1978 Jeep Wagoneer, 401 V8, Factory Air, Auto, Cruise, Tilt, Factory tint, trailer tow package, crank windows. A really nice truck with zero mechanical issues, except gas gauge. The entire top half of truck from belt line up is original paint, below the stripe has been painted. I bought this truck from a Justin Rytel, 1420 SE Water Ave Portland, Oregon, hence this is an Oregon truck. If any of you fellow ebayer’s ever have the opportunity to deal with Mr. Rytel, don’t. He is a lying snake and almost everything he told me about this truck except for color was untrue. Anyway, after much repair, the truck is great. Runs like a brand new truck and looks great. Some not so good stuff; Someone did plastic repair on both lower rear quarters in the worse job ever but the good news is you can’t see it at all from the outside. The drivers rocker panel is starting to bubble, not bad but it’s there. The headliner is not good, needs replace. It’s up and intact but not at all attractive. As I mentioned the gas gauge does not work. Air works fine but is not really really cold. The good stuff; This truck runs, steers, stops, brand new. Plenty of power, all original interior in perfect shape. All glass perfect. Great unique piece, very yuppie cool. Call me anytime with any at all questions you may have, as I love to bullshit about old trucks. Billy 203 676-0890 For sale locally and I reserve the right to remove this listing at will. Yes there is a reserve and no I will not tell you what it is; this is an auction. $1000 deposit within 48 hours, balance within 5 days. Thanks for looking and good luck.

China orders Jeep to investigate Wrangler fire risk
Mon, 06 Jan 2014It's been some time since we've heard anything about fires related to the Jeep Wrangler (foreign or domestic), but it sounds like the go-anywhere SUV could be in hot water once again in China. Bloomberg is reporting that the Chinese government is ordering Jeep to investigate the matter and, in the meantime, also recommending Wrangler owners to not drive their vehicles in "extreme conditions" due to a "relatively high risk" of catching on fire.
There is no indication as to how many vehicles or which model years are affected, but the previous fire problems in both the US and China - which led to investigations but no recalls - were traced back to automatic transmission fluid leaks. The article, however, does not say what the potential problem is this time around as Jeep has not released a comment on the matter. The official notice, in Chinese, can be found here.
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.
2014 Jeep Cherokee marketing launches with 'Built Free' commercial
Mon, 28 Oct 2013Now that the 2014 Cherokee is finally on its way to dealerships, Jeep is starting its marketing blitz for its new crossover, beginning with this 60-second TV spot, called Built Free, that premieres today. Set to a Bob Dylan recording, the ad spot discusses something we can all relate to - the feeling of being too busy and too cooped up with everyday tasks to really get out there and explore the world. But as Jeep says in the commercial, "You're still here. And you're still you. The horizons haven't gone anywhere."
Autoblog spoke to Kim Adams-House, head of marketing for the Jeep brand, who explained that this Built Free spot is "an anthemic piece" that "sparks the conversation" for the new Cherokee. As you'll notice, none of the new Jeep's features - its off-road systems, nine-speed automatic transmission, etc. - are mentioned in the ad, but Adams-House says that future marketing "will speak to more" of the CUV's highlights. Following this 60-second spot, 30-second commercials will launch that talk about some of the specific product features.
When asked if the Built Free campaign will include any throwbacks to the original Cherokee, Adams-House told Autoblog that while "we love that vehicle," the new spots are intended to carve out "a unique space for Cherokee in our product portfolio and marketplace." On that same note, don't expect any other Jeep vehicles to get the Built Free treatment. Adams-House said that while this ad "does resonate overall with the brand," it is solely intended to promote the new Cherokee.
