Up for auction is a very nice 1990 Jeep Grand Wagoneer. There were only 6,449 Grand Wagoneers produced in the 1990 model year, which was the next to last year of production. The 1989-1991 model years are considered the best due to improvements that Chrysler made after buying AMC/JEEP in 1987.
I purchased the Jeep in the spring 2013 and had it shipped from Georgia to New Jersey. I have invested a lot of money in it and was planning to enjoy it for a long time, but due to a new job and some financial issues, I have decided to sell it. It has been a lot of fun driving it around town this summer and getting stopped all the time to ask questions about it, everyone loves this Jeep and always says "I haven't seen one of these in a long time!" I am not a car "flipper" and will certainly not break even on what I have spent. Here are the details:
- 112,600 miles
- Georgia vehicle, I purchased it in spring 2013, it has never seen a northern winter
- NO RUST - rust is the common enemy of these vehicles
- Sand Metallic Exterior with Sand interior
- 360 2V V8, 3 speed automatic transmission
- 4WD (works)
- Air Cond (blows ice cold)
- Power Windows (all work, including rear window using key or dash switch)
- Power Locks (work)
- Power Seats (work)
- Power Steering and Brakes
- Power mirrors (work)
- Tilt Wheel
- Leather Seats
- Original thick carpet
- Original floor mats (drivers side shows a lot of wear)
- Factory ROL fog lights with black "Jeep" covers (very hard to find these now)
- Haynes Service Manual
- Original Owner's Manual
- Cargo cover - not in great shape but works
- 3 sets of keys
- Jeep key chain
Below is a list of the work that has been done on the Jeep in the last few months:
- Replaced valve cover gaskets
- Replaced intake manifold gaskets
- Replaced Transfer Case Seal
- Replaced Right Rear Axle Shaft Bearing Seal
- Replaced Power Steering Gear Box
- Replaced Power Steering Pump and hoses
- Replaced fog lamp switch

- New Pioneer AM/FM HD radio CD player (original radio had already been removed)
- All four wheels professionally refinished
- All new seat belts professionally installed by a top interior shop in Northern NJ, including rear shoulder belts purchased from Wagoneer World (I did this so could have a child seat in the back). This was an option in 1990 but few purchased them!
- New interior kick plates installed
- New hood insulation pad
Based on service records, the following work was also done on the Jeep:
- New Engine - 110K miles (2006)
- New Radiator - 110K miles (2006)
- New fan shroud and gaskets - 110K miles (2006)
The last owner of the Jeep purchased it in 2006 and only drove it about 2,000 miles, as he owns several collector cars including other Grand Wagoneers. The Jeep starts up well and runs nicely. The cruise control, rear wiper, and compass/temperature gauge in the overhead console do not work. Replaced valve cover gaskets and intake manifold gaskets due to oil leaks. Still leaks a couple of drops, may be rear main seal, a common problem for these Jeeps. Two mechanics have said it is not a big deal at this time. The paint is good and still shines, but there are several scratches and nicks and chips, which can be seen in the pictures. I would have it repainted if I were keeping it, I was quoted $1,800 for a 2-stage repaint by a top auto body shop in Northern NJ that has done quality for me in the past. The original wood trim is in decent shape, as is the vinyl wood tape, but there are scrapes and scratches. The bumpers are ok, have a lot of scratches, I would have them refinished if I was keeping the Jeep. The bumper rubber is all there, has scratches and cuts in it.
Vehicle is sold as is, where is, without warranty. Pick up or shipping arrangements are the responsibility of the buyer. I can hold the Jeep for a couple of weeks after payment, while shipping is arranged, if necessary. If there is anything else you would like a picture of please email me through eBay.
You are welcome to inspect the vehicle before the auction ends. It is located in Northern NJ about 1 hour from NYC. Any questions, please email me through eBay and I will be happy to answer.
$500 non-refundable deposit due via PayPal within 24 hours of auction ending, remaining due via Bank Cashiers/Certified check within 7 days.
I have set a fair reserve based on what these Jeeps are selling for on eBay. I will not disclose the reserve and will not end the auction early. The Jeep is NOT for sale locally, I intend to sell it on eBay if the reserve is met. Thank you for looking.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards
Tue, 27 Nov 2012Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
Marchionne uses racial epithet to describe what must power future Alfa Romeo models
Wed, 16 Jan 2013Sergio Marchionne and his Fiat empire have a lot riding on the US return of the Alfa Romeo brand. The endeavor has been in progress for what feels like a lifetime - certainly for as long as Fiat has had the Chrysler brand under its Italian wing.
It's not surprising that Fiat CEO Marchionne needs a perfect first Alfa to mark a return to America. And here's where things get dicey. Nobody would argue with Marchionne's insistence that Alfa Romeo's be powered by Italian engines - as Marchionne himself is quoted to have said at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, "There are some things that are well done in Italy."
If not what he said, then, it's how he said it that has eyebrows raised. "I cannot come up with a schlock product, I just won't. I won't put an American engine into that car. With all due respect to my American friends, it needs to be a wop engine." Wait, what's that?
2014 Jeep Cherokee: June 2014
Wed, 09 Jul 2014I got a text message from Editor-In-Chief Sharon Carty one afternoon proclaiming that her new favorite SUV is our long-term 2014 Jeep Cherokee. And she's not alone. I'm not sure if anyone else on staff would go so far as to use the "favorite" descriptor, but after just over a month of honeymooning with our new long-termer, it's safe to say that the Jeep is quickly finding its way into the good graces of a number of Autoblog staffers.
There's good reason for all that praise, too. Thus far, the Jeep has proven itself to be incredibly competent and comfortable for daily life - it's functional, quiet, and packed with a host of amenities that make it easy to live with. It's been wholly trouble-free (with less than 4,000 miles on the clock as of this writing, it ought to be), but even nitpicks have been few and far between.
