1978 Jeep CJ5 Four Wheel Drive in Excellent Condition.

65,000 miles.
I have over $3,500.00 of receipts from the last two years.
When I purchased it, the Jeep was leaking oil very badly 
from the rear main seal. My mechanic said the seal was
dried out from sitting for so long in the previous seller's 
garage. Once the oil leaking problem was solved, the Jeep
has been a pleasure to drive. My mechanic repainted the
oil pan (it looks perfect), but I told him not to paint the valve
cover because I wanted it to stay original. The underside
of the Jeep is beautiful, with only very tiny spots of rust in
minor places.
The armor-plating was installed before I owned it, and was 
not put on to hide any rust, but to reinforce the body and to
make it look cool. There is no rust underneath the armor-plating
and it can be removed very easily.
16 inch Eagle wheels with a spare off-road tire and Eagle wheel.
I unbolted the spare tire and carrier off of the back of the Jeep
to make it easier to access the tailgate.  It also comes with a
large, steel basket to carry coolers, etc. which gets inserted into
the trailer hitch sleeve.
It has a wonderful three speed, manual transmission that is geared
very nicely for driving. I have never had it on the beach, and the 
previous owner never took it on the beach either. It has always
been garaged. 
The soft top is not in good condition (the plastic windows have
yellowed and cracked, but the side doors are in excellent condition 
(see picture of doors).
It has a new gas tank, new hoses, brake lines and other small 
improvements.  
I just purchased a brand-new Best-Top bikini top for it, and it 
can be put on or removed in seconds. It fits very well, and 
does a great job of protection. I like it much more than the full soft top.
This is the first CJ5 I have ever owned, and despite the lift kit and
large tires, it rides much better than I expected. It is very original 
and has always been adult-owned.
Reserve price is under $5,000.00.
This Jeep is really fun to drive (I drive it to work almost everyday), 
and people love it wherever I take it.
Serious bidders can call me at: (631) 513-9508 with any questions.
The Jeep is for sale locally and is sold in "as-is" condition. 
I reserve to end the auction early, and bidders are encouraged to
inspect the Jeep before they bid on it.  The CJ5 is located in
East Hampton, New York.
Thank you.

Jeep’s latest special edition tries to give the all-American Wrangler European appeal

Tue, May 16 2017

Jeep has a long history in Europe, starting with GIs bouncing across the continent kicking Nazi ass and much later being a conspicuously American status symbol. It's been a varied existence, to be sure. And there have been a lot of Euro-only editions aimed at Continental tastes, like the Wrangler Polar and the Black Edition II. So this Mopar One Package version of the Wrangler Rubicon, which Jeep showed off at the Geneva show but was just showcased at the "Euro Festival" in Saint-Tropez, wasn't born in a vacuum. It really underlines the continuing appeal in Europe for stereotypically American things. "Euro Festival", after all, is a Harley-Davidson gathering. Harleys are expensive, conspicuous status symbols in Europe – and so is a Wrangler. The Mopar One Package is only available on the Rubicon, and is a little unusual in that it's more function-oriented than the normally cosmetic Euro packages. It has a 2-inch lift kit, larger 32-inch tires, a steering stabilizer, and accessory fenders. Jeep says this is the first time it's been able to offer factory-installed accessories in Europe, so now our friends over there can enjoy the highly addictive experience of ticking off boxes to customize a Wrangler. One thing the Euro Rubicon gets that we can't, which might make American Jeepers a little jealous, is the 2.8-liter CRD diesel engine. That's a VM Motori unit, similar to what was available over here in the Jeep Liberty for a hot minute. Euro Jeeps have used variants of this engine for years. If you want an off-road diesel comparable to the Euro Rubicon, you either have to move to the Euro Zone or buy a new Chevy Colorado ZR2 – which we just drove, by the way. No word on how much the Mopar One Package will set buyers back. It's likely that this is also just a beachhead for more factory customs from Mopar, not just in the Jeep world. It'll be interesting to see how Europe responds. Related Video: Aftermarket Jeep SUV Off-Road Vehicles

2014 Jeep Cherokee musters 22 MPG city, 31 highway

Thu, 05 Sep 2013

Production and media drive delays included, there has been no lack of press surrounding the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. With the most recent delay reportedly due to powertrain calibrations, we've been waiting to see how the Cherokee's fuel economy looks against the highly competitive compact CUV segment. Thanks to the EPA, we now know the fuel economy figures for the newest member of the Jeep family.
Arguably, the Cherokee has the most modern powertrain in its class with an updated base engine, all-new V6 and all-new nine-speed automatic transmission, but its fuel economy figures are simply on par for the segment. Still nothing to scoff at, though. According to fueleconomy.gov, front-wheel-drive Cherokee models with the base four-cylinder mill will top out the lineup with 22 miles per gallon in the city and 31 mpg on the highway; opting for four-wheel drive with this engine drops the figures to 21 city and 28 highway. Get even crazier with the option list, and the new 3.2-liter Pentastar V6 will get you 19 mpg city and 28 mpg highway in two-wheel-drive form or 19 city and 27 highway for 4WD.
If you're wondering how that stacks up among compact CUVs, head on over to Automobile Magazine for a full fuel economy breakdown for the segment. The controversially styled crossover hits dealers this month, and we'll be driving it in just a couple of weeks.
