  1. Safe speed range for Sunrider soft top "auto-open"

    Honestly, this has become my preferred open method. Around 15mph, there's not enough air flow to open the top at all, Around 20mph or so, it will open all the way if you give it a "push" up so the air catches underneath. Even then, it opens slowly and doesn't "whip back" or anything. Obviously...
  2. Safe speed range for Sunrider soft top "auto-open"

    Yikes, that's pretty scary.:) I guess that does give us an "upper end" for the speed range though.
  3. Safe speed range for Sunrider soft top "auto-open"

    Thought this would lead to a lively discussion. ;) Anyone played around with the auto-open capability of the soft top into "Sunrider Position"? That is, you flip open the latches while driving, give it a small push, and let the wind catch it and "flip it" back to the open position. If so, any...
  4. Loose steering feels like it has play and drifts

    I can now,, without a doubt, state that the steering issues in this thread are absolutely not "a Jeep Thing". I had a 2018 Sahara JLU that I owned for 7 days, and it had awful, scary bad, loose steering, like many people are reporting here. Unfortunately, after just a week of owning it, a tree...
  5. Koons Group Buy Program for 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL -- 5% under invoice

    Just a quick note to say I also picked up my Sahara JLU from Craig a couple of weeks ago. Took the train / metro in, and Koons was about 2-3 minutes walk from the Metro stop. Craig emailed me the evening before my car arrived, and managed to get it all cleaned up and ready that afternoon. It...
  6. Loose steering feels like it has play and drifts

    Just adding my 2 cents. I went directly from driving a '97 TJ to a 2018 JLU Sahara, and can honestly say that compared to the JLU, my TJ handled like a Lamborghini. The JLU has a huge "dead spot" (3-4 inches of steering change needed before vehicle actually starts turning), and wanders all over...
  7. Rear Air Bags

    Yep, airbags do sometimes cause injury, but "on average" they do reduce the overall injury rate / reduce severity of injuries. (because If they didn't - that is, if having an airbag increased the injury rate, manufacturers would be sued out of existence :) And it is definitely money driven. I'm...
  8. Rear Air Bags

    Wow, I guess I hadn't done my homework. I didn't actually realize that the JLU didn't have side airbags in the rear seats. That's nuts! So in in accident, i'd be fully protected, but my kid could end up with a serious head injury and in a wheel chair for the rest of their life? As a parent, if...
  9. USB port was working now it isn’t sorta...

    Thanks @JeepCares , looks like the problem took care of itself (although not in the way I'd hoped for!) https://www.jlwranglerforums.com/forum/threads/mojito-wrangler-jl-club.2486/page-236#post-254522
  10. MOJITO! Wrangler JL Club

    BTW, thanks everyone for the good wishes, condolences, and funny comments. Here's hoping I can get a replacement soon!
  11. MOJITO! Wrangler JL Club

    Three! The JL, my '97 TJ which the JL was replacing (and I was planning on selling), and my wife's Camry. I think the tree must have gotten jealous of the new bright green thing in the front driveway and decided to take it out, along with its friends.
  12. MOJITO! Wrangler JL Club

    Nope, I was sleeping. We'd had a thunderstorm earlier in the evening, but it ended around 10pm or so. The tree actually fell a few hours after the storm, around 2:30am. I heard a noise like a branch falling (happens all the time around here), but didn't actually realize until I got up later that...

    LOL. Here are some pics now they've got the tree cleared off. It actually doesn't look too bad. Maybe a little filler putty and some new paint?
  14. MOJITO! Wrangler JL Club

    And I guess this means I'll be back in D status for a while... :( Grrrrrrr....
  15. MOJITO! Wrangler JL Club

    Everybody's ok, and no damage to the house. A big old white oak tree (100+ feet tall) came down in a thunderstorm last night. Took out all three of our cars, including the JL. I'll post some pics once they get the tree off the car. I'm guessing it's a total loss, as all four doors pretty much...

    Noooooooooo! I received my Mojito wranger 6 days ago, and woke up to this...
  17. USB port was working now it isn’t sorta...

    Just adding a "me too" to this thread. The front USB ports in my 5 day old Sahara have failed. I was using them with Android Auto, but now there's no light / power / connection on the ports. (Double checked w/ several different cables / devices). The other USB ports are still working fine, and I...

    It has arrived. :) This was a quick and dirty pic, but really highlights the color gradient with this paint.
  19. MOJITO! Wrangler JL Club

    Wow, that was quick. I went from D1 a couple of days ago to KZ status today. I'm now in the queue for shipping by truck, although it sounds like that might take a while. For those that are trying to figure out some sort of pattern to order fulfillment, here's my order info: Order date: 4/16...
