To borrow an idea from comancheclub.com, you put a business card for the website under their wiper whenever you see MJ somewhere, potentially driving up the membership.

I'm just wondering if something like that may be a good idea for us CRDers, see a CRD in a parking lot, leave a card under the wiper directing them to the CRD section.

I can imagine it would save some people some hassle, think of all the people that come onto the website only after having some sort of problem, get them early, get them to read the noob guide, and just think of the problems that could be avoided.....

Thoughts?

I love it, I already do something similar if I see a CRD out in the wild and it is sitting still long enough for me to write a welcome note or something.

I'm not even sure I've ever had a chance to use something like this, I usually only see CRD's when I'm driving.......and driving a vehicle other than a CRD.

I had another 06 LTD park next to me a day after GDEing the Libby and that owner and I got to talking. I know he will have read up on the jeep here because he was almost at tears with how a couple issues were being handled at the dealer (throw parts at it and scratch head then throw more parts) and when I told him about this place and GDE, I think he wanted to hug me.

I could imagine the loneliness people must feel trying to go through a dealer raping expecting and paying the dealer to know whats right... only to find a Pen1s where there really is not supposed to be a Pen1s.....

I may make something up on waterproof paper....

Hello fellow Liberty CRD owner.
I too have a very rare Diesel Liberty and have come across a owners' group on the internet where our vehicles' issues and have been diagnosed, trouble-shot and preventative measures identified for most.

The engine in our vehicles is different, and as such many mechanics (especially dealers) do not give them much love. There are a number of things we can do to make them last and run better. Really if you would like to prolong the enjoyment of your vehicle, I invite you to check out the community at

www.lostjeeps.com/forum/ scroll half way down the page and you will see the CRD section

If you do not want to, there is no need to join unless you want to say hello or ask specific questions; All our information is there for anyone to read and search.

Regards,
Geoff (user tregrrr on the forum)



Just to point those in the wild towards the light. If they choose to come in they can, if not, not harm no foul.

Other day some random guy came up to me and complimented my KJ. We started talking about Diesel's and how he's looking for a CRD with manual transmission, but can't find any in the area.

I did tell him about LOST and pointed to the sticker in my back window :BANANA:

Good idea.
Not only will it help them but us.
If everyone knows how to properly maintain their Libby CRD, more will remain on the road and possibly new parts will be available longer.

Also, I can see a "cult following" for these trucks in later years holding their value up.
Let's keep them running right. :JEEPIN:

I use to never see them my grandfather had the first one in South Carolina and sold it not long before i bought mine. Now i know of one other one in town but i always get compliments on mine and always get ?s why it sounds funny. But i would love beginning able to point more liberties not just CRDs to this site. Of course without being the creepy guy sitting beside your car when you come out of the store :shock: .

This is a brilliant idea. I will print off some 8.5x11, include the text posted in one of the posts and fold them in my glove box ready to be dispensed.

I have only seen 3 of them in my local town but it's a great idea. This forum has been invaluable for me.
