1064284 A Nova, huh? Well, at least he was braver than I am. I know my jeep has the stuff to do what it needs to, but I'm new to off-roading, and I felt like I was going to tip over, and I was basically afraid to use the gas pedal. I had it in four wheel even on dry ground, and kept killing...

1074722 64. You apply sunscreen before you go to Wal-Mart.[addsig]

1075611 I missed the Metallica bandwagon by a few years...but this whole anit-music download thing is ridiculous, to me. I mean, all you need to do is find someone w/ the cd and burn it. Anybody remeber the late 80's through mid 90's when tapes were still around and you could just record off...

1075652 A telephone is a necessary service in life, like water, electricity, and gasoline. People get paid to set up companies and distrubte these necessities. Music, to me anyway, is not a necessity, it is an aesthetic. Musicians need to make a living, yes, I understand...I guess I'm just...

1076366 If you have the money, buy the hoist...it looks much neater and more secure than the strap method. I say this b/c mine hangs in our garage by four of the cable straps...they were almost $20 a piece, and I realize now that I might as well have bought the hoist. To me, the hoist looks...

1065044 Yeah, it just happened to me, I was not really sure what was up, but mine is okay now, I just went somewhere else, came back, and it was okay. Sort of like the old trick of turning your computer off, then back on again.[addsig]

1065255 Hey, you should celebrate your ownership by cruising down (up? over?) later in the week![addsig]

1065271 I agree the most important thing is no rust. The body is really the most important thing on a jeep...windows, seats, etc. are so easily replaceable, and you can do that as you go, save up, do another replacement sort of thing. As long as you have a solid base to work with, you are...

1065301 "However you said your buddy has a 6 cycl....the looks may impress the girls...but tell him to buy a real one..and if you race him, just climb over it" (sorry, I don't know how to do real quote boxes like everyone else) Hey, don't worry because just as guys think there is nothing...

1065310 Oh, I'm not trying to offend the mustangers, anyway, the 60's mustangs are a completley different car! My first car was a 67 camero, cherry condition...too bad I wrecked it (beyond repair) three weeks later. Don't give a sixteen year old girl that much horse power! Anyway, if you'd...

1065412 Oh please tell me you can get leather seats in a wrangler. I cannot believe it. It's too much. I want some.[addsig]

1065623 Well, I've really been paying attention to RPMs the past few days. It looks like I'm shifting at about 2000, a little over. This is when my motor sounds ready (had to turn down the music), and when my jeep likes to shift. You know, people are always talking about the little shift...

1065624 They are all great. I drive a TJ, and it is the best one for me because I don't know how to work on cars, and I drive mine every day so I need something I can count on all the time, sorry to say it but air conditioning, carpet, ya know? The thing about jeeps, though, is they are like a...

1066257 Well, if you want to buy yourself some time to work on your jeep, then buy your gf something. How about a cool piece of jewelry? It's sort of like your car...jeep starts whining, you buy her something, right? Well, girls start whining, you need to go buy them something. You obviously...

1066260 There was a recall on some of the 01 models...prob. been a year. You could ask the dealer what models were recalled. I believe it was something w/ the ignition switch. I'd make sure the previous owner took it in, (if her model was one of the recalls), while the jeep is still under...

1066966 What a great ride! Not only do you have a cool jeep, but you live in California?!? I'm so jealous. I've heard the weather there is great for your car. I'm checking out one of the schools there for some grad work...not sure I can leave the good ol Midwest, though! In Indiana you would...

1066967 Oh...and LOL on the stealing gas from the parent's lawn mower supply. Such a classic move. I wonder if I'll remember that one when I have kids...I sure hope so. [addsig]

1067038 Sully, I'm such a dork for knowing this, but: Go to your local library. Ask for the section on automotive repair. I'm from a small town, and our library still has a huge reference section w/ Chilton and Mitchell manuals. You can find the make and model of just about any car, any year...

1067040 First of all...want to thank you for being so brave to be a member of the AF. I know I love my freedom. Secondly...is your jeep in Germany w/ you? I'm sure you're sad if it is not, but a lot of the pros on this sight post some really great off roading pictures, so maybe that will cheer...

1067974 I've actually gotten what I thought was a "tracker wave", when some guy in a tracker waved to me. I returned the wave before I realized what was happening I wanted to chop my hand off...good thing I waved, though. Turns out that I knew the guy, and his wife, b/c I had played guitar at...
