You are looking at a absurdly clean, rust free and unmolested Jeep Scrambler. It has been meticulously cared for and Never been off road.  It runs and drives as if it were new, All gauges work. transmission is tight and 4x4 works as it should.  The smooth running 258 Inline 6 is one of the most reliable and Jeep motors ever built. It does not smoke or leak anywhere. It starts up like a new car and idles smoothly.  This is a true survivor with only minor modifications and maintenance in amazing condition. It is not a frame off or restore but truly well kept.  The frame rust free and original paint on the frame as you would see with a 3 year old car. The dash is great, the leather seats have slight cracking but in good condition. It has custom half doors and a hard top. Soft doors in good shape go with it.  Tires have 90% tread.  A fresh tank of gas and oil change and I wouldn't hesitate to drive this across the country.  It is that good.  Don't bother low balling offers.  If you are looking at this, you know how rare Scramblers are and especially in this condition.  The odometer reads 32,500 and given the condition, may be accurate but I cannot confirm.  You will not be disappointed.  Believe me, I don't want to sell it, but I have too many toys. Do not bid unless you are ready to show up with cash in hand.  Contact me before bidding.  I am flexible on setting up a time to show and meet the shipping company if needed.  This is also for sale locally so I may end the auction early if it sells.

Maserati Levante crossover not Jeep based after all?

Thu, 20 Feb 2014

Maserati has been teasing its crossover project since 2011, which is when it first showed off the Kubang concept (pictured above). Still, the production version, rumored to be called the Levante, remains a complete mystery. The CUV was first rumored to borrow the platform from the Jeep Grand Cherokee, but new rumors indicate that the Italian, luxury crossover might actually take the underpinnings from the Quattroporte and Ghibli.
In a brief interview, Maserati CEO Harald Wester told CNN Money that the Levante wouldn't use Jeep's platform. Motor Trend spoke with an unnamed Maserati engineer who confirmed the rumor. Officially, the company says that no decision has been made.
We can add this to another long list of rumors about the Italian CUV. It was originally supposed to be built at Chrysler's Jefferson North assembly plant in Detroit. Then, plans were changed to build it in Italy.

YouTube tallies votes for this year's top five Super Bowl spots [w/video]

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

When we asked you to tell us which of this year's 16 car-themed Super Bowl commercials you liked best, you chose the Farmer commercial from Chrysler Group, advertising the Ram trucks, over Audi's Prom commercial in second place. Turns out the voters in YouTube's Ad Blitz poll agreed, voting the same commercial to the number one spot from among the field commercials in every category.
From there, however, they went in a totally different direction. Budweiser's The Clydesdales spot came second, Samsung's The Next Big Thing took third. The Jeep Whole Again ad scored fourth in the YouTube poll, fifth in our poll of auto commercials, and the Hyundai Team spot got fifth from the YouTubers, but ninth in our poll.
The voting results don't match up with the viewing numbers, though - while Farmer has more than 13 million views, The Next Big Thing is well beyond 21 million. You can read the press release below and see all five spots, lined up for you, one more time.

25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango SUVs recalled over brake feel

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

Chrysler has announced that it is recalling over 25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from several markets over concerns about brake feel under hard braking. The affected models are from the 2012 and 2013 model years, although the actual dates of production aren't available. 18,700 are in the US, while 825 are in Canada, 530 are in Mexico and a further 5,200 outside of North America.
According to a statement, Chrysler was informed of the issue by a component supplier for the Ready Alert Braking system, which primes the brakes in anticipation of an emergency stop. A component in the system was restricting the flow of brake fluid too much.
As Chrysler is quick to point out, the way the brakes functioned was in compliance with regulations and there are no reported cases of drivers losing braking power. Instead, the issue rests with what Chrysler calls a pedal feel that "was not consistent with customer expectations." So it would seem Chrysler is being proactive and fixing a problem not because there's a legal issue at work, but simply because it doesn't feel the way the manufacturer wants it to. Well done.
