I had be searching for a ride for about 2 months. scouring the internet, auto trader, cargurus, craigslist the works! and i had been flipflopping between a 2004-06 renegade or limited (and then make it look like the renegade) and a basic model KK Sport. what i drove home on saturday last weekend amazed me.

In the end i decided upon my baby: here she is!
2009 Jeep Liberty Sport 4x4 Trailrated:Brilliant Black
25,000 Miles
-Wrangler all weather tires.
-Remote Start
-Android Car mount
-150W Inverter

(Oh, and every time you call a Jeep a "car", you kill a cat... so, nice JEEP!) :jester:



In that case, nice "car". :twisted:

PS: You have nitrogen in your tires. :D

The wee green caps on the valve stems.

Nice JEEP.

Note: Never pay to have nitrogen put in the your tires. The so called benefits do not outweigh the cost. Better off checking the pressure yourself once a week.

True.

The only place I put nitrogen is in aircraft tires/accumulators/landing gear emergency extend systems......

I have a special blend in my tires!

~78% Nitrogen
~21% Oxygen
with some Argon, Carbon Dioxide, Neon, Methane and Helium thrown in for good measure.

Works GREAT :pepper:

Brendon, that's the same blend I use. Wouldn't be surprised if we use the same supplier. :D

Actually surprised me that it works as well as it does (Christmas gift/stocking stuffer)!

Nice choise on the weather tech liners - they LOOK like they fit great. I'm trying to work up the nerve to order them a) with wife's premission, or b) with her future forgiveness hehehe

Regarding a hitch, I'd definitely NOT cheap out - I'd just go with the mopar hitch. It's a bit more $$$ but, imho, looks WAY better to the U-haul and other aftermarket hitches. I'll see if I can dig up my pictures....

Ahh. here's the link to the thread: http://www.lostjeeps.com/forum/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=88&t=55648

If you look at your rear bumper, there's a little indent/line around the center, you have to cut that off and the mopar hitch tucks up inside that piece. Best tool I had to cut it? Exacto Knife. Seriously, I cut a piece of my bumper off, with a fricking knife.
