This is a California jeep that has been in and around the LA area for it’s life.  It has been in Texas since I purchased it a handful of months ago.  My circumstances have changed and the Jeep needs to go.   I have used this Jeep very little during my ownership.  I never licensed it here in Texas or did anything for that matter.  The engine starts and runs reliably.  It runs smooth and quiet.  The mileage is correct.  The Jeep is rust free and accident free.  It does, because it is a Jeep, have minor bumps, bruises, and dings here and there.   The body is clean.  The body sports the original decals but someone has done a lousy repaint around them.  The interior paint is original and with red oxide primer showing in the floor boards (it is not rust).   Jeep has a four speed transmission that shifts easily (for a Jeep).  The seats are original with no rips or tears.  The dash has no cracks and is in good shape.  The gauges are in good shape.  That I can tell, the engine and the transmission are original and have never been out of the vehicle.   No cracks in the glass.  Comes with full factory original doors.  This Jeep is good to go.  Jeep is garaged. 

Jeep has a new best top bikini top, new carpet (not installed), new rearview mirrors and some latches, floor mats, owner’s manual

Jeep needs- new spare tire (old and worn)AND snorkel for the air cleaner

JEEP IS BEING SOLD LOCALLY SO I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CANCEL THE AUCTION AT ANYTIME.  PLEASE EMAIL ANY QUESTIONS.  YOU ARE WELCOME TO INSPECT THE VEHILCE PRIOR TO PURCHASE.  THANKS.

Jeep Wrangler diesel likely after 2015 model refresh

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

We automotive journalists aren't always the right people to ask about whether a US-spec vehicle should or should not be offered with a diesel powertrain (hint: the answer is usually "YES"). But when it comes to the iconic, off-road-ready Jeep Wrangler, we aren't the only ones who have been clamoring for an oil-burning engine behind that famous seven-slat grille. To that end, it appears there's good news on the horizon, as Jeep CEO Mike Manley recently told Ward's Auto that the "Wrangler is on the radar to get (a) diesel."
"I'm confident that the Grand Cherokee will show just how large a demand there is for diesel, and I think what that will do is reinforce the need for us to target Wrangler as a vehicle that can take a diesel," Manley told Ward's. The most rugged of Jeeps is scheduled to get an overhaul around 2015-16, and the diesel powertrain will likely be introduced around that time.
This year alone, Chrysler will be adding a diesel engine to the Grand Cherokee SUV, as well as the Ram 1500 pickup and Promaster utility van.

Chrysler reports $166M net income for Q1, down $307M vs. 2012

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

Preliminary first-quarter results from 2013 have been announced by Chrysler, and the company is reporting a net income of $166 million on revenue of $15.4 billion. Compared to this period last year, net income is down $307 million and revenue has dropped $1 billion.
Chrysler says that its quarter was negatively affected by the costs associated with launching its 2013 Ram Heavy Duty, 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and preparation for the return of the all-new 2014 Jeep Cherokee pictured above. The launches should provide a strong second half of 2013, says the automaker. "We remain on track to achieve our business targets, even as the first-quarter results were affected by an aggressive product launch schedule," said Chrysler Group LLC Chairman and CEO Sergio Marchionne.
On a positive note, the automaker says worldwide vehicle sales are up 8 percent from one year ago, a number pushed by a 12 percent bump in U.S. retail sales. In addition, domestic market share has risen slightly, up to 11.4 percent from 11.2 percent last year. Read more in the official statement below.

2014 Jeep Cherokee facing production delay

Fri, 17 May 2013

Jeep's bold-faced new direction spearheaded by the 2014 Cherokee is facing some teething issues. According to a report by the Detroit Free Press, production start-up of the controversial new utility vehicle at its Toledo North facility is running about a month behind schedule "due to a wide range of issues." That's according to Mark Chernoby, senior vice president of engineering at Chrysler.
Chernoby maintains that the issues being encountered aren't unusual for the launch of a new vehicle - particularly one with a new powertrain - and he downplayed the delay, telling Jeep dealers that they "will have ample inventory of the midsize SUV by fall." Among the kinks being worked out? Calibrating the Cherokee's cutting-edge ZF nine-speed automatic transmission and refining assembly line tasks to make the process more efficient.
Chrysler expects to start building retail-ready versions of the Cherokee around mid-June, with official sales slated to start in September.
