I bought this head-turning Grand Wagoneer from a gentleman who had just acquired it at the estate of an elderly
couple in Tucson, Arizona. If you know anything about Grand Wagoneers, you know that it is hard to find one that
doesn't look like Swiss cheese. The dry climate really protected this car's body and critical components. Since
purchasing the truck a couple of years ago, I have spared no expense in reconditioning and upgrading the vehicle to
make it a functional "daily driver". This includes:
Adding Howell fuel injection - the vehicle starts the first time every time and is noticeably more powerful
than with the stock 2BBL carburetor.
Keyless entry with remote starting - great for warming up the truck in cold winters or cooling it off in hot
summers
New A/C compressor
Flowmaster exhaust
FlowKooler water pump - in the hottest summer days, the truck runs at a perfect temperature
Alpine Bluetooth receiver with hands-free microphone
New brake rotors and pads
New window motors
New door lock actuators
New Tailgate motor
Colors are obviously a matter of personal preference, but I think that the Dark Baltic Blue on Tan is one of the
most classic color combinations available in these trucks. The plush carpeting is in great shape and I bought a
rubber custom-fit mat for the cargo area. I am reluctantly selling the truck because we recently moved and we do
not have room (or covered parking) for the truck. You could spend twice as much for a Wagonmaster truck that's
marginally nicer, or spend half as much on another truck that needs significantly more work. It's not perfect, but
I believe that this truck is as nice of a daily driver as you'll find anywhere.
Original owners manual, 1988 factory brochure, original Jensen radio all included.

Chrysler, Nissan looking into claim that their cars are industry's most hackable
Sun, 10 Aug 2014A pair of cyber security experts have awarded the ignominious title of most hackable vehicles on American roads to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, 2014 Infiniti Q50 and 2015 Cadillac Escalade.
Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek are set to release a report at the Black Hat hacking conference in Las Vegas, Automotive News reports. The two men found the Jeep, Caddy and Q50 were easiest to hack based not on actual tests with the vehicles, but a detailed analysis of systems like Bluetooth and wireless internet access - basically, anything that'd allow a hacker to remotely gain access to the vehicle's systems.
Considering this lack of hands-on testing, the pair acknowledge that "most hackable" could be a relative term - they point out that the vehicles may actually be quite secure.
Going high-tech, the 4x4 way
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Is It An Off-Road Adventure Or Just A Walk In The Park?
I remember having to get out and lock hubs and shift into neutral to engage low range.
Coming off press previews of the 2013 Land Rover Range Rover and the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee that involved some heavy-duty off-road rock climbing, I'm simply amazed at the capabilities that these vehicles possess. But even more impressive (or troubling depending on your perspective) is the relative ease with which you can operate these vehicles in seemingly impossible terrain.
Six 'shut up and take my money' cars
Tue, 11 Nov 2014Any time you see this iconic moment in pop culture - Shut up and take my money! - posted in response to a new car reveal, rumor for an upcoming model or even lip-service to a vehicle that should exist, you can bet there's some intrinsic good in the idea. Though depending on the person offering up the cash, that good could take the form of extraordinary form, functionality, weight savings, power, handling, etc. You get the idea.
In fact, when I first proposed this list, I reached out to the Autoblog staff to help me brainstorm. Here are some of the ideas they offered up that I ultimately didn't use: Jaguar XE Coupe, Pagani Huayra Roadster, Mercedes-Benz S-Class "parade car" (cabriolet), Morgan 3-Wheeler with Ducati V-twin, Ford Transit Connectamino (pickup), Mercedes CLA63 AMG, Ford Fusion 5.0, BMW i8 Spyder, Lexus RC-F Shooting Brake, Volvo XC90 Polestar. Oh, and things we collectively wanted to stick Dodge's Hellcat in were almost as numerous as models that Fiat Chrysler Automotive currently makes (though none quite so compelling as the Grand Cherokee you see above.)
Ultimately though, while I used a couple of ideas from my colleagues, the list of cars I'd shell out for unquestionably is very personal. Though it isn't complete, what follows is a selection of cars whose very existence would prompt me - or the trust-fund-baby versions of me - to utter without hesitation: "Shut up and take my money."
