I haven’t checked. I’m ok with ignorance being bliss.
One time in 2003 I was driving semi tractor trailer with my Dad ( he owned his own rig) and He had a load to go to Hillsboro, TX .. it was super hot and We had driven for like 20 hrs. Starving. We found the warehouse . I convinced Dad to let's go find food . ( Hillsboro had nothing at the time) So we get back on 35 South Driving for awhile and Dad says if we don't find something soon we will loose money from too much fuel consumption. What was probably only a mile later I seen a small brown sign it was at the bottom of a get off ramp. It simply said "food and symbol of fork and knife" . I said right here Dad pulled the well and up the ramp we went . Just as we elevated to the top ....there it was....
A Golden Corral...oh my Lord we shot across the top of that highway overpass and turned into the lot and we went in there and ate like 2 wolves on a fresh kill...lol I was soo stuffed . I still remember having blackberry cobbler for dessert.
I don't know about the Devils taint but the food was hot😂😂😂 !!

I think I have done about all there is to do to my JTR. Canceling my Bronco so I have the ability to do what I want on my old JT.

I thought you hated and mistrusted Jeeps, especially YOUR Jeep and wanted to bail and get into something more reliable? All you've done is complain about it - why keep it?

My JT and I do have a real love/ hate relationship. Someday I will part with it but that day is still out there a ways. It's paid for and the pain of loss is still what keeps us together. It really works well with my big Bernese. My complaints are in the spirit of trying to make it as good as it can be.

You hate to love it. It’ll work out.

It’s been a while since I’ve done a project on it. Months at least. So today was the day. I washed it.

Added HikeIt X9 to add some spice to the gas pedal. Picked it up for $60. Might be a novelty, but I like being able to dial in the pedal response to my liking. Will definitely come in handy when towing the RV. Nice to have the ability to change the settings with the days of ice on the roads we will inevitably get this winter!

He looks annoyed that you took his pic,
She. And probably. She avoids direct eye contact with me. I assume she thinks I’m the alpha. But what do I know.

Ran 12v power to the bed of the truck for a portable fridge and freezer 🙌

I thoroughly enjoy wiring projects, and I love them even more when it all works on the first try lol don’t judge the paint, it sucks 🤣 just wanted some rust protection.

Similar to what I did in my 22, but made my own mounting plate so I didn't have to cut so much of the bed out to make them fit. I moved all 4 of the things closer in my own plate.
