Xj Cherokee Supercharged Lift Jeep Truck-lite on 2040-cars

Year:1999 Mileage:197500
Location:

Dallas, Texas, United States

Dallas, Texas, United States

This has been my daily driver for the past 7 years. I bought it with 112,000 miles on it and it now has 197,500 on it. Still runs great, but growing family needed a suburban, so it has been replaced as my daily driver.

Here's what has been done to it during my ownership.

1) Yella Terra 1.7:1 roller rocker arms
2) Boostec Supercharger w/Split Second FTC1 Fuel/Timing controller (will come with a little laptop with the split sec programming software on it so you can mess with the tune if you want, but I have it dialed in)
3) Truck-lite LED headlights
4) Dynomax cat-back exhaust
5) New 3-row all metal CSF radiator
6) New air conditioning compressor (a/c works great and blows very cold)
7) New brown dog rubber motor mounts
8) Transgo SK340 reprogramming kit with 1st gear hold feature programmed for shorter/firmer shifts
9) B&M 14,400 but 70264 transmission cooler
10) Powertrax no-slip rear synchronized locker, includes two additional spring kits. (although never mudded, I've taken the jeep hunting and have never gotten it stuck)
11) Rough Country 2" lift
12) Late model Rubicon Shocks
13) Banks Power Torque Tube exhaust header
14) Brand new Yokohama tires (235/75-R15) with less than 3,000 miles on them. 
15) Brand new front end. Tie rod ends, ball joints, steering damper, brake rotors, drag link, etc... This jeep does NOT suffer from the dreaded death wobble so many old XJ's do.
16) 6 x Bosch 784 injectors with the 4 holes vs. 1 hole for better atomization and fuel economy.
17) Remote start connected to factory keyless entry (two clicks of the lock button results and remote start with 15 minute automatic idle, great for cold mornings when you want to climb into a warm truck)

The jeep has the factory tow hitch and trailer light plug, has the overhead console with outside temp, fuel economy and compass. I wouldn't hesitate to drive this thing across country. It will also come with all the original intake, power steering and exhaust parts so that the supercharger could be removed if so desired and returned to factory specs.

Jeep Twitter account hacked, bad language, poor grammar and some hilarity ensue

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

Just a day after Burger King's Twitter account was compromised by "unauthorized users," Jeep's social media feed has been similarly hacked. Both instances of digital incursion share some similarities - the BK hackers changed the company's logo for McDonald's familiar golden arches, saying a sale had occurred, while the Jeep miscreants have replaced Jeep's branding with that of General Motors property Cadillac.
The resulting tweets from the damaged Jeep account have been a pretty brutal, to put it bluntly. Most of the content coming from the hacked account is unpublishable here, using language that is peppered with racial epithets, and poorly worded "shout outs."
In addition to the defamatory tweets themselves, the hackers have significantly altered the layout of the page. Jeep's header image now features a picture of the Cadillac ATS to go along with the Wreath and Crest, some language calling out that car as winning the 2013 North American Car of the Year award, and this gem: "The official Twitter handle for the Jeep(R) - Just Empty Every Pocket, Sold To Cadillac =[" Also, perhaps in an ode to yesterday's Burger King heist, the background image for the page now features a McDonald's-themed donk. The devil's in the details, we guess.

Australian Jeep marketing stunt goes awry [w/video]

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

Jeep fans in Australia are none too happy with the off-road brand following a contest that saw ten new Cherokees sold for just $10,000 Australian (about $9,400), roughly a quarter of the vehicle's price Down Under.
The contest, called the "World's Most Remote Dealership," gave Aussies the chance to snag an ultra-affordable Cherokee Longitude (analogous to the US-spec Latitude trim), provided they could get to a secret dealership in the remote wilderness of western New South Wales, near the border with the state of South Australia.
In order to get the exact location of the dealership, though, potential customers needed to download an app, which would release a phone number 9:00 AM AEST on Thursday (7:00 PM EDT, Wednesday night). The first ten people who could call in and prove they could afford to finance $10,000 and get to the remote dealership, were given the location of the remote dealership.

Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
