You forgot they're still trying to actively ban all rail and road freight that aren't EV, in OR out of the state. As THE major connection between ocean and land freight, that's impossible. That's why a decade ago some dipshit out there suggested "independently powers rail cars" (basically...

Took the front doors off yesterday and went for a drive. On the way home it started POURING, and I mean like Florida rain. Wasn't too bad when it wasn't coming in sideways. Guess nature said I needed a shower...

Sir, other than DEF and learning to romp on it weekly to prevent Regen issues, what expensive routine maintenance are you referring to? - And have you ever compare 3.6 to 3.0 towing, yeah, not "poor performance". It's NOT a large displacement engine, so you can't really compare them to a 5L+...

Came here to say this is why direct injection requires MORE maintenance, the ethanol in the fuel doesn't touch the back of the valves allowing more carbon/contamination deposits (EGR, PVC, etc) and REQUIRES 40-60k mile top-end teardowns for "media blasting" of the heads and valves. This service...

This, and the fact that when you have usable power where you actually drive, you'll spend less time on the throttle getting up to speed so you can let off sooner thus using less fuel. This is common practice in the tuner world (imports) where we remap tables to extract available power that was...

No moonshine running with the JT? The good ol boys down there would take moonshine and run it in their engines to outrun the fuzz. But I'm sure you knew that ;) As others have said, post pics of the JT all dirty, or clean...if it's dirty that just means you actually use it like the truck it is...

So I was blind about the key slot, my b. Did you check the wiring like I suggested?

If I only used dealers based on relevant reviews, I'd bring driving to another state for service. Jeep dealers in my area only care about one thing, SELLING Jeeps. Their service depts are constantly some of the worse I've experienced, which is a reason I never bought a Ford, why would I want to...

While I agree there's basically no where else you can get the varying off-road options in a single state. I enjoyed the public land factor of the west coast while I was out there for a few years. But all the other drawbacks don't make up for the problems those places create due to sheer...

When did they put a key slot on the tailgate? Am I blind? Pretty sure I've caught myself making a joke to myself about "man I hope I never have to use the tailgate with the cover if the electric lock fails" haha. But to offer insight, take a look at the wiring diagram for the tailgate and...

The repaint is from a warranty claim previously that wasn't done correctly (hence the statements from the collision shop), therefore FCA/Jeep need to honor their work/warranty for workmanship. I want the issues they caused (paint, door seals, tailgate) to be properly corrected. Not half assed...

Both a joke AND serious. CA has the most homeless people in the country, FACT. CA has the highest (after Hawaii, only due to shipping costs inflating EVERYTHING) cost of living in the country. CA is one of the top 5 highest income states in the country. CA is the 1st state to medicalize...

They already have, that's what I mentioned: "JeepCares has been trying to help, but I've been calling dealers and they're blatantly refusing due to either "how do we know we'll get paid" or "We're not taking over for another dealer's mistakes." But thank you!

Sir, if we weren't a few thousand miles apart, I'd buy you a beer. You seem like a chill dude.

Jay Leno has been summoned.

The only people that like living in CA either have MONEY, or are so high they couldn't care less about having things. There's a reason CA is the state with the most homeless people, whether they moved there or were born there. And a few of the reasons were already posted above.

If this isn't in the right place, let me know. I posted about how my truck had body work, paint, and door seals done under warranty, which was done worse than a trade student could do. I've been to 2 dealers and at this point, their collision shop Jeep guy told me "We're not painting anything...

I also mentioned something about weight differences regard crash testing. IIRC it's the emissions testing you must supply every powertrain option to comply. I stopped bothering for automobiles after seeing the current regulations/requirements. NO, I'm not putting reflectors/amber lights over...

@bmpcamry09 If I wasn't still stuck with other things going on, I'd be in your shoes doing diag/tuning on my JT too since I have a manual and the GPEC2 ECM. I knew these engines were severely limited. EPA crap always ruins performance. You mentioned 87oct not getting the bigger gains, but...

Aesthetics always ruin function. You said it yourself, it's not a pavement princess. Doesn't need to be a 7.3 powerstroke either, but make it function, then make it pretty. That's a lot of money for a piece of scrap aluminum, a few bolts, a spring, a delrin knob, and some epoxy. EDIT: You can...
