December 3- &*(%$#*


Last Wednesday, we took the Jeep up to the RV dealer to get the front tow package put on.  Today we finally got the Jeep owners manual from the dealer where we bought the car.  In it it clearly states that the rear wheel drive model (the one we bought) cannot be dinghy towed!!!!! Made a quick call to the RV dealer and were relieved to find out that the parts had not arrived so no work had been done yet.  They think there is a way to make it work - we are hoping so as our other choice is to sell it and buy a 4 wheel drive model.  The Jeep dealer says they will do a trade in (which you know will cost us thousands of dollars, plus they don't have a used jeep that we want).

Next day - the RV dealer has done great research!  They contacted the jeep dealer to be sure that they had the right specs for the vehicle, then called the tow package company.  Bottom line is that by adding a pump to circulate the transmission fluid while being towed, we will be fine.  It will cost us a bit more, but not nearly as much as trading in the jeep for another one.

Great happy hour tonight!
