2007 Jeep Liberty in Morristown, TN - $0

Since its introduction in 2002, the Liberty has been a favorite with consumers looking for that special combination of personal freedom and capability delivered by this mid-size Jeep SUV. For 2012, Liberty models are available with new color offerings (delayed availability): Mineral Gray Metallic, Canyon Brown Pearl, Rescue Green Pearl, True Blue Pearl and Black Forest Green Pearl.

Liberty's exterior boasts a rugged, classic Jeep look that captivates and broadens its consumer appeal. Jeep's Sky Slider® full-length open-canvas roof is an industry exclusive and gives the Liberty that "have fun out there" open-air Jeep brand experience.

Offered in Sport, Limited and Jet trim levels, standard power for the Liberty is generated by a 3.7L V-6 engine. A 42RLE four-speed automatic transmission communicates torque to the ground. The Jeep SUV remains true to its legendary 4x4 heritage by offering two Jeep Trail Rated® four-wheel-drive systems – (MP1522) Command-Trac II® and (MP3022) Selec-Trac II®. Command-Trac II® is a part-time four-wheel-drive system, which is the standard 4WD configuration. Command-Trac II operates in 2WD, 4WD Lock, 4 WD Low and Neutral.

The optional Selec-Trac II® is a full-time, active on-demand four-wheel-drive system. Select-Trac II operates in 2WD, 4WD Auto, 4WD Low and Neutral. The Liberty features independent front suspension with rack-and-pinion steering and a five-link rear suspension.

The Liberty SUV features control hardware that starts with an independent SLA (short and long arm) coil spring front suspension and a five-link rear suspension which includes upper and lower trailing links and a track bar for greater lateral stiffness. A link-type stabilizer bar upfront helps control body lean in cornering and lane-change maneuvers. Ample wheel travel and tuned jounce bumpers help maintain the vehicle's consistent ride quality. A low-arm design mounts the upper control arm on the longitudinal rail of the front body structure for optimum stiffness to minimize noise, vibration and harshness.

Inside the cabin an available fold-flat front passenger seat works with the standard 60/40 fold-flat reclining rear seats for impressive combinations when the need exists for hauling people and/or cargo.

In the cargo area, the load floor system has a reversible carpeted surface. Dual latches on either side release for access to a four-inch-deep waterproof storage bin beneath the lid – perfect for muddy boots or flats of flowers. The load capacity of the cargo load floor system is 400 pounds.
