Fat there isint much rocky stuff here. actually i dont think we have any rocky mountains. I dont know where the 4x4 clubs go around here besides the Jeep Jamboree trail, which i dont believe has anything rocky either.

My 2001 one had the "california beach" package on it. Everytime u start the car the sunroof would open on its own. no one could ever fix that, untill one of the mechanics made a joke about it and called it the RARE california option. u start the car and sunroof opens so u can get the nice, warm cali sun shining into your ride while u ride along the beach. The cali package was also supplied with heating that NEVER worked.....simply in cali there is no point for the heat.

Yikes! Ya well I knew what I was getting into when I bought this car - I too, had ready all of the consumer reports/etc and read all that negative stuff. Check this out my 2000 Jeep has 150K but the previous owner (which I know personally) did all preventative maintainence on it - new rotors, spark plugs, transmission and 4x4 service (all fluids/flushes), tires, spark plugs, rust proof every year, synthetic oil changes every 5000K all that kinda stuff, and the Jeep looks clean inside/out. Its a big V8 hog too, but those engines will go 500K if you look after them properly. Oh ya and of course I did a CARFAX before I got it too and no accidents either. I have all the records. So far the only thing that has gone wrong was a faulty rear wiper motor, but I was able to get the dealership to fix it without having to replace it- at the same time I spent the extra $$$ and had the dealership do a full electrical systems check and everything came back fine. Mind you I know that anything could happen, so last week I went out and bought my CAA PLUS membership, just in case! I love my Jeep!

Sound like fun - I can't wait! Thanks Mr. Yuli!
BTW, I getting a CompuSTAR alarm (newest 2-way model w/ remote starter) installed today. A neighbour with a 2001 WJ sent me over to a local shop here in Scarborough (he had his alarm done there too and so far so good). I'm getting it done as I type this...$650.00 installed taxes in. A little more $$$ than I wanted to spend but it will give me peace.
