Inattention to detail. We have a world full of it.

I want to find the button that allows me to select a 392 from the factory. Stupid Stellantis.

Consult with a lawyer before you do anything with FCA, or any manufacturer, about a vehicle issue. Most places have folks who specialize in both consumer transactions and in “lemon law“ situations. If you need to know who to talk to most state’s bar associations have lawyer referral services...

I suspect it relates to the cultural shame associated with any interaction with the courts. I’m assuming it is an overwhelming desire to avoid getting stopped at all costs. I’m guessing that’s not happening in Mumbai, or anywhere else you have 3 billion cars.

A lot of lease owners look at it as like driving a rental. Not their car and they don't care. As a result, and the effect that has on the manufacturers through the leasing residuals, several are now "including" maintenance of some sort OR offering a pre-paid maintenance package as a part of...

Self PIT maneuver. To me it looks like the Jeep forgot how long he is, or was, and tried to play Formula 1 swervy games. Thanks to modern crash protection, and more importantly modern Level 1 trauma ER’s, it looks like neither of them will be a statistic. Hopefully there was a lesson learned.

I’m not going to get into the middle of which fluid to use. However, there are a couple non-mechanical factors that you have to consider when taking the OEM (ANY OEM not just Jeep) advice on service and maintenance. First is the aforementioned CAFE requirements that force Jeep and every...

Didn’t they say they were going to lose 4.5 billion on EV’s? Or am I misremembering that? I guess I passed my alzheimer‘s test … https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/ford-set-to-lose-45-billion-on-electric-vehicles-this-year-despite-increased-revenue/ar-AA1excj3

This is the thing that demonstrates that EV’s are NOT economically viable currently. How many of them would be selling, especially at the relative premium over IC, without a government subsidy or, in some cases, a mandate / prohibition. And remember, there is no such thing as a free lunch...

Brother’s house essentially destroyed by a drone battery that burned through a “fire proof” case. And I’m talking a tiny cell phone sized drone. Nothing the FD could do and the vapor of the combustion toxified the entire house even where there was no fire or water damage. EV batteries are a huge...

Mojave. End of story.

I think the correlation was related to A/T v. M/T. At least that was my observation. I have a 22 w/ A/T and the 5.

Winner winner chicken dinner.

My experience with the KO2s is similar. Converted to the 315 from stock (though on AEV Borahs) and have about 17k miles on them currently. Been a great tire and very little sign of wear. Quiet and good ride manners. I did do the AEV 2inch lift and the shock brackets so that probably helps a bit...

So can empathize with that comment.

?

@Phishs Apparently the door cards are different in the Mojave versus the other. The handle area is reworked. I only learned this when someone tried to convert their door pull on a non-Mojave to have the Mojave handle (IIRC for the stiching) and they were not bolt-in as expected. I think it is...

I wanted a Mojave over the others for multiple reasons. 1) I do not intend to any rock crawling because I am not going to take my ‘new’ $60k truck and risk bashing in the sides unless there is an apocalypse and then I won’t really care. Therefore, the Rubi’s admirable crawl ratio is...
