Yes, I have 2 factory keys/remotes for the Jeep.Tell me more about the running boards - The running boards are Factory Mopar OEM - black in color - all parts are there including hardware bag (never opened) and detailed instructions.Have you recently driven the Jeep? Yes, I recently drove the Jeep from NJ to Baltimore and back home (same day) to pick up a new dual axle 22' boat trailer - in 80 degree weather - no issues.Does the "climate control" work? Yes, heat and A/C works as it should - climate control functions all work.What suspension parts were replaced? In reviewing all the receipts - Front Track Bar, Steering Stabilizer, Front ShocksAny other repairs? Yes, front tires replaced at 138K miles, transmission cooler lines replaced, intake manifold gaskets - replaced, rear main seal - replaced.Do all the receipts go with the Jeep? Yes, personal info will be omitted.Can I pick up vehicle and drive it back home? You can... but not with my plates. Once you buy the vehicle you do as you will - I take no responsibility whatsoever by someone slapping their plates on the vehicle and driving it (which is illegal) and getting caught w/o proper registration/plates/insurance.Will you work with me and hold the vehicle for a week? Sure, provided the vehicle is paid for in full - I have no issue with giving anyone time to properly title, register and plate the vehicle. Same goes for shipping. The Jeep is in a secure place and I don't have to necessarily move it - but again... a reasonable time frame is OK.I hope this additional information is helpful for everyone interested in my vehicle.
