JL has the most capability off the showroom floor, with a TON of options available to special order. The power and highway ride are superior to every prior generation. And, they look good! But, TJ was the most iconic of the brand. JL has gotten to be a chonky heifer. Look at a TJ and JL...

2 Wranglers - '97 TJ 4L sport and the current '21 Rubicon 3.7L 2-door. Also had 2 mid-90's Grand Cherokees, one 6 cyl and one 8 cyl.

Most officers still wear their ballistic vests under the uniform shirt. On humid, 95+ degree days, once you get your core temperature up and start sweating under that vest (usually the first call of the shift), it is very hard to cool back down, much less dry out under that thing. The vest is...

Imma buy the most off-road focused vehicle made...and then lower it so it can't clear a speed bump in a school zone. Why? "Fu&# me, I have NO IDEA!"

Does the JTopsUSA have ANY effect on wind in the driver seat? I don't mind the airflow at all with the hard top and doors off, but my wife has long hair. Even with a pony tail her hair looks like an eagle's nest after a few minutes, and if she tries to wear a cap the buffeting tries to pull...

Dang, I remember that pamphlet! I slobbered on it for a couple of months before I ordered, then for the 6 months it took for my Jeep to arrive. Yep, I had the cracked exhaust manifold. It made that 6 cyl sound like it was farting. I had it welded twice, but eventually bought one from Banks...

Yep, I ordered my '97 TJ during that break, and it took 6 months to come in! First there was a hold on the 6 cyl engine, then the hard top. I ordered it with the factory tube bumpers in black, but they delivered it with chrome bumpers. Once I got everything sorted, I kept that Jeep for 14...

It seems to me that buffeting would be horrendous in that little back space. If only that back window could roll up! OR, have a glass rear window that could fold down and be strap secured...it appears it would fit within the tail gate. @Bestop is really leaving the modern iteration of the...

Every vehicle will hold water in the floorboard. The question is, how did your water get in? If the top was up and that water is the result of being in rain, you have a soft top issue and that sucks. When I had water like that in my floorboard, it was because I parked it with the top and...

I like your choice just fine. Personally, I don't get the "over-wide" thing...I think it looks goofy. And, wide tires just sling rocks and crud all over everything ALL THE TIME. Hard pass on that.

My Jeep is garage kept and leads a pretty sheltered life. But, I was taking the hard top off for the first time this season the other day and noticed the foam pad on the base of the hard top (where it sits against the body) had stuck to the body in a few places near the tail gate. On the...

Bigger tires without appropriate lift, IMO, make a Jeep look pudgy...like the tires are trying to lift the weight, but bitch just be too heavy. I haven't yet put 35's on my 2-door Rubicon because I think it will need a bit of lift to be 'proper' (and, I'm also looking for increased ground...

My TJ was (obviously) a 2-door, and I began missing it almost immediately after I sold it. I knew I f'd up. I intended to buy a used TJ when I bought my forever home on the Lake of the Ozarks, but the wife urged me to get a JL so she could enjoy the modern stuff (by Jeep standards). My kids...

A friend of mine used to be a tech at a Dodge dealership. He went the the fancy school and was their Viper tech, since a customer ordered a Viper SR10 Coupe. It was quite the event when the truck arrived to deliver it. As it rolled off, my buddy noticed a slew of tire marbles stuck to the...

I don't care what the rags say. If I could go back in time to March '21 and make my decision again...I wouldn't change a thing.

I have recently watched several vids from: Seek The Open He runs a mostly stock Rubicon 2-door (silver, too!), so watching his stuff is directly relevant to me. His stock plastic rear bumper is currently pretty mangled...😄
