And while were on the subject, Who misses throttle cables? I'm still not a fan of this modern day Drive by Wire stuff. I wish there was some kind of throttle cable conversion kit!

Sorry not trying to hijack or get off subject!

I baby mine, like all my vehicles. I change gears between 2000 n 3000 rpms. Once in a while I open her up, but don't beat on her.

I ride her hard and put her away wet. On the trail that is. On the road pretty conservative maybe 5 over.

My Jeep decides how it wants to drive itself sometimes...

A couple times a week, on the back road stretches with no houses, she gets revved through the first couple gears just because it is fun....but not above 85 or so. I think the handling sucks above that.

In traffic..usually 5 over the limit unless I have to pass.

I have mostly stopped the 0-60 hard launches after going through a set of BFG's way sooner than neccesary and considering that the stock T-case, drive and axle shafts are still intact.

2 door Wrangler's are such fun little go-karts even on the road.
