Just when I thought the JT was doing ok, I find it's got a major problem I'm going to have to deal with somehow. Man, one thing after another with this truck.
Roof off, spiderwebshade in place, drove it to church this evening, and we get halfway there and my wife points out that the Jeep is really messing her hair up. Yes, the JEEP was doing it, she said so. She doesn't lie. I tried to look in the manual but found nothing about that.
Is there a fix? Or do we just have to put up with the Jeep messing her hair up?

See! you get it papa. All these horrible things and not one single disclosure have I found in the manual or any advertisement. I smell a serious lawsuit and with the amount of money our women can spend on their hair??? I mean landslide win.... probably could afford some more accessories afterward. I mean come on, what were the engineers thinking they should have done extensive wind tunnel testing to prevent this atrocity.

My wife didn't want to ride to Church this morning with the panels off , so we just have the front 2 doors off.
I have a 4 year degree that I had a job in for couple years, but now I deliver HVAC and love the times with customers. I still use my knowledge, but the best part about college was meeting my wife.

I've got to make a cart or rig a thing to hold the doors and try it sans doors - at least fronts for now, rears if I find a way to stow them in the crowded garage.

Now I suppose that they didn't take into account Iowa weather when they allowed you to take the roof off - sprinkles this AM. I could have gotten WET!
Jeep needs to put huge decals on these things saying "warning, removal of the roof may result in occupants getting wet". Look, McDonalds was sued over hot coffee - maybe I see something here....
Nowhere did I see a warning.

you can fix the muddy doors with staying positive on your offset and adding the overland running boards...if you use as a truck more than a serious offroad vehicle, otherwise ignore haha

But if it stays clean then people call me mean things like "mall crawler" and that also hurts my feelings. I need the internet to like me.

Lol, it's your money. My overland boards already paid for in car-wash savings alone. I still roll on 37's and sit well up there. Look good too, just not skateboard good. Instagram @gladiatoryyc if you like clean lifted sports without a bunch of garbage bolted on everywhere ;)

I think you will loose the Hair suit. There is a common saying out there and they put it on hats. Jeep hair don't care!!! This must be plausible deniability or something.. But the warning for broken faces is completely absent. I cannot wipe the smile off my face, my wife is starting to think something is wrong... and SHE drives a JK rubi.
What am i going to do, whups gota go, I have dirt/mud to find....

I realize my humor is not for everyone and that without voice inflection and facial expression it can fall flat, even though this whole thread is about sarcasm.

Here is the reality. I graduated from community college.
The fact that you have to even explain yourself in a post that was made to invoke laughter by using humor. Some people will complain about anything.
Yup, went to community college too.

WHY DID JEEP EVEN MAKE THIS THING? SO MANY THINGS WRONG
I just discovered a new complaint.

Today I found out the 7" Uconnect radio will pair with my FLIP PHONE! I can do hands-free voice-actuated calling, and control calls from the steering wheel.

Now I have no excuse for ignoring calls while driving! (But I do have another excuse for not getting a smart phone).

See! And lack of attention span is also proven due to daydreaming and obsession over finding somewhere new to take out Jeeps to get them muddy. Still no warnings about that either.

New complaints.......
Due to massive storm we have no power and expect none for a couple of days. Even cell service iffy. Working on old tablet until battery dies. This dang truck has live usb charging ports (1 hour after eng shutoff that is).
That sucks. Now no excuse to not charge wife's phone so she can play words with friends.
We were in Ames when we heard about coming storm. It was moving 70 mph towards us with 80 mph winds rain and hail. Wife said to make best time home. Lol....man did we haul butt for home but it hit while we still had 10 miles to go (Ames is an hour from us).
We got hammered by cat 1 hurricane winds- straight line winds 80 blowing mph and us in a Jeep????????
Well, i was really truckin i mean MOVING and got smacked hard by those hellish winds but the stupid truck stayed on the road. There's got to be something terribly wrong. It simply stayed on the winding road while i drove at mandatory lose your license speeds. Dumb thing, it didn't even want to wander into the other lane. Of course i had a grip on the wheel. Recall the movie Twister or Tornado or whatever with Helen Hunt? That is what it was like with road signs blowing down, tree branches flying across the road ahead of us. Got home to find the trees that blew down as we passed took out big power lines so had to manually open garage. Trail rated? Heck no.......hurricane rated!
I thought they made these to steer crappy and be unstable. Well, they messed up.
