Well I am from Beloit, Just recently relocated up to The Twin Cities for work.  Bummer this thread just turned up. There is another Member on here from Beloit, also one from Wauwatosa. If you frequent here you may have already known that. I use to Conduct Trains right throw your neck of the woods though.  Good Luck putting something together. Im always breaking my neck trying to look at ever KJ I see parked or on the road, looking for that ever so rare CRD emblem. Trying to at least wave at another CRD owner, or leave a note. |

Hey guys, new to the CRD (this April) but not new to diesel. I see other F.I.B.'s are welcome, so I thought I might try to invite myself. I live in Chicago and my golf tdi had had some traction issues with the real winter we had last year. I think the jeep will help in "The City That Works" but doesn't plow it's streets or fix the potholes (lol.) |

I'm in Wauwatosa. And I'm on my 2nd CRD. I really like what this little mule can do. Hoping to put an OME lift on it in the not too distant future. (Spring) I also run to the north woods as often as funds and schedules permit. Having a group of CRDers close by would be cool! I believe there was is at least one more in the New London/ Oshkosh area. |

Hey guys, I'm in Gurnee and spend every weekend up in Wisconsin and have a Dark Khaki Limited. My brother is in Cedarburg and has a Red Sport. We both have about 85K and will need timing belts next spring. It might be a good group event. I have seen Bugnut on his way home from Minocqua previously. He is not on line very often anymore. On June 30 I saw a Blue Sport WI plates 930 XXX at the Zoo interchange. Was it anyone of you folks? On Labor Day I passed a Silver Sport on I-94 heading south at the border. The driver gave me the thumbs up as I passed. Any takers? Periodically I see CRD's but not frequently. I hear John's Dark Khaki CRD is now out west. He was a member of LOST. |

I have the tools to do the belts. Also you may want to do the belts soon. Age is what is going to kill it not the miles. |

Where about's in the Twin Cities are you? My wife and I have seen glimpses of another red CRD, but never got close enough to wave or anything. We are in Anoka/Coon Rapids area, and I've seen a blue CRD in St.Michael/Albertville area too, those are the only two I have ever seen in the flesh, and I always look for the CRD badge when I see a libby, wife often wonders what the hell I am doing, lol. |

TC metro as well, but my CRD badge tends to hide behind stuff. Hard to mistake my truck on the roads though.

Probably not yours that I've seen up in the north metro then, my wife or I see it on a fairly regular basis. Still good to know there's others in the general area though

That jerrycan holder on the back, is that part of a custom bumper, or is it mounted to the rear door? |

I split my time between Elgin IL and Lac Du Flambeau WI. Hoping to soon be living up there full time. Right now my CRD is in the garage waiting for me to find the time to do the rocker arms. I should have replaced them when I did the head bolts. |
