BloodRed

I joined MOJO this weekend in hopes he can hit up the scene with some locals.

 

I've been a member of MOJO for a few years now. Great group of people. Fun events and monthly rides are a blast.

I haven't heard anything more than what plagues the HEMI in any of the others. Cam seems to pretty common to go bad. Had mine replaced under warranty on my Charger

Now I dont know this shop to really say, but as an assumption, most of these offroad shops typically only like to install brand new fancy shocks, roof-top tents, lighting ect. They typically dont mess with common-folk parts replacements, especially with customer provided parts (cuts their profits out).

 

While I have had very little experience with them, from the work they have done for members of the local Jeep group I am part of, they seem to be willing to take on any project. They are not another 4 Wheel Parts.

All-Terrain Outfitters. While they mainly work on Jeeps, they will tackle just about any job. They just opened up a location in Columbus a few months ago.

My wife drives a 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk. It has been completely issue free in the 26k miles we have put on it. Trailhawk has the same air ride system on the Summit. That is the only thing I wasn't super happy about when she picked that model, but it is hers. Ours only has the v6 but with the 8 speed transmission it is pretty nice. We use it to tow our 4000lb camper no problem. We have talked about once the Gladiator comes out we might trade it in for one.

Lift it and wheel the shit out of that thing LOL

If he isn't bringing the "Funky Bunch" I'm not buying from there.

For a 2 door, find a OEM style or Bestop top. I am not a fan of the "fast back" style tops on a 2 door. It really cuts into the limited storage space behind the back seats.

 

Right now is the worst time of the year to look for a used one, but keep an eye out on Craigslist or any of the many Jeep FB group pages. I got mine with all the hardware, used for $300 off a Jeep FB group page. Kid ran it 1 year and liked the hard top for some reason. Fall and early winter is the best time to find a used soft top as people put the hard tops back on for the winter.

 

If you want to go new, best site is Quadratec. They have a great soft top finder tool that will help you find what you want. Definitely recommend going with the "premium" fabric as it is thicker and less likely to fade.

Wife drives a '17 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk that has been a great vehicle for the time we have it. It is the V6 model, but still does pretty good with the 8 speed transmission. Got 24 mpg on a trip down to FL loaded with 4 adults and luggage.

 

Real question is really what do you want out of the SUV? Size, status, towing, 4wd, 3rd row, etc?

 

We mainly went with the JGC because of the towing capacity as we are going to be purchasing a camper soon. 6,200 lbs with the V6 and 7,200 lbs with a V8 is the highest in it's class.

I miss my 2014 Charger RT. It was definitely a fun ride and was comfortable. I had mine for just under 3 years and the only service it ended up having was the cam went out a few months before it was totaled. Watch for a random miss fire as the tell tale sign. CEL will come on, but goes off in a few days.

 

Since it is gray, like mine was, be ready for a lot of people to get the hell out of your way when you come up behind them on the highway. No body will pass you either because they think you are a cop. Mine had a sunroof too and if that was up they thought I had a low profile light bar.

I may have missed this elsewhere in the thread...but what time on Monday?

 

From what I read, in Central Ohio it will start around 1:30 with the peak around 2:35.

I think I will be looking for a family lawyer to talk to for this.

 

When you are ready to talk to a family lawyer, call these guys:

I am good friends with Andrew Jones. We have used him and many friends, family and even a few from here have used them after my suggestion. Good luck to you. It is never easy dealing with issues like this when it is family.

Curious where you were able to rent the T@B from? My wife and I have been a fan of tear drop campers for a long time to pull behind my Wrangler. The T@B and T@G models are some of our favorites, but they are a bit pricey to buy and retain their value pretty well.

They sound great with the stock exhaust too. Wait until you hear the Durango SRT. I drove one down to Columbus and back last month and loved it. The Hellcat and SRT Charger/Challenger have an active exhaust valve that opens at high throttle applications. The stock car is surprisingly loud.

The stock exhaust sound is probably the one thing I dislike on my 14 Charger R/T. I've spent a lot of time online trying to find a good replacement and just haven't found something that I love yet.

They eat cams and lifters

 

I agree on the cam. My 2014 Charger R/T had to have the cam replaced at 22k miles last October. Other than that, no other issues. I also owned a 2009 Ram with the Hemi in it and never had a single issue with it.

We also used him as an adoption lawyer (at your refrence as a matter of fact, thank you). He was very good for us and made the process as easy as possible.

 

That is great to hear. Andy is a great guy and glad I could point you in his direction.

Sucks to hear. Friend of mine has been in family law since he passed the bar and is now a partner. http://barrjoneslegal.com/ He is the Jones in the firm name. Never had to use him for divorce, but several of my other friends have. He helped us out when we tried to adopt a child a few years back.

Nice looking truck. I miss my 2009 Ram sometimes. Great truck.

Wait so no games will be aired on FSOhio?! how did i miss that.

 

Round 1, Games 1-4 will have the local coverage on Fox Sports Ohio. If Games 5-7 are needed, Fox Sports Ohio will air them as long as the game is not on NBC or NBCSports. Rumor is Game 6 (if needed) will air on NBC

 

Kevin can't watch on FSOhio because he lives out of state.

Not in Ohio - so no FSOHIO. I won't be able to see the game on NHL Network... since I don't get it, and it won't play on the NHL.TV side of things.

 

Shit totally missed that. Keep an eye on the NHL app, they normally allow you to stream a game for free each night. They might open it up with the playoffs.

As someone who is going to have to watch on TV - I am pissed they are on USA, NHLN, and CNBC....

 

Round 1, Games 1-4 will also have the local coverage on Fox Sports Ohio. If Games 5-7 are needed, Fox Sports Ohio will air them as long as the game is not on NBC or NBCSports. Rumor is Game 6 (if needed) will air on NBC, so that will probably be an afternoon game, but I think that would also be the first time a game CBJ have played in has been on NBC

I will be at all the home games. Full playoff package was purchased.

I will take a 33-2460 if you have more than the one

Harry Buffalo in Westerville. I know they have a party room, but I believe it is for parties bigger than 15-20

There seems to be a decent business getting rid of Canadian Geese around Central Ohio. I work in Dublin and with all the man made lakes around business and houses, Canadian Geese are always an issue. Last place I worked, hired a guy in the spring that would use his dog to chase the geese a couple times a week before they started nesting. Never seen a happier dog before.
