For sale is a 1972 Jeepster Commando. No Reserve. For those out there who know this truck, you will appreciate the unmolested nature of this particular vehicle. It does not look pretty on the outside, but it will make a great platform for whatever you wish to do with it. You could beef it up (new springs, shackles, a lift kit, 35s, etc.) and it would make a great hunting truck--couple thousand into it would suffice; or you could turn it into a show truck with a new paint job and some chrome on the engine; or you could do what I have done--nothing--and drive it around like it is. The drive train is strong and it's a blast driving around in the summer with the top off. It has enough power to tow a boat, and operates well in mud and snow. Be ready for a lot of attention though. I can't drive it anywhere without someone asking me what it is. Defnitely a unique truck. Certainly, it needs a little love, but hell, it's 40yrs old!
I've installed some aftermarket gauges (temp, oil, volt). The speedometer works but the gas gauge does not. All the exterior lights work. There's a dent in the passenger door and just behind it (thus the primer to keep the rust away). It's originally from Montana and spent time in Washington State. I bought it ad shipped it to New York where I've put less than 2000 summer miles on it the last two years. If you're within a hundred miles of me, I'd drive it to meet you, otherwise it would be smart to ship since it gets about 13mpg. I haven't had any problems with it and I am only selling it finance some work on my Landcruiser.

Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango to lose color options temporarily
Wed, 19 Nov 2014In the market for a Jeep Grand Cherokee or Dodge Durango? Well, if you fancy a more expressive color for your new SUV, you'd better get your order in, or plan on waiting until well into 2015.
The SUVs will be limited to just four monochromatic shades - black, white, silver and gray - until at least February, thanks to an upgrade to the paint shop at the two vehicles' Jefferson North factory. For the Grand Cherokee, that means it's losing more than half its color palette while the Durango is dropping two-thirds of its color catalog.
The loss of colors is inconvenient, but the upgrade will have a slightly bigger effect on the overall supply of SUVs, as Chrysler will need to end its relentless build pace at the factory for a three-week shutdown starting on December 22. The good news for fans of the SUVs is that once the work is completed, we should see a gradual expansion of the color palettes for both the Durango and Grand Cherokee, beyond even what's offered now.
100,000 Jeep Cherokee models subject to further 9-speed recalibration
Thu, 29 May 2014It seems that the software problems with the nine-speed automatic gearbox in the Jeep Cherokee continue to mount. The programming already caused multiple development delays and even postponed the Cherokee's market launch by roughly two months. Now, Jeep has issued another recalibration to hopefully assuage unhappy drivers.
According to Automotive News, this reflash for the allegedly jerky transmission covers over 100,000 Cherokees built before May 5, but it's not technically a recall. If owners are having problems and complain to the dealer, they get the new software. Otherwise, they continue with the current version. New vehicles on dealer lots also receive the latest revision to the programming. It takes only around five minutes to install, but technicians need to take the Cherokee on a test drive to adapt the gearbox to the changes.
The Cherokee's transmission software has been problematic practically since the beginning. The Jeep plant in Toledo, OH, briefly idled its second-shift workers last year to take care of the issue. Since the launch issues for the crossover, demand has been strong. Jeep added another 1,000 temporary workers to the Toledo factory to keep up, and sales were on par with the Wrangler in just its first two months.
Jeep does Renegade Chinese-style with Zi You Xia design concept
Sat, 19 Apr 2014As we mentioned, Jeep is bringing a quartet of concepts to the Beijing Motor Show this year. Its largest model, the Grand Cherokee, is nowhere to be found, but its smallest is. That, of course, would be the new Renegade, which has been done up as the Zi You Xia design concept.
Taking its name from the Mandarin word (or words) for "rebel," the Zi You Xia takes its inspiration from the National Centre for the Performing Arts in Beijing, with a Warm Chocolate Gray paintjob with contrasting dark bronze trim. The roof, grille and mirror caps are color-keyed to match the rest of the exterior, riding on 20-inch alloys in the same dark bronze finish.
Inside it's all Piano Black, Anodized Copper and brown leather with plaid fabric inserts. Scope it out in the high-res image gallery above and the press release below.
