Another world-class video production, that's as entertaining as ever. The wayalife you depict in your videos was a motivator in acquiring our own Jeep sooner--rather than later. And, just this past Thursday, we had dinner with Dave Thompson. Great guy. Was a hoot to see Dave, and Wicked Jeeps...

Last week, my wife and I went wheeling at Rocks & Valleys, here in Michigan. Had a good day, thought it wasn't without a few moments anxiety. R&V, in Harrison Twp, is a couple hours' drive for us. This time of year, on a Friday, you have to go to the ski lodge nearby, to check in and pay your...

In a word, Nice! 4 powertrains, including a smaller turbo-based engine that puts out more than the 3.6L. A revised 3.6L with start/stop tech. All-electric in 2020. And the much anticipated diesel with (IIRC) 442 ft/lb torque. Yeah Baby! 33" rubber, standard on Rubicon as well. Electric canvas...

I abandoned Craftsman a decade-plus ago. Quality just isn't there. Over the years, bought a mix of S&K, some snap-on, and then I discovered Kobalt. I like Kobalt. Haven't had any issues. I hope they carry them in parallel (probably won't) for a while. Craftsman quality isn't going to come back...

One of the last remaining Super-K's, one I grew up going to as a kids, closed not to long ago. Just another big retail facility abandoned and turning decrepit. Sad. The last time I was in a Kmart, maybe 10 years ago now, it was dingy, dirty, poorly lit. Nearby, a Target: bright, fresh, clean...

Interesting thread. I haven't looked at my data in a while, so this was a good excuse. Jeep: 2015 JKU Rubicon Tires: Stock Lift: Leveling Most significant 'weight' addition would be EVO armor. So far this year: Fillups: 55 Miles: 18,112 Avg. MPG: 15.9 Avg. Range: 250 Cost: $1,647...

Well, something over 40K on Stitch now, our JKU, looks like its time for new ball joints. After a recent wheeling trip, started hearing something metallic rattling, related to the suspension. The noise tends to occur when the suspension might be ‘floating’ or lightly loaded, like across a...

New Headlights - HC HiLites Gravity Pro LEDs Stitch is a rather docile looking vehicle. Pale round headlights didn't help. To some degree, I'm sure that has contributed to traffic interactions, getting cut off on the expressway, turning left in front of me... Regardless of reason, didn't see...

Last week, my wife and I took a trip into Michigan's Upper Peninsula. In 4 days we covered just over 1,600 miles, with about 150 being off-road. Michigan's DNR ORV site is a real aid for those not familiar with the area. There are about 60 state ORV routes documented and provided in GPX, SHP...

Got a Name! After careful family deliberations, he has a name now:

Michigan. Don't know about specific legalities. Requires two mirrors here as well. Never had an issue going doorless nor heard of anything. So, G2G!

Thanks. Finally made a point to figure it out. First stop, clear the browser cache. I'd been seeing this: Cleared the cache, back to normal.

Congratulations! And, Thank You both:) It's been a pleasure.

It was a work day today. Stitch took me to my photo shoot. It's something of a game. If I can get away with it, I like to have Stitch show up somewhere during the shoot. Most of the time it doesn't happen. I try to park down the street or out of site. For commercial properties, Stitch is 'just...

At 34.5K, just about out of warranty, ended up with a few things pop up following my Drummond Island trip. Figured, better get into the dealer pronto. Nothing obvious happened to cause it, but the steering wheel ended up getting cocked to one side. Jeep still drives straight w/o pulling. That...

Howdy, With the forum's new user interface, I seem to be missing how to add photographs to a post. Suggestions? Tried searching, figure I'm missing something obvious. ?

This past week, made the opportunity to visit Michigan's Drummond Island. We were blessed with comfortable temperatures and rain forecast that never materialized. Much like the videos you may have seen, once you're off the pavement, you tend to either be on rock, or in trenches (filled with...

While I support the sentiment, I subscribe to the view of, 'best to leave while you're still a bit hungry.' Hate to overdue it after all :).
