Used Car of the Day: 2000 Jeep Wrangler

by Tim Healey

Published: March 13th, 2024

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

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.

Any sound that Winston made, above the level of a very low whisper, would be picked up by it; moreover, so long as he remained within the field of vision which the metal plaque commanded, he could be seen as well as heard. There was of course no way of knowing whether you were being watched at any given moment. " --- 1984
Kjhkjlhkjhkljh kljhjkhjklhkjh ""The 10L1000 transmissions are built by GM and vetted by Allison"" .. ewww for tranny? your not losing anything killing the brandingThe term "10L1000" refers to the Allison 10L1000 10-speed automatic transmission, used in 2020 and newer heavy-duty GM Silverado and Sierra trucks with the Duramax 6.6L diesel engine. It is a heavily modified version of a jointly developed Ford/GM 10-speed platform, engineered by Ford with Allison branding and designed to handle increased torque and offer better fuel economy compared to its predecessor, the 6-speed Allison 1000.
Wantahertzdonut Among my parent's friends (all engineer/teacher couples), they were friends with one couple that stood out because they were legitimately cool people. They had a 900 and I'll never forget getting a ride back from dinner on hilly roads in western NY in 1989. Everyone else had some rusty penalty box of a car, but that Saab proved to me then there's more to life than practical cars.
