  1. DragonFly Build

    I don't think you can compare the Jeep to anything else out there, there is NOTHING like a Jeep and Jeep knows it! Several years ago Jeep sent me a letter telling me I was one of the first 50 people to order a Jeep Rubicon 2003, they asked if I was willing to meet with the Jeep Rubicon...
  2. DragonFly Build

    OK folks sit down: 2017 F 350 Crew Cab, Long Bed, 6.7 Diesel ($9K+ option) King Ranch, just about every option Ford offer in '17, I drove it out after my rebates etc at almost $68, almost $69k. Look at the pics and see what $60+k gets you in a REAL truck. There is NO comparo from a F 350 to a...

  6. How does allocation work?

    What are you doing up there in VA that is not place to retire to???
  7. How does allocation work?

    RIGHT! Only 3 times have I been asked for a deposit and 2 times the check was never cashed. The 3rd time they cashed the check and the Jeep never showed up, but I got my money back. Over the years I have seen some 'stuff': The GM at one dealer wanted $2000 in $20's before he would order a...
  8. Freedom Top Heat

    YES!!!!! There is a paint that I would apply to customers Jeeps with hardtops when I lived out in Scottsdale Az where they just don't know heat, but OWN IT! NOTE: I did apply this on some customers softops and got good results and never had a customer come back unhappy. NOT CHEAP, MSRP $169...
  9. Lug nut torque

    YEP, that 150 is based upon anti-seize compound being used. If you don't use that stuff somewhere down the road at tire changing time you can snap those lug nuts off or spin them in the hub. They actually make a lug nut splitter that you put on the lug nut and tighten down a bolt to split it...
  10. How does allocation work?

    I only know form a Chev perspective: Allocation is based upon past years sales. Sold 10, get 10, but the dealer down the road sold a 100 so he gets a 100 plus priority in getting them to his lot. He gets on day 1 you get on day 2. This, as stated above, is inventory. Most of my experience...
  11. So you think you Plywood, Bro? 4190 club

    I think we all chip in, ship him a bag of Kingsford Charcoal and a grill for the drivers' side foot tub along with a pair of Asbestos shoes.
  12. Data plates and warning stickers

  13. Data plates and warning stickers

    Let us know, if the nomenclature plates are NOT decals then I want one.
  14. Data plates and warning stickers

    Just remember they are NOT data plates, but "Nomenclature" plates, you gots to get it right or old Army like me will have no idea what you are talking about...

  16. Gears for 37" tires

    There are constants: At each corner, you have a rotating mass of around 125-135 lbs and be it CJ, TJ, LJ, JK, JL or JT, it makes no difference that has to be overcome and the faster you go the more of a factor it becomes. The more gears you have access to spread out across the RPM band the...
  17. Gears for 37" tires

    4:88, got almost 100K on 37's and 4:88's...even with that there have been times I had to run in 5th and even 4th a few times when the headwinds get bad like I 10 just W of the Ca border heading into LA. If you are asking about SERIOUS HD wheeling in Moab on the 4+ trails and you hit them often...
  18. Better for residual: Auto or Manual Trans...?

    Sad to sad a manual tans is the kidss of low trade it, if they will take it most likley they will whole sale it out. IF you are going manual to save $2k I would not do it. I am getting an auto only, ONLY because the wife will drive it. It wit was mine it would be a stick. I have been driving...
  19. Tires: 35's, 37's and beyond . PSI TP

    Anything that shows across the tread so you can get a reading. Adjust in 2 lb increments. Minus 2 if your sidewall is getting wet, + 2 if its not going to the edge...
