of new music.
A little more star power - and timely, too - comes from Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Kyrie Irving. While Call of Summer features a few short shots of the former Rookie of the Year and two-time NBA All-Star, Lovers of the Game is all about his white Wrangler Altitude Edition and wrangling shots. You can watch both spots below, and if you want to hear the rest of the music track before the album hits, you can download it from iTunes.
NHTSA closes investigation into Jeep Liberty fires
Sun, 16 Mar 2014The investigation that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened into the Jeep Liberty in October 2013 has been closed. NHTSA received two (!) complaints about fires starting in the driver's door, thought to be caused by the master power window switch. The initial estimate was that 80,000 Libertys could be roped into a possible recall, but according to a report in the Detroit News the agency examined records for 425,000 Chrysler products that used the same window switch, including the Dodge Nitro and Chrysler Town & Country minivan.
After canvassing 265 warranty claims related to the master switches, NHTSA concluded that the rate of fires compared to the "large population of vehicles" was rather low, and that there was no trend pattern behind the few issues it did find. Perhaps with that, and the closure of the trailer hitch investigation, the Liberty can finally rest in peace.
