Any events planned to be held near Northern VA? Noob here looking to have some (safe..[stock]) fun. :)

Shepherdstown, WV...right outta' Northern VA (thank god, lol)

The beauty of a Jeep is that it looks good both squeaky clean & dirty. That said, I personally prefer to have my vehicle clean unless I just went in some mud, then I want to flaunt to the soccer-mom SUVs for a little bit lol. When checking out used Jeeps before I bought a new one, I saw many...

I have Blizzak snow tires for my Honda Civic, and it was my daily driver during the winter. Put it this way, 4x4s were sliding off the road where as my honda went right ahead. The only thing that limited me was deep snow, as my Honda would bottom out. On a Jeep, they'd be darn-near unstopable.

Interesting. I kind of like the Jeep bumper, and am just looking for some bars to mount on it. I'm not looking to replace the entire bumper. So let me ask two more questions lol. 1. Would any of the steel tubular protectors make a deer bounce off at, say, 25-35 mph? 2. A friend of mine said...

Hi all, I was thinking about getting some sort of pretection for the front of my Jeep, maybe bull bars or something. My question is, is there a particular bar that would offer the most protection? I do a lot of slow to average driving on back roads with a lot of deer, so I'm hoping that this...

Heh I know, that's the problem I have with mine. Problem is, it's an automatic, so it just shifts like poop...

You'd think that Jeep would fix that... Oh well, I'm tickled to know that it's quasi-normal lol, and not just my Jeep.

Hi all, long time since I've been here! I had a post on here awhile ago discussing my woes about the pinging/rattling heard in my Jeep when the RPM dropped to about 1500, about at 45 mph, under light load. No dealership could figure it out, nor could any other mechanics. I finally got the...

Green is good!

Green is good, even in grime and grit!

RE: so our maintenance van quit on me... Can't wait to try one of those when I get the Jeep running right.

Besttop soft top installation Alright, I'll go ahead and work on burning out the gas and see what the premium octane will do. It's worth a shot I guess, for troubleshooting purposes if nothing else. deadred, I live in Shepherdstown WV. I'm actually planning on taking the jeep to THOMASSEN...

So some pinging is normal? Even if the manuel says only use 87 octane? I'm asking because I'm in the dark about car stuff. I'm considering running higher octane, but the thing is, I shouldn't have to. I've been reading that alot of Jeep owners have pinging problems, even with new vehicles...

I'm already exploring the lemon law...

....ROFL :lol: Yeah I know, it sounds fishy to me too. :cry: Sorry about the confusion about the sound description. You know, it's extremely difficult to describe a sound, especially for someone who knows very little about cars. I've never heard engine pinging, so I really can't say "it...

RE: Sloppy steering I never heard of that joejeepny. I thought 4.0 were actually happier with higher octane, atleast that's what I've read here. Jeep dealerships tell me the opposite.

Guess it did, he isn't replying...

Wow, kinda like my problem...

RE: 4.0 Throttle Body on a 2.5 myth??? Ok, more news to report. I took the Jeep to a dealership in Fairfax VA. I explained to the mechanic that the noise only occurs when the engine warms up, is in the last gear (4th), and begins to start when the engine hits 1500 RPM in 4th gear. It's the...
