    2014 Cherokee Review

    I just tried to post the mother of all stories and got timed out cause I did not select remember me, I guess. Sorry but it is almost 2:30 here now so it will have to wait till much later Sat. There are pictures but Jayme has them and said she would post them. Life can be frustrating...

    Long Live The Liberty

    Not making 64 1/2 Mustangs any more either. However, in April of 64, in Rantoul, IL, I ordered my first new car. A Vintage Burgundy, 289, 4V 210 HP on regular fuel, C4 Cruiseomatic, and other things that are now considered standard equipment . I still own it but it is not being driven...

    2014 Cherokee Review

    Had seen this over on JCC. Mute point since mine is on its way and to be honest I only planned to go from 65 to 70 on tire size when its time. My 03 Liberty is not lifted and it did what I wanted it to do. I strongly suspect that my TH will also do what I want it to do. For those that...

    2014 Cherokee Review

    Soon as she gets her, will do. Maybe we might have some fresh snow by then (end of Feb). This old stuff is ugly and not a lot left. My AK plates are gold with blue border and numbers/letters. They have a bunch of other styles too. But like I said these are "Cherokee" plates:favorites37:

    2014 Cherokee Review

    You will have to see the Alaska plates that will be on it. Were first on my 74 Cherokee SJ when I got up here and then on the used 84 XJ. Never did put them on the Liberty. AL7FI is my amateur radio operator call sign.

    2014 Cherokee Review

    Looks like my True Blue Trail Hawk is built and has left or is leaving the factory. Dealer says they expect it to be up here about 2/26. Longer than I would like but she has to get to Tacoma/Seattle first and then its a long boat ride to Anchorage!

    2014 Cherokee Review

    Alas, nothing today either. But then they are building a flock of the critters. Perhaps on Thursday more news. Ya all could bring it up and get a good deal on a loaded 03 LE to drive back....... It's blue and has the off road package..........

    2014 Cherokee Review

    Brother Marlon doth verily speak the truth........ No update this AM. There is always tomorrow. But even after it leaves the lot, it has a long ride ahead!

    2014 Cherokee Review

    I am discounting all from the dealer at this point. Got VOTS notice it went to Frame so it is moving. Shipping from Detroit made no sense to me either. Will keep checking but I think, as you said, VOTS updates daily at 8 local of 4 AK, so we shall what she says tomorrow. Tnx for your...

    2014 Cherokee Review

    Ya know senor, you have opened the clue. He said it was "supposed to be shipping out of Detroit on the 21st". Key word I think would be "supposed". And what you have described is the way it happened. Some folks say once it hits frame it moves fast at least till inspection. That can be a...

    2014 Cherokee Review

    I have no clue and neither does he. Most likely by rail to Seattle and ship from there to Anchorage.

    2014 Cherokee Review

    If you go to Build and Price however, it does not show as a choice. I suspect it is a matter of stuff not being updated as yet. As I said several folk on the Cherokee site said they were able to order them at the dealer and the orders went through. Meanwhile I finally got a notice through...

    bracket for pistol holster

    Well said! Was just asking because I saw the condition of your Colt. I carry a 10mm Delta Elite when in the back country. However not cocked and locked since it is quite a different situation. Mode 2 works for me there.It has the disconnect on it but my 70 series in 9mm does not. Also have...

    Do you routinely carry "cocked and locked"?

    2014 Cherokee Review

    Those Firestones will go away as soon as I get some wear on them. (once the little critter gets up here!) I have had a lot of luck with BFG TA KOs and plan to put a set of 245-70-17s on when the time comes. Not sure as yet if that size will allow the spare to stay in its well in the back or...

    2014 Cherokee Review

    I know the color is not showing for build your own, but there have been some folks that have mango tango on order. It just this month became available to order, but the you build em thingy does not show it yet. Eco green just showed up recently.

    2014 Cherokee Review

    Nope - NO hate here. To each their own! It works for me and that is really all that matters for me since I be paying the bill. I understand a 4 cyl diesel and 6 speed manual are planed for Europe distribution. Strange in that the Liberty was introduced in Europe (as Cherokee) before it...

    2014 Cherokee Review

    I asked them to send it your way for final inspection:party36: I agree on VOTS. Was supposed to be there for at about 2 weeks per the e-mail and then move to production. Nothing heard since. Updates have come about 0400 AK when they came. You get used to waiting up here cause its a long...
