  1. Oil change at one year or at low oil life?

    Please, stop. You are embarrassing yourself.
  2. Should I Re-gear??

    It will definitely improve livability, especially if you have a manual, but what it comes down to is, is that increase in livability worth the cost of gears and install to you? Also, as teamblkdog mentioned, if you aren't getting into 7/8 on the highway with an automatic, it could very well...
  3. Selec-Trac Transfer Case Swap - Myth Busted

    What are your thoughts on why it isn't available with the manual transmission? I've heard a few theories, but you seem more mechanically inclined than most.
  4. Help me pick the trim level?!

    If you will at some point want a locker in the rear but are okay without one in the front, Mojave. If you will want lockers front and back, Rubicon. If you don't care about lockers, you are probably better off going with a lower trim and upgrading the gearing. Edit: Assuming you have no...
  5. 6 Speed Manual Regrets?

    The only time I notice ESC being on or off is when I go to slide around a corner. With it on, you can't do a decent slide(or donuts in the snow). As for HSA, I had to turn it off. I tend to be very quick off the clutch and always beat the HSAs release of the breaks, causing a stall. I like...
  6. Opened door won't drive

    Just trade it in for a manual transmission. Problem solved. ?
  7. Anyone in AZ own an ecodiesel? Does it overheat in the summer?

    When the EcoDs derate, what kind of power loss are you looking at? Is it pretty much, limp to a safe spot and cool off for a bit?
  8. New owner

    Mind you I optioned pretty much all the luxury items, but even my wife with her Camry Hybrid that has all the luxury options is jealous of my interior. As for halogens and speakers, you should have checked out a few first. I went for the LED lights and the premium sound package and couldn't...
  9. Shocking new gas prices [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS. VIOLATORS BANNED]

    Never attribute to politics that which can be attributed to simple greed. Of course, anyone who wants to believe otherwise is in luck. For every belief, there is a supporting internet source these days.
  10. Frame damage directly off the delivery truck

    Here is what it should look like for reference.
  11. Auto stop/start a dangerous nightmare!

    If the passenger heated mirror isn't working, that's the plug I would check first. These posts make me really nervous about taking my doors off. Add me to the few folks who like ESS. I don't find it intrusive, though it does have a bit of a learning curve. It yells at me sometimes when I...
  12. Worst on Consumer Reports

    Oh, absolutely. I wasn't trying to imply that all Ivermectin is horse wormer, only that people are literally going to Tractor Supply and buying it in horse wormer form to treat Covid.
  13. Worst on Consumer Reports

    Welcome to the age of "No belief is wrong"! If you don't agree with an opinion, you are only a click away from finding one you agree with. Unfortunately, the same goes for facts. No matter what your bias is, it can be confirmed in a matter of seconds. In this world, the earth can be flat...
  14. So this happened

    This is excellent information. I'm not sure how a business can claim they aren't responsible for a vehicle left in their care. We aren't talking vandalism in a Walmart parking lot. You gave them the key. I had to have business insurance just to take photos of cars for car dealerships, knowing...
  15. Smog Failed - Not Ready

    Anyone just take it to a dealership and tell them to fix it? Seems like it should be Jeep's problem for selling you a vehicle that doesn't pass smog.
  16. Car companies stand to make billions by charging you monthly fees...

    I think are are in agreement on most of this stuff. If I want to own a movie, I will purchase it, which I have done for a few recently, but always digitally because I'm lazy and like that they don't take up physical space. Renting is easier than ever, but so is buying, though its a bit more...
  17. Car companies stand to make billions by charging you monthly fees...

    The difference between those and paying a monthly fee for features in a car is that most of the things you listed are improvements over how things were formerly done. I much prefer streaming my television to paying for cable or satellite tv. I still buy games, but there are some "free" ones I...
  18. Pentastar or 3.0l?

    I would say peak torque and peak horsepower are both fairly useless in these applications. Whether you like horsepower or you like torque, what matters is the curve. A Ninja 650 has more torque at a much lower RPM than a Yamaha R6, but its no contest who wins that race. I guess the only real...
  19. Pentastar or 3.0l?

    Hard to compare an engine dyno to one measuring at the wheel, but I digress. Like Nacho, if the diesel was available in manual, I would probably have strongly considered it, but I detest driving automatics. Anyone have a link to 1/4 mile times comparing the two in similar builds?
  20. Pentastar or 3.0l?

    Wouldn't the gasser get better acceleration? The diesel produces more low end hp, but the gasser produces more at the top end. But in the end, the diesel weighs significantly more.
