I also have a friend that went to Montreal but didn't have the time or money to get to Toronto. Since I met her she's become quite the hockey fan...I guess I'm a bad influence huh?
Hug your Jeeps for me today. ;o)

Never though about the mirror thing and taking the doors off, maybe I can "rig" up some mirrors if I have too. Don't know much about Canada, only been there a few times (BC). I have usually found that people are people, it is only governments that set them apart.
...at 6-7pm Pacific/9-10 pm Eastern. Hope to see you there!

Sorry that I didn't get to the chat for today. Went to eat with my parents and sent a former coworker a ecard to congratulate her on the new edition to her family, a baby boy.
See ya next chat, maybe sooner.

That was some interesting reading.
Where were you last night? We missed you in the chat. It was another good one, with quite a few people participating and the chat room working properly.

Have you hugged your Jeep today?
Later dude, Jeep on!
I would like to print this out to give to the mother in law who is a little skeptical. Father in law knew a guy in the service (in the early 50's?) in Germany who tipped over and died in one. The first thing people ask is "You got a Jeep Jeep? Don't those tip over?"
I want to tell them that there have been X new models/generations since then, with XYZ improvements.
Thanks in advance.
Also, what is the metric equivalent of 31X10.50R15? Is there a 31" tall, 15" rim tire with 8-9" tread width (instead of 10.5)? (Think of the original Jeep, or LandRover with 7.50X16.)
Thanks in advance.
Here's the link to Thelma's page anyway. I think I might have added a couple pics and a little text since you were there, if it has been longer than a couple months.

You need to find out what the invoice is on the one you are looking at..Sounds like that one might have Bodyside steps too..
They also have an 60th Anniversary Extreme Edition out. It has the Chrome bumpers and Nerf bars looks Great. This is a Dealer Installed option.

Glad everything is okay.
I didn't have doors locked cause it's just as easy to open the door by unzipping the window (i have soft uppers) and i don't want them to cut my window. I've heard other jeepers say people have done this to them.
So all in all - i'm happy they only took what they did. I left a lot more in it last night then i usually do. However, i'll never do that again - leave anything in her - well cept jumpers and extinguisher.
But good luck to all of ya. Hope your jeep's innocence lasts a lot longer then mine did!

PS - i'm a wolverine. hehe
Any how I have been contemplating the "real" jeep question and have come up with my own ideas .. nothing solid yet, I will post them in a while.
Hug your Jeeps for me today :-)

The built a new plant for the Liberty was because the Toledo Parkway plant( it built Cherokee and still makes Wrangler bodies) was one, if not the oldest assembly plant in the U.S . So building a new state of the art product needs a high tech plant.FYI- Did you also know that Wrangler bodies are still built in the old Parkway plant, painted then trucked on a semi trailer to the Stickney plant were the bodies are unloaded and built up.
Why don't you really fill us in on the process of building a Jeep (Wrangler, that is)?
Could you post some links to info on the whole process? I think we would all enjoy learning more about how our babies are built.
Tell us what happens from the day our order is accepted until our Jeep rolls off the line.
You said you used to build them, right? (When they were made in Canada)
Is there some nice long article somewhere that describes the whole process? If not, could you take the time to write up something and post it?
You da man!

I am anxiously awaiting your post announcing that you have that Jeep.
Hope it won't be more than a couple days now.

I've seen a few American-made cars here, but not very many. I guess that makes this Wrangler stick out even more. I also got some pics of a really nice Cherokee, but I haven't posted those yet.
I've got 2 more weeks here in Japan, and a little longer than that till I get to pick up my Jeep. I can't wait.
Hope everybody had a good 4th, and amid all the parades, fireworks, and beer, had a second or two to think about what it really is all about. The freedom to choose the most impractical, gas-guzzling, non-conformist, fun-to-drive vehicle ever built!

