Pennsville, New Jersey, United States

The body is in good condition.  It does have several dings and a few dents and scratches.  The body is rust free and the frame is in good shape.  The transmission was rebuilt a few thousand miles ago.  It has 4 tires with less than 10,000 miles on them.  The battery is about 18 months old.  The interior is in good shape.  The driver side seat does have a tear in it.  The power seats work.  The power windows work.  The rear tailgate glass works.  The power locks don't always work properly.  I checked it on Carfax when I bought it and it hasn't been in any accidents.  The lower sections of both passenger side doors were repainted while it was still in Arizona.  I don't know what happened, maybe someone rubbed the them against something.  I replaced all the door seals a couple of years ago.  The driver side door needs to be adjusted, as it will leak when you are washing it.  I have a cover for it, which will be included.  The clear coat is coming off in several areas.  The hood ornament is broken off, but I have the broken piece and will include it.

It had been a great truck.  I was driving it the other day, when I lost oil pressure and got a terrible clattering from under the hood.  My mechanic is telling me the engine needs to be rebuilt, which I just don't have the money for at this time.  I'd rather see the truck go to someone that can use it, then having it go to the scrap yard and be crushed.

The truck is from Arizona originally.  It was purchased by a guy in Maryland about 8 years ago and I bought it from him 6-7 years ago.

The vehicle is being sold AS IS.  It is to be considered non-running, although the engine will turn over and it will move (I'm not recommending this and I won't be moving it any further).   If you have access to an engine, everything else you need is right here.

I will not ship the vehicle.  You will need to pick it up no later then August 10, 2014.  I require a $500 deposit via PayPal within 48 hours of auction close.  If you don't send the deposit within 48 hours, I will re-list and report you to eBay.  Any remaining balance will be due in cash when you pick up the truck.

If you have any questions,  please contact me.  I will try to have an answer back to you as soon as possible.

Marchionne: Midsize pickup still not in the cards; Ram 1500, Jeep Wrangler could use aluminum

Wed, 07 May 2014

During the Fiat-Chrysler briefings on Tuesday, Reid Bigland, head of Ram Trucks, outlined the new product plans for his brand, including confirmation that an all-new light-duty Ram 1500 will launch in 2017. From there, discussions spun off in two directions, with the main questions being: will Ram build a midsize pickup? And, following Ford's move to extensively use aluminum in its new 2015 F-150, will Chrysler be using this weight-saving material for the next round of its fullsize truck, as well?
"I think there is room for a Ram 1000," Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne (pictured above) told members of the media, saying this is a conversation the automaker has been having internally for several years now. "We've tried this ... we've actually taken it to clinics," Marchionne stated, adding that the "response has been lukewarm."
"I have better use of aluminum in this house than a pickup truck." - Sergio Marchionne

Consumer Reports digs Mazda3, disses Jeep Cherokee

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

Consumer Reports has just rendered its verdict on two of the more important cars to launch this year - the Mazda3 and the Jeep Cherokee. Considering the value a "Recommended" rating carries with the public and the viciously competitive markets these two cars compete in, Consumer Reports' view could have some impact on their initial success.
For Mazda, that's a good thing. CR spoke quite highly of the Zoom-Zoom brand's compact sedan and hatch, testing both models, and citing the excellent fuel economy and snickety-snack manual shifter as high points. Downsides to the 3 included a ride that is agile but "nervous," a bit too much noise and a cramped back seat. Still, the 3 was good enough to earn its place in the ranks of the "Recommended."
The Jeep didn't fare quite so well, with CR calling the polarizing CUV "half-baked." Although both engines were tested, the magazine called the 2.4-liter four-pot underpowered and its nine-speed automatic unrefined and unresponsive. That's particularly damning, considering the 9AT's role in future Chrysler products, including the extremely important 200. Overall, the Cherokee missed out on the coveted "Recommended" rating.

NHTSA closes investigation into Jeep Liberty fires

Sun, 16 Mar 2014

The investigation that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened into the Jeep Liberty in October 2013 has been closed. NHTSA received two (!) complaints about fires starting in the driver's door, thought to be caused by the master power window switch. The initial estimate was that 80,000 Libertys could be roped into a possible recall, but according to a report in the Detroit News the agency examined records for 425,000 Chrysler products that used the same window switch, including the Dodge Nitro and Chrysler Town & Country minivan.
After canvassing 265 warranty claims related to the master switches, NHTSA concluded that the rate of fires compared to the "large population of vehicles" was rather low, and that there was no trend pattern behind the few issues it did find. Perhaps with that, and the closure of the trailer hitch investigation, the Liberty can finally rest in peace.
