It is crazy, like I said my wife came over on a US Government program, they brought her here to teach languages .
While here she taught at Ohio University first, then for 1.5 years taught at both Harvard and Boston University's, then back to OU.
They wanted her to stay at Harvard and also was interviewed and had a position offered to her at Dartmouth College if we could of gotten her Green Card.
Even letters from them didn't help, State Department still said no.
So its all ridiculous and of course I have heard at least 10,000 times, " Don't know what is taking so long for you to bring her over here, you two are married so its automatic isn't it?" :banghead:

People watch way too many movies and actually believe what they see and hear. :ROTFL:

Most roads can be done in a stock liberty. Some roads may be to much for stock ones depending on weather conditions and how rutted they have become. But for the most part a stock 4wd can hang. So don't be afraid to come if you are stock. You may have to miss out on some though. I plan to progress in toughness as the day goes on as best I can. There are none well run that you can't run on open difs and a set of mud tires.

I will be in a kia sorento with open difs and 235 85 16 mud tires.

You will probably want a tow point of some sort.

Sounds good to me! Just got a backbone from ted, so the front will be covered and i have the "free" hitch so back is covered too. Just for clarification tommudd, the title says 7/27 but then you said june 27. I missed the first list of dates, so june or july?

Me and my buddy are good to go for the 27th of June. May hang through Sunday depending on weather, Tom's cooking skills, etc. :mrgreen:

But Tom, here's to your wife and son getting here by then. That would be cause for a LOST celebration, eh?

got a job interview tomorrow down thataways (athens), if it all works out and i'm living down there by then count me in! i'd love to come out and meet ya'll from behind a windscreen instead of a computer screen. if i get the job i should have the jeep all lifted and taken care of by then.

I'm possibly in as well.

If I get my other jeep the 06 Liberty sorted out by then. It developed a drive train problem last Monday. Coming up 21 north and all of a sudden it acts like its in neutral, only park seems to function properly, all other gears act like neutral. The only symptoms are the neutral thing, a whine from the trans when its in drive when I rev it and NO Codes. With some research I found a person on another forum that had similar problem and it was the spline on the TC that just separated/stripped out. Picked up a new euro TC, filters, a trans go kit, and fluid. Maybe if I get that done this weekend I'll still be in.

Sorry to hear that, Jayme. Was looking forward to meeting you two in person - but hope the healing goes quickly and you're feeling yourself real soon :wink:

Think you'll be able to make ECS in October?
