JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

That's just confirmation I made the right decision to move out here years ago from the sand dunes of Indiana on Lake Michigan.

Nothing. My YJ went through several ice storms. You get inside and hit the top with your fist. It will break the ice which simply slides off in the first 10 feet of vehicle movement. Please make sure there are no cars behind you
We had a small amout of ice over the weekend. As I type, a major ice storm is approaching

Living here, in the winter, I don't get to say this too often........that is some crappy weather you are suffering through!

It's rare that we get ice, but it does seem like it snows every day.

I've seen some interesting Christmas displays but really, this is just too much. Nice even job though. Do you have it lighted for a night display? I've wondered how the tires would do on ice. I guess you'll find out when you drive across the road to help out with those trees.
