I am the original owner of this 1988 Jeep Comanche, which I bought in January, 1988 in Manassas, VA. The truck has been in Arizona since August, 2001. The truck is a 4WD, long bed (7 feet) and was delivered in the Pioneer trim with optional extra capacity fuel tank (23.5 gal). The vehicle has the 4.0 liter, 6 cylinder engine with automatic transmission on the steering column. Other features include cruise control, tilt steering wheel, power steering, tow hooks, heavy duty cooling, sliding rear window, dual low profile towing mirrors, cargo area light, front fog lamps, leather wrapped steering wheel, cargo bed side rails and five 10 spoke sport aluminum wheels (powder paint coated grey). In 1999 the rear end was upgraded to limited slip along with heavy duty springs for heavier payloads. The vehicle was repainted its original black in the Fall of 2010. The truck bed is coated with Line-X bed liner. The bench seat was re-upholstered with leather about two years ago. An electric trailer brake control compliments the Class III hitch. At 114,710 miles, the interior gauge set was upgraded to the “Laredo” type to include voltmeter, oil pressure gauge, engine temperature, trip odometer, and tachometer. An odometer replacement sticker is on the glovebox door. The original radio, which would no longer power on, was replaced by a JVC Model KD-AR560. This radio has a removable face plate, CD slot and is Sirius ready. The Sirius converter box is not activated. A Flowmaster Series 50 Delta Flow muffler, which sounds good without being too loud, was installed in August, 2010. The tires, BF Goodrich T/A Radial, P245/60R15, were installed at 139,500 miles in January, 2013. A Chrysler certified rebuilt steering box was installed in April, 2014.

This well maintained truck was used occasionally to move a horse trailer locally, pick up hay and general everyday trips around town. The truck has not been used commercially and I estimate 95% of its 143,000 miles are without any type load at all. A major service was done at 140,500 miles in July, 2013. This vehicle’s original sticker price was $15,000; the current NADA high retail for this vehicle is $8,500. The vehicle is being offered at $7,000.

Chrysler defies NHTSA, says it won't recall 2.7M Jeep Grand Cherokee, Liberty models

Wed, 05 Jun 2013

Facing a possible recall totaling around 2.7 million of its most popular SUVs, Chrysler remains insistent that the 1993-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee and 2002-2007 Jeep Liberty are safe vehicles. This comes on the heels of a recall request from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration for these two models due to fuel tanks mounted behind the rear axle, which could possibly be ruptured during severe rear-end collisions, leading to an increased risk of fire. In response to the allegations, Chrysler says that it does not agree with NHTSA nor does it plan on recalling either vehicle.
Chrysler said both SUVs "met and exceeded" the requirements for fuel-system integrity, and cooperated fully with NHTSA since the investigation was opened in 2010. While 15 deaths and 46 injuries have been reported from fires caused by rear-end collisions on these models, Chrysler is claiming that the vast majority of incidents cited by NHTSA were "high-energy crashes," including one where a stopped Grand Cherokee was rear-ended by a tractor trailer going 65 miles per hour.
The automaker wraps up by saying "NHTSA seems to be holding Chrysler Group to a new standard for fuel tank integrity that does not exist now and did not exist when the Jeep vehicles were manufactured." Scroll down for Chrysler's official response to NHTSA, but we're pretty sure this isn't the last we've heard on this issue.

2014 Jeep Cherokee musters 22 MPG city, 31 highway

Thu, 05 Sep 2013

Production and media drive delays included, there has been no lack of press surrounding the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. With the most recent delay reportedly due to powertrain calibrations, we've been waiting to see how the Cherokee's fuel economy looks against the highly competitive compact CUV segment. Thanks to the EPA, we now know the fuel economy figures for the newest member of the Jeep family.
Arguably, the Cherokee has the most modern powertrain in its class with an updated base engine, all-new V6 and all-new nine-speed automatic transmission, but its fuel economy figures are simply on par for the segment. Still nothing to scoff at, though. According to fueleconomy.gov, front-wheel-drive Cherokee models with the base four-cylinder mill will top out the lineup with 22 miles per gallon in the city and 31 mpg on the highway; opting for four-wheel drive with this engine drops the figures to 21 city and 28 highway. Get even crazier with the option list, and the new 3.2-liter Pentastar V6 will get you 19 mpg city and 28 mpg highway in two-wheel-drive form or 19 city and 27 highway for 4WD.
If you're wondering how that stacks up among compact CUVs, head on over to Automobile Magazine for a full fuel economy breakdown for the segment. The controversially styled crossover hits dealers this month, and we'll be driving it in just a couple of weeks.

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles: The next five years

Tue, 06 May 2014

Unless you've been living under a rock for the past 24 hours, you've no doubt read about all of the big future product news coming out of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles today. We had individual brand reports from Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Maserati and even Ferrari, but in the interest of simplifying and summarizing, we're going to list out the hard facts once more. Of course, with all of this still off in the future, there's still the possibility that a few changes will be made. But as of what we know right now, here's what's coming, and what's going away.
