Wright City/Troy area here (west of St. Charles) Don’t know how I didn’t realize I hadn’t posted my own on this thread yet. Got my JTR about a year and a half ago. Was gonna wait for the hydro blue but didn’t. Found a really good deal on this one and took it. Been loving it. Does everything I...

Dang. Had a pic of the doors and top off. No sandy beaches around here. I’ll have to watch for the next one. Lol

Actually, if I remember correctly, when the JT came out, they said the rubicon JLR, JLUR, & JTR come with the higher clearance fender flares and can therefore fit 35’s stock. And the “bead lock capable” Mopar rims are wider than stock rims to accommodate wide tires. On top of all this, there was...

what kind of highway mileage are you getting pulling with the eco diesel on average? My 3.6 goes from 16 or so average running around town to about 8 or 9 towing. Trying to decide if the eco diesel would be a wise choice to better pull the camper 5-6 times a year. I know there are a lot of other...

that is the rub when towing with a midsized truck that only has an 18 gallon tank and the aerodynamics of a lego block. I get 16-17 without the trailer and about 8 with (doing 70 or so). Doing 60-65 on flatter ground improves that a little but running the speed limit with the flow of traffic...

I also have a JTR automatic and towed multiple times last year after buying it. As mentioned several times, there’s four main numbers to look at for trailer calculations. tow capacity (JTR=7000lbs, which pretty much takes into account your gross combined weight rating number minus your vehicle...

:involve:that’s beautiful!!!!! (Excuse me while I step away and wipe the drool off my chin)

Multiple motorcycles over the years.... learned to ride back in the 80’s on a Honda XR250R enduro (street legal dirt bike) and have since owned a 650 Honda, a GSX, a 1400 Kawi, several harleys, a goldwing and currently straddling a can-am F3S (bad knee but I miss the lean of the two wheelers...

I have to agree with @cuellar13. Make it a trip in honor of your moms memory and it will help the grieving and closure. Is there any place your mom had talked of seeing but never did? Go there and see it for her. we used to vacation every summer when I was a kid, went lots of different places...

First nice spring day in JKU years ago I took the hard top off and was running errands. Halfway home hit a sudden downpour, stopped under a bridge and put the freedom tops on thinking that would help. Didn’t. All the water going over the jeep proceeds to pour off the back to the freedom top...

75 here today. Nothings frozen. Of course I’m in Missouri so that could change within a week. Lol

Financed my truck with Chrysler Capital to get almost 7% below invoice, paid the 4 payment minimum for the deal and refinanced with the credit union that has my bike note. Gap insurance was $395 to add to the loan. Not much but the finance companies are gambling on payout value being above loan...

A lot has been said of the cold temps and snow in Texas but here in the St. Louis area we haven’t seen high temps above freezing for 14 days (and a few nights below 0). That said, I could drag my burn barrel from behind the barn to the driveway and get the pic if I could find it in myself to...

Challenge is “NEXT TO” a fire. Not “ON” fire :facepalm:

Go by the chart @ShadowsPapa posted above. Rubicon is pretty simple, 7k with the automatic. The ones that get confusing is figuring out which numbers apply to a particular sport model because of the various combinations of base tow package, no tow package and max tow package and then 3.73 gears...

That’s the story I was talking about before. The part that article doesn’t report is that they had to get into the head unit in the car to know all serial numbers, IMEI numbers and carrier signal numbers to be able to do the hack. So..... if YOU piss off the wrong person they COULD break into...

To be honest, is a hack possible? sure. Likely? Not really. You can worry all you want about hacks, but as someone else commented, you can only do so much to stop it. Kinda like car alarms... you can spend $1000 on an alarm with all kinds of features that will stop the honest and the inept...

Just a thought.... do you have the automatic cruise control package? Wondering if you left that on and it’s trying to keep the set distance. Don’t have it on my JT so not sure if it being on would cause the issue of hitting the brakes when it sees the back wall of the garage or the brushes at...

Are we worried about “zombie vehicles” from fast and furious 8? There was a demonstration years back where two guys hacked a Jeep Cherokee (regular not grand Cherokee) but they had to go into the uconnect on the vehicle first and get radio id’s and other info from inside the car and used a...
