isn't that a standard fire extingusher? Or is it a dry one?

Beats me haha. Box said it'll put out a fire.

Well just be careful because if it's a fire due to fuel it can actually spread the fire instead of putting it out. And I'm not sure about electrical fires. But hopefully none of us ever need to use it. :mrgreen:

I got mine at home depot and it is specifically for auto fires. I'm assuming it should put out any fire on my jeep (knock on wood)

It definitely uses AFFF, not to worried about alpha (wood, paper)-bravo (fuel)fires. Charlie (electrical) I'm screwed without that dry stuff haha (can't remember what it is, but it's usually a silver can).

I backing in the driveway of this house I was meeting my realtor at and kinda got a little stuck. It was mainly the fact that I was going to slow but It was kinda sloppy. The moral of the story is the stock tires SUCK!! Glad I had my folding shovel. Dug it out a bit and gave her hell. Had to rock it back and forth for like 10 min to get her out.

How is the wind noise at highway speeds?

Haha yea I am def getting some at2s this year! The noise isn't bad on the rack. I put some plexi glass on the front but I have to remove it when I put snowboard racks n such on there. May get a yakama wind defletor at some point

Today I was on the interstate when a Kia suv passed me and merged directly in front. His radiator had blown and was spraying a cloud of coolant under his vehicle and all over mine. I don't think he realized it. He continued at high speed and got off the next exit. Just before exiting, the thick spray of coolant from his radiator ceased. Uh oh, I thought. Head gasket or seized engine waiting to happen! Needless to say, my Jeep needed a good wash after driving through a cloud of radiator coolant. I don't know for sure, but I suspect coolant can dissolve automotive paint, so I found a do it yourself car wash within 10 minutes. My paint looked good as ever after being hosed down, soaped, rinsed, and waxed. :JEEPIN:

Yesterday I drove into a parking garage and felt WAY TOO BIG haha. It had a clearance of 6' 6" and I hit every single ceiling sign. I had to hold the antenna down so it would stop hitting the cement rafters haha. I was very worried for my roof tire...

was in that predicament last Saturday. I had to go to the top of the garage (10 levels) and had a very large pile up behind me. I had my 2 antennas being murdered. I think the other cars felt my pain.

My "co pilot" failed to mention that I would be taking a lifted vehicle into a tight parking garage. by the looks of it I had an inch or so of clearance to spare from the solar panel.

Mine hits at 7 foot, lots of parking garages I can't get into due to them being 6'6" of course those are always the ones closest to where I want to be :banghead:

It's a sad reality...but I won't change my KK just to just in a parking garage though. I'm too proud hahaha.

tommudd · **Posted:** Mon Mar 16, 2015 10:59 am

I won't either, even sold my Rock Lizard roof rack so it wouldn't hit. Top of the rails in back were already scrapped so you know it was close.

SOOO, random thing I wish to do now. In case my pain for the new door doesn't match up perfectly I'm going to Monstaliner it... http://www.monstaliner.com/monstaliner_kit_contents.htm

I also really do like a green KK with black flares so I'm going to bedline in this color:
