The vast majority of real vets wouldn't care as long as you aren't trying to pass yourself off as a Veteran. Just say something like "I like Army jeeps but I never served" and you're good.
Our first range trip with them was in Kuwait before we convoyed to Northern Iraq from the Southern border. It was close quarter battle drills. People were drawing smiley faces or writing their initials with bullet holes in their targets. The same trip they gave us brand new, still wrapped in...
I learned to shoot irons but got a red dot when I deployed. When they work and if you spend the time to zero them they are much better than iron sights. Those are pretty important whens and ifs.
In 2003 My aimpoint m68 lasted an entire year deployment on one battery; but I made a habit of...
South Dakota here. No ticket for having snow on the roof or hood. I push off as much from the wind shield as I can and call it good. Or I park in the garage.
I wish you could get more stuff a la carte, cause I really like having my roll up windows and manual locks and really basic stereo, but I wish I could get that with lockers from the factory.
Greetings,
My understanding is that non-pizza cutter 35s on a sport with the skinny axles, no lift, on stock wheels, and no wheel spacers, is a no go.
My question is if I do something like a Mickey Thompson 255/85/17 or a Kenda Klever 35x10.5 on the stock wheel with no spacers, if the...
As a further incentive for the SD residency to register your cars, we don't have a state income tax either.
I just googled, residency in South Dakota requires spending one night in South Dakota and getting a driver's license. Your address can be a PO Box.
My sport is all manual windows and locks, so there are literally no buttons on my fob. It's still comically oversized and the key wont stay in. Just give me a key.
I don't really have any strong feelings about it, but I voted unfavorable just because the people who engineered the vehicle only added it to make emissions requirements. It's not something an engineer would have planned into the vehicle if they didn't have to do so because of government...
Moving to South Dakota is cheaper than adding cats.
My JK needs a new cat. Dealership says $2800 for the one. Fortunately no one in this state cares about emissions.
Mine was usually the alternator that caught fire. It finally caught fire while moving it from Oregon to South Dakota. We towed it to a jeep lot and bought our JK. My cousin is a mechanic and lived nearby so he picked it up and got it running. He sold it to a guy who wanted to do an engine swap...
Also an 87 YJ that liked to catch on fire, my 13 JK and my 23 Gladiator sport. Used to drive a C5 Corvette, a 3000gt VR4, a MK3 Supra Turbo, an AW11 MR2, a Celica, an Accord, a Neon, a New Beatle 1.8T, my wife's Cherokee Trailhawk, and some others.
I've had KO2s on a wrangler and a cherokee for the last 12 years driving in South Dakota winters. They have been fantastic in the mix of snow and ice we have on our roads and trails.
I need a new windshield on my Gladiator but the body has no dents.
My Wrangler on the other hand has survived 15 winters in South Dakota, and more importantly, 15 hail seasons in South Dakota. It looks like an off-road golf ball. In 15 years living here every car I've owned except for 2 has...
