"We’ve opened up a discussion section for politics, firearms and religion. Put on your thick skin and come on in (behave respectfully of course)!"
That seems to border on oxymoron to me. How do you mix that shit and still expect civility? :)

I think the firearms one will be the most civil of the three actually.

I can actually believe that too. Worst case "my gun is bigger than yours".

Actually, 15 mph in first is only about 3k-3.5k rpms...I think. I will try to pay attention to it next time in it.
hmm, I it was about the same for my Dakota, but I didn't find it worthwhile to get that fast in first, as second gear was more than viable at 10ish MPH.

Some thoughts:

1) I count two girls and one dude. Hmmm...maybe one is single?
2) Driver is arguably better at a MT than I am...I wonder if she's the single one?
3) Doesn't soap burn your eyes?
4) Goggles? Goggles...I guess not.
5) That water must be ice cold.
6) Those brushes look mildly painful.
7) That Jeep hasn't been that clean in years probably.

lol, as far as the other two... RA and I have had this discussion, that we can disagree and still get along. I really can't see many others treating each other the same way.

This morning, Roxy rolled 450 miles on her odometer. The miles are adding up very quickly!! LOL All I can say is...I love Roxy!!! I honestly haven't found anything to complain about her yet. First gear...while being low...is still doable for taking off. I usually shift out of first around 15 mph. The thing I have to watch out for is taking off from a rolling stop (or slow down) and trying to do that in first. LOL It has created some jerky take-offs. Second gear rolling take-offs down to 7 mph has been good...just have to remember to do it. I am getting there with it. LOL
I can tease second out at 6mph if I feather into it. Picking up in first above 7mph is very jerky!
