Having had my Chrysler NSG370 rebuilt twice in a year and now it’s worse than ever, I can commiserate. Hope Mustang owners get some meaningful compensation after the lawyers have eaten their share.

Every time I talk about driving a naked Jeep someone gets confused...

If this goes horribly wrong you didn’t hear it from me, but I’ve heard of, and seen, jacks be used to remove stubborn doors. Put a 2x4 between the jack and the bottom of the door to spread out the load, and raise it verrrrrrrry slowly.

I drive pretty much all summer with the top and doors off, so watertight isn’t a concern, but you’re right to be worried about it. I’ve heard that complaint before.

Doesn’t make me want a flatfender any less, though, that’s for sure.

You rang?

“My generation of Jeep was the last true Jeep” is a decades-old lament that continues to be as untrue now as it was when the YJ came out and CJ fans uttered it.

Provisionally. There are definitely some flags.

This actually seems like it might be a great use case for self-driving technology. Let the computer handle the steering for any complex turns, with a driver present to take over if something completely unexpected happens.

old school station wagons should have wood-panel siding

I sure can’t find anything in the rules to indicate the EV parts are excluded, but that seems like such an egregious violation of the spirit of the EV initiative that I hope it’s an oversight.

Thank you for violating the letter of Bill Watterson’s copyright and cheapening the spirit of his marvelous comic strip. Such a proud moment to be a Jalop.

Yeah, this pisses me off (pun not intended but I guess I’ll embrace it).

Certified pre-owned.

Just let me paint my plate numbers on my Jeep and I’d be happy.

There was an informative (likely flawed, but still interesting) study conducted last year(?) by giving people a personal driver for a period of time; sure enough, they used their cars much more. Pretty sure it was posted here.

Closest I’ve ever come to something like that was putting a few hundred pounds of mulch (in bags) into and on top of the trunk in my del Sol. Amazing how much trunk capacity that thing had. I miss it dearly.

Nice. Since I don’t often drive automatics, the drive/reverse layout made perfect sense to me: drive is forward, reverse is back.

I used them, and I know some Tesla owners were thrilled to use the charging stations. 

I’m a sad, mostly previously happy but infrequent user of their service. My Jeep is almost always in the shop, or so it feels, and back before the sky fell in I commuted to an office with one of their locations right outside.
