2000 Jeep Wrangler TJ Rock Crawler. Better than Rubicon. Over $30k of parts alone put into this Jeep.
Okay, it's hard to describe all that's been put into this Jeep. There's easily over $30k worth of extras that have been added along the way. It's BUILT to be incredibly solid on 35" tires so that it's extremely capable yet isn't going to be breaking things left and right. This Jeep has done the Rubicon, Fordyce Creek, Most all the tough trails in Moab, Rimrock, Tillamook State Forest (brown's camp) including Crushers. I bought the Jeep with 50k miles on it and it in 2007 and it's got just a bit over 100k miles on it now. Obviously extreme Jeeps used to be one of my biggest hobbies. However, I'm at a point where I only use it a couple times a year. I'm at a stage in my life where I'm ready to move on from my extreme wheeling addiction.
My Jeep has been pretty amazing for me. I've done a lot to clean up any issues from the previous owner and build it up even better. There are a couple little things that I haven't dealt with yet: There is a leak between the transmission and the Atlas 2 transfer case. it drips on the garage floor and before I go on a wheeling adventure I have to top off the fluid. The seal isn't that much but I haven't had the motivation to drop the transfer case to swap in a new seal. The KC lights aren't working right now. It's a fuse, relay or loose connection. Again, not a big deal. The windshield is cracked. It's a jeep, and those flat windshields are magnets for rock chips and cracks. The Jeep has always passed emissions with flying colors once I figured out an issue that ultimately led me to replace the ECU. There are some dings and even a couple small dents from wheeling the jeep. I can tell you exactly what happened in each case. Cosmetically, the Jeep still is pretty amazing and despite some minor trail scars, it's a full on head turner and gets compliments left and right. This jeep is built to tackle almost any trail that you have the skill and balls to do. There's little that I haven't been able to concur and it's built to excessive convenience and capability. I've driven it the 1,000 miles to Moab with my son watching videos the whole way and then wheeled it on all the amazing trails down there with the A/C keeping us cool. I recently did a custom "snow camo" vinyl to it. Basically, I just bought a roll of black and a roll of white vinyl and cut out pieces and applied it. I have gotten tons of compliments on it. But if it's not your thing, it's vinyl and would come right off.

Jeep rear-mounted fuel tank controversy
Jeep Renegade to show off new Mopar gear in Detroit
Sun, Jan 11 2015Jeep's adorable new Renegade is arriving in the US market soon (we're looking forward to driving it in a couple weeks), and to highlight that fact, the American off-road brand is trotting out a pair of Mopar-modified compact CUVs for the 2015 North American International Auto Show. Rather simply, Jeep has modified one Renegade to show off its prowess in the city, and another that plays up the crossover's off-road abilities. Despite their different purposes, both vehicles show off Mopar's parts catalog and Jeep's Authentic Accessories lineup for the new baby Jeep. The Urban Renegade borrows uses a Renegade Limited with Anvil paint as its base and draws from the Accessories catalog, adding a number of Omaha orange accents and satin black wheels. Mopar donated a bike-hauling trailer hitch to the rear of the Renegade, while its cabin features Katzkin leather-lined seats. Once again, Omaha orange accents brighten up the Limited's cabin. As for the off-road model, Mopar got a bit more involved, starting with the Renegade Trailhawk and adding satin black wheels with Colorado red trim and X-shaped graphics, borrowed from military jerry cans, to the Commando Green exterior. A number of prototype and one-off body mods were fitted to the Trailhawk, including a concept skid plate, rock rails and a new rear valence. Inside, Katzkin leather was applied to the Renegade's seats while the Omaha orange accents from the Urban Renegade have been replaced with Commando Green bits and bobs in the off-road model. Look for more on these new Renegade twins come Monday, when we hit the floor of the 2015 Detroit Auto Show. Until then, check out the official press release from Mopar.

FCA recalls over 200k Jeep Cherokees for windshield wiper static
Tue, Sep 1 2015Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is issuing a recall for over 200,000 versions of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee due to a problem with static buildup disabling the windshield wipers. FCA has identified 158,671 units in the United States. Another 18,366 vehicles are estimated to be affected in Canada, a further 3,582 in Mexico, and 26,049 outside of North America. The problem, according to the first statement below, results from static building up if the wipers are operated in dry conditions. The static could mess with the wipers' control module, rendering them disabled. To fix the problem, dealers will be instructed to install a ground strap to the module. In parallel, FCA is also offering incentives to the owners of certain trucks that were subject to recall but for which remedies were not immediately available. To encourage those owners to bring their older vehicles in for the required service, the automaker will disperse $100 prepaid cards for use at their discretion. The program is offered to owners of certain model year Jeep Grand Cherokee, Jeep Liberty, Chrysler Aspen, and Dodge Durango sport-utility vehicles, as well as certain Dodge Dakota and Ram trucks. Owners of the affected Grand Cherokees will have the option instead to take a $1,000 consideration toward the purchase of a new vehicle or for parts and service. The offers are only being extended under certain specific criteria, though. So if you think that could be you, you'll want to read through the conditions in the second announcement below. STATEMENT: CONTROL MODULE August 31, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - FCA US LLC is recalling an estimated 158,671 SUVs in the U.S. to help protect their control modules from static buildup that may potentially disable the vehicles' windshield wipers. An investigation by FCA US discovered static buildup may occur if the vehicles' windshield wipers are activated during dry conditions. Significant static buildup may affect a control module that powers the wipers. The Company is unaware of any related injuries or accidents. Affected are model-year 2014 Jeep Cherokee SUVs. An estimated 18,366 vehicles will be recalled in Canada, as will an estimated 3,582 in Mexico and 26,049 outside the NAFTA region. Dealers will install a ground strap to the control module to eliminate the potential for static buildup. Customers will be advised when they may schedule service, which will be performed at no cost.
