remove floor plugs, then if:
Leak in rear, park nose up.
Leak in front, park nose down.
HA! I got a real kick out of that one... and I already thought of it! My hubby's parking space dips down in the back...I guess I will have to steal his spot on rainy days. The rubber bar along the back window bottom sits behind the top of the gate.. the gate smashes it behind when I close it . It appears that the canvas top edge overhangs a tad and I would think that rain would drip below that rubber line???? I think it might be the corner where the gate pivots open , the very far edge as it's not wet across the back inside, just in the far right corner, BAD.
The rain has let up a little and I didn't want to drive my sopping Jeep to work today, thinking that if I parked her in a different position that I might come out to standing water under my drivers side SO I took my lonely Explorer... it was quite comical. I was driving along thinking how cushy and nice and dry the ride was... just cruisin' along.....thinking how utterly ......boring.... it ....was....... with no 5 speed.... watching all the other Jeepers flying by... resisting the urge to wave
... I kept thinking OOOH, there's a Jeeper! No NO! Don't wave you fool.. you are not in your Jeep, dingdong.....It's funny when I am in my Jeep and other Jeepers don't wave it's like my balloon popped .....ppssssssssss...and I say Oh, they didn't WAAAVVE!! My hubby says oh for God's sake, they weren't even looking!
Sometimes I just wanna wave to EVERYONE!!! WEEEEEEE! Hi everybody!
urple: I'm in my way cool fun JEEEPPP! ( Of course they don't know the cuffs of my jeans are danglin' in one inch of dirty water pooled up under my feet!) Sheer insanity I tell ya... sheer insanity!! What IS that??? And you are thinking WHAT IN THE BLEEP IS SHE TALKIN' ABOUT??!! She is truly wacked! HA HA HA HA!!!
But really now, I am going to XMZ (examine my zipper)
urple: and the entire back window area and see what I can find. I asked the neighbor to stop over, he never did. His wife says ( like I am a total idiot) "Put a tarp over it." Like what are ya, stupid or what??" I told her I don't own a tarp as I never had a vehicle that I had to shelter from the elements before that IS the cars job... not mine!.......I'm thinking "I IRON MY CLOTHES EVERY DAY WOMAN!!!! Me? own a tarp?!! PUH-LEEZE!" :lol:
Who knows, perhaps it will be like the ole leaky roof.... you only worry about it when it's rainin'!!! I really don't mind a little leak here and there, but I seriously don't wanna be packing my add a trunk with towels every time it rains. I told my husband perhaps I should sell it to someone who lives in the desert in Arizona..... he said DUH, that's why it's called a Sahara!!! :lol:
And one final thing as you head-bob reading this long thing... I wrestled out the add a trunk last night under cover of dark as it stopped raining for a few minutes. I recruited my littlest daughter , age 8, to help as hubby did his part loosening the nuts around the trunk... (thanks, dear....yer a real PAL... next time yer a** can ride on the rough and tumble!) I got it all loosened and got inside and my daughter was standing behind the trunk. I said "Now okay, listen..... while I lift up this trunk thing, you push that carpet back toward me so I can slip it out......and hold on to that 16" by 16" sub woofer back there too.... come on now....do mommy proud!! Don't drop that sub, honey, Good Lord, don't drop Mommy's sub!... pay attention... this is stuff you will need to know later in life....." She was grunting and panting.... trying to do 10 things at once while I am yelling.... "GEEEZZ! This trunk thing is heavy... If I blow a friggin' O ring...Where is DADDDDYYYY! Damn.!!!!.. he's watchin' that stinkin' TIVO and I am out here bustin' my butt!!!!" :x She then says ( so wise for her years...) Mom.. if YOU want Daddy out here, just ASK him, he doesn't KNOW you are havin' trouble!!!! and I reply.. oh HEEEE KNOWWSSS!! .....trust me.... he knows... HA! It really wasn't that dramatic, I like to sprinkle a little "funny" on things.... it wasn't fun, and she did help me out a great deal and no one was harmed in the process. Thanks for all the help everyone. I appreciate it, a lot! Hopefully we will figure it out soon.
