Offered for sale is an excellent example of a 2005 Wrangler TJ Unlimited (LJ) with 180,000 miles on the odometer.
You aficionados of modern Jeeps already know and understand the scarcity and popularity of this iteration of the
Jeep icon. This Jeep has never been wrecked, and has always been properly serviced. The Jeep was registered in New
York, however the previous owner would drive cross country to Florida every year in it (snowbird), thus it has
never seen a New England winter.
The first owner was a retired military officer. He had aftermarket options added to it throughout the time he owned
it and enjoyed the Jeep for ten years, using it every day; I am sure you can do the math 180k on the clock in 10
years is a lot of driving 90% of which was highway, however this Jeep was never off-roaded. The transmission was
replaced by the dealer and has less than 10,000 miles on it, after the swap it will cruise at 2000 RPMs going 70
MPH all day. During the swap the engine was looked over and necessary replacements were made. Those of you who have
been waiting for this Jeep will already know and appreciate its plethora of performance enhancements. My wife and I
just had our first child, thus, begrudgingly this awesome truck must be sold.
In addition to everything Jeep blessed this very capable off-roader with, here is a list of the 17k invested in
additional enhancements:
Rough Country 3" Suspension Lift
Rough Country 1" Body Lift
Bilstein Shocks front and rear
Rigid Industries R-46 Spot/Flood lights
Rigid Industries Dually Flood lights
QRC Front Bumper
XRC Rear Bumper with Tire Swing
Brand new aftermarket radiator with Silicone HPS hoses
New Jasper Overdrive Transmission w/ transmission cooler and temperature gauge
Magnaflow Custom Exhaust
Rancho Steering Stabilizer
Tom Woods Drive Shafts
Disk Brakes on all 4 corners
Brand new Optima Red Top Battery
Cooper Discovery All-Terrain Tires
Bed-lined Interior and Undercarriage
Fogged Frame (prevents any rusting from inside the frame, which is very common on these trucks)
Aftermarket Delta Headlights
Corbeau Leather seats
Bestop Rear Jumper Seat
Kenwood Aftermarket Radio
Pyle Marine Amp
All of the factory audio was replaced with Kicker Speakers
Bestop Slantback Soft top-Allows the front section over the driver and passenger to be folded back independently
like a sunroof. The top is in excellent shape - no holes, tears, rips or fading and the windows are all clear. The
original paint is in excellent condition and shines very well.
The Blue Book value on this truck is ~$10,000 bone stock, you will not be able to own a better example of a well
modified Jeep without dumping 17k into one yourself.
Feel free to ask questions. . .

What's really going on with the 2014 Jeep Cherokee's transmission issues?

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

On September 23, Automotive News reported that Chrysler had idled the second shift workers it hired just five weeks prior at its Toledo Assembly Complex to build the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. At the time, Chrysler said it had "built the critical number of vehicles we need to stock dealerships once containment is released" and did not want "to put additional strain on our logistics partners ... upon release." That reasoning was not only unusual, it didn't seem to make sense.
It appears the center of the nine-speed issue is software, not hardware.
That same day, the Detroit News ran a piece claiming workers at the Toledo factory said the halt was due to issues with the Cherokee's transmission. It put the number of already-built Cherokees needing fixes at 1,000 and said that some of the workers not laid off had been instructed "to take the Jeep on long test-drives." That made more sense. Three days later, on September 26, Automotive News reported that the 500 workers laid off had been reinstated, with engineers "speeding repairs on the SUV's powertrain software." The AN piece didn't put a number on how many units are being fixed, but it did say that 12,000 have been built and are awaiting delivery to dealers. The best it could say about when dealers will get them, however, is that "progress on a fix is being made. It's unclear when shipments to dealers will start."

Six 'shut up and take my money' cars

Tue, 11 Nov 2014

Any time you see this iconic moment in pop culture - Shut up and take my money! - posted in response to a new car reveal, rumor for an upcoming model or even lip-service to a vehicle that should exist, you can bet there's some intrinsic good in the idea. Though depending on the person offering up the cash, that good could take the form of extraordinary form, functionality, weight savings, power, handling, etc. You get the idea.
In fact, when I first proposed this list, I reached out to the Autoblog staff to help me brainstorm. Here are some of the ideas they offered up that I ultimately didn't use: Jaguar XE Coupe, Pagani Huayra Roadster, Mercedes-Benz S-Class "parade car" (cabriolet), Morgan 3-Wheeler with Ducati V-twin, Ford Transit Connectamino (pickup), Mercedes CLA63 AMG, Ford Fusion 5.0, BMW i8 Spyder, Lexus RC-F Shooting Brake, Volvo XC90 Polestar. Oh, and things we collectively wanted to stick Dodge's Hellcat in were almost as numerous as models that Fiat Chrysler Automotive currently makes (though none quite so compelling as the Grand Cherokee you see above.)
Ultimately though, while I used a couple of ideas from my colleagues, the list of cars I'd shell out for unquestionably is very personal. Though it isn't complete, what follows is a selection of cars whose very existence would prompt me - or the trust-fund-baby versions of me - to utter without hesitation: "Shut up and take my money."

Chrysler investigating complaints of vehicles with faulty power modules

Sun, 24 Aug 2014

Chrysler owners are hopping mad after experiencing a series of electrical gremlins in some of the company's vehicles. Issues range from mere annoyances - windows rolling down and radios turning off of their own accord - to serious safety issues, with headlights that randomly shut off at night and cars that stall and refuse to start.
The issues are being blamed on the total integrated power module, which can cost up to $1,000 for customers to replace. This, of course, has led to a hefty batch of complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, with 240 owners expressing their displeasure so far. Another site, CarComplaints.com, has registered over 300 complaints relating to the 2010 to 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango, alone, according to The New York Times.
Chrysler has acknowledged that it's investigating the complaints and is analyzing the faulty TIPMs, but that isn't quite enough for customers of the affected vehicles. The newspaper has snagged a few of the more harrowing tales with the electrically challenged Chrysler products, culled from the NHTSA complaints.
