  1. I love my local dealer!

    It's in Marion. Right next to I-40. They're a smaller dealership, definitely Jeep lovers. When I go for service, Tony, the guy who sold me mine usually comes out and chats about Jeep stuff, camping, and whatever else comes to mind. They don't have massage chairs and fancy coffee bars, but...
  2. Bronco is fullsize - no comparison

    Jeeps were still around after Broncos left the first time. I believe history will repeat itself.
  3. I love my local dealer!

    Seriously wow. I read all these stories about dealers not wanting to help people. Today I went to my dealer's service manager about two issues and he immediately scheduled me for the first one for this Monday, and the other one for when the parts come in. Guess which issues they are...
  4. Another one bites the dust…..

    27' does seam like a little much for these trucks even with max tow, so I think you made a good call.
  5. How do you all keep from wanting??

    Simply put, I'm happy with mine. I see others I like, sure, but not more than the one I have. I love the color and it suits me perfectly in every way. I'll never say never though. If one comes around that I like better (enough better that I'd rather have it than the money it would cost)...
  6. Old and new together

    Okay so after the kayak paddle down the river and we took them out of the water the cool old truck was gone, but I ended up getting my very first duck! I got one of the ducks from it’s dash! Wow what a great day.
  7. Why so big?

    I’ve noticed the Jeep size increase you’re talking about. I actually like it, and it helped me to take the plunge back into the Jeep world. That said, I love the old smaller Jeeps too. They’re a whole different animal than what the new Jeeps are. They’re more spartan and harsh - and I mean...
  8. Old and new together

    I got a chance to park next to a cool vintage Jeep truck today at the river where we take out our kayaks. Check out all the ducks on the dash! You can’t even see all of them in this picture. There must have been eight or more. I wish I had one with me that I could have left. Gotta get me...
  9. Voided warranty due to gears

    Mine has started doing the hot blast when we're on trips, especially when it's very hot outside. It's relatively frequent, too. Also, it's not cooling the cabin properly in auto mode. I can set it on 65 and it's still hot enough to make us sweat, that is until we take it off auto and crank it...
  10. I know I’m going to catch grief for this question. Why go larger wheels and tires

    Huge tires and lifts are not my cup of tea. I did replace the tires but with the stock diameter. I actually like the silver stock wheels, so why change them? I do fully understand why so many want to do it, but I like mine the way it is. Here are the reasons: It performs exactly the way I...
  11. Bestop Supertop 2 bed topper installed - pics & feedback

    Good question that I was also wondering. From the looks of it in the pics, this one seems to have side panels and back that fit in similar to the top on our TJ. Side panels are attached by Velcro and zippers, while with the Softopper the sides and back roll up. It also appears from the...
  12. How long did it take for you to find these?

    I've known it was there, but I still just reach for the controls on the dash. Old habits die hard.
  13. Please tell me there's other soft top options

    ??? Are you thinking about someone else? I never said I didn’t like the factory soft top. I have a TJ with a soft top and I like it fine. All I said was that I love the Sunrider with my hard top.
  14. Please tell me there's other soft top options

    I don’t have a soft top, at least not for the JT, but I agree 100% about the Sunrider. It’s a game-changer. Open or closed at a traffic light (or even while driving 20 mph) in 5 seconds. Looks good (in a Jeepy kind of way) whether open or closed.
  15. What is this footwell green LED light?

    Security system? That’s what they want you to believe. Have you read “The Tommyknockers”?
  16. Bandit Edition Gladiator

    I actually had a 77 Bandit Trans Am. I’m still trying to decide how I feel about this. I think I love it but I’m not sure it’s okay to.
  17. Anyone added hood vents to Sport

    Yeah do what you want to make it the way you want it. One thing I’ve figured out about Jeeps is that there are no rules we have to follow but our own. Some here would disagree with that statement, but just look at all the Jeeps around in real life - they couldn’t care less about what we think...
  18. Jeep Gladiator Sport Headlight/Taillight Upgrade From Base Halogen?

    That looks pretty good actually. I was hoping to find more of an LED version of the simple halogen look - without the halo and divided areas, but I guess that's not reasonable to expect.
  19. Jeep Gladiator Sport Headlight/Taillight Upgrade From Base Halogen?

    I'll probably get around to doing the LED thing, or maybe not. I do believe that it's better to go with the whole housing rather than just replacing the bulb. I would be much more tempted if there were an aftermarket housing option that's more like the stock ones in appearance. I don't much...
  20. Assholes giving the bird

    Sometimes people are focused on their next turn, the car next to them, singing whatever song is streaming, or whatever, and they just don’t notice me waiving. I do the same thing, so it really means nothing if it appears that I’m ignored. I’ve also got a 2001 TJ (an old beater beast with...
