If a V8 is released I'm ordering it on launch day. I don't think it will be around for too long. If it's within the next 2-3 years I will trade in. Otherwise it will be in addition to. I would hate to lose a 6 speed Punk'n JTR but for a V8 I would let it go. But in 3 or 4 years I won't have...
The JL latches are such a massive improvement over the JK latches its crazy. The JK had stretchy rubber for hood hold downs that's all. The JLs are better, adding some rigid plastic to the latch, but you can get aluminum ones that will secure the hood better.
Well the kid wanted to go ride his dirtbike so I took him to Jim Creek both Friday and Saturday. I haven't been wheeling in Jim Creek period for 8 years. Last time I was out there was Labor Day Weekend 2012 in our old K5. The site is so much better than it was then. The new bathroom and...
Well we made it there and back again. Was a good trip. Didn't see you in Homer or I would have suggested a Gladiator trail ride on my friends private beach in Ninilchik. You can go for miles and miles off his beach which has a private access road, one of only 2 on the peninsula is what I...
Now that is unfortunate. But the dealer performance tune for the 2.3 (320hp and 355lb ft in the Ranger) nearly makes up for it. I really hope Jeep responds in a way other than just some ultra expensive 392 variant. A 320hp 355lb ft 4 banger competitor sounds great.
Considering its got a 325hp 400ft lb V6 with that 7 speed manual and 4.7:1 axles on 35s from the factory I think the Bronco is going to be vastly superior to the Wrangler in many departments. Take it with a grain of salt because nothing is official until Monday, but that's what the "decoded"...
Me and my kid had just the fronts off over the winter. This was late April. We had the whole top off shortly after as well for a while. Its fun go and try it out. I love doors off but don't run that way as often as full top off. I've run totally naked a couple times but I do like having either...
We rented an RV and will be going out there July 11th. Bringing the Jeep too. If you've never been its a cool place man go. You ever been to Virginia City in Nevada? Its similar to that minus the bars and tourist shops. Haven't been there in over 10 years so we're excited to be going.
The dealership I bought mine has a hardtop, automatic, tow, mats, block heater, trak lok out the door for 36. You're close but expect nothing but an automatic. Without the other options that one would have been 33.5 or so. Registration is $200 and we don't have sales tax so that's what you'd pay...
I liked the JKs 6 speed more than the JTs but I've gotten used to it now. Our '16 Tacoma had the trusty 2.7. The 3.5 being a new engine I didn't want to bite. Loved that Tacoma, 4cyl 5speed 4x4. I was always fascinated with 4cyl 4x4s but it was totalled 2 years ago. I thought it was very telling...
Our 4Runner had power up/down seats. So you could adjust it's height. I like that about the Glad but I wish the passenger side was adjustable too. When there start being JTs in junkyards I'm going to get another drivers seat to put in the passenger side to remedy that.
How do you like the seating position over the Taco? We have a '15 TRD Off-Road and man I hate the seats in it. It's just where they put them, too close to the floor. If they could be raised/lowered it would be better. Our 4Runner didn't have that problem it was a comfortable car. But the wife...
It's been discontinued for months. All that are out there are all there will be. Look for one you like now the ones optioned the way you want will be gone soon.
Man remember the paints being delayed over the summer because they said they were having trouble with the formulas sticking to the plastic pieces? Guess they weren't lying. This was a fender flare I take it and not the actual fender?
A lot of us ordered them on opening day back in July. It is too bad it had such a short run. My first choice was Gator but because it was dead last on the paint schedule I ordered Punk'n. I'm very pleased with it but if Gator has been available I would have gone that route.
Of what month? I don't know if you knew this but Denali the town and park are closed as of now with no hard opening date. Passenger train service was discontinued until July except for a few pre determined days. If you're going in July I'd not worry about it but June might be iffy.
I would not take a rental off the highway on the Peninsula. There are no secondary roads or really any trails to speak of thats why you're not finding much. On top of that there are not as many active Jeepers that way to pull you out if you find a mudhole. You have a large community in South...
