This is a red ’89 Jeep Wrangler, the four-cylinder make. It is considerably rusty and, at 236,825 miles, it is well used (though the engine, which was pulled and moved over from a '95 Wrangler, has closer to 150,000). It starts fast and runs strong. We just drove it to Pittsburgh (from Cleveland) and back last week without trouble. The following things have been replaced in the last couple years: Radiator Left front wheel bearing and axle U-joint Steering gear box Clutch Tie rods Some other things to know would be that the parking/emergency brake doesn’t work (I carry a brick around for when I have to park on an incline), neither does the horn. In a heavy rain, water will drip down from the dashboard and flood the floor of the front seats, but but there are drainage holes for this. The rear windows to the soft top can be a hassle to get on and one of the zippers is torn (since the interior is all metal and vinyl I just leave them out when it rains). The rear plastic window has a hole of about 5 inches which flaps in the breeze, but could be sealed with tape. The tires are fairly bald. And it consistently gets between 18-22 mpg (better around town than on the highway). You can see from the pictures that it has significant rust. It also runs very loud and needs a muffler, but being more than 25 years old, is exempt from emissions testing. Any old muffler on it would quiet it down for driving. The 4WD works, but sometimes slips out of gear. We use a bungy cord to keep pressure on the stick to keep it engaged. This would be a great farm vehicle to get around the back 40. Or you could just pull the engine and move it to something else. The back seat, rarely used, is in good shape. Same with the passenger seat. The wheels are stock Jeep from a 99 Wrangler. On Sep-10-14 at 10:11:32 PDT, seller added the following information: One more thing. If you fill the gas tank all the way up, you get a gas smell if it's garaged. I think the seal is faulty for the in-tank fuel pump needs replaced. The fuel pump was replaced 3 years ago and we cut an access panel to it in the rear trunk area. So it's not hard to get to that area to check it. I just keep forgetting. I've owned this Jeep for 14 years and even though it's well-worn, I'll be sad to see it go. I'd keep it except my son (who drove it the last 4 years) just went to London to study for his Master's degree and I don't want to store it for a year. |

Key-swapping thieves steal Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT from FL dealer
Sat, 09 Nov 2013Just a few weeks back, we reported on the theft of an Audi RS5 by a pair of creative thieves who managed to swipe the car's keys when the salesperson stepped away from their desk. Now, a Florida dealership is missing a Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 after some crooks switched the Jeep's keys with an identical, non-functioning set.
According to the report from local NBC affiliate WPTV, the men went in and spoke to a dealer about the Jeep. They walked outside, took a look at it, started it up and in the process managed to switch out the fobs. After doing their time with the salesperson, the thieves walked back out to the car, got in and drove away.
"I mean obviously, the way it was done, I think that they were professionals and they knew what they were doing," said Arrigo Jeep General Manager Joe Tufo. "The fact that they did it in broad daylight and switched the key fob and it was like it was nothing. That's what makes it unique," he added.
Jeep Cherokee finally dealer-bound
Tue, 22 Oct 2013We had our First Drive of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee last month, but it appears that prospective buyers won't have too much longer to finally get time behind the wheel of the new small Jeep.
Automotive News is reporting that after a two-month delay, Jeep dealers will finally start receiving their first shipments of the new Cherokee, in the next 10 days. A Chrysler spokesperson confirmed to Autoblog that the Cherokee is indeed on its way to Jeep dealers.
According to AN, about 23,000 Cherokees have been built since production commenced back in June, but potential powertrain issues forced Jeep to make adjustments to the Cherokee along the way. Automotive News says that in order to make sure there are no issues with the Cherokee before it reaches customers, it is testing each vehicle after it rolls off the assembly line at a rented test track near the vehicle's Toledo North Assembly Plant.
Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards
Tue, 27 Nov 2012Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
