    I'm strongly considering a Liberty... ???

    Here's another opinion :) Over the years I've had a 98 Cherokee, 06 Wrangler, and an 01 Cherokee. I liked the Cherokees a lot, except for the 01, which had 125K miles on it when I bought it, and it would have cost more than I was willing to invest in a 9 year old vehicle. I sold it and bought...

    Got another Liberty today

    @tOnKaTrAcKeR, actually mine isn't Patriot Blue, it's "QB8S Midnight Blue Pearl Coat" :) I could post the whole build list but don't want to hijack the thread :)

    Shift into Drive - "Whirrr"

    OK, thanks for the feedback! I don't mind the sound as long as it's normal :). I'm just trying to be careful to slow myself down to wait until the whirring stops before trying to accelerate... I can't imagine it'd be good for it to just "shift & go" before it's done engaging, though when I'm...

    This doesn't make sense...

    Hmmm, yeah. I personally know of two different Jeeps that were involved in serious collisions. One was a Cherokee/XJ, one was a Wrangler/TJ. In both cases the Jeep hit the other vehicle. In one case the Jeep rear-ended the other vehicle. In the other case, the other vehicle pulled in front...

    Shift into Drive - "Whirrr"

    I'm a new Liberty owner ('06, 3.7, 42RLE). When I shift into Drive, I hear a little "whirring" sound ... it lasts for a couple seconds. It sounds like something is moving into position. Is this normal? (libblue)

    Got another Liberty today

    The white one looks good, but I really like the blue one, it's the same color as mine :). To my eyes, that "midnight blue" is the best color for the Liberty :).

    proper operation of flipper glass

    Thanks for all the feedback! Yeah, it's almost always well above freezing here :). But this symptom is happening even when it's in the garage in the 60's. The funny thing is, I just replaced the tailgate struts in my XJ just before I sold it - but that was a different reason - those wouldn't...

    Anti-theft/keyless device/alarm installed

    LibertyTC, I tried the steps you suggested, but wasn't able to come to a conclusion. Maybe I can find out from the dealer that did the work...

    proper operation of flipper glass

    I have an 06 Sport (55K miles) that I bought about a week ago. In reading the forums I think I've discovered the tailgate "flipper" glass is supposed to open automatically when the tailgate key fob remote button is pressed. Mine pops out an inch or two and I need to pull on it to get it to...

    Tires for 06 Liberty Sport

    great so far! Just a quick followup ... I had 225x75x16 Michelin LTX A/T 2's installed on Thursday and have done some driving since then. It's all been on-road, without any snow or serious rain. I've driven on freeways, small rough rural roads, and twisty/hilly roads (coastal Hwy 1 in Marin...

    Cargo/Trunk Setups?

    @LibertyFever, I have mixed feelings about the cargo area storage you showed above. I definitely see the advantage to having small items "contained", to minimize sliding around, keep them in one spot. But in my TJ, I removed the rear seat and installed a large Tuffy lock box. It was great for...

    Thanks, I'll give this a try!

    Anti-theft/keyless device/alarm installed

    Hi All, I'm wondering what you think about this. I just purchased an '06 Sport with just under 55K miles. The Carfax report shows this from 2009, at a Dodge dealer: - Anti-theft/keyless device/alarm installed The Build Sheet from Chrysler shows it came from the factory with this...

    Window repair warranty extended for 06 & 07 KJs!

    Interesting ... this is one of the two things that made me hesitate in my recent purchase of an 06 Sport. It was this and the LBJ issue... I'm kinda afraid I'll park it somewhere and come out to find a window open. I know (according to the Carfax report) one of my window regulators was...

    Tires for 06 Liberty Sport

    I chose the Michelin A/T 2 Hey, thanks for the feedback! I ended up selecting the Michelin A/T 2. It seems like there's no perfect choice in tires when one has needs as diverse as mine. But I've had good luck with Michelins, the reviews are good, and they're very highly rated on Tire Rack...

    Do I have ABS?

    @LibertyTC, those Goodyear Silent Armor tires in the image you posted above have a pretty aggressive tread. The traction must be great. Are they noisy on the highway? Or are they (as the name implies) "silent"? :)

    Tires for 06 Liberty Sport

    Hi All, I'm new to this site, having just purchased an 06 Liberty Sport. It came with four Kumho Road Venture APT tires and a brand new Goodyear Wrangler ST spare mounted on the rear. The Kumho's are still OK for mild street use, but too worn for driving in snow, or probably even heavy rain...
