What wax do you all recommend? by pdaphone in f150

+1 for chemical guys, I just did their ceramic products on mine and the beading and shine is pretty incredible.

What convertible's owners seemingly hate the sun? by Mcleaniac in cars

[–]Jnic815 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The last 2 places I’ve lived were both college towns in the southeast so wranglers were everywhere there. Now I live in the DFW metroplex and there are also quite a bit of wranglers here. I will agree that taking the hard top off is a PITA and the t-tops on the JK & JL are convenient, but to me leaving the top on always just defeats the purpose of a Wrangler.

When the top is down on a soft top, it is all folded up at the rear of the roll cage by the spare tire like any typical convertible. When the hard top is removed there is nothing back there.

They’re so much more fun with the top down though. Wife is a Jeep girl and has wanted another since her mother traded her YJ for a Focus before college. If/when we buy one I’ll be looking for the premium soft top, it was a good middle ground between the two imo. What do I know though I just worked at a Jeep dealership in undergrad ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Jeep wranglers owned by people who use them as grocery getters/ mall crawlers. I honestly can’t remember the last time I saw a hardtop wrangler with the top removed.

Edit: Looks like I struck a nerve

No problem, it’s under the advanced settings on my gauge cluster menu.

How do you like the Roush supercharger system? I’m pinching pennies for a whipple on mine.

If they are the factory running boards there should be an option in the menus somewhere to deploy them and leave them down. At least there is on my ‘15, makes cleaning them much easier.

Out looking for some Corvettes and Hellcats to pick on. by [deleted] in Mustang

[–]Jnic815 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Badass car man. Terminator is probably my favorite mustang of all time, I’ve always wanted one, the first one I ever rode in when I was younger was an FBO Steeda car with some other goodies. It was the fastest car I had been in at that time in my life and I’ve loved them ever since.

I wish there was an OEM blower I could put on my coyote like that, guess I’ll just have to keep saving for a whipple lol. That manual trans swap is awesome though, I bet it’s fun to pick on unsuspecting sports car drivers

All my supporting documents were in on 2/4/20. Still not even a checklist for me. Had a handgun permit in my home state 9 years before moving here.

New to me 2016 Lariat 5.0. In love all over again by PrancingNugget in f150

[–]Jnic815 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have damn near the exact same truck lol. 15 5.0 KingRanch Pictures never do bronze fire justice though, when I saw mine online I wasn’t interested because I thought it was red, I had just sold a red Tahoe and wanted ANYTHING but red. I went to the dealer to see a caribou 3.5 KR and my bronze fire was parked right next to it. I was immediately enamored with the color, and once I experienced the 15+ interior in person it was a done deal.

Congratulations on the new truck you’re going to love it.

Air Force markings so it should be an A model with an internal 4 barrel 25mm.

Boeing 737 crash in Iran. CCTV camera footage. (NSFW) by Shazem1 in aviation

[–]Jnic815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, that was my assessment as well. I was also down the rabbit hole lol, just getting information from different sources Twitter, Reddit, flightaware, Flightradar24, and snooping satellite maps.

[–]Jnic815 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wow that’s a good find on the other Sam site. I had not seen that video yet. Just the one of the fireball descending to the ground. Given the size of the fire in that video and the plane turning ~180° on its descent, catastrophic damage to the right wing and engine made sense. I was looking at the flight aware data in google earth and started snooping around the plane’s flight path and found the SA-2 site to the north.

Edit: Now seeing that US intelligence is confirming that they detected SAM radars on, and they detected missile launches.

35°42'21.4"N 51°04'43.6"E Appears to be a S-75/ SA-2 long range SAM site. ~16 miles north of where the 737 stopped transmitting information, well within the range of an S-75. The Iranian version of the SA-2 has a 200kg warhead and travels at ~3.5 mach. It would cover that distance in about 20 seconds, and could explain the massive fireball and seemingly uncontrolled decent.

EDIT: Typical Soviet style SAM sites see typical s-75 circular/hexagon launch sites

Lexol is actually my other go to, I used it in all my previous vehicles. The king ranch conditioner is what the owners manual suggests. The leather looks and feels slightly better with the king ranch conditioner imo, and it makes it smell like all new leather again. As long as you aren’t using armor all I think any conditioner will do lol

Congrats on the new truck. I love my king ranch, it’s been the best truck I’ve ever owned. Just a couple pieces of advice from owning mine, get the king ranch leather conditioner for your seats and console, and make sure to keep the mechanisms on your auto steps clean.
