I have never seen an FJ Cherokee with so many options. What a nice vehicle. Has a valid State Inspection sticker. For those of you not familiar, Maryland does a one time inspection that checks everything from fluid leaks, brakes, and seat belts to alignment, tire tread, suspension parts and exhaust. The inspection is backed up by the state police (not jokesters) to discourage, and pretty much eliminate fraud. Although vehicle is being sold as-is with no warranty.


The mileage is mostly highway and the motor was rebuilt professionally (we have serviced this vehicle for many moons). The transmission was rebuilt less than 24,000 miles ago and the motor was taken out and rebuilt 68,000 miles ago. Differential services have been performed every 24,000 miles and the oil has been changed with Mobil clean 5w30 with a Lucas heavy duty stabilizer additive every 1 months (3,000 miles). Transmission is flushed every 18,000 miles, with OEM Approved Amalie Synthetic Transmission Fluid. Power steering, coolant, and brake fluid are replaced/flushed every start of summer and end of fall with the corresponding Lucas additive product (brake fluid is Dot 4). Throttle body and 3 Stage Fuel Air Induction Service is performed twice a year on this vehicle as well, as they are known for residue in all areas of the fuel rail/intake and throttle body areas eventually causing blockages. Every time a brake job has been one to this vehicle the calipers have recieved new hardware and slides. Has very nice quality Michelin tires with great tread. The color is that very striking lush forest green pearl. Interior has dark walnut burl look trim with very nice tan leather seating. Everything works. No oil leaks, no brake pulsations, no rough idle, this vehicle you can tell has been taken care of. Some may think that this maintenance schedule is unnecessary but, some may also not be able to drive vehicles with high mileage. 

The cons - All cosmetic and can be seen in photos; scrapes on driver side, paint is faded on top and hood/cowl area, front of driver front seat has wear.

Runs and drives great, these vehicles were built to last. There is a cult following with these vehicles and I understand it; they go anywhere you want them to, they are built to last and it has every comfort known to the luxury car owner. If you are looking at this vehicle then you know what these trucks are really worth and how RARE it is to have these options and this awesome color combo. Again the vehicle has passed, really passed (not a purchased faked sticker) we had to replace a washer fluid line because it was leaking, Maryland State Inspection and is ready to drive away.

2014 Jeep Cherokee: Introduction

Tue, 27 May 2014

When we look back at some of the more shocking product launches of recent yeras, the Jeep Cherokee is certainly high up on the list. And we aren't just talking about its off-the-wall, polarizing design.
For starters, it brought back the iconic Cherokee nameplate - something Jeep enthusiasts have coveted for ages. But beyond that, it brought a new evolution for the Jeep brand. After all, the Cherokee is car-based - using the same compact platform that underpins the Dodge Dart and Chrysler 200. It has a greater focus on technology and refinement than ever before, in an effort to appeal to a new crop of Jeep customers. And powering it all is a new (optional) V6 engine paired with an equally new nine-speed automatic transmission.
Can the Cherokee's car-based roots still allow for a vehicle that's superb when the going gets tough? Will its design still be a love/hate affair in one year's time, or will it start to blend in? Is the powertrain strong enough to not only support the needs of daily driving and road trips, but blaze a few trails as well? We're aiming to answer all these questions, and more, over the next 12 months. Welcome to the Autoblog long-term garage, Cherokee.

Chrysler recalls small number of 2013-2014 cars and trucks over engine debris

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

Chrysler is recalling a small number cars over issues with their 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines. The recall, which affects 522 examples of its 2013 Dodge Avenger and Chrysler 200 models, as well as 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot CUVs has to do with potential debris in the balance shaft bearings.
The abrasive stuff can cause the oil pressure to drop, which could lead to the engine stalling or outright failure. This situation could at best leave drivers stranded and at worst lead to a crash.
Chrysler will begin notifying owners, who will need to report in to have the balance shaft module replaced. All repairs are naturally free of charge. Scroll down for the bulletin from NHTSA.

Jeep Wrangler Copper Crawler is our idea of a restrained Mopar shopping spree

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

According to a recent report, the Jeep Wrangler is the most popular SUV for customization, and this is backed up by the fact that the iconic off-roader was just named the Hottest 4x4-SUV at SEMA for the fourth year in a row. Looking for ways to keep its customers in-house rather than going aftermarket, Jeep and Mopar are always teaming to offer exciting new parts and pieces for the JK Wrangler.
Compared to most other Wranglers on display at SEMA - as well as other Chrysler Mopar SEMA concepts - the Jeep Wrangler Copper Crawler is surprisingly reserved, but should be no less exciting for owners to give their Wrangler a distinctive look. Starting off with an eye-catching copper paint scheme, the Jeep then goes on a Mopar catalog shopping spree with its matte black grille, black beadlock wheels, two-inch lift, Rubicon bumper (with a winch and aero end caps up front) and rocker panel and taillight guards.
Jeep also upgraded the Wrangler's transfer case for low-speed rock crawling (hence the vehicle's name) and cold-air intake for extra measure.
