You are looking at a very clean '06 Rubicon that has never been off road or abused. I looked long and hard to find this Jeep, i sorted through alot of junk to find this gem. I am the second owner. The original owner was an older gentleman so i was told. It is pretty much loaded with options, i added the compass/temperature mirror using factory Jeep parts. I think the only options it doesn't have are the add a trunk and the 6-disc radio. This Rubicon has a hard top only, there is NO soft top with it. It has all the usual Rubicon features that i'm sure you already know about. The body has some stone chips and light scratches, there is a dent in the hood that will likely come out with a good smack from the underside. I added new wetsuit material type seat covers to the front seats, new Husky liner floor liners in the front only, the door pads have some scratches on them. I have performed all necessary fluid changes to both axles, transmission, engine(of course) and antifreeze too. I had the cooling system flushed at the dealership. I replaced the transmission pan and the engine oil pan with brand new Chrysler parts as the original ones were rusty and i didn't like them. The tires are a couple of years old and are getting down, they should give another year or so of service. The spare tire is still new, same brand/model as the road tires are. The Jeep is currently licensed and driven daily in the good weather, because it is winter here right now it is parked for the winter. I had it sprayed with oil last fall. It runs excellent, lots of power, runs straight down the road. I added a 2" BB lift along with a new Tom Woods custom rear drive shaft and adjustable rear lower control arms. It also has had the turn signal switch replaced, a new OPDA, a new Delco battery, belt, new parking brake shoes and lubed up the parking brake linkages, new lift struts on the rear hatch and one O2 sensor. I replaced the transmission mount with a new factory replacement unit and i converted the transfer case shifter linkage over to a stand alone unit from the troublesome/noisey factory setup. It is noted on carfax that at some point someone tapped the left front wheel and that caused the wheel to tilt in a very small bit that no one noticed at the time it happened until i bought the Jeep, i noticed it, so i installed an offset balljoint in the top and the lower was worn out so it got replaced with a standard balljoint. The wheel is straight and true now, i only did the balljoint for cosmetic reasons, i'm a stickler for things looking proper. No function of the axle is affected, it runs totally proper and smooth. I am telling you this so there is no surprises. As far as i know everything on this Jeep works as it should.

The mileage listed above has been converted from kilometers, the kilometers on this Jeep right now read 96,898kms which converted to miles comes out to 60,209miles. This Jeep is in Ontario Canada and it does have daytime running lights. There should be no problem importing this Jeep back into the United States as it was built there. The shipping and shipping costs are totally up to the buyer, i can give you a vehicle transporter name/number that is local if you like.

I have described this 2006 Jeep Rubicon to the best of my abilty. It is being sold as is where is with no warranty written or implied. What you see in the pictures is exactly what you get. Please bid only if you can afford to buy this Jeep Rubicon. I don't want to waste my time or everyone elses. A $500 non refundable deposit must be paid via PayPal within 48 hours of the auction closing and i would prefer the rest of the selling amount to be paid within 7 days of the auction ending. If you have questions please ask me before you bid, thank you.

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee pricing leaks out

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

With our deep dive and auto show coverage of the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee revealed at the Detroit Auto Show, we brought you as much information as Chrysler would allow us to, but one thing we're still left in the dark about was the pricing. It would seem that Jeep Garage might have the answer for that. The Jeep enthusiast forum claims to have gotten its hands on the ordering and pricing breakdown for the updated Grand Cherokee, and while a Jeep representative has yet to get back to us as to the validity of the site's claim, these preliminary numbers look pretty kosher to us.
In base form, the two-wheel-drive Laredo will reportedly start at $28,795, which is a $1,100 increase over the 2013 model year, and the new Grand Cherokee Summit trim level starts at $47,995 for 4x2 models and $50,995 for the 4x4. Waiting for the new diesel engine? The torquey new 3.0-liter oil-burner will be a $4,500 option on Limited, Overland and Summit 4x4 models, but 4x2 pricing (and availability) are not known. As for the range-topping Grand Cherokee SRT (no longer called the SRT8), this added performance could run you an extra $2,700 with a new starting price of $62,995. More importantly, loaded to the gills with all available options, the 2014 Grand Cherokee SRT will top out at around $72,400 - or around $6,000 more than a fully loaded 2013 GC SRT8.
We'll let you know if the gang over at Jeep get back to us with any confirmation, but until then, head over to Jeep Garage to see the pricing details it has listed.

Consumer Reports digs Mazda3, disses Jeep Cherokee

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

Consumer Reports has just rendered its verdict on two of the more important cars to launch this year - the Mazda3 and the Jeep Cherokee. Considering the value a "Recommended" rating carries with the public and the viciously competitive markets these two cars compete in, Consumer Reports' view could have some impact on their initial success.
For Mazda, that's a good thing. CR spoke quite highly of the Zoom-Zoom brand's compact sedan and hatch, testing both models, and citing the excellent fuel economy and snickety-snack manual shifter as high points. Downsides to the 3 included a ride that is agile but "nervous," a bit too much noise and a cramped back seat. Still, the 3 was good enough to earn its place in the ranks of the "Recommended."
The Jeep didn't fare quite so well, with CR calling the polarizing CUV "half-baked." Although both engines were tested, the magazine called the 2.4-liter four-pot underpowered and its nine-speed automatic unrefined and unresponsive. That's particularly damning, considering the 9AT's role in future Chrysler products, including the extremely important 200. Overall, the Cherokee missed out on the coveted "Recommended" rating.

Radical 2016 Jeep Wrangler suggested by job listings?

Fri, 31 May 2013

With most inside the industry expecting the next-generation Jeep Wrangler to arrive for the 2016 model year, it makes sense that the automaker would be looking for some choice candidates to to fill program openings as the off-roader goes through its development. A recent ad on Chryslercareers.com suggests to some that the lightweight Wrangler Stitch Concept, revealed just two months ago and shown above, provides some clues about the off-road icon's next iteration.
According to Automotive News, the job descriptions - which don't name the model specifically - hint that the next-generation Wrangler will benefit from a serious diet. The ads appear to seek those familiar with advanced high-strength steels, hinting that lightweight aluminum body panels may appear on the 4x4. In addition, there are suggestions that Jeep may fit the Wrangler replacement with air suspension, as seen on the Ram and Grand Cherokee, to retain ample off-road clearance yet lower that chassis to improve aerodynamics at highway speeds. The job postings reportedly also lend credence to the idea of a diesel Wrangler.
It seems every bit of the next-generation Wrangler is up for review, as it will be the first time this iconic model is redesigned under Fiat ownership. Questions remain whether or not the Jeep will retain its clip-down hood, easy-to-remove door pins and folding front windshield - loyalists expect them, but fuel economy and safety standards may crimp their cases for survival.
