  Patriot opinions         


Author: Earle Horton
Date: Jan 21, 2008 22:43

I am about to order a 2008 Patriot, manual transmission, off road package
with 19:1 crawl to replace a fourteen year old Wrangler. Opinions? Anyone
driven one of these puppies? The salesman tells me they don't order manual
transmission with 25E and AWL for dealer stock, because the tightwads that
tend to order manual tranny like to keep the price down. If I order it, at
least I can get a red one with a sun roof. Or maybe black, damn! I love
the Wrangler but it is not really a super commuting vehicle, although I
still need some off-road capability. I don't really care that the Patriot
has a wimpy four cylinder engine; it probably has a little more oomph than
my present ride. Maybe if I order it I can get a decent axle ratio too.

Thanks.

Earle

Then I'd really hate to see you at a picnic, Bubbles.....

Well, actually I'd hate to actually see you anywhere.

(But I will. Thanks to your Narcissism, I know exactly what you look like,
but the reverse is not true. So be nice to everybody, Cooyon, you don't
want to accidentally make a lion angry. BTW, you claim that you don't get
angry, you get even, but you neglected to say in which century.)

itself, e.g., "bisyllabic", then what about "heterological?" Is it
heterological or not?

If you want to keep the engine with those mods change your gears to a set of
5:56 they will work when you eventually go for a bigger engine.

Some things just bear repeating.....

And BTW, that's 100 PER POAST of mine, got it? (And everyone else you
hate, of course.)

So when/if I poast 10 messages, that's 1000 of your .... replies, or
whatever you call them (actually, you're repoasting some pretty good stuff
there -- I can be really clever at times; too bad you're too st00pit to
understand most of it).

And, logically, if I should poast 50 messages, that would be 5000
'replies', 100 will be 10,000, etc.

Normally, I hate waste, but this is just too much fun!

Hell, you'll have to have an extra portion of lard for din-dins.

How sad to be afraid of your own g0d.

But if you actually knew who/what your god is, you SHOULD be afraid.

Terrified, actually.

Hmmmmmmm. I wonder if all that lard will /ever/ get crispy. Bacon
rinds (pig skin strips, actually) do, but it takes a long time, and a pig
is nowhere near as fat as Billie the Lardboy.

  You are so increasable stupid as to not what batch file is.

Just had to poast this classic chunk of illiteracy from Chunky Cheezebill.

It's particularly funny considering he didn't even read his own link. He's
not sending a batch file (*.bat), he's sending a batch of files.

Of course, we couldn't actually expect him to know better, could we?

Now Billie, we'd suggest you 'up the ante' to at least a 25:1 ratio.
Ten-to-one just isn't cutting it, and it's a very far cry from the 100:1
you PROMISED us. (and none of that made-up contest crap, puh-leeze)

Of course, you are faltering, you are tiring, and you are most certainly
failing.

And get someone to set your clock for you, computer genius.

  starter questions         


Author: kirayotaka
Date: Jan 21, 2008 15:09

ive got a 90 Cherokee, and when i try to start it sometimes (almost
every time recently) the starter seems to cut in and out from the
flywheel. it turns the engine over a time or two then it stops turning
the engine and you just hear the whiiiiiring of the starter motor
going but no engine movement. ive never had a starter do this, is it
common? maybe i could just fix the solenoid? thnx.

  Best (or any) site for this OEM replacement part ??         


Author: rock_bustin

After an Early AM Fender-bender,...

As near as I can see damage is minimal but part has been hard to
locate on-line today.

Vehicle: 1997 Green TJ Sahara

Part Needed : Left Front Fender Flare & Side Light. (Wiring looks
OK).

My Location: Northern VA.

I care more about the flare as side lites seem to be pretty
available.
Finding the OEM on-line has been a bear. Looks like an easy job if
I can find the part. Are those just screws or what holding it on?

MY Thanks in Advance,

Andrew
