Only 12,000 miles or so since the new Hemi engine was installed. 35,000 total miles. The Hemi is a Dodge Truck Hemi with VVT (variable valve timing), delivering 40 horsepower more than the standard HEMIs in regular conversions. With the aftermarket highflow exhaust, this HEMI generates around 400 horsepower! It is also a VVT HEMI, which means that four cylinders shut off on the freeway to conserve fuel. It was a top ten engine in 2009! Had zero miles on the HEMI when it was installed. The transmission is automatic and had 15,000 miles on it when I installed it. The swap was done by certified mechanics at TUNEX in Bountiful, Utah, and they are all Jeep enthusiasts and enjoyed doing the swap and would be happy to answer any questions about the swap. (Tunex Bountiful: Rob Ingram: ph. (801) 295-5551. This Jeep has MANY extras, including 4" lift with long-arms, 4.88 gears, custom rear bumper and tire mount and jack, custom front bumper and Smittybuilt Winch (8 ton) with remote, in addition to Black, 20" rims and 12.5" wide, 35" high all terrain mud tires in nearly new condition. No stains or tears in the seats. AC super cold. CD player works great. Premier sound system with seven speakers, including a large sub-woofer in the rear area. Extra fan installed in the engine to keep it all cool enough for idling and slow climbing.
The sound of this engine is AWESOME...it makes a throaty growl and gets a lot of compliments. Hard top just installed and is brand new. I will throw in the soft top as well.
The title is restored...I purchased this from Ed Smart, yes, Elizabeth Smart's father, two years ago. He said he was taking it off road and said his differential hit a bolder and it deployed the passenger airbag...his friend worked at a local dealership and replaced the airbag completely, but the title had to reflect "RESTORED" since the airbag deployed. Runs perfect and has been checked out by mechanics and is tip-top shape!
I am selling this because my daughter is going to be driving soon and we don't have room for the car we are going to get her. I already have a car and my wife has one and we are running out of room to park cars!!! And we won't let her drive this Jeep for obvious reasons!!! :)

Chrysler axes old V6s, goes all-Pentastar
Tue, 03 Sep 2013Old technology has a way of lingering on, particularly at Chrysler headquarters in Auburn Hills. So while the Pentastar V6 has replaced the older engine architecture in just about every application, it still soldiered on in some export markets. But the introduction of a new 3.0-liter Pentastar V6, produced in Michigan and meant only for the Chinese market, has put the final nail in the old engine's coffin.
Fitted into the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Jeep Wrangler just introduced to China at the Chengdu Motor Show, the downsized six uses the same architecture as the larger 3.6-liter Pentastar V6. But because of its 2,997cc capacity, it can be exported to China without the increased duty the 3.6-liter or even 3.2-liter Pentastar engines would incur. The 3.0-liter V6 develops 230 horsepower at 6,350 rpm and 210 pound-feet at 4,400 rpm.
Admittedly, it's unlikely, but even though the engine was said to be created solely to undercut tax thresholds in China and Europe, the 3.0-liter Pentastar has recently surfaced in rumors of an application here: as the boosted heart of a potential Cherokee SRT with anywhere from 375 to 410 hp.
Watch this R/C Jeep Wrangler plow snow
Mon, 06 Jan 2014There's no denying the fact that the Jeep Wrangler is one tough and rugged vehicle, and there is apparently little lost when the SUV is shrunk down for a 1:10th scale radio-controlled version. Proving that the Axial SCX10 Jeep Wrangler is not your run-of-the-mill R/C car, YouTube user Andrew Dykiel posted a pair of videos showing it clear about an inch of snow from his sidewalk and driveway during a snow storm last month.
Starting at $379.99, the Axial SCX10 costs more than most budget snowblowers, but other than paying a neighbor kid to shovel your snow, this might be the best way for a car guy to clear snow without the need for hot chocolate and ibuprofen. Better yet, it's electric, so it's zero-emission answer to snow removal! Scroll down to see how this R/C Jeep can help "shovel" snow from the warmth of your sofa. We've also thrown in a bonus video showing the mini Jeep negotiating the Rubicon Trail.
Jeep team takes a field trip to Wagonmaster; researching next Grand Wagoneer?
Fri, 01 Feb 2013
They have the very best intentions of rolling out a seven-passenger vehicle.
Wagonmaster has made a name for itself restoring and selling factory-perfect Jeep Grand Wagoneer models, bridging the gap between when the last production machine rolled off the line in 1991 and present day. The company's efforts haven't gone unnoticed. The entire Jeep product planning team took a little field trip to the company's facility in Kerrville, Texas back in December, and they weren't just there to take in the sights. According to owner Leon Miller's son, Chip Miller, the Jeep team was there to do research for the successor to the Grand Wagoneer throne.
