Just a few thoughts from a software developer... I am certainly not an expert on this, more an aficionado for security, but my first thought is: the probability that your car, specifically, will be hacked, is very very low. Beyond that, there are multiple kinds of "hacks" here we should...

Leather seats, LED lights, aux switches (unless you plan to do something fancier after market), remote start, and proximity locks were among my "must have" among my "must haves". The safety group and cruise control have turned out pretty nicely for me as well. My only ragret is that it didn't...

Sarasota, FL to northern NJ, about 1,200 miles and 18.5 hours, only shutting off long enough to fuel up.

Thanks. It does tend to happen around shifts. I only started watching the gauge after I saw what looked like a quick burst of oil smoke when I remote started the other day. It didn’t look super abnormal, but I wanted to be sure.

What’s a good range for oil pressure. I’m usually 30-35 psi. But lately I’ve seen it spike up to ~75 for short periods of time. Is this problematic? Should I be getting this looked at? I just got back from a round trip to Florida from the New York City area. I’m at about 7200 miles so I’m due...

I guess YMMV, but I had TJ for Hurricane Sandy when it hit. It didn't see more than 18" of water, but enough to cover the frame/brakes/rotors. Within about 3 weeks I started having rust issues all over. I ended up having to replace all 4 rotors early due to excessive rust. Given the quality of...

I just stuffed the plywood in there and called it a day. No extra wood needed.

I think it's SUPER important to note that if you drove through brackish or full salt water, you MUST get a salt remover too. If the trail was flooded because of high tide from Eta, salt remover (like Salt Away) ASAP.

The button feel definitely changed from last weekend. The car sat for a few days and I got in to that. The button will actually get stuck in the pressed position and i have to push the opposite side to get it unstuck.

Anybody else having issues with their adaptive cruise control buttons? The 2 buttons that increase/decrease following distance keep getting stuck and don't actuate properly. They also make a lot of noise when trying to press, like the hinge isn't seated right. The button to turn cruise control...

That is a super polite way of putting my recent experiences with Jeep dealers.

I ordered the exact build I wanted.

I bought through Leon. I was happy with the price. And mostly happy with Leon/Criswerll. The only thing that irked me (that I still recall after 3 months) was trying to get the financing and everything setup ahead of time. I bought at the height of COVOID and was super uncomfortable doing the...

I haven't seen that on my JT, but my TJ would do this all the time. I used to have to listen for it to be almost full and stop the pump. Got to the point where the local attendant would let me pump my own gas in NJ.

My around town, i would say 50/50 highway/local gets me about 16-16.5 MPG. All highway depends on the terrain, going up the NY State Thruway, 17, up/down the NJ Turnpike/Parkway, 20 MPG all day long. I didn't see much of a difference between <1000 miles and >3000 miles in terms of MPG. I...

They are getting the car detailed tomorrow. If it still doesn't look good, I'm gonna make a big stink. Giving them a chance to make right on their terms.

Can't comment on their quality, but Headhead Headliners seem popular, i believe they are on the forums under @Hothead Headliners

I just finished a pretty long day trip to the mid-Hudson Valley in NY. want to upgrade from "marginally better" to "it is now decent". On my trip on the Thruway, I found myself correcting the steering much less often. I wouldn't describe it as "night and day" but it's a worthwhile improvement.

I dropped mine off on Wednesday. They were slow to fix it, and terrible about communicating the delays, but I finally got it back this evening. I thought it was odd that the service guy was waiting for me as it was well after business hours. He pulled the car out of the bay and waves me outside...

Wow, amazing write up! So glad I ordered mine with the trail cam. I was considering doing it this way myself.
