    Report: Diesel Wrangler On It's Way

    Can you elaborate on that? I'm not up to speed on this stuff and I'd love to be. Hypothetically, if you've done a DPF delete on a given engine, will it run on crappy diesel without damage? Thanks, -Dan

    Side-mount Jerry can holders

    So perfect. Great work! Hit me up when you're near Whitehorse, Yukon. We can find a great campsite near town and share a beer or two :) -Dan

    Life Remotely - From our home in Seattle to Tierra del Fuego in a 1997 4Runner

    Good luck with the sale. You won't have any problems selling it to a foreigner. I sold my Jeep there without issue. Checkout http://wikioverland.org/Argentina#Buy_or_sell_a_car_or_motorbike_in_Argentina. You can do the paperwork in downtown BA without leaving and re-entering the country. The...

    Diesel News: POST HERE

    Now that Chrysler have a diesel in the Jeep Grand Cherokee and the Dodge RAM 1500, it looks like they're aiming for the Wrangler. http://www.egmcartech.com/2013/02/14/report-jeep-wrangler-diesel-is-next-target-after-grand-cherokee-diesel-in-us/ Mike Manley told TheDetroitFreePress that demand...

    Report: Diesel Wrangler On It's Way

    A lot of people have waited a long time for diesels in North America - it really does seem like it's happening. Most people are assuming it will appear in the Wrangler for the refresh (likely 2016 MY) - I wonder if there is any chance Jeep will do a limited run of Diesels for either the 2014 or...

    Official: 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Diesel

    Good thinking. Makes perfect sense. .... It really does look like the whole "Diesels in North America" is finally on the tipping point... :D -Dan

    Official: 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Diesel

    No, I was saying I hope it comes with a manual transmission with the 3.0. I know it's unlikely, but I can hope. As for trim level, I also hope Dodge/Chrysler realize people will want this as a work-horse engine, and so offer it in the absolute lowest trim so people using their truck for actual...

    Jeep Wrangler Habitat Official Release

    Thanks for the awesome reply. It sounds like you and I are similar in our quest for perfection. I wonder if some of that really thin shiny insulating aluminum stuff under the mattress would help? I don't plan on camping anywhere too cold, so it shouldn't be a problem for me. Does it come with...

    Awesome! Please let us know dates as soon as you know, summer fills up fast. I'm a Software Engineer, I'd be happy to help out.... (why not just slap up Drual or Wordpress with a theme and get it going?) -Dan

    Postponed.... The sequel to the Maya Rally 2012 -> The 2013 Alaska Rally!

    I live in Whitehorse, have been on the Dempster numerous times and hunt up there every year. We know of one old trail that leads off, though I don't like your chances in summer, it's a nasty, boggy marsh. We ride it on snow mobiles in the winter. Other than that, you really can't get far off...

    Obviously you can postpone the wedding in preference of the Alaska Challenge. :D I joke, I joke -Dan (kinda)

    Postponed.... The sequel to the Maya Rally 2012 -> The 2013 Alaska Rally!

    I live in Whitehorse, and that's my advise to Christian too. I think we should detour up the South Canol, then up to Dawson. Maybe consider the Dempster instead of the Dalton (More beautiful, less traffic, IMHO). So much to see and do up here, but at least around Solstice it will be easy to do...

    2003 Chevrolet Astro Van AWD - Argentina

    Where is it registered? Depending on how you want to sell it, that's going to limit who can buy it. See http://wikioverland.org/Argentina#Buy_or_sell_a_car_or_motorbike_in_Argentina for how you can get it done. (I sold my Jeep in Argentina) -Dan
