Its' not because you read stuff on the net that you suddenly turn into a Jeep pro.


Dom, just so you know, Jack and I are deeply offended by your comment.  :cry: :cry:

The topic of Jack's thread:
Advice needed.

Jack, maybe you need to change that title?
More like: Jack's getting a Rubicon 4 door as a daily driver for his wife because JKforum said it is the bomb, what do you guys think BUT only if you agree with everything i have read?

Keep it light Jack. This site rarely if ever sees anyone calling eachother names. A good bunch of folks that love jeeps. Personally i think the 4 door JK is an aborted H3. i like the H3 not the aborted Jeep. Thats me. Even on 37's i still don't like the look. Oh well, my bro in law owns one and i even wheeled with one from this club.
Remember Jack, its just opinions.

P.S. i thought i gave you a pretty good welcome to Calgary off Jeepkings???

Dom is one of the crazy station wagoners.

Im sure he was referring to you not owning one of the jeeps regarded in the discussion.

His invite is sincere and not a call out. Dom's a teddy bear and one of our friendliest members. He is also french, so his written word sometimes gets mis understood.

You are more then welcome to come talk jeep at a meeting or an open club run anytime.  :D




I was not "calling you out" ....  like you say.  I just don't like people being a-h on the site. That's why I wrote that post originally.

I deleted my post because I thought it sounded a little angry (after i read it for the first time) and it was pointless to argue on the web. I guess you read it before I deleted it.

I will still be at next meeting if you want to chat (i'm not calling you out). I'm the guy sitting in the front with the funny accent.

Please don't take this the wrong way... Arguments are good. Calling people name is for 4wheeler.ca.

PS: Tom is right :roll:

soooo... are you guys still poking fun at the new JK's? cause i saw a harsh comment directed at square headlight jeeps and i just can't take it anymore!!!
you all know YJ's have been and always will be "the true Jeep."
i guess yer just jealous of my amazing YJ.
hahahhahaaaaa... my kidneys hurt:( as usual, im just kidding around.
i hope everyone else is kidding around too;)

ill throw my opinion out there. it was time for a new "Jeep." they need new customers bad. its only obvious they will make the new jeep more reasonable for new buyers. hence the highway engine, cushy suspension, and all the "skookem bells"(bill, ill ask you what a skookem bell is another time). overall, it rides and handles better then the TJ. will a stock TJ out perform a stock JK... sure the magazines say so... but ive learned early on that you can't trust 100% what you read on the net or in a mag.
so... if you want a comfy jeep that one day you can modify to kingdom come, then go with a JK. if you want to build and modify right now... then go YJ!!!!! hahahahaha, suckersss!

We picked up our new "stock Rubi"!  (HAHA)

It is a little underpowered, but compared to my CJ, it's a Ferrari!

Bottom line for us:  It is totally a yuppie or soccer mom vehicle, but for us, it's a great, fun and safe vehicle for a kid.  I will be dead cold before I will ever see us behind the wheel of a mini-van!  The kid can be entertained by looking at the sky, not an integrated DVD player!

Bottom line for all:  Whether square or round, stock or modded, two door or four door (or no doors), pavement princess or offroader, Jeeps kick arse!  There is nothing better!

Thanks for everyone's help!   :D
