Heard that @UNC Rubicon is ready for a blower :LOL:!
I've been reading the manual transmission thread... I'm afraid I'm going to have to regear to something like 6.55s so I can have rocket launcher acceleration in overdrive...

I just had 1 of the 3 gear jobs for next week cancel. (Makes sense... he was coming from Ohio.)

If anyone needs gears done, hit me up.
You're a mechanical whore.

It's funny you mention this. I just texted Bret a couple days ago about feeling like a Jeep Hooker. They show up, get worked on, then leave with cash on the table. Lol.

An angry grill AND 20" wheels... FAIL. Seriously Shawn, I thought more of you. I am seriously questioning our relationship at this point. There is more to life than money and work and angry grills and 20s aren't it.

I’d be burning through tires and gears with all the drifting I could do :rock:

Just because you're Asian doesn't mean you need to drift everything... geesh.

Welcome, man, another Tar Heel here so be prepared for more trash talk ;). I’m down for another beginner ride too, the first time Uwharrie was a lot of fun but need more seat time to get comfortable with some of the angles I was sitting at. Where in Durham are you at? I’m over in Brier Creek.
Nice to meet you too! I'm right in downtown Durham, sort of by The Parlour Ice Cream and the Bull Statue. We should definitely meet up sometime!

@AndrewBJeep - Good looking Jeep!!! BTW, @chevymitchell didn't work on your CAR he worked on your JEEP... FAIL. Thanks to you God just killed a kitten.

Shawn must have been having flashbacks of building Fat Ninja while doing yours... lol.

Most of the guys out there are pretty cool, I'll let you figure out which are and which aren't.

Blue Jeeps really are the best, they can do all sorts of cool things that the other colors can't do like climb over parking blocks, park outside Starbucks, pose for pictures in front of The Gap, get groceries, etc... Try doing those in a non-blue Jeep!

Uwharie is a great place to go and cut your teeth and have some fun. Hopefully you will get bit by the off roading bug hard enough that you will want to journey West... whole other ball game out here. If you make it out I promise you (and anyone else) a good time.
Sounds great! My bad on the car mix-up, RIP to that kitten. In the meantime, i'll work on getting addicted to trails so I can come out west ASAP! Also, you're so right. There's something about a blue jeep parked on the curb at Harris Teeter that just hits different... lol.

Nice jeep...Interesting that ocean blue can look more purple than blue depending on the lighting.
It is wild isn't it... almost feels like a plum-blueberry color sometimes. But oh boy when you get it in direct sunlight does it shine like nothin else.

Hahaha. I work at the Teet in Kernersville. Management doesn’t take kindly to me parking on curbs. I’ll have to wait until we get a decent snow and park on a snow bank that the plows make.

That Jeep was the result of a guy that couldn't stop his Mod addiction; always looking for something to install next. He really was the meth head of jeep mods. I don't turn down work or judge. However... that angry grill and wheel combo was not installed by me. Haha. The best part... it was a sport. Tiny DANA 30 with 4.88's and a blower. Awwwwww.... snap! He never broke it though. He ended up selling this Jeep and his Aston Martin for a Ferrari.
