This Jeep CJ 5 is in great running condition. The body has no rust at all. It's been stored inside, always. The paint his black on black. There is a few runs on the paint, but not a big deal. I've recently put a rebuilt carb on it, the old one was bleeding out fuel. I put a brand new radiator on it. It has a new fuel pump, fuel filter, plugs, wipers and a brand new muffler. This thing is fun and has been taken care of. My son has been driving it to school, but we recently got him a car, so we have to get rid of some toys/vehicles. There is a Skyjacker lift on it, along with 33 inch oversized tires. The tires are in good shape, the rims are, to me, in great shape and they look nice. It comes with 2 half doors, 2 full doors, a bikini top, and a tow bar. I haven't had time to fabricate the tow bar to the jeep yet. There are heavy duty seat belts, as you can see in the pics, we didn't use the shoulder ones much, we used the ones around your waist. The flooring has been sprayed, like the back of a pickup truck, to keep rust away. There is a dent in the front by the driver's side, you can see it in the pic, to me it's not a big deal. There is extra parts that will come with it and they all work, such as the other carb, fuel pump, fuel filter and anything else I got laying around that belongs to it. My son and I consider this an oversized 4 wheeler, but you can take it anywhere. We've driven it from Rockford, Il. to the St. Louis, Mo. area last summer. My reserve price is less than what I recently paid for a used Honda 4 wheeler. We love this Jeep, but it's just not being used enough anymore. If you have any questions, just ask, thanks, Rich.

Chrysler recalling 644k more Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs over brakes

Wed, 02 Apr 2014

Early last month, we reported on Chrysler issuing a preemptive, proactive recall for about 25,000 units of the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango. The issue revolved around a brake system that wasn't causing any actual problems, but delivered an unsatisfactory brake feel, so Auburn Hills called in a good 25,000 of SUVs around the world, including 18,700 in the United States.
Now Chrysler, having apparently determined that the brake problem on its sport utes is actually much bigger than it initially realized, has drastically broadened the scope of the recall. As a result, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for precisely 655,354 examples of the Grand Cherokee and Durango, covering the 2011 through 2014 model years. In addition, Chrysler is recalling 42,380 units in Canada, 21,376 in Mexico and 159,685 overseas.
The problem which Chrysler found revolves around the brake booster, whose center shell has been found to be subject to corrosion, allowing water to get into the brake system. That water in turn could freeze, preventing the brakes from working as well as expected.

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:

Millionth Jeep Wrangler JK to roll off line this morning

Fri, 17 May 2013

According to a report on the Chrysler Communications Facebook page and one fairly grainy image of the production line, at around 11:00AM Eastern this morning, the one-millionth Jeep Wrangler JK will roll out of the company's Toledo assembly plant.
The third-generation or "JK" Jeep Wrangler has been around since the 2007 model year, and has obviously been more popular than ever. With a greater than ever number of trim levels, two-door and four-door Unlimited models and hardy off-roading Rubicon packages, the JK offers more to choose from than ever for those looking for something in a traditional Jeep. In fact, with the modern 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 powering it, the 2012 model year saw more than 140k Wrangers sold here in the US; the best-ever figure for the model.
With a model refresh due out for the Wrangler in 2015 (along with the likely addition of a diesel engine option), we expect that sales will continue to roll right along, too.
