View Full Version : Thanks for the heads up!!!!
This is a simple thing but it made mine and my passengers day..Thanks to the guys on this board and recommending carrying a spare ignition module..which I would not have known squat about without this board. My girl and I, along with her niece were in rush hour traffic in Milwaukee when it quit :eek: ..5 minutes and we were back on the road..now she doesn't say anything about my time on this board :D !! Thanks

Great feeling, eh? It almost completely eliminates the frustration of the rig breaking down in the first place!
Very cool - and a sure fire way to impress people!

I've had a few road-side-insta-repairs myself... of course, that sucked me into carrying a giant pile of spare parts every where I go... but I guess I'd rather do that, than need to call a tow truck to replace a broken rotor in a ski-area parking lot.
In fact, in that case, I impressed the heck out of the two guys I was riding with. "Don't you have a AAA card?" they wondered. That's the only way they knew how to get a car "fixed" -- I think we jeepers are a dying breed.... people who actually understand (sometimes) what all the doodahs and geegads under the hood do.
'Course, the chicken-egg question: Do we get jeeps because we know and like repairing and maintaining, or do we learn to repair and maintain 'cuz we got old jeeps? ;)
