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. |

YouTube tallies votes for this year's top five Super Bowl spots [w/video]
Tue, 19 Feb 2013When we asked you to tell us which of this year's 16 car-themed Super Bowl commercials you liked best, you chose the Farmer commercial from Chrysler Group, advertising the Ram trucks, over Audi's Prom commercial in second place. Turns out the voters in YouTube's Ad Blitz poll agreed, voting the same commercial to the number one spot from among the field commercials in every category.
From there, however, they went in a totally different direction. Budweiser's The Clydesdales spot came second, Samsung's The Next Big Thing took third. The Jeep Whole Again ad scored fourth in the YouTube poll, fifth in our poll of auto commercials, and the Hyundai Team spot got fifth from the YouTubers, but ninth in our poll.
The voting results don't match up with the viewing numbers, though - while Farmer has more than 13 million views, The Next Big Thing is well beyond 21 million. You can read the press release below and see all five spots, lined up for you, one more time.
Chrysler recalling 630k Jeep models worldwide
Thu, 06 Jun 2013Despite its refusal to recall 2.7 million Jeep Grand Cherokee and Liberty models this week over a gas tank fire risk, Chrysler will be recalling 630,000 Jeep Compass (pictured), Patriot and Wrangler vehicles around the globe for a pair of entirely different reasons.
The affected Compass and Patriot models are all from the 2010 to 2012 model years - 254,000 in the United States, 45,400 in Canada and 109,000 elsewhere in the world. In these models, a software error may result in the late deployment of the side airbags and seatbelt tensioners. In the event of a crash, failure of these systems could result in more serious injuries for the vehicle's occupants.
Jeep's go-anywhere Wrangler also faces a separate recall due to power steering fluid lines that can possibly wear a hole in the transmission oil cooler line. According to Chrysler, the vehicles could then leak fluid, possibly damaging the transmissions. Roughly 221,100 Wrangler models are being recalled because of this issue, all of which are fitted with Jeep's 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine. In the US, 181,000 vehicles are affected, with an additional 18,400 in Canada and 21,700 additional units worldwide. A Chrysler spokesperson said that no crashes or injuries have been reported with either case, according to the Associated Press.
Chrysler expecting up to 200,000 9-speed transmissions for 3 models this year
Tue, 22 Jan 2013Striving for improved fuel economy, we already knew that Chrysler will begin using a nine-speed automatic transmission in some of its new products this year, but what we haven't known is that volume at which this gearbox will be used. According to Bloomberg, Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has been quoted as saying that the automaker expects to sell close to 200,000 units equipped with this new transmission in 2013. Those gear-rich trannies will be spread out across three models, consisting of the redesigned Chrysler 200, the still-unnamed Jeep Liberty replacement and the Dodge Dart.
This transmission should play a pivotal role in making Chrysler vehicles more competitive in their respective segments. Just for comparison, one of the Dart's key competitors, the Toyota Corolla, still uses a four-speed automatic, and a previous report indicates that the next-generation 200 could get up to 38 miles per gallon on the highway, which is better than most non-hybrid midsize sedans on the market. Marchionne says that the new Jeep model is expected during the second quarter of this year, but there is no word as to when the new 200 or nine-speed Dart will debut, but clearly Dodge would like to have the transmission in its compact yesterday. As for that volume figure, it definitely doesn't seem out of reach since the Dart, Liberty and 200 combined for a total of more than 225,000 units in 2012.
How many more gears can we expect in future cars? Probably not many more, since the CEO of transmission-builder ZF, Stefan Sommer, previously stated that nine speeds was the "natural limit" for transmissions.
