Up for auction is our 1988 Jeep Comanche 2WD short bed truck.  Being the 3rd owners, we have owned this truck for 15 1/2 years. In fact, the truck's ownership has never lived more than 45 miles away from the dealership in Kokomo, Indiana where it was sold new.  With 172,393 miles, it has been used as a truck.  To my knowledge it has never been wrecked, and the 4 cyl engine is its original power plant.  The clear coat and paint is faded.

The wheels and tires that are on the truck are from a newer CJ series Jeep and have been on the truck for over 2 years.   Even though I'm very attached to the truck, we are needing to thin out the number of vehicles we have due to the lack of inside storage.

The truck also has its original wheels (rusty), a bed topper, a spare wheel and tire in very good shape, 2 additional tail gates plus an extra muffler, catalytic converter, tail pipe and outside bed panels from an '89 Comanche  parts truck.  (Both sets of wheels are included)  The 4 cyl engine runs fairly well although the clutch is showing its wear.  The seat needs some work and there is several rust places; however, the inside of the bed is rust free.  The pigtail for trailer lights is fairly new.  The original owner's manual is included.

This is an "as-is, where-is" sale, and the buyer is responsible for all arrangements to transport the truck.  There is ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY, written or implied, and it comes with an open, up-to-date Indiana title.  Please note:  I will not release the truck without the title being completely filled out with the new owner's name(s) and details.  Please do not ask for me to give you the title without the prior underlined detail.

If you have any questions, please email me before you bid.  Thanks for looking.  If you're the successful bidder, many thanks.

Chrysler recalling hundreds of thousands of Jeep Grand Cherokee and Commander SUVs

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

The public might associated ignition switch recalls with General Motors - and with good cause - but that's not the only automaker calling its vehicles back in to fix that sort of issue.
Last month we reported that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration was investigating an array of Chrysler Group vehicles for electrical-related safety issues. The administration and Chrysler subsequently issued a recall for 700,000 Dodge Journey crossovers, Dodge Grand Caravan minivans and Chrysler Town & Country minivans. But while the Jeeps that were also under investigation were not covered in that recall, they are being addressed in a separate one now.
Although Chrysler reports that it is only aware of a single accident stemming from this issue, it is "committing now to conduct a recall out of an abundance of caution." The recall affects the 2006-2007 Jeep Commander and 2005-2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee, of which it reports there are 792,300 on the road: 649,900 in the United States, 28,800 in Canada, 12,800 in Mexico and a further 100,800 outside of North America.

Jeep Cherokee faces on-sale delay

Sat, 23 Mar 2013

A report in The Wall Street Journal looks at some of the obstacles to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee that go beyond its mootable yet "very contemporary" looks, almost all of them based on Fiat's financial position. Starting with that sheetmetal, in defense of it SRT president Ralph Gilles and Jeep design head Mark Allen said they wanted to "make sure the design still looks modern five years from now."
The WSJ piece doesn't cite longevity as a factor, instead saying that its features originated in a design for an Alfa Romeo, the transformation into a Jeep design meant allowing Chrysler get it to market more quickly and save "hundreds of millions of dollars" in engineering.
The need for Fiat to save money while it weathers the European situation has cut budgets for development, engineering and the pace of retooling the Toledo, Ohio plant to build the Cherokee. In a familiar case of snowballing at work, among the effects will be pushing back the Cherokee's volume sales date and delaying updates to some of Chrysler's other products.

Chrysler nets $1.6B income in Q4, Fiat profit up 5%

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

Chrysler announced its 2013 financial results today and unveiled its new name and decidedly bank-like logo. Amid the announcement, Chrysler posted big gains in income, while Fiat didn't perform to analysts' expectations.
For 2013, Chrysler had revenue of $72.1 billion, up 10 percent from 2012. Net income reached $2.8 billion, a 65-percent increase. It was the company's third straight year of annual profits.
In terms of unit sales, Chrysler sold 2.4 million cars worldwide in 2013, up 9 percent. According to Automotive News, 1.8 million of those vehicles were sold in the US, a 14-percent increase. The sales growth boosted Chrysler's US market share to 11.4 percent, up 0.2 percent.
