2014 Jeep Cherokee is Official!

Posted on by

2014 Jeep Cherokee - 01 The folks over at Jalopnik are bragging at the moment for breaking the news on the 2014 Jeep Cherokee.  Earlier today, they put out some behind the scenes leaks of the upcoming new version of the Jeep.  Since then, Jeep has confirmed that they indeed did get a scoop.

The original big unveiling date was scheduled, or at least being hinted at, for the upcoming New York Auto Show.  Jalopnik pushed up that official release date and forced their hand with releasing the first official photos.  Everyone else is jumping on the band wagon to give their two cents at the new design.

2014 Jeep Cherokee - 02The 2014 Jeep Cherokee has a new vision for the future.  This new exterior will certainly divide fans.  Jalopnik is a fan of it.  Autoblog thinks it’s going to be one of the most polarizing designs in 2014.  It’s certainly a departure with a crimped-back seven-slot grille.  The writer goes as far as to say it’s “got the makings of a design revolution.”

The Cutest Little Jeep You Ever Did See

Posted on by

Usually, when people think of Jeep, they think of the military and tough ruggedness. After seeing this Jeep listed for sale on eBay and featured over on Jalopnik, we are still in shock. Who knew that a Jeep could be so darn cute?

This 1953 Custom Willys 8X8 Overland has the typical green camouflage color and a white strip and star on the side. The interior could use a bit of work, and while it is a great restoration job by fabricator Dick Cook, pulling parts from 3 Willys Jeeps, there are plenty of great restored cars available for sale on eBay. What caught our interest was its 8 wheels, turning it from a tough Jeep into a vehicle as cute as a bug.

In their video from the eBay posting, the seller showed off all eight wheels and boasted, “There will never be another one of these…We’ve built a centipede.” You can view the full video below:

Right now, bidding for the car is at $8,705.00, though the bidding reserve has not yet been met. If you want to check out the bidding or see more pictures of this adorable Jeep, head over to the eBay posting here.
