Quote: Base jumping seems fun too!! You know what the funny thing is? I'm morbidly terrified of heights. If I climb up a ladder, someones gota get me down, if I look down. I cant walk down a semi-steep hill without holding onto a guys shirt/hand/arm/backpack whatever. So long as it's a guy, whether it be a 13 year old or 50(long story)... With that said, cliff diving will more or so be the end of my life lol.....

McSwain is right after, east of Merced falls and McClure is east of McSwain in Mariposa. They are, to my understanding, one right after the other on the same junction. I've been through Merced Falls but never had an opportunity to go beyond that. I just don't like going to certain places alone. Don't wana make the news as bad news, ya know? Haha!

Well see, I had issues with Two-face about 2 months ago. She wasn't getting out of 1st gear and my dash was lit up like Christmas lights. Brakes were acting up too. Come to find out it was sensor issues. Got that replaced. Than about 3 weeks ago, Jeep wasn't starting. Had to jump start a few times. Took it to the guy who replaced my sensor. He said it was my alternator. Took it to a different guy, recommended by someone at the PD, and he said its not the alternator, I needed a new battery. Well, i replaced the battery. Now, I'm not sure what could be wrong. Kinda leaning towards the fan but I'm hoping that's not it. But last night I had gone for a drive. Coming back home, stopped at a red light, Jeep started shaking. Not crazily, but very noticeable. I hate this so much! My Jeep is fairly new and after all the issues that has been fixed, it should be running like a brand new vehicle but it's not. Poopy piece of mulch!

Do yalls get tired of my essay-like replies? Lol It's otay...this is probably the most reading yalls get in anyways lol jk!
Sounds like nobody is doing any real tests and they're just making you throw money at it, which isn't good That's why I never let anyone touch my jeep, I can't seem to trust anyone but myself with it. I also don't like newer vehicles much myself, seems they are almost designing them nowadays to only last 5 years before they start breaking down, which is terrible, the problems my mom and sister have had with their infinitis are absolutely ridiculous for such new cars. One of them even had to have a new engine put in under warranty because it was burning oil at an alarming rate. Sounds like you need to get a multimeter and get your hands dirty

Man I would do all the work myself if I had the tools. I know nothing about vehicles but I love to learn new things. I did learn a few things and I loved working on my Jeep every bit. The first guy I took my Jeep to, my uncles sent me there. He did full diagnostics and told me what was wrong. But at first he had told me it was my tranny before diagnosing. I was mad! But luckily it wasn't. But I started feeling iffy taking my Jeep to him after him telling me it's the alternator. I knew my battery was gona fail before that. That guy was gona jip me if i hadnt gone elsewhere for a second opinion. It's so hard to trust people around here. Grrrr!!!!!

I honestly wasn't into all this wheeling ordeal til I bought my wk. I know it's not much of a wheeling rig as it is a paver but I still love her. I've gots plans for her but no money I still has my oh so kool leveling kit sitting in the box just waiting to go on.

That really sucks for your mom and sisters cars. Especially it being such high dollar vehicles. I do a lot of driving and have driven over 70k miles in about 3 years. I kinda drove my Jeep to her falling apart on me. But it's well worth it. I've seen lots

Not a weird name. Unique is the word my friend I actually like the name.

Lol two toned cuz my Jeep is two-face. Took it out mudding. Mom refused to sit in my Jeep till I cleaned it. So the person I went mudding with pressure washed half and lightly rinsed off the other half. There's more to the story but that's the jist of it.

Hey SLO guys join the Central Valley Jeeps Facebook group, as the snow starts getting thick on the mountain I'll probably be heading towards the ocean, I've avoided pismo so far this year since my quad is down :-/
