  1. 40K mileage review on 3.6L engine.

    I picked the 3.6L for my '19 also, but with the 8 speed. At 24K miles I have been quite impressed with the little 6 banger. It's not a barn burner, nor will it push you back into the seat at a WOT take off. It just goes about it's business without a grumble. It does everything I ask of it, and...
  2. E15? [WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    If the manual says you can run it, you're good to go. The thing I have noticed is the loss in mpgs negates any savings in the cost of the fuel.
  3. Are us middle class Jeepers going to be (fuel) forcefully priced out of enjoying our Jeeps? [CLOSED DUE TO POLITICS]

    The odd thing I have noticed is there doen't seem to be any less cars/trucks on the road. We just took a short trip to Florida, and I-95 was a mad house from South Carolina all the way to I-4 into Orlando. So my take away is many bitch and whine, but don't seem to adjust their driving habits. Oh...
  4. MPG expectations

    My first turbo engine is my '20 Ford Ranger. Took me a bit to find out why it was getting low mpgs. I realized that I was putting my right foot in the turbo when starting from a stop. After a while I got used to the thing, and all is well now. These little turbo engines are amazing. Good gas...
  5. Jeep ranked 32nd? Dead Last?! Wow.

    My thought's exactly. If you want a "Blahmobile" to get you from point A to point B then get any of CR's best picks. Myself, I'll stick with vehicles that are fun to drive. Life's too short to drive a boring vehicle. IMHO I thought I wanted a Camry once. So, I rented one to take on a short...
  6. Regrets?

    The 8 speed in my Jeep is better than anything Ford, and GM have produced in years. And, if you ordered the 4 door you will be surprised at the amount of space back there with the rear seats down. I haven't carried anything in my truck for the last 2 years that I couldn't have put in the back of...
  7. Carvana / Vroom January Pricing Cliff

    There is a Carvana refurb shop in my town. They have huge acreage, and it's completely full as of yesterday when I drove by. I even thought they may need to slow down, because the market isn't going to stay like it is forever. If they don't sell down their inventory, they are going to lose a ton...
  8. Thoughts on Advanced Safety Group

    I have it on my Jeep, and my 2 other drivers. With the way people drive these days every little bit helps.
  9. How did you spend your first drive when you picked up your JL?

    Our first real drive was westward from North Carolina. She had right at 400 miles on her when we left, and had 5200 on it's return home. Okaton, SD Lucille's Roadhouse, Route 66, Weatherford, OK In the Middle of Nowhere, New Mexico
  10. What year JL/ model and color is your parking brake handle?

    Update: I'm happy to report that the park brake handle on my Sahara is "SILVER". I'm feeling much better now. :)
  11. Is a Rubicon worth the price hike?

    Good deal, however we all know the old saying. Happy wife, happy........well you know the rest. :)
  12. Is a Rubicon worth the price hike?

    Darren, so happy to hear the good news about your wife's health. My suggestion, let her test drive both, and pick the one she likes best. She deserves it.
  13. Dealer falsified post-purchase satisfaction survey

    Now that's just sad. I wonder how these people lie so much, and still sleep at night. I must have a "unicorn" dealer, because they did everything on the list. As it was said, just let it go and enjoy your new Jeep. And like also said, never darken that delaers door again.
  14. New 2022 2 door 6spd Willys,

    I bought one from a dealer suggested here, and got a heck of a deal. Saved a ton over my dealers quote. Congratualtions on the new Willys Chris. Enjoy the ride.
  15. My Rubicon was totaled by an uninsured/unlicensed driver. What to try next? (dashcam video included)

    Sadly I have. Someone with no license, or insurance still driving just doesn't register on my "give a shit" meter anymore. If that would have been my son in the Jeep I would have gotten out, and stomped a mud hole in his ass. But, that may be just me.
  16. My Rubicon was totaled by an uninsured/unlicensed driver. What to try next? (dashcam video included)

    Dayum Adam, I'm glad the Jeep kept you safe. BTW, the Jeep Grand Cherokee, or Dodge Darango with the 5.7L have both caught my eye. I don't need either, but they would be some fun to drive with that Hemi under the hood.
  17. 2022 JL 3.6L V6- No longer providing Engine Cover

    Ford did this on the Ranger in 2020. However, Ford is the King of penny pinchers.
  18. Jeep owners and politics - uplifting observation

    Sadly all we see, and hear these day on the media is division. However, what I see when I'm out and about is good people going about their day with respect for others. Very seldom do I see any overt, and intentional disrespect. I don't care who, what, color, or sex you are. I don't care if you...
  19. For Those Who Change Their Own Oil: what do you drain into? How do you dispose of it?

    I agree. As a kid I would just drain the oil in the ditch, but times have changed. I'm not a tree hugger by any means, but it just makes sense to me that pouring in the ground isn't a good idea.
  20. For Those Who Change Their Own Oil: what do you drain into? How do you dispose of it?

    Like most others, I drain into a plastic pan I bought at Wally World for like 4 bucks. Then pour it into old gallon plastic water bottles, and take it to my County's recycle center when I get enough to make the trip.
