  1. Am I the only silly person running winter tires on a Rubicon?

    Great looking tires and a smart choice! There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with equipping your vehicle for the environment you are driving in. Those tires may not be as flashy as a new steel bumper, suspension lift, or winch but they are purposely built to maximize your chances of getting to...
  2. Flat Tow Milage question

    Good to know about the mileage tracking while towing, I always wondered. As we enjoy the RV life, getting a rig that could tow instead of being towed may be in our future. Side note...I could just imagine how high your MPG would be if the Jeeps computer tracked flat tow mileage. 1000 miles...

  4. MOAB...I just don't understand

    Okay...for the record...the Rubicon is a great package and if I had the need for what the Rubicon brings to the table I probably would have gone that way but I've had my fun beating the snot out of a vehicle and fixing them. That said, as I have followed this tread waiting for my Moab to arrive...
  5. Oil Pan Skid Plate

    Even though you plan on taking lighter trails...any trail may have "gotchas" that you don't see. I once rolled over a bent and partially covered fence t-post laying down on a trail that immediately shot up to my floor pan. Luckily, no real damage...but I didn't see it. Getting anything that...
  6. Hard Top Maintenance?

    I didn't mean anything by that...hope you didn't think I was calling you out. I was just trying to clarify the products purpose and share a slightly frustrating story.:like:
  7. Hard Top Maintenance?

    Turtle Wax Ice isn't like a "normal" car wax. I used a standard car wax on my TJ spice hard top once and it looked great when first applied...then spent the next two years getting the chalky film off the darn thing. The Ice product is formulated to not leave that residue but I can't provide...
  8. After 2 months of waiting.....she’s finally home!

    Not sure if you picked your Jeep up this weekend or not but...like you, I have been waiting 2 months (about 3 weeks for my Jeep to make the 100 mile trip to the dealer from where it got of the rails) and, quite frankly, I'm starting to feel like a dog waiting for his treat :LOL:. Good on you if...
  9. How many batteries do I have

    From what I've seen on video...yes. It's under the main battery and to the rear of it. It's not to convenient to get to.
  10. Top down with kids?

    Some of my daughters best childhood memories include road/trail trips with our TJ in open sky mode. My enjoyment would come from adjusting the rearview so I could see her sitting back there taking everything in with a huge smile on her face. Enjoy your Jeep!
  11. Best Jeep EVER

    Can't wait to get our JLU! Love our TJ even with the harsh ride and all the squeaks/leaks/smells:rock: but test driving the JL was EYE OPENING:)
  12. Oil Change on first 1000 miles

    If you are thinking about changing your oil and filter at 1000 miles...do it. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that! You will most likely drain usable oil and toss a functional filter but it will remove any question on whether you should or shouldn't, it absolutely will not hurt your...
  13. Nice and warm this morning......

    On a side note...if you were on the fence deciding on a cold air intake, here's your chance. I figure that's why everyone has a more difficult time keeping their cars on the road during the winter...all those added horsepowers! Just kiddin, stay toasty my friends
  14. Are KM2's Really That Bad?

    Hmmmm....don't have our Moab yet but this thread is giving me second thoughts on the planned immediate tire swap. Thank you
  15. Which type of wax?

    The type of paint protection you end up choosing should really all depend on what you want for protection or your desired “look”. A sealant will last longer, give better overall protection and a great shine but most wont give the deep wet look of the old carnauba paste waxes, which may only...
  16. MOAB...I just don't understand

    :like: That's clever right there...
  17. Cleaning the plastic windows (scratch removal)

    There is really nothing you can do if your soft plastic windows are scratched, that I know of. The soft top windows are not a hard plastic like...say...headlight housings which can be buffed down to remove the damaged area. The best thing you can do is keep the plastic clean to minimize the...
  18. Washing the Jeep

    I also use a blower to remove as much water as possible. Chase all the water streaks the blower leaves with a plush microfiber and your Jeep will be dry in no time and water spot free. :rock: The less you drag anything over paint the better...
  19. Washing the Jeep

    The body shop folks told me that auto manufacturers moved to water-based paints years ago. Besides the reduced environmental impact and cost of paint, the cure time of the paint is reduced dramatically. By the time your Jeep was delivered to you the paint was fully cured and can be waxed. I...
