All three pedals... no problem (if given proper pedal arrangement, fuck you Jeep)
Left foot braking... Odd, but I get little practice at it

Yet, hitting the clutch with my right foot feels horribly, horribly wrong. Everytime.

Yup. And hit the nail on the head - the Wrangler remains lowest-possible-tech (yet, still too many computers). 

Power windows ARE auxiliary stuff.

I don’t brake check. It is silly and can harm you and your passengers.

If there is a weight limit, it must be disclosed before purchase. If not, they have to honor it under warranty. Of course, they can choose to go to court, where they will lose.

I don’t get upset at all. There are people that pronounce it incorrectly despite owning one. These people are in the same category as Cadillac Excalade owners to me; under-educated.

Sure, talk about your “Porsh”. I won’t correct you, but I will walk away with an impression.

My Pentastar was built in Detroit, thank you very much. In fact, most of my car was made here (70%), and would be 72% if the damn transmission weren’t German. But most people can’t look past “Fiat”.

I try to shift into Reverse at 70 all the damn time. Someone laid out the shift pattern wrong.

30 years spinning wrenches. Not gonna change, certainly not if it takes months...

Im not a paramedic. A little dirty grease never hurt anyone.

Have the manufacturers of makeup and books and other things used for distraction while operating a vehicle ensured that they’ve done everything possible to make sure their products aren’t misused? Practically, there is nothing else they can do.

Sure. My state (PA) has pretty draconian rules for insurance; the provider will report you for cancelling your insurance when you get a different provider, and nothing I’ve done can eliminate the “warning” from PennDoT that states that you MUST provide proof of insurance or give up your plate for three months. ...even…

There is an effective way to prevent this, but no one (including me) wants to fully implement it - and that is to force phone manufacturers to shut down their phones (somewhere in between partially and totally) when they detect movement above a certain speed (35MPH has been mentioned in these discussions). This is an…

There are valid reason to go faster than the speed limit, there are NO valid reasons to text and drive.

Ditto this, add being punished by being hit in a “no fault” state is no fun, and isn’t recoverable.

Most Wranglers don’t go off road. Shocker.
The Base models are just as capable as the Rubicon save a few features: Tire tread, Suspension and Lockers (yes there is the sway bar, not an issue, id rather a manual one). Tires can be changed, Suspension will be changed during the lift and ARB makes MUCH better lockers…

It isn’t that bad on the pavement, especially with the upgraded suspension on the Rubicon. Death Wobble is only evident on vehicles not properly maintained, and *gasp* I can actually park this thing, and in smaller spots than a Honda Fit can fit. But that’s a compromise I’m certainly willing to make. I do not want…

Will do. Wharton State Forest on Sunday!

And people thought I was an oddball for cross-shopping a 2017 Miata and a 2017 Wrangler.

I will check it out. Thanks!

I agree with that 100%
