jakeWI Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Hey guys, I am testing the waters for a possible trade of my DD for another jeep. I don't need to sell it, but I do like jeeps. I have a 2000 Mercury Sable LS 153,xxx - changes daily because its my DD 3.0 24v DOHC Automatic Power windows, Locks, Drivers seat, Sun Roof Cruise control Leather Keyless Entry multi disc cd changer/cassette/radio Nice big trunk Maroon-ish, dark red in color Good Tires and brakes Easily averaging 25+ MPG Brand new battery, MAF sensor and a cooling line this year. Should have receipts for all of those especially because they are obviously under warranty. Bad: Some rust under the stupid plastic rocker covers. Floor looks good though. Check engine light. Thought it was MAF sensor, but already replaced. So it also would be O2 sensor/s. Low coolant light is on. It came on when I had to replace the coolant line. Just never reset it. Has a rough idol and or will kill at stops. I have just been keeping my foot on the brake and touching the gas to keep it from happening. KBB at FAIR, bottom price, is $2900 Looking to trade for a jeep: Let me know what you have, with pictures and maybe I'll bite. Jeep Comanche - low to no rust, 4x4, preferably a 1991 with HO or 4cyl Jeep Cherokee - No rust, 4x4, HO or 4cyl Jeep YJ - 4x4, good shape Nothing with 250,000 plus mileage. No projects. I will get pictures if someone is truly interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jakeWI Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 If you feel your trade isn't worth it, just try me first as long as it comes close to what I was looking for. To be honest, I don't mind trading straight up without any money involved. So even if I get a slightly less of the trade, but its something I feel I wouldnt mind, I'll do it.

jakeWI Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 I took it into the dealership tonight to diagnose any issues to at least give some more specific answers on any issue with the car. That way I can at least answer anyone better with said issues above. Like I said as well, I would consider trading for something less in value even up just to get another jeep. I am looking for something in the value range of $1000-$3000 depending on what jeep and condition. Weather it be a woody XJ or newer, YJ or MJ. Not really sure on exactly I would be looking for, so just run it by me. You may be surprised. Also, thinking about it, I would consider a willys flatfender PROJECT or complete as a trade. If you are thinking about an outright sale (cash), PM me. Might consider if it doesnt get traded soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakeWI Posted December 5, 2012 Author Share Posted December 5, 2012 Well I posted it on CL for a cash price. Figured I would post it for trade in value. The issues I listed above were diagnosed. Check Engine Light/Rough Idle/Stalls at Stop: 2 PCV hoses. Dealership said $182 installed. Which can obviously be done cheaper yourself. Low Coolant Light: Bad Sensor. Dealership Said $262 installed. Do it yourself or just deal with the light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
