yeah, now that they've confirmed it, it's a accident waiting to happen liability and they have to get it on record they instructed you not to drive it.
They want to leave the jeep outside in their lot for 2 weeks in the snow etc, which I am not impressed with.
The -41 degrees from the winter storm does not seem good for the Jeep!
Yeah I’d say it’s time to move. I grew up in Rochester NY which gets its share of below zero weather. Moved away about as soon as I could. Batteries don’t like it that cold that’s for sure. Always had to carry jumper cables when I lived there. Though we had a so called polar vortex a few years ago with double digit below zero F days In Virginia. Might have to start looking out West. Retirements coming up in a few years I think I’d rather be somewhere warmer.
Winters there are probably a bit different than when you grew up. They are certainly different now than when I grew up up there. Lot less cold and snowy.
Virginia weather is very mild - they do go crazy whenever first snow is reported ... we literally had plow trucks salt the roads and ready to plow because some rain came through. I've gotten so sick of driving it through the wash every other day to get the salt off (i did run pb blaster surface shield on the frame rails though). Last year i don't think we got any snow - maybe flurries (which they did panic for and salt all the roads).
Are you saying I’m old? I do remember the winter of 78 we had snow drifted all the way up to the roof at my parents house. I went up there last year for Christmas and it snowed pretty good but your right not like those global cooling years. I think it was 77 when Newsweeks cover was all about the coming ice age and man made global cooling. Seemed fairly plausible when we got multiple big storms that next year.
Yeah we got a decent covering last night and today. Probably three or four inches but the roads are covered in salt and that gravel they put down which tears up paint and windshields. I don’t think we’ve had any snow for a couple years before this and yeah they put so much down your vehicle turns white.
I’m not saying it you did by the retiring comment. lol you got me beat by a lot of years I’m guessing. Farthest back I remember is the blizzard of 93.
Haha you got me there I am old. But when I was thirty I was convinced I’d be able to retire by the time I hit forty. That didn’t age so well, thirty was thirty years ago now.
Deleting the aux battery is a bad idea.
What OverlanderJK said ^^^
Buying a 392 or disabling ESS with the delete? LOLThe second battery is for smoother electronic stop/start. The 392 does not have an aux battery since there is no ESS. That is the best way to do a battery delete.
Buying a 392, I did that last Friday.
Sorry, never figured it out and I had to give it back before it happened again. It really was the damnedest thing.
