1973 Jeep Commando Automatic 4wd Soft Top on 2040-cars
Cary, North Carolina, United States
This is a newly-restored 1973 Jeep Commando. These are super rare and this one is the last year these were made. The engine is a reliable, peppy inline 6cyl 4.2L 258ci , with a rare 3 speed Automatic (yes, automatic!) with a strong and properly working Dana 20 4WD transfer case/shifter that's as smooth as glass. Newer Carter carb, new tires, new "dog dish" hubcaps, brand new custom professionally done seats, door panels and dash. New Rhino lined floor, new muffler, coil, new intake manifold.
It's one of a kind: The soft top just re-dyed in white that rolls up on the sides and back or removes completely for those nice sunny days.
This is just a COOL vehicle and great around-town transportation. Anywhere you go -- it's a real head-turner. These are as popular but easier to drive and service than the Scout II, Chevy Blazer or Ford Bronco, and certainly more unique. And it's a Jeep!
Runs like a top, and is a 4WD that works perfectly with all new Mile Marker locking hubs. Everything works including the speedometer. I have all current receipts. I also have its ENTIRE history from the DMV -- all the way back to its original sale in February of 1973 to a family near Winston-Salem, NC. This is a very clean and rock-solid vehicle that will surely keep its value. I am selling locally and on other forums so I reserve the right to remove this ad at any time.

Jeep leads list of 25 most patriotic brands
Thu, 04 Jul 2013It's not unusual to feel extra patriotic this time of year, what with the Fourth of July being today and all. As if to celebrate, New York-based research firm Brand Keys conducted a study among 4,500 consumers about what brands they find to be the most patriotic. According to the Detroit Free Press, Jeep took top honors in this study, besting other American stalwart brands including Coca-Cola, Levi's and Hershey's.
Interestingly, the only other automotive brand to make the list was Ford, in the 16th spot (motorcycle fans take note - Harley-Davidson claimed the No. 13 slot). This means consumers found Jeep to be more patriotic than any of the brands in the General Motors portfolio, including Chevrolet, which has long used American themes in its advertising over the decades.
According to Brand Keys, Jeep came in "with a score of 98 out of 100 on a scale representing consumers' emotional engagement expectations," the Detroit Free Press reports. Be sure to read the report to scan the entire Top 25 list for yourself.
2014 Jeep Cherokee gets official in a hurry
Fri, 22 Feb 2013Automakers work very, very hard to keep their new vehicles under wraps until they can present them in exactly the way they want it - typically choreographed under the bright lights of an auto show, or perhaps with photos or video in an idyllic location. Spy shooters and leaks, in other words, keep executives and public-relations types up at night.
This is likely to be one of the most polarizing designs to come out in 2014.
Take today, for instance, when the team over at Jalopnik got a big scoop - the first undisguised shots of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, a model whose name wasn't even officially confirmed yet. The clandestine images taken inside of a factory were blurry and didn't exactly show off the crossover's radical new contours in the same sort of flattering light that Jeep probably would've wished for its product reveal. So the Auburn Hills automaker has wisely reacted by spilling at least some of the beans on the new model, giving us these four photos and confirming the Liberty replacement's name, Cherokee.
Chrysler to accelerate production of 2013 Ram and V6 engines
Fri, 16 Nov 2012Chrysler is adding a third shift at its Warren Truck plant to meet demand for the new 2013 Ram pickup. And with tight supplies of its Pentastar V6, the company is also boosting output at its Mack Engine plant.
The expansions will add 1,250 jobs and are part of a $238 million investment by Chrysler in the Detroit area. Warren's third shift will begin work sometime in the spring, a Chrysler rep told Automotive News. Mack's increased Pentastar production a could include both 3.6 and 3.2-liter engines.
The company says it also plans to invest $40 million in its Trenton Engine plant to allow for production of a 3.2-liter V6 as well as the Tigershark inline-four for the upcoming Jeep Liberty replacement.
