    Hello, howdy, greetings, bonjour, top of'da mornin' to'ya, So I just reached 3600 kilometers or so on the odometer (about 2200 miles) on my better than yours Sarge green Willys rig...and my oil life status says it's at 86 %. Now, correct me if i'm wrong but that's crazy high. Is this simply...

  3. WAZE speakers issues

    Hello, bonjour. Well, that’s first for me. I have an issue using Waze. As soon as I press on the app icon, two of my front speakers turn off. They will randomly turn back on, then off again depending on the voice alert coming from WAZE. It specifically does that with WAZE. I even switched my...
  4. Proper winter tires: what's your pick?

    So winter's coming...In Eastern Quebec, that means 20 inches of snow to start your morning like a champ. A/T tires ain't cutting it. Even if they have the little snowflake on the sidewall. You do need proper winter rubbers. Because when that 20 inches of white stuff ices at -13F, you don't...
  5. New-ish owner's notes after a couple of days driving the '21 Willys

    I waited so long for my new and second Willys JL that I nearly forgot how it drove. Some notes on my brand new 6MT '21 Willys. - Drives like a charm. It's cool, calm and collected, yet bumpy enough to feel like you're properly driving something different. - That 6MT is good, but not great...
  6. After 6 months waiting…

  7. Unexpected turn of events: my Jeep's incoming

    So, some of you know i've been waiting for my Wrangler since months. I had no news from my dealer, no VIN, nothing. I even went on a rant here, just to vent my frustration. Turns out some bloke cancelled his 6MT Willys order at a dealer in Quebec. Mine jumped on the opportunity and called me...
  8. So...should I get a JK (JL simply not being delivered in Canada)?

    Just reached my dealer. Still nothing new about my JL order (placed it in April). This is becoming a joke. So i'm looking at options. Should I simply get a used JK? Some folks say they are pigs to drive. Should I simply get something else? 4Runners are kind of appealing. Should I simply wait?
  9. Car(makers) trends you hate the most

    Some carmakers seem te be very keen about strange trends nobody asked for. I, for one, genuinely hate some of them. 1- Overly exaggerated center consoles They look nice and shiny now. But they'll be obsolete in about 2 years. To make sure you want to buy another car soon, carmakers are putting...
  10. Intrusive safety features: it's going way too far.

    A friend of mine just bought a fully loaded R-Design Volvo XC40, recently. Nice looking car. He wanted to me to drive it to see how good it was. So I did. He left all the safety features on. I gotta say: while i'm the first in line to applause how safe the cars are these days, I must say they...
  11. Did you know? They're still making the almighty Lada Niva!

    Johnny Smith just reviewed the 2021 model. So Renault bought Lada and they're still doing the Niva. It's still pretty basic with a deluxe package that comes with electric windows, A/C and...a radio. Wow. I had the opportunity to drive one last year. A friend of mine bought a '95 model with...
  12. So this is silly...

    Hi. Bonjour. That stupid Quebecer that'll probably botch half of his sentences again because english is his second language. Hey, how you doin'. That's me. So yeah, I fell into the mighty money pit. My steel bumper has arrived. My winch has arrived. My custom dog crate has arrived. My Gobi roof...
  13. When are you using 4H and 4L on your Wrangler?

    Hello there, bonjour. So life has its ways and my '21 Willys got rear ended before I had the opportunity to drive it during our cold and harsh Quebec winters. So basically, I'm pretty sure I didn't even touch the transfer case lever once before it got wrecked by a semi. So my question is: when...
  14. Some colors cancelled?

    A member of my family was interested a billet silver metallic Wrangler, recently. Dealer told him that all the orders, for this color, were simply cancelled in Canada. Is the shortage also affecting certain colors?
  15. Thinking of cancelling my order (after a phone call from the dealer)

    8 months. My dealer just called. He's about 95% sure my order won't get here (Quebec, Canada) before January. November at best. Because of the production hell we now know. I'm thinking of cancelling my order and shop for another vehicle. But then again, it'll be the same elsewhere. A used JK...
  16. Cars you would look for if you couldn't get a Wrangler or a Gladiator.

    Let's imagine a world where you couldn't get a Wrangler or a Gladiator for one reason or the other. What are the cars you'd probably look for?
