    New to Mitsubishi

    so clean. envious. Local clubs are kinda brand specific, such as Toyota120, SCLR.org, and others, but a few clubs that are more open include "MyJeepRocks" (though it is 99% Jeeps), and the "WayWeGo's" (also mostly Jeeps). Also, check out the "American Adventurist". There is also the...

    LR3 radio volume

    No one commented on the color! Silver plastic instead of black or wood grain. There were about 5 different layers of paint on the original trim pieces, as LRNA tried out a variety of "silver tone" finishes before they ultimately stayed with black or the dealer applied wood tones. The first hot...

    LR3 radio volume

    I was told there were 23 of them, or maybe 27. Mine was an oddity even among them, as it was a mule with an odd set of features as part of an early shipment brought in by LRNA to test different options and configurations.

    LR3 radio volume

    I used a product from an mfr called "USA Spec" (available through Crutchfield) to bypass the Aux input and go direct into the head unit on my LR3. Worked great, no reduction in volume. I located the unit behind the glove box and had the iPhone connector stubbed out of the center console. That...

    Need some tech help in buying an LR3

    I disagree about the sunroof water. This was entirely too common. If you tried to find one without a history of this, you'll never end up buying one. If you can pull the carpet to check for mold, that would be about all I'd worry about. Yes, that amount of bushing play is pretty normal...

    My new Rubicon!

    Congrat's. I have never heard of or seen a grill like that, and I saw the photo before I read your post, and when you mentioned the "Angry Birds" grill I laughed out loud because that is Exactly what it looks like. Too funny. Congrats on the new wheels. May have you have 12 more adventurous...

    The black and white thread (film or digital)

    Ryan, that train bridge photo looks amazing on my iPhone. I'm logged in now on my computer and its a bit small to appreciate, but that really is a great photo.

    Stuck crankshaft pulley bolt

    Demon bolt. Lol The one that gets me is the forward most bolt at the EGR tube connection. And the one behind the AC pump holding the bracket in place.

    DSLR question

    Heres another way to resolve the decision: Do you find yourself "missing the shot"? Newer cameras are fast and can shoot low light, so if there are scenarios where you've "run out of camera" then consider a new body. If not, then play with some lens setups. I highly recommend renting some...

    Gen 3 Cooper at 3 tires

    That's normal with all off road tires. The rubber blend changes throughout the depth of the tire, with firmer, denser, less pliable compounds found deeper in the tread block. This is why the introduction of silicone compounds in recent years is such a boon to tire performance.

    Gen 3 Cooper at 3 tires

    Mpg? No. My LR3 was pretty bad on fuel economy all the time, I never really wanted to know just how much fuel it drank :-)
