If you want to verify the gas your using is actually a top tier fuel then Top tier linky. Just select country and brand. If you don’t see the brand then it’s not top...

Did an easy 19 mile night run last night in the desert. First time making this run at night on a trail I have done many times. Totally different experience. Shadows and darkness change everything and made the run feel like it was my first time.
Start is 8 miles outside of Las Vegas at Mt...
Out here in Vegas we have many 4x4 shops. Most people have no idea about the off road community and trails we have out here. Years ago I took my JKU for suspension upgrade to the Vegas 4x4 shop up near the speedway racetrack. Absolute best care and quality of their work in the many years I...
Happen today in central Texas this morning. Young family member hit some black ice on the highway. I was told he walked away from Wrangler before ambulance carted him away on a stretcher.

8,000 miles and the drivers rear shock sprung a leak. Took the Jeep to the dealer for a new replacement under warranty.

I’m out here in the desert so I pull, clean and check the air filter every so often after a trail run. And without fail every time I manage to drop at least one of the air box screws. Problem is the screws are black, the engine is black, the hoses are black the space is dark etc. you get...
Living in Las Vegas we have 1,000s of miles of off road trails located nearby. Plenty of abandoned mines, ghost town and simply weird/unique sites. There are many off road clubs to choose from ranging from mild to wild. Yesterday I went out with the “Desert Wranglers” we had permission from...
After finishing a tour of the Spoetzl brewery I find a nice red Rubi gladiator parked next to us. It could of been anyone that walked by but I’m gonna guess it was the Rubi driver. I get to the passenger door and I find my pocket knife resting on the door handle.
It had to of fallen out...

Those half door are built solid, they are secure and don’t rattle. The Jeep lives with no roof or...
Curious if you got your new Wrangler with a free full tank of gas? The Monroney sticker shows 4 gallons of fuel (with charge) on new Wranglers. I was wondering if some dealers out there are not filling up the tank when you drive off the lot?
I would not be surprised to hear “inflation” or...
Yesterday, I wanted to test drive a diesel wrangler. According to a dealers website there were a couple rubicon’s on the lot so off I went.
Me - I am looking for a JLURD

Me - Why would you think I am looking for a right...
