Thanks for interest in my 1986 Grand Wagoneer.  This is a solid Jeep- ready to go. Currently inspected in NJ- good until  2014. The Grand Wagoneer runs & shifts well, 4x4 works- has no serious mechanical problems.  Frame is solid- no damage at the fuel tank as is common- has a more recent fuel tank holder (see picture).  What you will be purchasing is a good solid Jeep- get you were you need to go and through snow with ease. Not a perfect show piece but solid and reliable.  Jeep still looks good- has the nice options- wind-deflectors on windows and the rear wind spoiler. Has the usual misc. problems typical with these Jeeps.  Is rusted under the floors in back seat area- could be repaired or just drive as it is. Body has only a small amount of visible rust- really nice looking over-all for a 26 year old Jeep (Can be registered as a classic at this point).  Not all power locks work every time, rear window stick going up but works. Cruise not working.  Nuetral switch quirky- sometimes have to start in nuetral- and simple repair to replace the switch though. Has a leak in the AC hose- I will include the needed hose for the repair.  Interior lights not quite right. I am sure you will find some other minor issues but over-all this is a very usable Jeep at a great price.  Yes I could fix all the little problems but then the price of Jeep would be higher- so you get a great price and you put a little elbow grease into it and it gets even better. All power windows working. This is one I have been driving for about 6 months.  If you check my e-bay store you will see I specialize in Wagoneers and know them well. There are a lot of junky Jeeps out there.  This is not one of them.  You will be able to get in and drive- no big surprises.  I have already rebuilt the carb (I have 30 years experience working for Jeep dealers). Starts up cold and goes. New plugs, some exhaust work done, new rear axle bearing, valve cover gasket, and some other recent upgrades. Jeep had a sunroof which leaked and did not work- so I removed it and installed the correct headliner and replaced the roof panel.  Not  really not noticeable unless you are above the Jeep- (see picture). I aso have many Wagoneer parts  in my e-bay store and can help with your future needs. I will also give buyer a $200 credit toward items in my ebay store if closing auction price is above $2800.  I can also service your Jeep for you if you need future repairs as I have a auto repair business and still service the Grand Wagoneers.  I have done work here locally for  east coast customers of Wagonmaster of Texas- I do know these vehicles well.   I own, drive, and love Grand Wagoneers so we can swap stories!!  Check out the pictures.   Has some agresive tires- great for snow- still have some life (do make a little noise going down road with the heavy tread).   Inside is decent-seats not ripped up- had a new carpet installed in cargo area. Nice plus is it has a modern CD player which works. If you do not want to spend a lot of money and want a dependable Grand Wagoneer that still will get some attrention- this is it.

  You are welcome to test drive before bidding. You can call me at 609 610 7238 to set that up. Vehicle is located in Hamilton (Near Trenton) NJ- 08610. One mile from exit 62 off I295- easy to find.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:

GMC boss wants a Jeep Wrangler rival

Wed, 12 Nov 2014

Challengers come and challengers go, but the Jeep Wrangler continues to push forward even after vehicles like the Toyota FJ Cruiser and the entire Hummer brand have been shut down. Now GMC reportedly wants to take a stab at the quintessential Jeep, as well.
The news comes directly from Buick-GMC vice president Duncan Aldred, speaking with our compatriots over at Edmunds. Although Aldred said there are no plans currently on the table to expand GMC's lineup beyond the current range, "there is plenty of room everywhere in the hierarchy."
That could include a rival to the Wrangler, as well as a flagship luxury SUV positioned above the current Yukon Denali (pictured above). Just when (or for that matter, if) such models might come into fruition remains a big question mark, but it's certainly interesting to see what GM's dedicated truck brand has on the drawing board.

Chrysler's Jefferson North plant builds 5-millionth SUV [w/video]

Thu, 15 Aug 2013

Chrysler's Jefferson North Assembly Plant opened in 1992 for production of the first Jeep Grand Cherokee, but in the subsequent years, the Detroit plant has gone on to produce some of the company's biggest SUVs including the Jeep Commander and Dodge Durango. Earlier this week, the plant produced its five-millionth SUV, which, fittingly, was a Grand Cherokee.
Celebrating the plant's five-millionth unit, the silver 2014 Grand Cherokee was promptly donated to the USO. In addition to this milestone SUV, Chrysler also had a near-perfect 1993-95 ZJ Grand Cherokee on hand for the photo op. Scroll down for the Chrysler press release as well as a video showing some of the speeches from the celebration.
