Jeep: Wrangler Rubicion on 2040-cars
Staffordville, Connecticut, United States
This is a Connecticut Listing, Offered for sale is one of my pride and joys. I purchased this 06 Rubicon with 5K miles in 2006 from the original owner. 10 years later it is still completely stock and now has 69,345 miles. If you are new to Jeeps understand that this is the last year of the Rubicon Model with a inline 4.0 six cylinder motor. It is the last year of the TJ model overall and many consider it the last real jeep.You will consistently see Jeep Wranglers with the inline 4.0 on the road and being sold with over 250K miles with many that have been well maintained in the 350k range for total miles. If you do not understand the difference between a Rubicon and a Sahara, Sport or X, please look on line. It is not just the sticker on the hood. This is one of the rarest of colors with a rare automatic transmission and full doors. Proven to be one of the most desired Wranglers ever manufactured, this is a extremely clean, always garaged, well cared for daily driver. Though a New England Jeep it was washed religiously every time it was exposed to winter weather and it shows. This is a awesome Jeep. If I did not have a 06 Rubicon in a LJ version, I would never sell this Jeep. In these economic times I just cannot justify keeping both. When you get tired of looking at the rusty junk take a good look at this jeep. The Rubicon has just received a new factory fuel pump, new front tires, a alignment, a full emissions service and a fresh detail inside and out. It runs drives and goes down the road perfectly. The soft top is original to the jeep and has seen no winters and very little use overall. I installed a new set of OEM Tinted window curtains last year (my old set went on one of my sons jeep) and the zippers work perfectly. The top has had one small repair that would be hard to find if you didnt know what you were looking for. This Rubicon has a clean original rust free frame that has never been repaired in any way. This Rubicon still has all of the factory glass and the original one model year only Moab Wheels. It has had some paint work and the drivers side fender and rocker were professionally replaced. There was no suspension damage. This was not a roll over. It was professionally repaired with all OEM parts and has passed Connecticut DMV Inspection receiving a new title. Ive had a couple of questions about the repair. There is a picture of what the Rubicon looked like after the non licensed, uninsured non US citizen decided to pass me on the left while I was making a left turn. The second is what the jeep like looked like after the front fender and damaged body side skin were removed. The third is after repair with the jeep in primer prior to inspection. The new fender and body side skin are OEM and were purchased from a Chrysler Dealer. The original spot welds were drilled out and the new panel was attached in the factory location and welded in place. You would have to be a very experienced bodyman, that knew Wranglers, to pick up on the repair. 99.999% of the population would never know. As you can see from the pictures the accident was not a huge deal. I pushed the insurance company for the total lose because the adjuster convinced me that the frame was bent even though I drove the Jeep home after the accident with no issues at 70-75 down the highway. The adjuster was incorrect. Once we got the Jeep on the frame machine and measured it per factory specs it was determined that the body had shifted on the mounts and the frame was in fact straight. The insurance company paid me off for the value of the Jeep. (well above NADA)I purchased it back salvage. I repaired the Jeep and took it through the State of Connecticut Rebuilt Vehicle Inspection.The finish paint was applied in a commercial paint booth. I drove the jeep this past winter as my daily driver. The winter has passed. The weather is nice and my LJ is out of its winter hibernation.I have painfully decided to let my Orange Rubicon go in order to finance another project. The Rubicon has a clean Rebuilt Title and is ready for its new owner. I encourage any interested party to come and look at this Jeep in person. You will not be disappointed. Priced at market. Try to find another 2006 Orange Rubicon Automatic. I have a Hardtop and the factory Navigation package available but they will not be sold with the Jeep at the listed price. I will provide a OEM radio or a aftermarket radio with the Jeep, your choice. The rest of the premium sound system is intact including the factory sound bar, dash speakers and sub woofer. You can here the stereo while driving with the top down, even on the highway, loud and clear. Serious cash in hand parties only.The Jeep is to be paid for with certified funds before the title is transferred and it leaves my property. I would be happy to assist in arranging transportation or the loading your shippers truck after your purchase. I may also be willing to deliver, depending on the distance, for a fee. Sorry I will not quote shipping this vehicle all over the country. Unless you have a late model 50+hp 4x4 tractor with a loader, enclosed cab, factory remotes, with heat and ac I am not interested in a trade of any kind. Yes that means I am not interested in the car that your grandmother gave you. Sorry, I might be interested in your grandfathers late 60s American muscle, if it is a convertible. Ive had Jeeps since I was in school. That was a long time ago.I know them well.

FCA Recalls Jeep in Wake of Wireless Hack | Autoblog Minute

Jeep Grand Cherokee redesign delayed
Sat, Jun 27 2015The launch of the next-gen Jeep Grand Cherokee is being now being pushed back until late 2018 or even into 2019, Jeep CEO Mike Manley indicated Friday, according to Automotive News citing a Reuters report. Under the original five-year plan, the SUV was supposed to be replaced in the third quarter of 2017. That would have made for a big year for Jeep with a refreshed Renegade and new Wrangler also slated for 2017. A delayed Grand Cherokee could send ripples through Jeep's product plans. The three-row Grand Wagoneer is meant to give the brand a vehicle to take on the Land Rover Range Rover, but it's supposed to use the same platform as the Grand Cherokee. This change is rumored to push that important model's launch further back. There's less uncertainty when it comes to the next-gen Wrangler. Manley said that the model was "broadly on track," according to Automotive News. The five-year plan aimed for a launch in the second quarter of 2017. Controversy, however, has swirled over possible plans to move the Wrangler from its longtime Toledo, OH, factory. One problem Jeep doesn't have to worry about right now is sales. According to Automotive News, Manley said volume was up 20 percent globally and could reach 1.2 million by the end of the year. He also indicated the brand was "on pace" to reach its 1.9-million-vehicle goal for 2018. The Grand Cherokee delay comes in the wake of rumors that FCA US is shuffling around its previous five-year vehicle launch plan to postpone several models. Related Video:
Jeep Cherokee faces on-sale delay
Sat, 23 Mar 2013A report in The Wall Street Journal looks at some of the obstacles to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee that go beyond its mootable yet "very contemporary" looks, almost all of them based on Fiat's financial position. Starting with that sheetmetal, in defense of it SRT president Ralph Gilles and Jeep design head Mark Allen said they wanted to "make sure the design still looks modern five years from now."
The WSJ piece doesn't cite longevity as a factor, instead saying that its features originated in a design for an Alfa Romeo, the transformation into a Jeep design meant allowing Chrysler get it to market more quickly and save "hundreds of millions of dollars" in engineering.
The need for Fiat to save money while it weathers the European situation has cut budgets for development, engineering and the pace of retooling the Toledo, Ohio plant to build the Cherokee. In a familiar case of snowballing at work, among the effects will be pushing back the Cherokee's volume sales date and delaying updates to some of Chrysler's other products.
