Sneads Ferry, North Carolina, United States

I've had this jeep for just over 2 years and have put 17K miles on it. Unfortunately I have used it more for commuting to and from work then on the trail.  I probably got it on some beginner trails in western VA 3 or 4 times total since buying it. It is very capable to say the least. Of course one of the few times I got it on the trail, it was raining and the trees were drooping over the trail and scratched up the fenders. Luckily its all superficial and they can be re-painted. I am selling it because I have a deployment coming up in a few months and I am planning on buying a 4 door jeep or truck when I get back next year...another baby on the way! Below are some details on the modifications on the jeep but Ill say overall it drives great with the much desired reliable inline 6 engine, gets looks and comments everywhere I go, blows ice cold ac, and the 4 wheel drive works great, no issues.

JUST REPLACED OLD CURRIE STEERING SYSTEM WITH BRAND NEW CURRIE/JKS HEAVY DUTY STEERING SYSTEM.

This is a jeep and was used as such, i.e. minor wear and tear on the exterior, interior looks very good. Never abused, kept clean and used only synthetics for the fluids. Rock sliders will need to be sanded down and repainted soon (starting to accumulate rust on the bottom of the sliders). No rust anywhere else on the Jeep!
Drives straight and will do 75mph no problem. Spare tire will be reinstalled for buyer, I run around town with out it. 

I am selling locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early.

Let me know if you have questions.

Jeep Wrangler Mojo and Cherokee Dakar teased ahead of Moab Easter Safari

Wed, 02 Apr 2014

Jeep has an annual tradition of debuting wild, new concepts during its Easter Jeep Safari, and this year looks to be no different. The automaker has already confirmed two of the six vehicles for 2014 - the Cherokee Dakar (pictured above) and Wrangler Mojo. This year's event runs in Moab, Utah, from April 12-20.
There are no official details about either of the concepts yet - Jeep will release more info on the new models next week. Judging by the pictures, though, the Cherokee Dakar appears to be lifted with some knobby off-road tires. The Wrangler Mojo looks to have a bulging hood that might hide a more powerful engine underneath.
Past vehicles at the Easter Jeep Safari have included a Hemi V8-powered Wrangler, a classically inspired pickup and modernized Jeep Forward Control. Since this is the brand's chance to express itself every year, hopefully it has some more sensational concepts up its sleeve. Scroll down to read the little information that has been revealed about this year's models so far.

Chrysler expecting up to 200,000 9-speed transmissions for 3 models this year

Tue, 22 Jan 2013

Striving for improved fuel economy, we already knew that Chrysler will begin using a nine-speed automatic transmission in some of its new products this year, but what we haven't known is that volume at which this gearbox will be used. According to Bloomberg, Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has been quoted as saying that the automaker expects to sell close to 200,000 units equipped with this new transmission in 2013. Those gear-rich trannies will be spread out across three models, consisting of the redesigned Chrysler 200, the still-unnamed Jeep Liberty replacement and the Dodge Dart.
This transmission should play a pivotal role in making Chrysler vehicles more competitive in their respective segments. Just for comparison, one of the Dart's key competitors, the Toyota Corolla, still uses a four-speed automatic, and a previous report indicates that the next-generation 200 could get up to 38 miles per gallon on the highway, which is better than most non-hybrid midsize sedans on the market. Marchionne says that the new Jeep model is expected during the second quarter of this year, but there is no word as to when the new 200 or nine-speed Dart will debut, but clearly Dodge would like to have the transmission in its compact yesterday. As for that volume figure, it definitely doesn't seem out of reach since the Dart, Liberty and 200 combined for a total of more than 225,000 units in 2012.
How many more gears can we expect in future cars? Probably not many more, since the CEO of transmission-builder ZF, Stefan Sommer, previously stated that nine speeds was the "natural limit" for transmissions.
