    Horn usage & etiquette

    True that. The most time I see people on their phones is on the highway. There is a huge difference safety wise when people are on their phone not moving at a stoplight, than when they are going 70+ on the highway. Going to get themselves or somebody else killed!

    May Gladiator sales (2584 units)

    That’s a lot! At first, I was skeptical about the gladiator. It’s starting to grow on me a little bit though. I mean, I won’t buy one but I’m happy it’s not a failure. (Yet)

    Let's hear your best driving stories

    Here is the perfect place to tell all of your best driving stories! I know that everybody has had something interesting happen to them on the road. Let’s hear it! I’ll start with this: Once me and my dad were on a road trip about 8 years ago. We were going from Minnesota to Toledo, Ohio. One of...

    Horn usage & etiquette

    Here nobody honks, and I mean NOBODY! Myself included. I understand the reasons for it but if I’m not in a hurry (which I’m usually not) I won’t honk. I also don’t want to get into an unnecessary confrontation with someone who’s having a bad day.

    The unfortunate JKU & JLU of the day thread

    Honestly, I’d buy that. Then I would immediately replace the bumper!

    Fuel gauge reading wrong?

    My fuel gauge drops insanely fast when it reaches the red warning line (which is at maybe about 1/6th of a tank left). Next thing I know it says that I have no gas left. When I refill the tank it only puts in around 10-11 gallons, and the owners manual says it holds 14. Does it hold that much...

    When do you wave?

    There is a gray JLU rubicon I see driving around my town a lot. I know it’s the same one because it has a vanity plate on it. Half the time there is a woman driving and the other half, a man is behind the wheel. I wave every time, the guy always waves back. The gal, however, gives me a stare...

    Saw my first Gladiator today

    I like the look of the rubicon’s, but the base model doesn’t look proportional. I still have yet to see one in the wild though.

    When do you wave?

    Now that it’s getting sunny in Minnesota there are a lot more jeeps on the road. Since I’m still relatively new to the Jeep world there are some things I need to clear up. The main question is: Do you wave when your on a divided highway or road? Not necessarily the interstate but more of a four...

    What is the best trim restorer out there?

    It seems to be like it will be lot of trial and error until I find something I like. I’ll try the paint thinner and linseed oil and see how that works. Thanks!

    What is the best trim restorer out there?

    The fenders on my Jeep have gotten gray and faded over the years. I have the original fenders and I don’t want to pay for new ones just yet. What is the best trim restorer that you have used? I have also seen people use heat guns to darken the plastic too. I don’t want it to be too much money...
