[bugman1964]

It has come to a sad time where i must sell my 5.9L grand 5 months of unemployment and i cant afford the payments any more.
Some stats
pewter outside with darkgray/black leather interior no tears in the leather
all options other than 6 disc changer this includes automatic a/c and power seats.
Has bfg at ko's on it right now but will need 1 tire for sure.
bodys is in excellent shape other than standard door dings and the left rear bumper has a crack.
It has 96k on it for mileage mostly street or light trails (as in old railroad track beds)
Asking 8,000 o.b.o

sorry i missed the gas mileage post.
If ya keep the foot out of it like my wife and do mostly highway around 16.5 -18 depending on traffic mixed driving is around 14.5 to 15 and citty is around 14. but those last few numbers are with me driving. my wife was usually averaging around 15 in mixed and city.But rememebr it is full time 4wd.
It does take premium gas due to the high compression ratio.As mentioned above i hate to see it go its a fun jeep to drive i had it dynod and it made around 320 ftlb's at 1500 rpmbut i can no longer afford the payments after 4 years :rattle:

Will the 8k cover what you owe to get out from under it? What is the towing capacity. I wonder what it would take to get it to CA and smog it.

8 k is a little over what i owe but not by much the blue book value and and nada value put it between 8200-8900 depending on which one ya look at.It shouldnt take to much work to get it ca ready It does come with all smog equipment and it was registered in va for a while by me and they use rolling emissions test. a tune up is about 10k away based on mileage since i last did it.As far as getting it some where i have a connection with a transporter that charges 45 cents per mile one direction only or i could travel partial way say to moab if its in cali. or if ya want to fly in and i could pic ya up at the airport

As far as towing capacity its a class four factory hitch i think it tows just under 10,000lbs
