Well today I traded in my 06 Cobalt SS/SC in Arrival Blue for a 2008 Jeep Wrangler JK 2 Door with Freedom Hardtop, its the 6 Speed 2 Door model in Stone White.

This has been a great community and I plan on sticking around and adding insight. It was just time for me to move on because I am moving for work and I will not have relatives in the area to rely on for rides in the snow. I will miss the Cobalt and all the power but I plan on modding my new Jeep.

Like the interior, Congrats!

 

Thanks I was really impressed with it as well, its minimalistic but that is what makes the Jeep iconic.

nice man, i always loved those new wranglers, esp. with the 6 speed. Have fun with it.

 

what ever makes it easier on you man congrats

 

i like the "oh **** handle" on the dash

 

Congrats man....My sis just got one last week..

 

Yeah that handle probably comes in handy for the lady, when were going offroad ha ha.

Thanks.

 

Not to threadjack..I got rid of my Yellow Sport today too..I traded it in for a mint 2004 mustang gt. It costs me like 25 less a month which is good.


NICE JEEP!!!

 

Have fun trying to trail ride with a stick

Depending on what you plan on doing with your jeep, you need to change those stock p00 goodyears.

If you live in a sandy trail area, get rain tires...and thank you for not getting a 4 door one.

 

You sound like you have experience, what is a good tire that you would recommend? Yeah those four doors still look like a aftermarket stretch job to me, just really wierd. I actually live in the Mountains, not much sand around. Yeah I went on some gravel trail type places down the mountain today I can see what you mean hard to start on a non level surface without heel toeing the brake and gas.

 

Well, if you climb at all, you will learn a good habit of keeping your momentum up.

Just go to tire rack, and PAY attention to what a tire is advertised for.

And take note on what trails you ride down, and what is there. Lots of vertical lines=rain tires.

Gravel tires will be crappy on road...just don't drive a Jeep on road aggressively at all...or you will **** yourself

 

jason...loved your car. GL with the jeep!

 

Thanks Mike.

Sweet Mustangs are very nice, depending on what mods it already has I am sure you got a sweet deal.

 

It's bone stock. 21k on it for 13,000. Its super clean and I love it so far. I just want Cold air, exhaust, and gears and ill be set.

 

well, if you have any issues, i am a chrysler dodge jeep tech.

those things arnt bad, too bad they have minivan engines, though.

if you have any questions, let me know.

 

Yeah its the Caravan engine I know. It gets a bad rap for that, heck there is plenty of room in that engine bay though, I was definitely surprised on that.

 

Yeah the I-6 4.0>almost anything dodge makes now.

Had a nice low compression ratio too...and I have seen some boosted ones...run mid to low 12s.
