2008 Jeep Wrangler on 2040-cars
Philipsburg, Pennsylvania, United States
If you have any questions or would like to view the car in person please email me at: lisabeth.feister@isonews2.com .
For sale is my 2008 Jeep Wrangler. I have many upgrades which have been well thought out before they were
installed. Yes my jeep has 37 inch tires, but it feels like the stock ride due to the higher end suspension. The
wheels DO NOT stick out past the fender flares and will pass the "quarter test" for anyone concerned about that.
There are just under 86,000 miles which is relatively low for a 2008. The 4:56 gears make for a nice highway
cruising speed... The following is what i have into,
5 BF Goodrich Mud terrain tires, Km2 650.00 x 5 = 3,250
5 Rock Star 20"x 8.5 wheels 269.95 x 5 = 1,350
Front and Rear "Re-Gearing" to 4:56 1,800
Warn 12,000lb "Power Plant" Winch/air compressor 1,800

I've added a picture of a similar jeep that sold recently in New Jersey with about $6,000 less in extra parts for
comparison.
This vehicle has only been driven through a field once! And I spent the next 4 hours cleaning the under carriage.
Other than that it has not been off roaded and never used for rock crawling The winch has been used once to pull
out my neighbor who found himself stuck in some snow. It's been used as a weekend warrior/beach vehicle (Haven't
driven it on the beach either, tho I did plan on it). I'm sure i have some other odds and ends to include on the
sad day i see this thing go. I have to see what else i have laying around. Feel free to ask any questions you
would like. This is an amazing vehicle and everything has been very well taken care of,

Chrysler reports $166M net income for Q1, down $307M vs. 2012
Mon, 29 Apr 2013Preliminary first-quarter results from 2013 have been announced by Chrysler, and the company is reporting a net income of $166 million on revenue of $15.4 billion. Compared to this period last year, net income is down $307 million and revenue has dropped $1 billion.
Chrysler says that its quarter was negatively affected by the costs associated with launching its 2013 Ram Heavy Duty, 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and preparation for the return of the all-new 2014 Jeep Cherokee pictured above. The launches should provide a strong second half of 2013, says the automaker. "We remain on track to achieve our business targets, even as the first-quarter results were affected by an aggressive product launch schedule," said Chrysler Group LLC Chairman and CEO Sergio Marchionne.
On a positive note, the automaker says worldwide vehicle sales are up 8 percent from one year ago, a number pushed by a 12 percent bump in U.S. retail sales. In addition, domestic market share has risen slightly, up to 11.4 percent from 11.2 percent last year. Read more in the official statement below.
100,000 Jeep Cherokee models subject to further 9-speed recalibration
Thu, 29 May 2014It seems that the software problems with the nine-speed automatic gearbox in the Jeep Cherokee continue to mount. The programming already caused multiple development delays and even postponed the Cherokee's market launch by roughly two months. Now, Jeep has issued another recalibration to hopefully assuage unhappy drivers.
According to Automotive News, this reflash for the allegedly jerky transmission covers over 100,000 Cherokees built before May 5, but it's not technically a recall. If owners are having problems and complain to the dealer, they get the new software. Otherwise, they continue with the current version. New vehicles on dealer lots also receive the latest revision to the programming. It takes only around five minutes to install, but technicians need to take the Cherokee on a test drive to adapt the gearbox to the changes.
The Cherokee's transmission software has been problematic practically since the beginning. The Jeep plant in Toledo, OH, briefly idled its second-shift workers last year to take care of the issue. Since the launch issues for the crossover, demand has been strong. Jeep added another 1,000 temporary workers to the Toledo factory to keep up, and sales were on par with the Wrangler in just its first two months.
Jeep Wrangler diesel likely after 2015 model refresh
Thu, 28 Feb 2013We automotive journalists aren't always the right people to ask about whether a US-spec vehicle should or should not be offered with a diesel powertrain (hint: the answer is usually "YES"). But when it comes to the iconic, off-road-ready Jeep Wrangler, we aren't the only ones who have been clamoring for an oil-burning engine behind that famous seven-slat grille. To that end, it appears there's good news on the horizon, as Jeep CEO Mike Manley recently told Ward's Auto that the "Wrangler is on the radar to get (a) diesel."
"I'm confident that the Grand Cherokee will show just how large a demand there is for diesel, and I think what that will do is reinforce the need for us to target Wrangler as a vehicle that can take a diesel," Manley told Ward's. The most rugged of Jeeps is scheduled to get an overhaul around 2015-16, and the diesel powertrain will likely be introduced around that time.
This year alone, Chrysler will be adding a diesel engine to the Grand Cherokee SUV, as well as the Ram 1500 pickup and Promaster utility van.
