THE JEEP THREAD > All Things Jeep (2 Viewers)

This Scout is so so awesome. Pics don't do it justice.  Folks fawn over it everywhere I go. At lights, people follow me and strike up conversation, in parking lots. Most people have no idea what it is. Some do. The reactions are so fun. Absolutely love it. I'm a "Scout guy" now.

Added a rearview mirror with backup camera.  Great stuff. Also added the Sirius module and sat antenna to my stereo. Only catch is the reception is terrible, probably these buffoons didn't place it well. It's on the dash. Even without a roof on it, the reception is really bad. Anyone have experience with that?

4G's ?

 
Missed this earlier. Those are the ones I posted. They work great - I have that whistle too.
I had a set of mirrors for when I take the doors off, but they shook like crazy, and actually "fell" down, as in was looking straight at the ground if I went above ~25 mph.  How do these hold up?

These are great. I've had my top and doors off for over a year and I haven't had one issues with the mirrors.

 
I just got a set of those too, but the weather around here has been so crappy, I have't been able to take the door off yet. Also got a set of these to use when the doors finally are off.

 
 I have been obsessing over the new JLU and even more over the JT. 

This will be my first wrangler I'm coming from an F-150.  My plan is to hold off and see the JT as I would like to still have a pickup bed. 

 
Sorry, the JK was the last of the real Jeeps. :excited:
Haha I don't know enough yet about Jeeps but ive heard people say the JK is the most boring of all the Jeeps. 

But the JL is the only reasons I'm looking at Wranglers for the first time. I want the modern convinces and safety.  Plus the pickup is a whole new ball game. 

 
Haha, yeah, I'm screwing with you.  It seems the owners of the previous generation's always scorn the new model.  There are owners of CJ's who still don't recognize the YJ. 

 
But the Jeep pickup is no new thing. Love it but not new.

With the flooding here in Houston they put out a call for blankets and pillows at a local shelter. Corny thing to notice, I know, but I was Jeep #2 in a line of 3 to drop off donations.

 
Got an email from Quadratec today, my name was pulled for $2000 in Rubicon Express parts(bought something in August and was automatically registered). Figured it was a scam but did a little digging and it looks legit.

Wasn't planning on lifting this jeep but that's all RE really sells is lift kits.

Get the kit and sell it, or sell the certificate. I can assist with this through my club if needed.

I'm thinking about doing this because there are a bunch of things I want like bumpers and lockable storage.  I'll hit you up when I get more details next week.

 
Got lucky in a Fanduel contest and will be picking up a new Unlimited Rubicon.  Really don't like the red dash so I'll probably wait for the Ocean Blue with the tan interior.

New Jeep


You won a new Wrangler? Dude that's awesome I've been following the new JL build for months.. What a great ride.

You and ECB are both lucky! We'll be working on buddy's Rubicon early next year right after we finished installing the new tires and cycle country plow on his ATV. He's getting the parts from Quadratec.

 
Chrysler was running a great deal for their suppliers last week on Jeeps. So I got my wife got a Jeep Cherokee Overland.  Drove it for the first time yesterday.  Dam..what a nice vehicle!

 
I passed a JLUR today, almost stopped in the middle of traffic to talk to the guy
A new Sahara showed up in my work parking lot last week. I've seen one other on the road and that's it. 

I wanted to wait for the Ocean Blue but once I finally got around to seeing the color I decided I didn't like it. Ended up ordering the Granite. 

 
Well, looks like the Willys Wheeler may be toast.  Wife and I got hit Saturday night by a motorcycle being chased by the police and doing 100 MPH+.  We're both OK, just shook up and a little sore but I suspect the JK may be totaled. Really liked this Jeep.  

 
Rocky Ridge edition JLs now sitting at my local dealer.  If I didn't have my Scout and such a love for these old trucks, I'd be really tempted.

Glad you're ok, what happened to the person on the motorcycle? I can't believe a motorcycle hit a jeep hard enough to total the jeep, that's crazy. What an awful experience.
