You are a legend in your own mind and offer dangerous advise on some matters. I few years ago I whatch a few of your "clones" (those who kinda think like you) wreck two Wranglers about 1 minute apart on a icy highway. They like you thought they were invincible and ego driven traveling in 4wd at speed on a slick road and first one spun out and went in the ditch and the second one spun out about same place and hit first one in the ditch and kinda drove over it because it hit with such force. Both were pretty new and totaled and one driver was seriously hurt too. Many car before and after this that were not Wranglers and were not 4wd passed this place with no problems. If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck it is a duck and same applies to you as you are a accident waiting to happen and do not need others to take your misguided advise on matters of safety. If you want me to leave you be, stop posting ego driven BS advise as your comments are ripe for picking. |

dont really care about % at all... dont care about how much gas I
use..... dont care about how much it costs to replace the tires, dont care what 6 qts of synthetic 10/30 oil costs along with filter every 3k..currently at 131K... dont care that I use high test gas, the gas tank is 22 gallons, that 351 is a hungry engine, dont care about what it cost when i say fill up, dont care what it costs to change all the fluids regularly. I dont care because its fun to drive..... just fun.... The thing that I do care and know, it is one of the widest, and some what heaviest 4x4 out there in its class...95 vintage well kept, washed, polished, detailed, derusted, and painted again (white), now with new chrome bumpers (oe) type... and if by chance a little toyota, honda, or one of those little cars etc hits me in the rear, the towing hitch will probably destroy that little car, or if by chance somebody hits me in the front, all i can say is good luck pal, all my passengers will be safe. I laugh when the little fwd vehicles get stuck in the snow, or unable to move because snow is packed rite into the bumper, one inch ground clearance indeed, hummmmm. I enjoy the legroom, where my knees aren't touching the steering wheel.. It's a 2 door, 5 passenger type, with full leather interior, the smell of leather in morning... and a cup of coffee... so if u see a white suv, black trim, bumper hitch, chrome bumpers, and it looks like the oj is passing u.... u just better move over to the far rite lane,,, will be doing 80 mph, with plenty hp left... while your little 1.8 4cyl is working hard just to go 60.. |

I've never seen any 1.8 liter equipped US destination vehicle have to "work" as hard to go 60 as your vehicle's engine does. Work = horsepower, conveniently enough. Toyota MDT in MO |

micrometer???? i bet u drive one of those smart cars... 2 seater and u
also believe that democrats are for the workers too??? smart cars, democrats, global warming, taxes, user taxes, less unions and more illegals working for the democrats, and to think I drive oh nooooo... one of those dreaded big, 4x4 suvs.... simply unbelievable.... but i have been thinking of down grading my ride to a 94 transam.. 350, 6 speed.... (do u know what a manual transmission is, i bet u never heard of a clutch or a clutch pedal)... i think i will keep them both... summer car, and a winter car.... both belching gas guzzlers... love it..... the smell of rubber on the road..nothing like it... and speaking of carbon footprints,,, how about a twin motor, military jet holds 12 passengers.. (the ultimate suv). do u know that the speaker of the house has this military jet plane for her own use. She uses it to fly back and forth from ca to washington,and other places. She doesnt worry about her carbon footprint, and the suvs that demoract politicians drive, ohhhh the carbon foortprints...... the earth is doomed... i am not responsible for u not having any fun whle u are driving your two seater smart car, while politicians are driving and flying suvs. just kidding.... |
