1966 Jeep Jeepster Commando 3.7l on 2040-cars
Fairhope, Alabama, United States
This a rare
American Classic which I am offering for sale. I bought the vehicle 6 years ago
and have used it moseying around the small town I live in on weekends. Here’s
what I know: I bought it from a guy who had it 5 years and kept it out of the
weather. Since I bought it I have replaced the clutch and some hoses—also kept
it under cover of a carport with a vehicle cover. The jeep fires up every time
and is very reliable in that regard—I only drive it around town—have never
ventured more than 15 miles from my home so I won’t vouch for any extended
distance driving. This Jeep is an amazing people magnet--a complete head turner
anywhere I drive. I’ve had it parked next to a gleaming red Ferrari and
nobody’s looking at the Italian job. Reason for selling---I had 5-6 years of
fun and now it’s someone else’s turn to enjoy. I am replacing this with a MUCH
MORE EXPENSIVE 1976 Toyota Landcruiser FJ 40---just another toy to drive around
town on weekends for a few years and then it’ll be on the block. I have never taken vehicle offroad and not sure 4WD even works. ONE MORE
THING—I have only bought one vehicle from afar—a Landcruiser shipped from
Connecticut to Alabama—I was referred to a guy that has phenomenal ratings and
he did everything I asked perfectly—if you need a shipper. |

Chrysler recalls small number of 2013-2014 cars and trucks over engine debris
Thu, 12 Dec 2013Chrysler is recalling a small number cars over issues with their 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines. The recall, which affects 522 examples of its 2013 Dodge Avenger and Chrysler 200 models, as well as 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot CUVs has to do with potential debris in the balance shaft bearings.
The abrasive stuff can cause the oil pressure to drop, which could lead to the engine stalling or outright failure. This situation could at best leave drivers stranded and at worst lead to a crash.
Chrysler will begin notifying owners, who will need to report in to have the balance shaft module replaced. All repairs are naturally free of charge. Scroll down for the bulletin from NHTSA.
Chrysler teases upcoming outlay of SEMA cars
Wed, 15 Oct 2014Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is hauling a multitude of modified models to the annual SEMA show in Las Vegas this November, and the company is releasing the first teasing sketches of many of them.
Unfortunately, FCA isn't giving many solid details on any of the concepts other than saying the vehicles from Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Ram and Fiat all benefit from tuning from its Mopar performance brand. The teaser photos include a sinister-looking Chrysler 200S, Fiat 500 Abarth with two-tone paint and a scorpion on the hood, a red and black 500L, seemingly two different takes on the Jeep Renegade, a green Dodge Challenger wearing the T/A badge, an orange and black Dart, a very neon Charger, just the outline of a red and black Viper, a Ram ProMaster in Mopar livery and a Ram pickup called the Outdoorsman.
Take a look through the gallery to see what you think of the sketches for these concepts, and scroll down for the full announcement from FCA.
2014 Jeep Compass/Patriot sing their swan songs with a six-speed automatic
Tue, 15 Jan 2013Unless the governor, Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne, gives them a reprieve, the 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot are expected to meet their makers sometime next year. Should they perish, it's a shame that it would happen just as they've shed the continuously variable transmission that was their major bugbear, and just as the Compass has gotten its best looks yet.
Both will roll with a proper six-speed automatic transmission, courtesy of PowerTech. Noise-resistant gears and tuning by Chrysler boffins should alleviate the unappealing sounds that were given off by the older CVT. Unless, that is, you choose to have either model equipped with Freedom Drive II; the serious off-road package, available on both baby Jeeps, will still come with the CVT. The base transmission on the entry-level Sport trim remains the five-speed manual.
Otherwise, it's minor changes for the Compass, set off by the new 18-inch wheel option, trim pieces around the car and a back-up camera. The Patriot gets seat-mounted airbags, but is carryover otherwise. With their expected demises perhaps a year away, not much has changed otherwise. Engine choices comprise the 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 158 horsepower and 141 pound-feet of torque or the 2.4-liter four-cylinder with 172 hp and 165 lb-ft.
