The rubbing issues cause people to add wheel spacers, which who knows where they got them from.

I’d like to follow manufacturer specs when it comes to the only part of my vehicle that actually touches the road/ground.

Yep. Chinese sourced spacers from ebay to run tires that are too wide for the wheels on a $50k Jeep. Makes perfect sense.

I waved at someone in an awesome Sarge Green Gladiator with a bunch of toys on it this morning. The bastard didn’t acknowledge me.

I told wifey about it when I got home that some people are dicks sometimes.

I was driving my Corolla.

Michelle misses my Jeep more than I do

Yea, chicks really love them.

For some reason, my Michele is way more on the CT2 than the JL. She didn't like the top off much because of messing up hair , so it made the thing somewhat of a waste. So that worked out...

A CRV could have handled that no problem.

I was always impressed with how the JT handled weight in the bed.

This was riding on the bump stops and the KM2s were bulging out. I wouldn’t drive this very far, but it was only around the corner so

Should be enough to do the walkway project at the new place if we ever close.

1. 8 speed transmission is amaze compared to 5 speed but it needs a sport mode aside from the manual as that thing has you in the highest gear possible as soon as possible.
2. My wife really liked the size, which I think we all do. Big enough for utility, narrow/short enough to avoid the CDL.
3. 2.Bro is decent enough on power but is still soul crushing item of corporate boredom. Jeep is a bro vehicle, I reiterate my stance that it needs a bro engine. You've got this Mojito Green Rubicon 35 inch tire thing.........that is powered by a 2.0 turbo four or the Pentagram? The only other option being $80K 392 Unobtanium? Lame.
4. Hawaii is truly built for the Jeep because anything over 60 gets you pulled over. Thus no opportunity to test the wind noise/porta-potty roof /inherent brick wall dynamics.
5. Did not even think about looking at my phone as the wandering steering would create a head on collision in short order.
6. Wife liked it quite a bit but she had issues with paying $40K and receiving a porta-potty roof. I told her those were "freedom panels" and that did not alter her valuation. I therefore assume similar issues with paying $60K and receiving a porta-potty roof.

What say you on maintenance intervals? Our last free oil change from is coming up and I think I'll take over everything from that point on, I still enjoy maintaining my own vehicles for peace of mind and

I was looking at this: https://www.mopar.com/jeep/en-us/my-veh ... edule.html

It seems like other than oil changes, it recommends axle fluid change, air filter, etc. I see no mention of auto trans fluid change, brake fluid change, rear diff, etc.

Anyone have any info/resources on what to do and when? I imagine we will keep this car for 7-10+ years, so it would be nice to keep it fresh.

On a high stress turbro motor with a timing chain, I'd go with a 5k OCI. 30k front/rear diff drain and fills. T-case drain and fill @ 50k, trans drain and fill at 75k. But that's just me. Cheap insurance.

Air filter/cabin filter annually or as-needed. Pull and inspect every other oil change. Also, if possible, lube the driveshaft U-joints every oil change.
