I am offering up for sale one of the nicest Jeeps I have ever owned.

CONDITION:

This Jeep runs and drives like a dream.  Just turn the key and it immediately comes alive.  The original owner bought this Jeep just before retirement.  He claimed that it never saw a winter being that they were snowbirds (had one house in Idaho and one in Arizona).  The mileage of 75,500 are original miles and the original owner stated that half of those miles were towed miles.  Just drive this Jeep and see its condition and you will know that he was telling the truth.  There is absolutely NO RUST on this Jeep.  It has always been in the dry climates of Idaho and Arizona.  It is extremely rare to find a Jeep of this age and in its original condition with No Rust.  As you can tell by the pictures, it is nearly flawless.  The Laredo stickers are in great shape and there are a few small light surface scratches and no dents.  You will have a hard time finding one this nice and in this great of condition.

The only thing that this Jeep is missing is the original Air Conditioning.  The original owner had it removed because he did not believe air conditioning should have come in a Jeep in the first place.  If the Jeep doesn't sell, I am going to keep it and put in an aftermarket Vintage Air system.  (Vintage Air will be more reliable than trying to find the original compressor anyway).  As you can see, the mounts for the air conditioning compressor are still attached to the engine block, so the addition of the compressor would be simple.  I drive this Jeep daily and it is a blast to be in.  It gets looks all the time.  The Laredo package on this CJ5 doesn't end with the decals, it also has the upgraded steering wheel, custom leather seats and leather grab bar, ash tray on the dash, badging, clock, etc.  All the gauges work as they should and the last trip I took which was about 150 miles, I got about 16 miles to the gallon at @ 60-65 mph.  (With the 4 speed, I could have traveled faster.  RPM Gauge was reading just under 2,000 RPM's at 65 mph).

The Four Wheel Drive works as it should and it as well as the transmission shifts perfect, just like new.  In the time that I have owned this Jeep, it has been very reliable and I would not have a problem driving this across the country (as long as the weather is nice).  As are most CJ5's, it can be a little squirrely with the Power Steering, however, I got used to it really quick and as mentioned above, I have traveled long distances with it at a fast pace.

FEATURES: 

Jeep comes with the original 1981 Jeep Owners Manual, soft top with full soft doors, soft half doors, good tire life left on the All-Terrain BFGoodrich Tires, Original Factory Wheels, the original owner owned this Jeep until this year.  I admit, I got a great deal on it and if I do not sell it, I will keep it.  It is worth every penny and more of my Buy It Now price.  The lucky new owner of this Jeep will be in Heaven and be the envy of many.  That is how great this Jeep is.  The Jeep has not been lifted.  When I bought it, I had a local spring shop re-arch the front springs so that the Jeep would sit level.  The springs are still in the stock original location.  The Jeep also has the stock Posi-Trac in the Rear.  It does not leak any fluids what-so-ever.  Oil changes were done regularly with 10-30 Valvoline and K&N Oil Filters.

I am sure that I am missing something, so if you have any questions or comments, just send them my way and I will answer them.  I can also take more pics if you want to see something specific that are not in the pics in the ad.  As you can see by my feedback, I am very honest and truthful in describing what I am selling.  This ad is no exception.  You will not be disappointed with this Jeep.

Shipping is at the owners expense, however, I will do what I can to help load the Jeep.  Good Luck.  Thanks for looking at my auction.  You can call or text me at 2O8.869.9927.  I am in Idaho.

Jeep Renegade pricing to start at $18,595?

Fri, 14 Mar 2014

While there's no shortage of excitement surrounding the new Jeep Renegade, one of the limiting factors to the little trucklet will be its price. With the Kia Soul starting at $14,900 and the Nissan Juke kicking off at $18,990, the Renegade can't afford to stray away from that price bracket.
And judging by some potentially leaked pricing info, it won't. A quick Google search of "Jeep Renegade Price" reveals (at least for now) that the Italian-built Jeep will start at $18,595. The "as shown" price of $25,895 seems to indicate the Trailhawk model shown on Jeep's consumer page.
If the $18,595 figure is correct, it's likely for the base, two-wheel-drive Sport model, with the Latitude and Limited trims falling somewhere between there and the $25,895 as-equipped price of the Trailhawk.

Maserati Levante crossover not Jeep based after all?

Thu, 20 Feb 2014

Maserati has been teasing its crossover project since 2011, which is when it first showed off the Kubang concept (pictured above). Still, the production version, rumored to be called the Levante, remains a complete mystery. The CUV was first rumored to borrow the platform from the Jeep Grand Cherokee, but new rumors indicate that the Italian, luxury crossover might actually take the underpinnings from the Quattroporte and Ghibli.
In a brief interview, Maserati CEO Harald Wester told CNN Money that the Levante wouldn't use Jeep's platform. Motor Trend spoke with an unnamed Maserati engineer who confirmed the rumor. Officially, the company says that no decision has been made.
We can add this to another long list of rumors about the Italian CUV. It was originally supposed to be built at Chrysler's Jefferson North assembly plant in Detroit. Then, plans were changed to build it in Italy.
