My Titan is leveled (not lifted) and I used adjustable Bilstein 5100s to do the job. IMO trucks look far better when leveled as opposed to when they are nose down. This is especially true when you’re on offroad tires. I don’t use mine to tow much, mostly just to haul stuff around (bikes, yard equipment, lots of wood…

I leveled my truck by actually putting heavy stuff in the bed.

Never understood the fascination with leveling kits. As soon as you haul or tow the rear is squatting and it just looks wrong.

I read this as “Man with trust fund unencumbered by financial downturn”

Seems like in 4 to 6 months from now I’ll have a good choice of discounted 2020 repo’d vehicles to choose from.

Also why TF would you drop your money into a catering business at a time when nobody is allowed to have any group events? This seems like the absolute worst time to start a catering business. 

It is logical, rational thinking like that that has no doubt lead to your excellent credit rating. But then again, the auto industry is not marketing to people like you.

It’s very simple. FCA included an option that adds several thousands to the market price. They put the word ‘Jeep’ on it.

Unemployed man in Manhattan buys a$50k Jeep pickup for his startup? That is just so goddam stupid. A $7k used Odyssey would have been an infinitely better choice for a catering company. Plus you can live in it once you can’t afford your $6k a month apartment and $500 a month parking spot.

Dude have you? Actually take a good hard look at it for more than two seconds. The seats + the appropriate mounting hardware probably has close to 100 individual pieces that likely aren’t Colorado specific.

So a lot of that pays the salaries of engineers, like that’s where most of the cost is. Imagine the scope of testing involved on just the thermal management for a truck that is being modified to run bigger tires and and is now much heavier, and is probably being built for a very specific hot environment. Have to…

Usually these contracts include spares and maintenance for X years.

Boohoo. Figure out a way to deal with it just like anyone else that’s ever worked.

I’m going out on a limb and say that this was a dumb thing to do.

It was razorbeamteam who discovered it and posted about it on Oppositelock. I asked him where it was located, and it happened to be at the junkyard that is by far the closest one to my home. I had to go see it.  This is actually how I spent the afternoon of my birthday :)

Thanks for the “slightly.”

Also, there’s a feature-length video about Project POStal in the works. We filmed the whole trip.

POStal deserves its own Pixar movie. An epic journey of a Jeep and its slightly crazy owner... It would definitely outperform Cars 2 and Cars 3.

You’d be a DAMN FOOL not to buy that Jeep back and fix it again.  And you’re not a damn fool, right?

You know a website has built a community when on a hunt through a junkyard TWO separate people ID and document the former vehicle of a site contributor.
