    well hate to see you leave but hey at least you bought ford, about 6 months ago i bought a but load of ford stock for a quick flip but since thin it has went down about $3. a share so i am stuck in it but at least it pays a great dividend so with that ill get even in 3 yrs. even if it doesn't go back up, but it will go back up they have a great line up in trucks and with them redoing the super duty trucks that will start paying off in the coming yr. but i digress, so anyways dont drop a load of concrete blocks into your truck bed like the chevrolet people do theirs,   lol,    if you know what i mean.....

    Hello everybody. It was a great two years of ride with DJ. A lot has happened in the life and with the car. I've had mixed feelings leaving DJ at the dealership. Great car that can handle almost everything you throw into it, but I'm off to another ride. Thank you folks for keeping the forum live - i referred to the forum for experience and inspiration, even though admittedly haven't contributed enough to the forum.
    All the best to all DJ owners and see you in this big small world!

    I did something last week that I have never done before.  I have always bought cars from Dealer Inventory.  I have never ordered a car in my life.  For those who may remember, I purchased my DJ off of the lot, solely for the color:  Copperhead Pearl.
     

     
    2 years ago, I was shopping for a Cherokee Trailhawk, but I was taken back by the color of the DJ, and purchased it instead.  The thought of a Cherokee Trailhawk has haunted me for two years.  So, I went online and built one in Mango Tango, and was prequalified to purchase by Chrysler Capital.  My Salesman from my Dealer called me last Saturday.  He could see what I had built, and made an appointment for me to come in Monday.  He found 2.  One was very close to my build; the other not so much.  The one that was close had two things that I didn't check off:  Technology Group, Black Wheels, and 2 things were missing:  Remote CD player (The new 8.4s do not come with a CD Player) and the Cargo Cover.  The CD player would be located in the Console and I can always purchase a Cargo Cover.  The Salesman tried to order my build from the factory, but Mango Tango is no longer a paint option.  He made me a deal that I could not refuse and I got 0% financing to boot.  Here she is:


    Radio uses Apple Apps and Siri, so I have a lot to learn.  It has been a good two year ride here, but I am off to the Jeep Cherokee Forum.

    Try  theretrofitsource.com.
    there are other reputable companies out there that build hid kits. Buying a reliable kit is better than building your own, imho.

    Totemus got a reaction from OzarkTroutBum in Where do you place you phone with the 8.4 touchscreen   
    After making a research (including this forum members survey), I found this working the best for me:
    http://www.amazon.com/Sinjimoru-including-Lightning-Charging-Package/dp/B00MLZZ7KA?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage
    Minimalistic and clean sight. One issue - they use proprietary charging cable, so you have to decide micro USB or lightning, but not all cords will fit into the bracket. The seller replaced my cord for free, though (I'm not affiliated with the seller).
    Also tried cupholder mounting solution, but switched to the above.

    Decided to dip over the red fender stripes with black and added pin strip within. At any time I can peel it off and the red will still be there not damaged if someone was wondering about plastidip. Also dipped the handles 7 heavy coats each and painted the fuel door as well. Also yesterday I finally painted the front black trim on the bumper gloss black Looks fresh and

    Sorry, didn't make any pictures of the process... They replace the original plastic skirts and fit right into the original side holes. You have to mount them on the supplied metal brackets, though.

    I've had mine VHT tinted for a year with no issues, BUT I have lower reflectors converted into breaks:turns as well. So in total I have five break lights (2 lower + 2 middle + 1 high). Hope even the oldest dudes can see at least one of them LOL
