Used Car of the Day: 2000 Jeep Wrangler

Hey there, want a 24-year-old off-roader? This 2000 Jeep Wrangler might be the ticket.


It's a 4.0-liter with an automatic transmission and 193,000 miles on it. It has a hard top and full doors.

The paint is new and the motor is rebuilt. The seller claims the A/C blows cold and the transmission shifts smoothly.

The seller says the engine also runs well. The wheels are 20-inchers from a new Gladiator.

Check out this Texas-based rig here.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

    Isn't this the same one from a year ago?

    Amazes me that these are conceptually some of the simplest vehicles on the road and yet somehow just as problematic as anything else hailing from the communist north.

  • Honda1 It's time to deal with these punk protestors/disruptors in a more "meaningful" way. Whether it be at Tesla in Germany or any one of the schools in the US, the time has come for these professional punks to be held accountable by any means. This shyt has to stop!
  • Tassos ELON ONCE HELPED ME WITH MY COMEDY SCRIPT. WE DID GHB TOGETHER. I STAYED FOR A FEW DAYS AND FED HIS CAT ON DAY 3.
  • Medfordjim my daily driver is a 2008 Sable Premier black/black. Only 48K miles - it was my mom's Sunday car. It's got the Sync system with bluetooth. It works pretty well but will occasionally not pair when the car starts, and then it seems to take 5-10 minutes before it will rescan and find my phone.Otherwise, the only recurring issue is the solenoids that control the HVAC - I just replaced the passenger side one. I think the drivers side one failed a couple of times. Thankfully mom had the extended warranty because that side is a b*tch to fix.
  • Tassos When these were new I was still driving my DEATH TRAP TIN CAN 1991 CIVIC. It was already PAST its expiration date but any extra funds I had were going to REMEDIATING my Eastern Europe bare land purchase and trying to avoid FORECLOSURE on my Midwest shack. I wouldn’t make it out of POVERTY for another 10 years (INHERITANCES REALLY HELPED THERE). Now I am rich TASSOS driving diesel Mercedes through Eastern Europe countryside and bustling Midwest suburb.
