1988 Jeep Grand Wagoneer

This has been a great vehicle for me. I have owned this Jeep for roughly three years. I am in the process of moving and am looking to part ways with my Jeep. This Jeep is a classic. It has been a good runner for me. I talked with my wife at great detail about this and have come to realize a few things. 1) I am not a mechanic. 2) I do not want to become a car guy because I would rather spend my money on other hobbies.

I have noticed over the past few months that there was some oil leaking from the Jeep. I took the Jeep into a mechanic this week and was given the following things to look at. 1) Manifold Gasket Set 2) Valve Cover Gasket Set 3) Battery 4) Coolant. The estimated repairs with parts and labor at this specific shop came out to $888.04. Please be aware of this. These are repairs the mechanic could see from the outside of the engine. There could be more once the engine is worked on. The driver side window needs a new track in order to function. I was told by the same mechanic the part can be purchased for about $10. I have a picture of the window motor in my pictures. The plastic track is what needs to be replaced. There are minor rust spots on the body. There is a major rust spot through the rear passenger side floor. This spot goes through the floor and is the size of a softball. Please see the pictures. I had the mechanic fix the tow package, so you could pull something if desired. The interior is in fair to good shape. The carpet is in good shape in both the front and middle of the Jeep. The carpet has started to deteriorate in the rear of the Jeep. If you look at the pictures, you will see a wiring system sticking out of the back door of the Jeep. This was something I had installed to operate the rear window. On this particular model, you need to roll down the rear window before opening the tailgate. If you look closely at the mileage gauge, the number in the one hundred thousandths place looks different. This has led me and my wife to feel as if a previous owner has tampered with the mileage gauge. Once again, I am not a mechanic. I want to make sure I am being as honest as possible with this description. If you have questions on anything else you see, please let me know.

On a final note, I am looking to sell this Jeep because I feel I can spend my money on other hobbies. This would be an awesome vehicle for somebody looking to restore or have a fun project at home. There is a reserve on this Jeep because it does have a lot of nice qualities to it. The best being that it is a cool ride. Please feel free to email me your questions and I will try to be as honest as possible about it. Please understand my knowledge of everything automobile related is limited, but I will try to do my best to help you out.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley 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:

Best 3rd Row SUVs of 2024

Wed, Oct 19 2022

If you plan on using a vehicle's third row a lot, let us at least make the suggestion that a minivan would be a smarter bet than anything you're going to see on this list of best three-row SUVs. Their third rows are bigger, more comfortable and easier to get to. The kids will definitely be happier. Here are our two top choices. OK, now that that's out of the way, we totally get why minivans are totally depressing and that if the kids want to be happier, they can buy their own darn vehicle. You're buying, you're driving, you're being seen in it and you'd rather have a three-row SUV. Fair enough. Luckily, there are more choices than ever and they're really good. The best do a particularly good job of being family friendly without looking like a drab transportation appliance, although really, you can't go wrong with any of the mainstream three-row SUVs. Now, some of the luxury choices are a bit suspect, including those that are otherwise very appealing but have cramped third-row seats (the Genesis GV80 comes to mind). We're focusing on three-row SUVs here, so having a usable third row is a must. In this list, we have broken things down into four sub-categories: Best Three-Row Crossover | Best Full-size Three-Row SUV Best Luxury Three-Row SUV | Best Flagship Luxury Three-Row SUV Note that we define crossovers as SUVs since most buyers use the terms interchangeably, but acknowledge that "crossover" is literally a vehicle with a car-like unibody structure as opposed to the truck-like, body-on-frame construction that traditionally has defined "SUV." In other words, we consider all crossovers SUVs, but not all SUVs are crossovers (specifically those in the full-size segment and some in the flagship luxury segment). Best Three-Row Crossover SUVs of 2024 2024 Honda Pilot Why it stands out: Exceptional storage and cargo space; unique second-row functionality; refined ride; versatile and capable TrailSport; advanced AWDCould be better: Subpar acceleration with lackadaisical transmission and engine response; so-so driver assistance tech Read our full 2024 Honda Pilot Review The Honda Pilot was completely redesigned for 2023. It maintains its predecessor's family friendly packaging and overall focus, but it has injected a welcome sense of style (especially in the TrailSport pictured above) that makes it stand out much better from the big crossover crowd.

Watch a Cayenne Turbo S, Range Rover SVR, and Cherokee SRT drag race

Thu, Mar 17 2016

We live in a weird world where high-performance SUVs could win a 60-mile-per-hour sprint against sports cars from just a few years ago. Here, Top Gear sets up a three-way drag race against the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S, Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR, and Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT, and the results show just how quickly these high-riding models can cross the quarter mile. The Cherokee SRT is the patriotic choice among the three, but it's down on power in this fight. Meanwhile, the Range Rover's menacing growl sounds the best, and the Cayenne Turbo S has the most horsepower. You'll have to watch the video to see which SUV will win this battle. Related Video:
