    Love the 4Runner

    If you reset the mpg indicator it will immediately begin calculating a new "average mpg" from the time you reset it. It will eventually get back to around where you were prior to reset.........unless of course you're on a 6% down grade, and then you can brag to your friends that you got 99mpg on...

    First 5 months with 13 LE

    Manual shift is the key. Sometimes I feel like I'm pushing it, but the engine is very happy in the 3500-4000 range and does its best work there when towing on a grade. I do wish the final gearing was slightly lower; I would sacrifice 250 rpm on the hiway @ 70 for a bit shorter gears. But, these...

    FS:5th gen Black Sheepskin seat + armrest covers. Nashville TN

    Bump.....these are really nice for protecting the thin fabric on these seats.

    FS:5th gen Black Sheepskin seat + armrest covers. Nashville TN

    Excellent condition, non smoker, Rocky Mountain Sheepskin (brand) Custom fit Australian seat covers. Includes console cover which is super comfortable. Only reason for selling is I sold my 2012 SR5. Great in summer or winter; they add padding to the seats as well for increased comfort. Separate...

    Would you do this?

    WV Runner.......Bilsteins helped a lot especially with the nose dive. Still not as firm as the Limited, but perhaps the 20" wheels have a bit to do with that. A definite improvement. Regarding the Limited's stereo, I think it is the same as it does not have the JBL system with the 15 speaker setup.

    Considering purchasing a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee

    I appreciate that. For my wife it's absolutely perfect. She'll never go off road further than a horse trail/dirt road. She can haul her horse trailer and Paso Fino just fine, and pick up 24 bales of hay. Back on the Jeep.-1 in 2 will see the shop for repairs, according to 1engineer, and I...

    Would you do this?

    Drove a '13 Limited today to compare handling to my 2012 SR5 (with Bilstein HD's). Nice! I sure liked the feeling in the corners.....mine, even with the Bilsteins doesn't track like this. Been thinking about doing the "upgrade", not liking the 2014 re-do. Found this 2013 Limited (same blizzard...

    Considering purchasing a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee

    Very cool......I think many are put off by either the looks or the "unibody" structure. I owned mine until my wife stole it. Met a mechanic on our camping trip last weekend and he swears by "Asian-American" vehicles. Says he built his business and got rich fixing Ford, Chrysler and GM vehicles.

    Considering purchasing a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee

    Thai--no issues after 81000 miles. It was due for rear brakes next service--they were original. That's why she bought another RL. Absolutely bullet proof with zero issues. Only issue I saw on the forums was the trans cooler lines to the radiator. Subject to corrosion after 100k requiring...

    Considering purchasing a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee

    I see many of you ragging on the Ridgeline. Hate to burst your Toyota bubble, but the Ridgeline tows every bit as good as my 2012 SR5. Perhaps even better as it has 4 wheel indy suspension which keeps it planted on hi-speed bumpy curves. I've towed our former Hi-Lo with both and the Ridge...

    Considering purchasing a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee

    I test drove a 2014 JGC after curiosity got the best of me. I found the 8 speed rather "clunky" along with a complete lack of interior places to put things. Jeep clearly is pursuing a "luxury theme" and I didn't feel at home in it. Once you get past the "glitz" factor, surf the forums...

    Ready for a change I guess. Hi-Lo was getting long in the tooth and needed some repairs and we wanted something different.
