One-of-a-kind! 2008 Jeep Wrangler Sahara Jk on 2040-cars
Colorado Springs, Colorado, United States
|
This is a unique, one-of-a-kind deal; don't miss it! I purchased this Jeep in February 2013 from a Denver area dealer. I was told that the person who traded it in, purchased a new Wrangler from them and that he was a repeat customer. The salesman knew the man and indicated that the Jeep had never been off road, and I have never taken it off road. Having said that, here are the unique details and upgrades:
OEM options included: 2008 Jeep Wrangler Sahara JK 60,851 "road miles", Clean CarFax, 3.8 V-6, PS, PB, A/C, PW, PL, Automatic 4-speed with O.D., Traction and Stability Control, ABS, Tilt Steering Wheel, Dual Airbags, Privacy Glass, Running Boards, Towing Package, New Spare Tire, Cruise Control, AM/FM/SAT, CD, Navigation System, Removable Hardtop and Remote Start Now, here are the additional goodies since I have owned it: 2008 Jeep Wrangler Sahara “Extras” 1)

“roll up” windshield sun shade ($39.00) – 2013 That’s $3,756.00 in improvements
not counting extensive under hood and cabin billet, nor the five extra tires
and wheels and four additional unmounted tires!! Note: When you wear out the
current set of tires, put the other OEM set on and then swap out the worn tires for a set of winter (studded?) snow and ice tires. I would estimate the
value of all the additional tires and wheels at least $950.00, and all the
billet enhancements at $350.00. That makes
my overall investment in after-market parts and installation services at $5,056.00!!
The Kelly Blue Book on this Jeep with its included OEM features is $22,094 in excellent condition. My added improvements and wheels/tires is conservatively valued at $5,056 for a combined value of $27,150. My Buy-It-Now price is only $23,999!!

Auto critic calls out Corvette, Mustang and Cherokee faithful
Mon, 26 Aug 2013Most automotive purists fear change, but not without reason. Change, after all, did kill big-block V8s, along with most station wagons and manual transmissions. But change has also brought with it far more performance, safety and fuel economy - not to mention ridding the world of shag carpet interiors, bias-ply tires and those horrible motorized seatbelts of the early '90s.
By this time next year, the Chevy Corvette, Jeep Cherokee and next-generation Ford Mustang will all be on sale and will all, in some way, have angered or offended purists. To those critics, Mark Phelan of the Detroit Free Press is preemptively telling them to stop complaining - at least until they've all been driven. From the Corvette's square taillights and the Cherokee's radical nose to whatever pony car purists will harp on the 2015 Mustang for, Phelan's column points out the positives of automotive evolution and the negatives of staying the course for too long. That's fair enough, but do you think Phelan is on point, or all wet? Head on over to the Detroit Free Press to read his words, then have your say in Comments.
2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Choose Your Own Adventure... But Choose Wisely
Jeep has got you covered. We can say this without even having to know what it is you want, because there's hardly an option or configuration that you won't find in the 2014 Grand Cherokee. There are three different engines, three different four-wheel-drive systems (plus rear-wheel drive), four different trim levels - not counting SRT - two different suspension setups and five different settings for various off-road terrain conditions. If you happen to check the box for Quadra-Lift, you'll also have five different ride-height settings for the driver-selectable air suspension.
As you might expect with so many customization possibilities, the way a buyer checks the options sheet can have a profound effect on the final product and its capabilities, to say nothing of its price. Nowhere is that more true than with the Grand Cherokee's choice of engines, with the brand-new 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V6 stealing the spotlight from the still excellent gasoline-fueled 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and 5.7-liter Hemi V8 powerplants that carry over from last year. No matter which engine you choose, though, it will be paired up with Jeep's new standard eight-speed automatic transmission from ZF. This, ladies and gentlemen, is very good news indeed.
Jeep Wrangler Copper Crawler is our idea of a restrained Mopar shopping spree
Thu, 07 Nov 2013According to a recent report, the Jeep Wrangler is the most popular SUV for customization, and this is backed up by the fact that the iconic off-roader was just named the Hottest 4x4-SUV at SEMA for the fourth year in a row. Looking for ways to keep its customers in-house rather than going aftermarket, Jeep and Mopar are always teaming to offer exciting new parts and pieces for the JK Wrangler.
Compared to most other Wranglers on display at SEMA - as well as other Chrysler Mopar SEMA concepts - the Jeep Wrangler Copper Crawler is surprisingly reserved, but should be no less exciting for owners to give their Wrangler a distinctive look. Starting off with an eye-catching copper paint scheme, the Jeep then goes on a Mopar catalog shopping spree with its matte black grille, black beadlock wheels, two-inch lift, Rubicon bumper (with a winch and aero end caps up front) and rocker panel and taillight guards.
Jeep also upgraded the Wrangler's transfer case for low-speed rock crawling (hence the vehicle's name) and cold-air intake for extra measure.
