Up for sale is my 1997 Jeep Cherokee Sport. I picked it up about one year ago, and I am the second owner. Before I
bought the vehicle there was hardly any work done on it, other than a motor swap. From what I was told by the last
owner there was a knock in the motor at about 138k miles; and it needed to be replaced, so a motor out of a Jeep
Cherokee with 78k miles on it was installed in this vehicle. I picked up this vehicle because of the interior
condition. Out of all the other Jeeps I had viewed, this one was by far the best one. I have maintained it in its
condition since I picked it up.
My original intention was to make this a rock crawler and to eventually do a motor swap to either a stroked 4.6l I6
or an LS1 conversion. My reason for selling it is that I have run out of time (never patience) on the car and I
don’t drive it as much as I would like to. I would like to see it go into someone’s hands that appreciates the
off-road or to a Jeep enthusiast.
I had a trusted shop in town do all of the major work on it, but for the little things I decided to tackle the
project myself. All of the parts on the vehicle are less than a year old, and installed about 7k miles ago. I hate
to say it, but this vehicle hasn't seen as much the off-road as I would have liked.
Full Disclosure:
· Interior is in good shape 9/10
· Exterior is in okay shape 7/10
· Tire tread is at 70%, spare has not been used.
· Exterior does have some hail damage from before I bought it, nothing major.
· Exterior has paint blemish on front fender near hood. (can provide picture)
· Exterior has scratch on rear by the tailgate that is exposed down to the metal.
· Exhaust is starting to rust, which is why I will be providing a new Flowmaster Exhaust kit. (can provide
pictures)
· Paint started to peel just below the driver’s door, on the rocker panel.
· I recently was chasing an ignition issue, which was from the fuel pump giving out. (everything was addressed at
the local Chrysler dealership)
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask me.

There are several modifications on this Jeep, so I might have missed some. I believe I got the majority of them.
Keep in mind everything from the ground up to the chassis has been replaced.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley 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:

Watch this 650-hp Hennessey Jeep Grand Cherokee go from 0-60 in 3.9 seconds

Tue, 14 May 2013

Hennessey Performance Engineering has created an HPE650 package for the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT fitted with the 6.4-liter Hemi engine. When it leaves the showroom floor it has 470 horsepower and gets from 0-60 miles per hour in 4.8 seconds. When it leaves Hennessey's garage floor after the upgrade it has 650 horsepower - 530 hp at the wheels, according to Hennessey - and gets to 60 mph in 3.9 seconds on its way to running the quarter-mile in 12.6 seconds.
There's more than just a Roots-type supercharger bolt-on, with ported cylinder heads and high-flow headers among the many changes made to the engine. You can watch this pre-2014 facelift silver model prove its spec sheet on the drag strip in the video below.

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Choose 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.
