Up for sale is my Father's 1997 Jeep Cherokee Sport
Dad purchased this vehicle new from our local Jeep dealer upon his retirement in 1997; we are the original owner's. We have every bill and receipt since buying new. Dad was extremely fussy about his vehicles, and it shows. ORIGINAL 39,715 MILES!!! Always babied and maintained. We even have all of the inspection receipts from the last seven years documenting the low mileage. In the last few years, the Jeep has only been driven an average of about 500 miles per year. Partial list of new items that have been installed within the last 1000 miles or so: New Yokohama Geolander A/T (235/75/15) tires. New front brake pads New front rotors New front brake lines New rear wheel cylinders New rear brake lines New serpentine belt New upper radiator hose New exhaust New headlights New rear hatch struts New front wheel axle u-joints Exterior: Very good condition, paint shines like new, only a few very minor chips in paint and one small crease on passenger rear door that is virtually undetectable. There was a small amount of bubbling on rocker panels just below rear doors, but has been touched up. Black fender flares have been touched up- they will eventually flake off again! Undercarriage is typical for 18 year old car. Not a show car!

No rips or tears on any seats. Some light staining on carpeting. One very small tear (1/4") on headliner. Original am/fm factory radio. Sony cassette player (in box) included, with correct adapters. Dad had the dealer install power locks, but they don't always seem to work; manual locks work just fine. Spare tire has never been out of car, neither has jack,... Mechanical: Never off road, never abused. Always maintained. Battery was replaced approx. 2-12 years ago,. Starts and stops fine, A/C does not blow cold anymore, all components are there, very likely a small leak. Compressor makes no strange noises or squealing. Car stops great; very firm brake pedal feel with no pulling or fading. Transmission shifts firm.

Going high-tech, the 4x4 way
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Is It An Off-Road Adventure Or Just A Walk In The Park?
I remember having to get out and lock hubs and shift into neutral to engage low range.
Coming off press previews of the 2013 Land Rover Range Rover and the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee that involved some heavy-duty off-road rock climbing, I'm simply amazed at the capabilities that these vehicles possess. But even more impressive (or troubling depending on your perspective) is the relative ease with which you can operate these vehicles in seemingly impossible terrain.
Radical 2016 Jeep Wrangler suggested by job listings?
Fri, 31 May 2013With most inside the industry expecting the next-generation Jeep Wrangler to arrive for the 2016 model year, it makes sense that the automaker would be looking for some choice candidates to to fill program openings as the off-roader goes through its development. A recent ad on Chryslercareers.com suggests to some that the lightweight Wrangler Stitch Concept, revealed just two months ago and shown above, provides some clues about the off-road icon's next iteration.
According to Automotive News, the job descriptions - which don't name the model specifically - hint that the next-generation Wrangler will benefit from a serious diet. The ads appear to seek those familiar with advanced high-strength steels, hinting that lightweight aluminum body panels may appear on the 4x4. In addition, there are suggestions that Jeep may fit the Wrangler replacement with air suspension, as seen on the Ram and Grand Cherokee, to retain ample off-road clearance yet lower that chassis to improve aerodynamics at highway speeds. The job postings reportedly also lend credence to the idea of a diesel Wrangler.
It seems every bit of the next-generation Wrangler is up for review, as it will be the first time this iconic model is redesigned under Fiat ownership. Questions remain whether or not the Jeep will retain its clip-down hood, easy-to-remove door pins and folding front windshield - loyalists expect them, but fuel economy and safety standards may crimp their cases for survival.
Chrysler adding 200 jobs at Ohio Jeep Wrangler plant
Fri, 15 Mar 2013Chrysler is betting that the Jeep Wrangler will continue its strong sales surge as it continues to push the legendary brand out across the globe. The Auburn Hills automaker is reportedly adding 200 workers at the Toledo, Ohio plant that builds the Wrangler. What's more, those new hires will be at their posts quickly - they'll be on the job by April 1. Of those 200 workers, 130 employees will be there to relieve those who need breaks.
Why do they need so many relief workers? The Toledo Jeep Complex is currently working at a torrid pace with two ten-hour shifts. A third shift has been ruled out for the moment because of a production botttleneck - the plant's paint shop is already maxed out. According to Reuters, Wrangler production in 2012 cleared 200,000 units, and US sales were up by 16 percent.
Another part of the Toledo plant is presently down as Chrysler retools the line to build Jeep's divisively styled Liberty replacement, the Cherokee (seen in our gallery below). Production for the new model is scheduled to begin toward the end of May.
