I had a similar issue recently and found that something obstructing/pressing the back buttons would do that (if only trying the front switches for back window operation). Meaning, I thought something was wrong in the way you have described...but when I cleared the obstruction that was...
Thank you, I have been to White Sands years ago but it is time to go again. I spent some time in nearby Alamogordo too (not necessarily a highlight).
I did not know about the Billy the Kid details, and have not spent time in Fort Sumner. I will check it out!
Hey, all. I'm planning a trip in the next week or so from SE Arizona along Route 66. In part, it was inspired by a few YouTube videos that show exploration of ghost towns. In many cases, it simply parallels the new interstate (I-10/I-40). It is easy to see why people don't travel these...
Fine. :)
Toyota is a great example of a well run auto company, but is clearly not thinking "enthusiast first" (arguably some things have changed in recent years). It reminds me of when their CEO was asked many years about the future of sports cars at Toyota and he said "The Camry"! No...
Yes, it has great high specific output and is now ubiquitous (and also sounds really good). Still, I just think it is wrong for this kind of vehicle. The Toyota thing is another story and won't go there at the risk of derailing this thread.
A couple friends were the crew chief / chief...
While interesting to read, we know this is likely little more than vaporware for the foreseeable future (not just the US market). I found the inclusion of "chicken tax" a wonderful nugget of history. For those not familiar, it is worth reading about. I agree it is very well presented! Thanks...
Welcome to the conversation! It’s more nuanced than that, but I appreciate the comment.
Some tend to see this as a zero-sum game. It is not. IC engines and EVs can both advance. We all win.
Yes, batteries must scale in a sustainable way, and today’s EV are helping to pave the way. You...
I'm not surprised -- maybe there are differences, but maybe not. We've all seen the endless Chinese clones with other products. FWIW, mine don't do that (yet?!). :)
Still, I thought I was buying something a bit more bespoke...we are blinded by a good deal!
I really don't want to get better...
Update: The driver's side unit failed in an interesting way. I want to say upfront that Infinite Off Road has been great to work with here -- and gave super fast responses to my email inquiries. Really, top notch customer service! "25 year replacement guarantee"!
So, I started to notice...
Note about consideration for manual transmission Jeeps: I am pretty sure you could make this kit work for it, and would have tried it on my JLS -- except it also had roll-up windows (which I love!). You need power windows for this kit to work. That aside, there are obvious safety issues with...
Hey all -- I appreciated reading about all of the options for remote starter kits for our Gladiators here on this forum. I really wanted one on mine and it is the first Jeep I've owned that did not come with it (I don't count my Sport with manual transmission of course - but aftermarket kits...
They made a brief mention of that and simply said "between the frame rails". When I saw the video, I immediately thought it was a natural platform based on how I'd try to retrofit such a platform. It makes sense to me and can see where some might buy a kit like this when they have to consider...
I'll bring it home. The video is interesting and provocative. I drive a gasoline Gladiator and love it. We are in the golden/final age of IC engines. Some of the best examples ever made, exist right now. Still, I can't wait for a fully sorted electric version! I bet that's soon (less than...
I think where we live dictates that. Because it is true that we have power issues, it does not mean we cannot also have examples where EVs also work for *some*. Yes, this is a very hot topic! I don't have a need to covince anyone -- like it or not, it is here and growing. Again, our...
Whether you are a fan or not, electric vehicles are here to stay...
Consider a few arguments here are exactly what happened at the debut of gasoline engines. There were concerns about how far apart fuel stations were, fire danger, noise, and reliability issues. The list goes on, and you can...
Right! I imagine this took a TON of time to do what he already did, and I have already commented to a friend just how refreshing the approach was. I want to see more of that kind of thing and he hinted it is coming. I'd be surprised if he doesn't acknowledge this point. Good stuff!
I also...
