    Back from the test drive. Jeep is traded, loan approved. and we are the owners of an awesome 2017 5 GS. 147,000km on it and we have 4 years warranty as well. So while we are paying it off we have full warranty.

    Yep. I had one reliable jeep. 2011 JK unlimited. Well it was reliable after I replaced all the junk parts on it. Ha ha. I have a 2016 F150 FX4 all it has needed was a new base pan and transmission line from the amazing salt roads we have here in Newfoundland. The truck has 205k on the clock...

    Well after a LONG time away, we may be getting a 2017 GS model

    We sold our 2007 in 2015 and purchased a Jeep Patriot. We drove that since, and now we are looking at trading it in on 2017 5 locally with 147k on it. The jeep is constantly having issues now and it's time to move it on for something reliable again. Our last 5 served us well. We love the car...

    Do you have another "non-family" car in the driveway? Looking at getting a second car

    The total shrinkage of your manhood once you sign for a prius is totally not worth it tho. ha ha. Its just as bad as owning a minivan. If you want to portray bad ass, or whatever, get a JEEP. Now your talkin. I love my Jeep and its the most fun you can have on 4 wheels. And I still...

    Do you have another "non-family" car in the driveway? Looking at getting a second car

    Agreed, I had a 82 RX-7. It was a fun car, and I almost bought a NSX about 8 years ago. STILL, its not fully modded year one built T/A. watch faster than a redneck. Try as the Japanese cars might, they can't beat a fully built v8. The only one I saw do it was the audi wagon. I was...

    Recommendations for Replacement Brake Rotors & Pads?

    I would go napa ultra premium for both pads and rotors. I use these on everything I own. I am disappointed that I have to move from them on my Jeep as I am installing a teraflex front and rear big brake kit as I tow my camper with it and want the extra force the big brakes give me.

    Well, HID replacement and upgrade is done....FINALLY!

    They are instant on. It takes maybe 1-2 secs to get to correct color, but they are bright as soon as you flick the switch.

    Drove the cx-3. We are buying one

    I think its pretty similar to the 3's interior space. All I know, I was having a blast driving it. That being said, my daily driver is a Jeep wrangler unlimited with 33" tires and 2" of lift. Power in that is non existant. But damn, is it fun! I went in the 5 so I could compare the...

    Chasing the clunk

    They are near factory spec which is valved for a factory ride, not the weight of the car. I have them and they work great. I have about 20k on them now and they are great.

    Enkei rims EKM3 on white Mazda 5 (photos)

    exactly. If your not driving hard 100 percent of the time, look elsewhere compared to the pilots. they wear quickly. Every set I have owned were not a long lasting tire.
