In my opinion this is all a huge trap. Currently, there are millions of these in the public. There is a team of 4 people working on the registrations. It will take YEARS to get through all the paperwork. There is NO EXEMPTION if you've sent in your registration and their paperwork takes longer...

I thought I'd reply with a follow up. My fam bought me this, and we used it on a 10 day "touristy" trip to Michigan's upper peninsula. It is indeed a 22" dual burner flat top grill. It weighs a lot (32 pounds) and does tend to drink up the propane. They make an adapter hose long enough to...

Good to see someone who understands actual engineering and manufacturing practices. Any company spends $ on R&D to make a product. It is ridiculous to think they'll just shelve the product after a time for no reason. The longer it is kept on market, the more return on their R&D investment they...

Question: Is there a way to integrate the radio into vehicle head units like UConnect? I'm envisioning being in the Bluetooth or AUX mode on my Jeep, and hearing the radio over the vehicle speakers. Added bonus for using the steering wheel "talk" button as a PTT. Is this even remotely possible?

Does anyone use this model? How has it held up? Have you found a hard case for it, such as a storage bin?

I'm not interested in the rails but I do have to say awesome user name =) Also, from Brighton MI. =)

Hello all, The new wheels and tires are now on! Here's some info I couldn't find elsewhere: The AEV 2.5" lift lifted the front about 3.25" and back about 3". The BFG KO2 315/70R17 tires measure 33.5" high on the vehicle. Tire pressure @ 40 psi. On an unloaded Wrangler JKU. The BFG KO2...

OK folks, I did a bit of a change up and ordered the 315/70R17's. Yes, it'll be a bit lower off the go, but I decided that rather than save up for tires and regearing in the future, I might as well get what I want and regear when I save that. One step ahead. I'm not going to be towing until...

I got the AEV 2.5" lift kit installed on Friday last week, and had the opportunity to drive it 100 miles highway, about 2 miles dirt road, and about 200 yards offroad. It still has stock wheels and tires. Simply put: This lift kit turns the JKU into what it should have been from the start. The...

Yeah, sounds like we're going the same route here. I really like the AEV Severgne (spelling?) wheels so decided to tone down the tires and get better wheels too. All my research says the AEV is overpriced for what you get, but that it is a more complete lift system than some of the other...

Based on the replies here and a few other places, I think the wise bet right now is to go with the 285/70R17's for now. The $ I save on these over the 315's will help offset a better wheel choice, and when I tow the popup will work a bit better. I'll immediately start saving for regearing, then...

Good point. I have a ton of miles on her already so 'warranty' is somewhere in the rearview mirror. =)

You people just plain rock. Yes, I am getting the ProCal. I live in the gentle rolling meadows of Michigan. I will eventually be hauling an approx 2000 pound pop-up camper. I'm fairly sold on the BFG KO2 tires. They are a great balance of onroad and offroad. I'm not opposed to trimming...

Automatic. I'll look into those tires as well. Thanks!

Thank you! I do have 3:73. =) D
