I'm selling my custom 2008 Jeep Wranger that has been well cared for and pampered. I built this rig with the intention of creating a very capable off-road vehicle without compromising highway drivability, and this Jeep has exceeded expectations. I used it primarily as a daily driver (mostly highway) and only had the opportunity to take it off road a few times. I spent roughly $9 on accessories (not including installation labor) to deck this Wranger out and maximize its performance, and it handles just as well today as it did when I drove it off of the lot. Modifications include:


AEV Front Bumper
Tabor 9k Winch w/ Warn wired remote
Warn Fog Lights
Bushwacker Fender Flares
OME 2.5" Lift Kit
Toyo Open Country MT 35" Tires (about 20k miles on them, rotated every 3k)
AEV 17" Pintler Wheels
Rugged Ridge 2" Rock Rails
Pure Jeep Rear Bumper w/ D Ring Mounts
Pure Jeep Swing-out tire carrier
Third brake light extension
Mopar Jeep fuel door
Kicker soundbar speakers
Tuffy steel security center console
Mopar cargo mats

I've maintained this vehicle with the intention of having it last for a very long time, always using full synthetic oil, and I'm only parting with it because of financial hardship. This Jeep is a ton of fun to roll around in with the doors off and top down when its warm out, tackles the snow unlike anything else out there, handles like a daily driver should and can take you where other vehicles simply can't. The driver-side door has the ubiquitous crease in it from the door check strap giving way (not very noticeable and couldn't get a picture to display it) and I've replaced the driver's door check strap with bungies. I removed the rear floor carpet and replaced it with the Mopar cargo mat. I replaced the gearshift knob with a baseball gearshift knob (incredibly comfortable!) This ride is a joy to drive and own will make the next owner as happy as it's made me! 
No reserve price and the starting bid is around where the Kelly Blue Book value is for this Jeep without any of the modifications, so this rig could go for thousands less than its actual value. I'm also listing locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early. I'll answer any questions and I'm more than happy to meet with an interested buyer to show it off. Happy Bidding!

Jeep Cherokee sales rival Wrangler after two months

Sun, 29 Dec 2013

In our First Drive article on the 2014 Jeep Cherokee we said, "our informal and thoroughly unscientific opinion is they're going to sell tons of them. Why? Because it is very good." So far, it appears the public concurs. Of course, it's very early - the new compact utility has logged just one month of confirmed sales, but Larry Vellequette at Automotive News says dealers have told him that the second month of sales will be even better, a message that mirrors what we've heard from company execs.
In its first, severely truncated month on sale, the Cherokee sold 579 units. With all of November to play with, though, dealers moved 10,169 of them - compared to 11,753 Wranglers and 14,798 Grand Cherokees. That helped propel Jeep to a 30-percent year-on-year improvement for the month, Chrysler Group to a 16-percent improvement and the group's 44th consecutive month of sales growth, exceeding analyst expectations in posting its best November numbers since 2007.
If it can just keep replicating the its first month of sales, the finalist in North American Truck of the Year voting will smoke the trade done by the outgoing Liberty, which didn't break 7,900 units in a month in the last four years of its life (and normally didn't get close to even that). In March this year, Chrysler said it wants to build 250,000 Cherokees in its Toledo assembly plant for global sales. It's early yet, but with second-month sales quoted as being as "strong as death," the bookies might be resetting the odds.
