Hi Fil I have joined JeepClub, see you there soon. Had a great laff in the Jeep on Staurday night / Sunday in the snow, the wife is enjoying it today too. Even with the OEM Goodyear tyres i had no probs whatsoever Good times Miff

Hi Chris, Welcome to Jeepland ! We are in North Yorks (where the moors are!) We have had a Patriot for 3 years and now have swapped for a 2010 2.8 Cherokee / Liberty. Some weird bits compared to 'cars' (Why is the accelerator so far away compared to the brake ?, why is there so much...

Plz note that 29.0 mpg (US) = 34.8 mpg (UK) (phew)

well, I have taken the plunge and ordered a chip to be fitted by an auto electrician. Should be happening today. I have had the Jeep for two months and made a note of some 'baselines' to see if anything improves. If it fixes the massive over-rev between (manual) gear changes, I'll be chuffed...

Ignore Yellowcoyote, it looks great ! Miff
