I like the idea, but we installed the Softopper for hard top Jeeps, so no-go on the Freedom panel setup. Would like this option for the rear of the hard top in our JLU.

Our boy, Rags, supervising the install of Armorlite wheel well covers in his jeep (license plate even has his name on it) this week.

We got the Mopar stuff for front and 2nd row when we got our Jeep. Been pretty happy with them so far, but I've seen the Armorlite flooring in some builds, and I gotta say it look pretty good. I don't care for their cargo area setup, as it has no provision for the backs of the 2nd row seating...

This past Monday morning, after the weekend front hit and knocked the temps into single digits for the first time this winter. This is on the lower Tennessee River, a couple miles below Kentucky Dam, at my plant's river dock. The guys were short-handed, so I bundled up and got on the barge to...

Really nice find! Just one quick trip through that area and in and out of Great Basin and I love that area. Congratulations!!

Nice! 4 years ago, we spent a week or so around Tahoe, and came back home with HWY 50, because I wanted to stop at Great Basin National Park to see the Bristlecone Pines. Very different drive than our trip out, mostly in I80, and I loved it. Really want to hit Great Basin again some day. We only...

Nice! I'm not far from you.

Not the same vehicle, but check out the last few issues of Mopar Action for swap info. The tech editor and a friend are doing a 5.7 and 6.4 swap into a couple of classic Mopars and have some good info on what they are doing/using to accomplish it successfully.

I bought one several years ago, and keep it loaded with both .45 and 410 home defense loads. It's fun to shoot.

My condolences to you.

Thank you!

Might have missed it, but looks like you upgraded your tail lights from stock. Are those Oracles? How do you like them? I've heard a lot of good things about them, and some not so good. I think the main misgivings on them are for those with the safety group, and how the blind-spot monitoring...

So far, we like the 3.6, but this is our first 3.6 AND our first Jeep. Towed our 21' runabout this week for the first time with it. It handled it just fine for a short run, but it does not pull it like the wife's 5.7 Hemi in her Durango R/T. I didn't want the 392 option for this Jeep, but would...

Another line I found through my local shop is Chinnock. More pricey, but really nice. Both the Cremoir and Terroir blends are pretty nice. Not easy to find in the big on-line shops.

Big fan of the Tatuaje brand, and have a few of the "Monster" line in the coolerdor right now. The Cabaiguan Guapos is my big fave from this brand. Although it's been a few years, I've been a real fan of the Illusione brand, but paused them for a while. The flavor is fantastic, but quality of...
