    WK2 Reliability

    My 2013 WK2 V8 Trailhawk has just under 80k miles and it has been great. I had the water pump replaced under warranty at about 55K miles, and I just now need to do brakes for the first time.

    New Jeep Pick Up to be unveiled...The Gladiator

    I considered waiting for a Jeep Rubicon pickup. My main concerns were price and payload, so I looked around a little and found a new Ram Tradesman Power Wagon. Sticker on the Ram Tradesman Power Wagon was $51k, so I got it for about $45k out the door. It still doesn't have the best payload...

    Power Wagon common problems? Best years?

    The payload rating for the Power Wagon is lower than a standard Ram 2500 because of the off road suspension. If you are using a lite truck camper, you may be fine. I've seen Power Wagons with the FWC Hawk and I'm a fan, but anything heavier may be an issue. I do not own a Power Wagon, but I...

    2004 CTD FWC Hawk

    I was looking for an inexpensive way to add a winch to my 2004 Ram 2500 and ended up buying one of these: http://fabfours.com/product/winch-mount/# I just have a 12k Badlands winch in it for now. It bolts up to the factory tow hook location. It took less than an hour to install and most of...

    Grand Cherokee Trailhawk - anyone have one?

    When I replaced the tires on mine, I went with Duratracs in the same size as the originals. The wheel wells are really not very big on my 2013 GCTH. I know the head lights and grill have changed on the newer models, but I'm not sure about the wheel wells.

    Best place for the brake controller in a 2017 Grand Cherokee Trail Hawk?

    Same. It is mounted above my right knee.

    1961 4WD Suburban

    I bought my 1961 for less than $2k, but then put a LOT more into it. If it's runs and drives, I'd say it's worth it...

    Gorgeous Boat Inspired Teardrop Kit

    Interesting. My boss built a boat from that company. It was very good quality, but it took him almost 2 years to build it. This looks much more simple, but I imagine it still takes a while to build...

    WK2?

    I have a 2013 Grand Cherokee as my daily driver. Compared to where I took my old Rubicon, I haven't done anything I would consider off-roading with the Grand. It handles dirt track well and is more comfortable than my old Rubicon. One of the reasons I bought the Grand is I plan to buy a...

    TJs with 35s???

    I don't have this anymore, but I still have a few photos: Zero lift with Metalcloak Overline fenders: Here it is dirty: I did eventually put a 2" OME heavy lift on it, but I don't see any pictures from after the lift.

    Jeep Grand Cherokee vs Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk

    I have a 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk and I couldn't be happier with it. I have 43k miles on mine and I've had no issues. Jeep made the Grand Cherokee Trailhawk for one year, but it was before the diesel was available. You can get just about everything from the Trailhawk package on a...

    2014 JK with Ursa Minor top and lotsa extras

    The price would be awesome if it was a Rubicon. Still not bad for all the extras it has.

    Nice clean Carryall pre-build in WA

    Very nice. I went a slightly different path with mine, but I like it.
