An oldie of my TJ at Anza Borrego, CA

No worries. You got a great deal and shared it with us. You meant well. Hopefully someone else gets the same person who packed yours. 😆

Just received my 4 bags for $40+shipping. I think you got lucky and someone didn't do the order correct. So, it is in fact, 2 bags for $20+shipping, or $10 a bag. Still good, but not as good as $5 a bag.

When it drives straight after an alignment and you go back to the shop to tell them they did it wrong.

When it runs quietly and smoothly and you feel like something must be wrong with it.

Hmm. I was thinking 9 years of EVs made a difference in people's driving behaviors. It may just be a regional thing...people are pretty impatient here. Or, i may have changed my MT driving behaviors. Need to start driving like I stole it. Lol. All my vehicles, with the exception of that...

Hmm. Good point. I agree many shift too early...imagine if we followed the shift alert light on our TJs. Lol I used to shift in the mid 3K with my stock gears. I see myself shifting high 2K or low 3K with the 4.88 gears.

I actually have thought about accelerating faster and longer in 1st, but people would still get up on my ass and have to deal with that deceleration between gears, now at a higher speed. A loud muffler may help announce to other drivers I have a MT. I used to have the full Banks exhaust system...

That tire cover is a great idea! Now that you mentione it, I saw a teenage girl in an electric vehicle behind me at a red light. I released my brake in preparation to shift to first at green, and saw her start driving forward when my brake lights went off. I think her car stopped for her before...

I agree. With the stock TJ clutch, I don't mind stop and go traffic. I've driven through AZ without issues, usually towing my trailer. The first time someone honked at me I thought something was wrong with my Jeep. I almost stopped to see what was going on. By the second time, I started paying...

I used to daily drive my YJ in the 1990s and early 2000s, and my previous TJ from 2008 to 2017, both manuals. I've had an automatic daily commuter during the past 9 years, so no need to daily my TJ in that time. One of my kids got that commuter for college and I went back to daily driving my...

Damn! I was offered $30K for mine (#1095) when it was at 34,xxx miles, now 42,xxx miles, and I wouldn't let it go. I have it dialed to my needs so well, it is worth more to me.
