Thanks for this. Keep us posted with updates. ’25 Glad here with the stock (not Alpine) stereo, so I’ll be following how your install goes.

Hey, her dad is 33, and he’s still there.

Many years ago when I changed jobs and had to give up new company cars I got to drive for free for ten years, I consulted CR to help me with my car buying decision. I did that for maybe two purchases in a row. I was disappointed with both vehicles, and reached a conclusion. Buy what you like...

One thing I started doing is just throwing up the wave, bike or Jeep, and keep my eyes on the road. A lot of the time I don’t know if they waved or not.

@KWRubi I’m running the Wild Peak AT3W that came on my Rubicon. I’ve been on the trails before, but for various reasons the only “off road” I will likely see in the future is well maintained granite gravel NC forest service roads, and not often. And I don’t tow. It’s usually just me in the JT...

I do run Exxon 87 almost exclusively. I first noticed it on my ‘24 Sport S. When I’d turn onto the road to my street, it’s a half mile, straight, slight incline, and 20 yards after that turn, maybe in second or third gear it would just jolt like the on-off of a light switch, very fast...

It’s not noticeable at all now. Zero.

We’re men. We must fix it, and fix it now. It’s high drama at my house when something breaks at Casa Gonemad.

Interestingly, my ‘25 Rubicon that had the hiccup, (as did my ‘24 Sport S traded at 8,000 miles) no longer has the hiccup, 6800 miles. I don’t recall when it stopped

I bought a brand new Hyundai for my youngest kid when he got his license. He gave me no trouble, played ball, and got straight A’s. I was tired of his brother’s leaky, wrecked, POS cars in my driveway, and didn’t want another one like it. What did I do? backed into that new car that I paid cash...

I was required to make one large pancake for our 5 year old granddaughter due to the wife having a stomach bug. I’ve never made pancakes, although I can cook bacon, eggs, omelettes, and sausage with my eyes closed. The pancake looked sorta like this...

Finished the shock install. Did it on the ground with just hand tools, and a torque wrench. I’m tuckered out.

Honda

I’d love a hemi, but I do fondly remember 20mpg average over 120,000 miles with a Coyote in an F150 SuperCrew 4x4

My wife retired early and is now 64. She pays $1400 a month to Blue cross for a Blue Advantage plan. She’s healthy so she went with a somewhat higher deductible to lower premiums..

Yesterday I was going to install the rear shocks without jacking the Jeep or removing the tires, just with hand tools, no impact wrench. I figured I’d need three hands, one to hold the open-end wrench on the top nut behind the rear shock, and the other two hands to break it loose with the 18”...

I ride a VTwin about 10k a year and around here riders of all flavors of bikes wave when passing. The Jeeps around here don’t wave so much. I do, generally.

My wife is 5’5” and doesn’t use the passenger side step getting in or out. I’m 6’3” and don’t use it getting in but I do use it getting out.

My Jeep is a daily, and firewood hauler. This is what I do in spring, summer, and fall, and most of winter.

Installed front shocks. Just used hand tools. Replacing the rears in the morning. I might have to use Gorilla tape as a third hand to hold the wrench behind the top of the shocks for the top bolts. We’ll see how that goes.
