Today.. It pains me (literally) to offer this last year of a legend.. Jeep CJ7.... LAREDO!!  for you consideration.  I recently sold my classic Jeepster of 10+ years to buy this. 2 days after I bought it I learned I need to have another surgery.  I looked for a long time to find one this clean and in this color combination.  This one is incredibly rust free and has super low miles.. 57,000.   If you have been searching for a clean Laredo with low miles.. and priced to sell.. Here is the break you've been waiting for.  I see these going for giant $$ on here in this kind of condition.. and I paid real money, but I must price this to sell, not just for you to drool over. This is a 2 owner Jeep.  The original owner lived on a ranch and obviously treated it well.  The guy I bought it from owned it for about 3 years.. He had a new Ford Raptor truck, this was in the garage.. The new truck wasn't.   Please study the pictures carefully.  Understand that while I would definitely call it a cream puff.. It is not new.  It appears to be all original and in excellent condition.. but be realistic in your expectations, and understand that it is a 28 year old Jeep.  Ask any and all questions before bidding.  If possible, I encourage you to view it in person and can help accommodate you.  I can also take pictures of any part of the vehicle you want and text or email them to you.  Now onto some details.

Body and Paint:

It appears to be all original body panels and paint.  I see no evidence of any paint work or repair.  With the exception of the hood, which has faded, the paint looks incredible.  Still has lots of luster and is very pleasing to the eye.  Looking down the sides it is very straight.  It has very few door dings.  It does have a small dent on the forward side of each front fender.. very minor, and is visible in the pictures.  The rear of the vehicle is amazing.  Pretty close to new looking.  The interior floors have the original paint and it is still covering the metal very well.  The underside is just as pleasing.  There are light scraches in the paint from brush or trees that should polish out fine.. they may not show in the pictures and are not very noticeable in person.  The doors are in great shape, no cracks.  The top is in excellent shape too.  No rust on the bottom edge of the rear hatch... Doors open and close perfect.  Windows function perfect. It locks. No visible rust ANYWHERE!!

Interior:

I would say its in line with the exterior condition.. Original seat upholstery is perfect, original carpets are in such good shape its hard to believe.  So are the door panels, dash, console, gauges, and all of the weather stripping with the exception of the exterior door window rubber.  Wow!!!  Love that red/black contrast!!

Mechanically:

I didn't get a chance to drive it much.. about 20 miles.  It is the most impressive driving Jeep I have driven.  It is quiet, smooth.  It shifts through all 5 forward gears well and reverse. There are no obvious problems.. other than it seemed like it skated around a little bit.. I believe this is because it has 33x9.50 tires and the Jeep was likely never aligned after it was lifted..  The inside tread bar is noticeably worn.  I would recommend new tires and an alignment.  The tires are showing age too.  As mentioned, it was lifted at some point.  It appears to have been done well.  Has Bilstein shocks on all 4 corners.  Rides nice for a lifted Jeep.  Again, better than any ive driven... or ridden in.   The choke stays on till its up to temp, and thats a little annoying.  It hasn't leaked a drop my garage floor, but does appear that the valve cover gasket is leaking a little.  The previous owner supplied me with a new gasket.. and a new in the box Jeep valve cover.. I think its just a fancier one.  All electrics are working well with the exception of the tach.  I did spot a disconnected wire at the ignition coil, im thinking that might be the culprit.  It has a nice looking fuel tank, a hitch and a winch with the remote.  Just SWEET!

Summary:

A rare opportunity indeed.  The last year of a legendary vehicle in a great color and the top of line trim package.. Laredo!  A rust free survivor in excellent shape.  You won't be disappointed with this one.  It is priced to sell.. So bid now, watch for the reserve to be met.. Then bid to win!!  Ebay members with less than 5 feedback, please message me before bidding or I may choose to cancel your bid.. BE SERIOUS.. AND BE READY TO OWN THIS AMAZING CLASSIC CJ7 LAREDO.

Researchers who busted VW cheating say FCA's diesels dirty, too

Tue, Jun 13 2017

The Wall Street Journal today reported on an upcoming report from West Virginia University's Center for Alternative Fuels Engines and Emissions, which is the same lab that investigated Volkswagen emissions cheating. The report, which will be released in a matter of weeks, alleges that 2014 and 2015 model year Jeep and Ram vehicles with diesel engines emit excess pollution. But it does not specify whether the company used defeat devices. Since the report discusses Jeep Grand Cherokees, and that engine is also available in the Ram 1500, it's safe to assume that one of the implicated engines is the EcoDiesel V6, a unit actually produced by VM Motori. It's unclear whether the report covers any of the Cummins engines used in heavier-duty Ram pickups. This report comes on the heels of a federal investigation into FCA's diesel vehicles. That investigation focused on the EcoDiesel engine used in 2014-2016 vehicles. The feds were seeking a fine of up to $4.6 billion. The EPA and the State of California also previously accused FCA of using a defeat device on the same vehicles back in January. FCA, for its part, alleges that the WVU study might have been commissioned by people interested in suing the company, and disputes the testing methodology, according to the WSJ. We've reached out to WVU to confirm which engines are implicated in its study and will update this post when we have more to share. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Chrysler taking big risk snubbing NHTSA

Wed, 05 Jun 2013

Maker Insists Feds Overstate Risk Of Fires With Grand Cherokee, Liberty Models
It's not often that recall stories make it above the fold, in that old newspaper parlance, but when one shows up as the lead story on the network evening news programs, you know it's something big.
And so it is with Chrysler snubbing its nose at a request by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to recall 2.7 million Jeeps the feds insist are at risk of potentially catastrophic fuel tank fires in a rear-end collision.
