1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee Description

**DO NOT BID UNLESS YOU HAVE THE MONEY AND ARE PREPARED TO BUY**
One of the best 5.9's out there. I have owned the Jeep for 2 years and have had no problems. New Battery, A/C ice cold, Excellent condition, Looks & drives great, No accidents, Title in hand, Upgraded sound system(previous owner installed second amp and car is wired for sub woofer), Very clean interior, Non-smoker. Well maintained.
Last year I drove the Jeep cross-country(around 2000 miles) and it was bulletproof.
Dealer installed and programmed(documented with dated sticker in engine compartment) MOPAR HO engine control module(ECM). Dealer installed headers and air intake. 3 inch exhaust...runs and sounds really strong.
The only problems I am aware of are that the annoying "coolant sensor bad" alert comes on the VIC from time to time. It is a common problem and can be fixed for around $100, but I just haven't had time to take it to my shop. The repair is on JeepForum.com if you are a do-it-yourselfer...it's a simple solder joint. Also the fuel sensor will twitch sometimes when you hit a bump. Other than that there is simply nothing needed with this jeep.
Only selling because I have two of these and I just do not drive them much. Call or text 210-863-7242 for any questions.

Additional info from Wikipedia:
"The 5.9L Limited (1998 only) The 5.9 Limited was a Jeep Grand Cherokee produced only for the 1998 model year, having more luxury and performance than that of the regular Limited. Chrysler manufactured nearly a quarter million Grand Cherokees in 1998. Of those, fewer than fifteen thousand were 5.9s. It housed a Magnum 5.9 L V8 engine with an output of 245 hp (183 kW) and 345 lb·ft (468 N·m) of torque, going from zero to 60 mph (100 km/h)in only 7.3 seconds[6] (Motor Trend measured this at a slightly faster 6.8 seconds[7]), making it the quickest SUV available that year. The performance of the 1998 5.9 L V8 has been surpassed by Jeep only with the introduction of the 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8, which housed a 6.1 L Hemi Engine.[8] The 5.9 Jeep Grand Cherokee was named the 1998 four-wheel drive vehicle of the year by Petersen's 4-Wheel & Off-Road magazine.[6] The 5.9 Limited was available only in Deep Slate, Stone White, and Bright Platinum"
