1999 Jeep Cherokee Sport 2 Door 218,640 Miles This is a no reserve auction. The highest bidder drives her away. For your consideration I present this loaded Jeep Cherokee in a very rare color with the one year only and one color only matching wheels (Only offered this way for 1999). The two-door is very seldom seen. And this Jeep Cherokee is equipped with the optional Select-Trac 4 wheel drive system, a full-time system that allows you to stay in four wheel on the open highway as well as to select part-time four wheel in both high and low range for full capability. Don’t let the mileage fool you this Jeep has had every system sorted. She is ready to roll and can be driven anywhere. I only offer cars on Ebay that I have owned and driven myself and I have a 100% positive feedback record. The Jeep has just about every option you could order on a two door Cherokee Sport back in 1999. Power windows and locks, cruise control, lighted vanity mirrors, even a full size spare tire is included. All the systems and electrical are working as they should. I have added a modern disc radio with blue-tooth and hands free phone capability for better entertainment and the original cassette radio is also included. I also put in a trail type seat that I hoped would be more comfortable than the original. It isn’t, and the original seat will come with the vehicle if you wish to switch it back. The car has never been off road during my ownership. I added a top quality tow bar receptacle to carry a bike rack in. The Jeep has never been used for towing. I purchased this vehicle 4 1/2 years ago for use by my daughter while attending college in Northern Maine. Much of the mileage was accumulated taking the long trip back and forth to there from western Connecticut. I kept all systems maintained meticulously so that Madge (my daughter named her) would be a safe and reliable ride throughout the Jeep’s life with us. The engine runs smooth and delivers all the power a 4 liter Jeep six should. The transmission shifts through all gears as it should and the 4 wheel drive engages smoothly and operates well in all its modes. There are no leaks or seepage from any of the seals and gaskets and the Jeep uses no oil between oil changes (done every 3,000 miles). The air conditioning blows ice cold and was recently serviced. A list of maintenance done is presented below. 4 new tires were put on at 215,217 miles. Things needing attention: Madge has lived a colorful life in New England and some of it shows. The underside of the vehicle has rust through in the passenger side floor and rust in the driver side floor as pictured. The sub-frame is not rusted and is in good condition and the underbody is otherwise sound. The floors will need to be fixed at some point but because the sub-frame goes right under them there is no danger of putting your feet through. The Jeep is solid and drive-able as is. The body is in good condition as pictured but this is a 15 year old used Jeep so there are nicks and scratches here and there. The passenger side drip rail molding was lost and replaced with an aftermarket type. It is not original and not the right color but it is presentable. I have not been able to find the original part but it is out there somewhere. The Jeep encountered a bear several years ago and the front grill, bumper and moldings had to be replaced. No structure damage occurred however. Maintenance List: New hatch struts and latch mechanism New Alternator New Distributer Cap, Plug Wires, Rotor, Spark Plugs New Rear Leaf Springs, Spring Shackles and Shock absorbers New Power Steering Pump and New Belts New Exhaust Manifold, New Exhaust Gasket and Connector Pipes New Harmonic Balancer New Sway Bar Bushings and Sway Bar Link Kit New Air Conditioning Compressor, New Air Conditioning Dryer New Brakes and All New Brake Lines New U Joints New Radiator and All Hoses New Transmission Cooler Lines New Left Front Hub and Bearing Assembly New Complete Exhaust System Four New Tires (Less than 5,000 miles on the tires) New Professionally Installed Windshield This is only a partial list of maintenance items done. The Jeep comes with a complete set of receipts for parts and labor done during the 4 1/2 years of my ownership. As stated all systems are functioning and Madge is ready to drive. This Jeep is located in Torrington, Connecticut and is to be picked up there. The buyer must make all arrangements for shipping if the car is to be shipped. If the winner wishes to fly in and drive the car home I can provide transportation from Bradley International Airport near Hartford, Connecticut or from other nearby airports upon request. As mentioned the car is ready to go and I would feel confident hopping in and driving to San Francisco tomorrow. Please feel free to ask any questions. Happy bidding.

2013 Jeep Wrangler Moab Edition
Wed, 11 Dec 2013There will forever be a soft spot in my heart for the Jeep Wrangler. The last one I owned was red, and, as a 1990 model, had the square headlights derided by Jeep enthusiasts who grew up on the Civilian Jeeps that descended from their General Purpose military ancestors. As a teenager, I couldn't have cared less what shape its headlights happened to be - to me, a Jeep Wrangler represented freedom; a carefree do-it-all machine equally at home with the top stowed away in the summer or with the heater on full blast in the snowy clutches of Old Man Winter. In Dr. Seuss parlance, my square-headlighted Sneetch was just as worthy as any round-headlighted Sneetch.
All that said, I'll be the first person to advise against buying a Jeep Wrangler of any sort for owners who don't plan to use it as its makers intend. There's no good reason to punish yourself with a stiff and springy ride, a loud and somewhat drafty (though generally water-resistant) interior or the poor fuel economy expected of a block-shaped vehicle if you don't enjoy its other, more exciting benefits.
Of course, Jeep has done its darndest over the years to make the Wrangler as civilized as possible while keeping it as capable as federal law will allow. The 2013 Jeep Wrangler Moab edition is one of Jeep's latest attempts to attract attention from the upper reaches of the active lifestyle set, and I spent a week with one to see what makes the Moab special.
Jeep Wrangler Polar is a tasty frozen treat
Wed, 11 Sep 2013Perhaps it's because we've seen so many kitted-out examples over the years, but it seems to us that the Jeep Wrangler tends to wear its special-edition duds better than most models. It might be the icon's familiar rectilinear proportions or the inherent bolt-on look of its extremities - bumpers, mirrors, lighting, and step rails - but we've seen precious few factory specials that look anything but excellent.
Case in point: this new Jeep Wrangler Polar unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show. This European-market limited-edition model is said to be a celebration of winter driving, which evidently works out to a body-color hardtop, black-accent seven-slot grille, 18-inch gloss black wheels, Trac-Lok limited-slip differential and a hard hat for the spare tire. Finished here in Hydro Blue (Billet Silver Metallic and Bright White are also available) and a black interior with Polar White accents, the Polar edition features badges displaying 78° S and 106° E longitude and latitude coordinates for Vostok, Antarctica.
This new Jeep will be available in both standard and Unlimited formats with either the 3.6-liter Pentastar gas engine or the still-not-for-US 2.8-liter turbodiesel when it bows early next year. For further details, check out our gallery above and the press release below.
Jeep gunning for 1M sales this year
Thu, 16 Jan 2014Jeep CEO Mike Manley would rather soft-pedal the seven-figure prognostication for now, but Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne won't have it, proclaiming in an interview that Jeep will sell one million units worldwide this year. Manley has called that come-hither number "a stretch," the history of recent gains perhaps reason for his caution: in 2011 the brand sold 568,317 units, followed by the record-breaking tally of 701,626, then another record in 2013 with 731,565 units moved.
That kind of gap means everything will need to go magically for Jeep to record a 37-percent increase this year - amazing Cherokee sales, a brilliant launch for the little Jeep arriving in Europe later this year and a heavy wave to raise sales in US, European and Chinese markets. Manley is confident about the prospects in 2015, though, with the Cherokee in full stride, the Fiat-based Jeep on its way to the US and expanded global production. It's not as though Marchionne's prediction for Jeep's 2014 sales is unexpected, since he first made it last year. But even if the number ends up a little short for 2014, there's no doubt it will be impressive.
