Filed under: Diesel , Chrysler , Jeep Based on the presentation by Paolo Ferrero at the Chrysler business plan meeting in Auburn Hills today, it sure sounds like diesel is back in the picture at Chrysler. Prior to the Daimler-Chrysler divorce, there were lots of plans for diesel installations in U.S.-market Chryslers. That all fell by the wayside during the Cerberus era. Ferraro, the new SVP of powertrain...

By George Jonas You should really think well before you decide to buy a once used jeep. The first thing you should look into before you decide to buy is to study the brand of the vehicle and the vehicle itself thoroughly. Initially, before you decide to buy a jeep first get a clear picture of what you are exactly looking for. I really have a fascination for all kinds of jeeps and let me inform you...
Let's say you work for the Children's Museum of Pittsburgh and someone donates a 1983 Jeep Grand Wagoneer. What do you do with it? Well, for whatever reasons, using the vehicle, which makes the most sense, was not among the options being considered by the museum folks. To make a long story short, they chose to call in artist Keny Marshall to...
Artist Keny Marshall deconstructed his 1983 Jeep Grand Wagoneer, and reconstructed it into a ball, naming his project “reCARstruction.” This piece of art has been created for the Children’s Museum at Pittsburgh. Checkout the time lapse video...
Not sure what to do with that old gas guzzler? How about turning it into a giant ball? That's what artist Keny Marshall did with this 1983 Jeep Grand Wagoneer. There aren't any build instructions, but you should be able to figure it out from the construction video. It's probably not street legal any more, but it will get you from place to place, as long as you want to go downhill. Read more | Permalink...
There will always be something special about the Jeep Grand Wagoneer that keeps the original Sport Utility Vehicle entrenched firmly on our list of truly iconic American automobiles. Somehow, despite the old-school design and fake wood paneling, the GW manages to look both classy and capable at once. It looks to be in good shape inside and out, as it should with just over 43,000 miles showing on the...
What we love about this 1987 Jeep Grand Wagoneer is not that it’s stretched by several feet, nor that it’s actually a functioning limousine, it’s that it was done rather tastefully (we’ll grant the directional billet wheels): It looks like if AMC, in its last throes as a functioning company, built one of their junior [...]
AMC may be long gone, and Fiat owns the Jeep brand nowadays, but classic AMC ads will never die! There's a good cross-section of Kenosha advertising style here, from the 60s muscle cars and penny-pinching economy sedans to the Malaise Era favorites and into the Members Only 80s. When you're done here, you might enjoy our favorite VW ads , then continue your car-advertising overdose with the Datsun...
The Jeep Compass, introduced in 2007, marked a new direction for the Jeep brand. The Compass is the first Jeep based on a car chassis (in this case, the Dodge Caliber). In other words, you are not going to find a “Trail Rated” badge. Jeep purists may be bitter that such a car wears the [...]
By Paul Vazquez The Jeep Wrangler is the most suitable vehicle to use if you are planning to storm the very hot desert dunes and pave your way through murky forest trails. Most car critics may have pointed some imperfections in the Jeep Wranglers overall features such as boisterous engine and awkward seats. But nevertheless, no other 4x4, or any other vehicle for that matter, can bring the experience...
As if the death of a somewhat troublesome Maserati BiTurbo wasn't bad enough, a dealership in Bloomington, Indiana is preparing to execute this supremely reliable 1989 Jeep Wagoneer V6 4x4 with just 67K on the odometer. According to our tipster, this Jeep is in good condition with a clean title, minimal rust, and good tires. A little detail work and it would be a classic cruiser. Alas, we know its...