I'll talk to the dealer again today. It just might get here this weekend! Maybe today, for all I know. I already told them to take their time prepping it! I'm going to take my checklist from Twylie with me to the dealership.
I'll definitely keep you posted!
Laura
So if you do use it, let us know how it applied, and what should be added or removed.
Good luck!

Boy last nights chat was short. Hopefully we'll have a good one tonight. I'm still not sure about tomorrow night. I'll be leaving in the morning for a family reunion and I'm not sure when I'll be getting back. If I get back by 8:30 or later, I'll check in to see if anyone is still on Jeep.org.....
Saharagal,
I hope that you don't have too much longer to wait...the wait must be killing you, I know it would be me.

ottowrkr - (or anyone else) I found an ORV store that sells the computerized combustion control chips (or what ever they are called now), is there a good "brand" of these things? Then he said something about an "atomizer" that mounts under the throttle body that is suppose to increase your power, real or snake oil?
Saharagal - Glad to see your getting closer, but you know what "they" say about a watched pot (or in this case jeep).
jeepboy _ good to see your still with us.
Hug your Jeeps for me today :-)

A little hot..but thats ok with me..
Might rain tomorrow so I gotta get my top up.
Saharagal..Almost there girl..we are with ya
madman..Grat to see ya posting again..I'm sure you cant wait to get back to the USA. Keep us posted!
Keep Jeepin!

Tsjay- you want me to tell you how the jeep is built ? Man that would take some doing. .All I can tell you when we built the Jeep Wrangler from 87-92 in Brampton Canada, it was very low tech. No robots or anything like that. All welding was done with these huge welding machines run by line workers. The paint was all hand sprayed . We didn't even use clearcoat. We used to build one jeep every 2.5 minutes . If you really want to see why not write a letter to the Toledo plant with all your members of this TJ club and ask to have a plant tour. I bet they would be happy to show the people who bought there products around.
Keep posting, please!!
Laura (AKA Saharalessgal)
I have about two more years on my firebird loan. Until then (and a better job), I'll just keep going by the three or four local jeep dealers and test driving them.
Hope to see you all in the itsaJeep.org chat room.
Hug your Jeeps for me today ;-)
Start thinking about who you know.... factory workers, regional offices, Chrysler Financial
I guess great minds think alike!
By the way, the new Jeep checklist can be found on Twylie's homepage. I don't have the link here, but I know it's in previous posts.
Good luck.

Found a really nice mud puddle, about a foot and a half deep and 10 or 15 feet long, nice and slimy on the bottom. She just cruised right through it, when we got to the meadow it looked like it is a real mud hole during the winter this is going to be fun. Got pictures of that too.
TsJay - We are developing the pictures, how many are you allowed to post?
Spent the whole day "tear-assing" around the woods, I really do like this thing!
I don't know if I can stand it! I have had to leave her in an airport parking lot for a couple days since I've had her, but, other than that, I haven't been away from her.
I hope they take good care of her.

I take ZERO credit for this... Madman390 did the legwork and sent me the HTML file. I only host it, but will be glad to make any additions or changes that are needed as people actually use it.
nkelly1 - I think you're referring to a throttle body spacer. I've heard that adding one can help combustion and give you a bit more power. I have not been able to find out if this works on all Jeeps. Someone on another board mentioned that DC used a slightly higher throttle body to achieve some of this effect on '00 and '01 model Jeeps, but I have not looked into this to see if it would help '01 Jeeps. A link on an outstanding Jeep site: http://www.stu-offroad.com/airaid/air-1.htm scroll down and read what he writes on the Poweraid TBS.
Great Jeep weekend here.

Which begs the question, why are you and I here :-)?
My new neighbor, who I haven't met, looks to be one of the several college kids who rent in my neighborhood for a sememster or year. His white Wrangler of unknown vintage was towed the other day, but was back home within a few hours. Curious to learn what sidelined him. I've seen him 3 times cruising in the neighborhood, plus his girlfriend (I assume) was driving it a while ago cutting through an alley and jumping the curb. The owner was riding shotgun with a big grin on his face.
cheers!
