DSL in my Rubi
Does anyone use their laptop in their Jeeps? I was going to try and use
my laptop with my GPS, but if my Rubi's own computer ties in and finds this NG, then discovers that it's not a Real Jeep...well, I'm concerned about future performance and general attitude. Is there such a thing as Jeep depression? -- __________________________________________________ _________ tw 03 TJ Rubicon - Rubicon Express 4.5" 01 XJ Sport There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness." -- Dave Barry Pronunciation: 'jEp Function: noun Date: 1940 Etymology: from g. p.

I'll be able to show you some pictures and info hopefully sometime this summer. Of course, the YJ is not regarded to be a real Jeep by many here either, but I keep finding parts in it that has the AMC logo on them. Who says you can't be knee-deep in mud and online at the same time? ;-) -Kris http://eternalbank.com/jeeps.htm |

Re: DSL in my Rubi
Hi Joe,
Many sacrifices, like weight has a lot to do with it, weighting less than half a TJ. Shocks and springs that will absorb the torque and weight and start it up hill without bouncing. I do drive a couple of Thunderbirds if I want a cushy ride to go to Vegas or a Bronco tow vehicle with.
