not me.... I had enough of bizarre snow blizzard in state of Washington to last me for couple of years. I hope this winter after summer would be without snow this year!
 
4x4 is never 100% fool proof. There will always be slip off even if it is 4x4 mode. The only thing that makes Jeep different is ability to navigate difficult roads like snow, mud, etc. Again it is not 100% fool proof anyway. I have stuck only once so far and that was like 3 or 4 feet deep mud.

Anyway, yea its been raining like crazy this year... making me wondering whats up with global warming! I seems don't see it up here. Its been nice and cool up here and Im loving it except that rain.

Oh no! you are nuts. I am not looking forward to it. I am tired of driving in the snow, and keep slipping all the way from my home to work. I don't want to deal with that kind of slipping driving. :no:

I know a few ones who have jeep and it still slips as well.

Sure, I was able to drive though 2 feet unplowed snow without trouble.

My wife pizzed off when I refused to shovel the driveway with 2 feet of snow there. We didn't have problem coming in and out of driveway. Nice to have two Jeeps

ha ha My friend rent a jeep for a week included the weekend. that was in 1987. I believe that jeep must be 1983 or 84. I am not sure. so we all rode on that jeep on the beach. my god that was soooooo awesome!!!!
 
Right! I don't like to walk in the snow and get my shoe/boot wet!!!

Once we have the baby, please do snow plow so easier for me to carry the baby.

DHB - If I pay your plane ticket to come out to my place and to convince my wife to LET ME GET A DAMN JEEP now...would you come?? I am looking around for a late 90's model to early 2000 model of wrangler or sahara (sp?) lifted 3 inch or so with skyjacker lifts and 35's. Bikini top for me is the only way to go.

Would you come?? please?? I'll even throw in some beer too!!

My wife's ex-stepdad used to own a Jeep CJ5. Man..that was a BEAST!! 4 inch lift..35 meaty tires..swampers I think they were. One day step-dad, wife and her sister went to store in jeep with bikini top. Started coming home and this idiot in front of them wanted to turn left..but was going so slow to a crawl then eventually stopped. So..stepdad started to pass them on left lane but the car in front of them immediately fast turned left and step-dad T-boned the car. Jeep flipped 4 or 5 times. Sister flew out and landed on pepsi bottles she was holding. She was fine but just few bruises. Step dad and wife was still strapped in hanging upside down. Wifes arm was on concrete under rollbar so jeeps weight was on wifes arm and step dad was passed out with cut on head bleeding onto wife. After a while every body was ok and the idiot went to jail. They got a new jeep Wrangler..again another beast.

Wife is reluctant to get in another jeep. I can understand her point and I support her point completely. I just told her I'd like a play-toy to play in the mud/snow or river crossing. Hmmm I told her its either the jeep..or a FAST camaro. She said JEEP!! lol
 
Been there, my Jeep was on OBX beach (OBX is Outerbank of North carolina). My wife loves to drive my wrangler, driving on beach is totally different than on the road.

Since its been raining alot lately, Im tempted to go in mud bath once again with my Wrangler.

My weekend has been great so far! Except for what happened with my son on Friday night. Sat, the family went to 2 birthday parties and then I had an AWESOME date night with my hubby. Today, we are both fixing things around the house and I just ate my first home grown tomato. Wow, very sweet! I will continue to work on my veggie garden today. :)

How is everyone's weekend going?
 
Not too bad...just been relaxing...take it easy for me...hubby replaced chained link fence...I hate those but oh well....maybe in few years we can replace a whole thing...a big job!

Today just stay home and rest...put laundry away and towels too. Will start to organize camping stuff pretty soon. What to take and not what to take. Also pack some food as well (dry and canned) to camp...save $$ cuz down there, the food is kinda pricey...we only will get just veggies, milk, meats and fruits. So its ok with me. :)

LOL, I would be on your side and would be more than happy to go down!

Sahara would be just perfect choice. I personally dreamt of Rubicon which is the top of line. Sahara is next to top of line. Sport is somewhere in middle. Don't bother with X because it does not have underneath protection if you want to go off-road. SE won't benefit much because its 4 cyclinder and guess what? It gets almost same mileage. Maybe a mile beetter, thats all.

I also am planning to lift my Wrangler with 3 or maybe 4 inch.

Sheesh, I wanna drive that damn CJ5!!!! Yes it is a beast, can go anywhere and I think it is one of best Jeep.

Golly!!! thats bad I now can see where your wife is at. Really, Jeep are not meant to be speeding and if speeding around the corner, that is BAD because of shorter wheel base and higher center of gravity which makes it easier for Jeep wrangler to roll over.

I believe the newer Wrangler Unlimited would be more resist to roll over because of its wider and longer wheel base and that is what I am hoping trade with our Jeep Cherokee. Of course, hoping it will be RUBICON with Manual transmission.
