Jeep’s CJ series was born out of the need to keep in business. Willys-Overland knew that since World War II was ending, so would their lucrative military contract for Jeeps. So, they created the Civilian Jeep – CJ, get it? It was meant for usage that was even tougher than a battlefield. This meant use at the hands of farmers, construction workers, manufacturing facility operators and other harsh environments, for years on end, with minimal maintenance and often driven hard too. The CJ was made across several iterations from 1944 to 1986 before giving rise to a familiar name – Wrangler. Yes, the Jeep Wrangler can directly trace its lineage to the CJ series, and the resemblance is uncanny too. Here, we have a 1986 Jeep CJ-7 for sale from Henderson, Nevada. This fine machine comes with the 350ci Chevrolet V8, a reupholstered interior and a decent 104,953 miles on the odometer.
When Willys-Overland created the Jeep back in 1944, they envisioned it to be a tough agricultural tool, not the off-road sensation that it is today. World War II was ending and the company knew that very soon, the military wouldn’t be ordering Jeeps like pizza anymore. They had to change tactics, and they pivoted towards the civilian market. CJ stands for Civilian Jeep in fact. The CJ series ran until 1986 when an even more famous name replaced it – Wrangler! Yes, this is where your Wrangler gets its heritage from. If you’re interested in adding to the family, or a fan of classic Jeeps, we have a nice 1976 Jeep CJ-7 for sale from Atlanta. It’s got just over 77,000 miles on it and comes with the Renegade decal package plus an aftermarket Kenwood head unit. Moreover, it’s got an automatic gearbox, making it ideal for those who can’t remember or never learned how to drive stick.
The original Military Jeep by Willys-Overland morphed into the Jeep CJ series by 1944, and the Jeep brand as we know it was born. Produced until 1986, the CJ subsequently became the Wrangler, and you can definitely see the resemblance between the two models. Interestingly, the CJ was born out of a need to stay commercially relevant. With World War II coming to an end, Willys-Overland knew that the military would no longer need Jeeps in the massive numbers that they were consuming them during wartime. A military Jeep in a battlefield would have a lifespan of weeks or, at best, months – not years and decades. So, they came up with the CJ or Civilian Jeep, targeted primarily at the agricultural sector but in no time, other segments and enthusiastic off-roaders were snapping them up as well. The CJ went through many upgrades and iterations, with the CJ-7 ruling the Jeep roost between 1976 and 1986. Today, we’ve got a Kansas-based 1985 Jeep CJ-7 for sale. This vehicle has received a comprehensive makeover and packs under 5,000 miles since then. Highlights include a custom fiberglass body, a reupholstered interior, an aftermarket audio player and so much more.
Whatever happened to Jeep’s famous CJ or Civilian Jeep series from 1948 until 1986? Well, you see, it became the Wrangler! Yes, that’s why the two have some serious commonalities in terms of not only styling, but sheer off-road ability. The Wrangler nameplate took over in 1986, with some comprehensive re-engineering, but the basic principles have remained true to this day. That’s why today’s 1997 Jeep Wrangler Sport is a formidable off-road buddy to have. It’s got 118,000 miles and hails from Wichita, Kansas. Plus, it’s part of the TJ or second generation, which came for the 1997 model year.
The Jeep Gladiator is a pickup truck based on Jeep’s popular Wrangler off-roader. Thanks to being heavily based on the Wrangler, this midsize pickup truck looks much the same as its sibling from the front three quarters, comes with the same powertrain choices, and the same off-road hardware too. But it swaps the rear cargo compartment for a five-foot truck bed. That’s all well and good for most, but what if you want a Wrangler with some serious capabilities in case, you know, the world ends as we know it? That’s where a build like this 2023 Jeep Gladiator Apocalypse Hellfire 6x6 enters the scene. Built by SoFlo Customs, this mean machine is up for grabs in Utah with just 1,710 miles. It’s got a 3.0-liter turbodiesel, a custom leather interior and more. Oh, and it’s a true 6x6, meaning all six wheels are powered!
Jeep’s Gladiator offers all those fun features of the Wrangler such as the removable doors and roof in a midsize pickup truck package. Yes, for those who need a Jeep with a cargo bed, this American off-roader maker has got you covered. The current generation of Gladiator is the JT which was sold from 2020 onwards, based on the Wrangler JL which preceded it by one model year. Today’s Gladiator is no regular one, though. It’s a 2022 Jeep Gladiator Hellcat Powered AMW 707 with the AMW 707 Hellcat conversion package. That includes a monster 6.2-liter HEMI with a supercharger tacked on, while you and your passengers luxuriously lounge upon a premium Tuscany leather interior. All this awaits you in Scappoose, Oregon with just 22,500 miles done so far. Tempted? Give in and call us.
The GMC Sierra is the sister model of the Chevrolet Silverado, and it has been this way for several years now. But, the Sierra isn’t simply a badge-swap exercise. No, it’s sits a little higher than its Chevy sibling, thanks to offering more luxury interior appointments and better refinement. But, it retains the same purposeful ability to carry loads, tow trailers and even venture off-road if needed. So, if that sounds appealing, check out this 2024 GMC Sierra 2500 HD Crew Cab that’s for sale in Marina, California. This 12,536-mile truck has got a Duramax diesel under the hood, four-wheel drive and some tasteful modifications too.
This 2021 GMC Sierra 1500 Crew Cab SLT stands out through a licensed Harley-Davidson Edition visual appearance package that transforms GMC’s refined full-size pickup into a bold, lifestyle-driven statement truck. Built on the SLT Premium Plus platform and powered by the 3.0L turbocharged Duramax inline-6 diesel, this configuration is notable for delivering 460 lb-ft of torque while achieving fuel economy figures that rival midsize trucks, making it one of the most efficient diesel half-tons of its era. The combination of the factory X31 Off-Road Package with a BDS suspension system and Fox performance shocks gives the truck a visibly elevated stance without compromising everyday drivability, while 22-inch Harley-Davidson “Fat-Boy” milled aluminum wheels and exclusive branding create an immediately recognizable presence. Applied post-production by a licensed upfitter, the Harley-Davidson Edition adds rarity and visual distinction, blending GMC’s durability and comfort with Harley-Davidson’s unmistakable design identity in a package that prioritizes character and long-distance capability over factory performance theatrics.
