I didn't see anything my '57 T-Bird couldn't easily drive. Look around Jennifer's page for what a Jeep's made for:
V-6 in '08 Wrangler???
Jeep Stuff:
I agree. I own 3 TJs and a 08 JK. I really enjoy the JK, on and off road, better than the others. It's my plan is to make this the last Jeep I own, so I dig the Lifetime warranty. I believe we'll see more folks who
*actually own* or have owned legacy Jeeps and a JK report in the same consensus.Other Stuff:
I've been away from this group for a while, but it seems that there are a few crusty individuals that seem to say "if I'm not doing it, it ain't right." Pink Freud *seems* to be a crazy dude, but I'm starting to think he may have some valid points buried in his posts. And is there anyone else here that finds it interesting (and maybe as equally neurotic) that Bill feels a need to constantly respond to him?!?

Right on !!! Maybe sometime in the next millenium some of the diehards on this board will come to their senses and realize that the World doesn't stand still. Progress has been made. Don't condemn it without trying it !!
I believe you. ;) '57 Tbird, 6" lift, 33s. LOL!
I don't want to waist too much time on this, but I want to further comment.
Because of Bill's need to constantly respond to Pink Freud, BILL is spamming this newsgroup. How many messages has he posted that say something "This from the biggest spammer of them all!"??? Anybody see the irony? How many off topic messages have BILL posted and PERPETUATED? I'm thinking that everyone who's been monitoring this newsgroup for a while has gotten used to this craziness, but as someone that recently returned, I find it ridicules. Anybody else tired of sorting through the mess laid out by these two to get to real Jeep topics?
This WILL be the last spam message I post about this. I'll just simply refuse to play.
Have a nice day.

No, not since I set up my scorefile to kill any posts and replies from the groups main troll.
Windows Mail does have a kill feature, or better yet, you might consider a newsreader that enables scoring, that's what works for me.
So...
Bring on the mini van engines! I do have the sand pit in mind within an hour of Toronto Canada for the shootout and don't mind sitting up top of the pit rim taking photos of the attempts to follow me up there.
On the last shootout, we figured a TJ with 12.5's locked both front and rear 'can' follow my open diff'ed 'pizza cutter' 9.5's up the pit walls. Others, well.... got lots and lots of photos of the attempts....
I also have photos of a TJ 4.0 being 'walked' up the sand pit wall. The 'driver' from this newsgroup is literally outside walking.

My wife and I both have driven the new Jeep and find it to be a good overall vehicle both on road and off road. Although we didn't do any real hard core off road s*it kicking, we did cover some pretty crazy stuff on the logging roads in behind Pemberton, the Stein divide, Litton. Plenty of power. As far as a Mitsubishi engine is concerned, I have 2 Dodge Colts AKA Mitsubishi Colts which are still going strong and one has over
250,000.00 miles and the other with 300,000.00 miles. So engine reliability isn't an issue as far as I am concerned. Mitsubishis vehicles all so do well off road in World Rallye Championship and Dakar Rally. Strange, I don't see Jeeps in the winners circle! And that is one hard core off road event. Oh and IFS too boot! Imagine that.Cheers
Before Corvettes became a classic and smog laws tightened there were literally thousands in my local deserts:

I like it. Actually I have often though about putting a car body on a
4x4 jeep chassis because it would be good to have a trunk, it's actually much more practical.THANX for the reply and the link to the allpar site.
Bill is simply unable to control himself. Just killfile him and your inbox will be clean. Thank God I did so, so I won't have to see his pathetic "if I don't respond to every troll, the terrorists win, and anyone who disagrees with me is a bleeding heart liberal wacko limp" (sic) response.
You're the typical bleeding heart liberal wacko limp, coward. You may thank me later for saving this group. God Bless America, Bill O|||||||O mailto: snipped-for-privacy@aol.com
Oh and thanks for being stupid and being you were writing Fred Garvin, showing the groups weakness, and cost me another hundred rebuttals!!!!!!!!!! You'll probably vote for Clinton, too believing she'll bring the troops home. She's a socialist, but she's not stupid, just a liar. God Bless America, Bill O|||||||O mailto: snipped-for-privacy@aol.com
And another 100 rebuttals will cost you your teranews account, s*it-for-brains.
Your the destroyer of groups, and certainly no savior. But you are the typical bleeding heart liberal wacko limp, coward, by definition.
Bill:
For the record, I have not visited this group in a couple of years (until recently).
The fact that you keep responding to Pink Freud is bizarre. Pink Freud is a nut case, but your behavior is no better. Take a look around, you're not saving this group, you're spamming the hell out of it. It's craziness - both of you. I really thought you were the saner of the two, but now I'm not so sure.
Also, it's funny - I have no association with the other crazy dude, but because I make a point you don't like, you assume I'm part of his attack?!? Nutty.
-Fred
Yeah. Yeah. Hillary's negative ratings big and for good reason, but where's the Jeep?!?
Spam?!?
This is just plain nuttiness.
Good luck with that.
Everyone who really cares about the group has gotten tired of it. This includes me. But rather than killfile him, I'd rather keep turning over the rocks he hides under and expose him to sunlight. Eventually, he will run out of places to hide and that'll be the end of him.
God bless you!
Ditto.
Fred, you're wasting your time, trying to be reasonable with Bill. He's gone off the deep end over the last few months. He got into a flame war in another group and it followed him here. Not to say his nemeses aren't responsible for crapping on the group as well, but he can't let it go. Really, he thinks if he doesn't respond to EVERY troll post, the terrorists will win! And they know he will respond, because they are playing him like a violin. Many regulars have begged him to continue his efforts in reporting these folks to their ISP's, but to cease posting every reply, and he has ignored us. He things he has to destroy the group to save it. If he just stops, the trolls will stop.
