  1. Wave Snob

    In Japan the Jeep Wave does not exist, but I wish it did. Is the Jeep Wave only in the US? What about Europe, Australia, South America or other regions? Is the Jeep Wave to all Jeeps or just Wranglers? And while we're at it, what is the proper wave -- like a "hello" wave or more of a cool few...
  2. Badmouthing Jeep

    Great point, and nice to read so many viewpoints. Another angle is that releasing/venting about some issues and finding others who share the same problems may be therapeutic to some degree, kind of like when a parent asks about their kids/babies symptoms and gets relieved that many experience...
  3. How well do the safety packages work?

    Same thing happened to me and my wife (once with me and once with her) on separate occasions, both in enclosed parking lots inside a structure. Scared us and my coffee almost went flying into the dashboard. Many false positives with the sound warning too when driving under a...
  4. ROW (rest of world) Spec and Questions

    Haha Yes, but it's a Jeep so based on all the other threads won't the dealer service just tell me that's how they all are :CWL:
  5. ROW (rest of world) Spec and Questions

    Oh for sure it does! Otherwise I wouldn't have paid the premium for a Rubicon. But with the other hidden "deletes," I got worried so I confirmed that it has Dana44 front and back and was relieved they (AD Technician) told me it does.
  6. ROW (rest of world) Spec and Questions

    All Rubicons here only came with the Penastar 3.6. Mine was a Japan-specific limited edition (package bundle) to promote the Sky One-Touch. It automatically came with the 3.6 and pretty much fully loaded. You still cannot get the Sky One-Touch option on the Rubicon here since it was only...
  7. ROW (rest of world) Spec and Questions

    Thanks- that's interesting I'll have to read up on it. The other interesting thing is the layout of the engine bay is different here....I was going crazy at first thinking maybe it was a model year change but the layout of the engine bay in Japan hasn't changed since JL's launch. I'll post my...
  8. ROW (rest of world) Spec and Questions

    Thanks for your comments and also super cool Jeep! I talked to my Jeep AD and service technicians and they told me there is only one battery. Oddly the manual also doesn't mention anything about a secondary battery. (I downloaded the US manual and compared with the Japanese manual and there are...
  9. ROW (rest of world) Spec and Questions

    Appreciate the reply. Very true, Japan does actually have super strict regulations, for instance tires cannot stick out of fenders. But it doesn't look like the bigger OEM tires on a US Rubicon stick out from the fenders either....Anyways it's still a blast owning a Rubicon and more chances for...
  10. ROW (rest of world) Spec and Questions

    Thanks for sharing and very true about the Japan auto landscape. You may have seen more Toyotas in Nagoya area since that is their headquarters too. I live in Tokyo so there are many foreign imports and exotics, which makes my Yellow Rubicon actually more unique in a way. Driving a JLU...
  11. ROW (rest of world) Spec and Questions

    2nd Month into owning an Unlimited Rubicon in Japan(sidebar- Jeep is the best selling US brand here........ https://www.thedrive.com/sheetmetal/14782/jeep-is-by-far-the-hottest-american-brand-in-japan ). Loving it so far, but also noticing differences with the US Rubicon and was hoping somebody...
  12. What did you do WITH your Jeep today.

    Awesome pics, esp. the last one. I have a 21 month old who also loves that "driving" position.
  13. Members old and new -- check in and wave hello!

    Hi I'm new to Jeep and to this forum but excited to catch up. Recently took delivery of a new JLUR in Tokyo. Wanted in Hellayella with a Sky One-touch Power Top but you could only get it with Japan's "special edition" version, so put a deposit down back in February this year and finally took...
