New Rubicon X coming to the Tri-Cities!

Postby 4 LOW » Tue Jan 28, 2014 9:14 pm

Hello all!

My wife and I just purchased a new '14 Rubicon X and it will be here a week from Saturday (Feb 8th). It is currently waiting for me in Nebraska...long story that I will have to explain at the next meeting which I won't be able to make until March, as I will be heading to NE next week to pick up the Jeep :thu2:

Will post pics as soon as I have them!

OK - sorry, here is the summary: Jeep left Omaha on Thursday 6:30 in the morning and rolled into Richland at 5:00 pm local time Friday 1550 miles later. Trip consisted of dry interstate, 6" of snow, and high winds. NO ISSUES :-)

Glenda got to put in town miles on it over the weekend running errands in the snow!

I left again Monday afternoon transversing the pass with snow, ice and slush (4WD works great) and the Jeep and I are in Kent for business. I love this thing! Ride is great and the look is awesome. Just waiting to try the off road part very soon hopefully!

Now how the heck to post those pics....?

8) Awesome. Congrats on the new Jeep.

Free off site hosting works best for me. I use Photobucket.

Rob, you don't need to host through a photo service....I don't. Here's what you have to do.

1. Click on Post Reply to open your dialog box.
2. Click inside block to set whatever intro you would like.
3. Click on upload picture.
4. Click on Browse.
5. Go to folder with your pictures in it.
6. Double click on the picture you want to upload.
7. When window opens click on send.
8. Your chosen picture will pop up. (this may take several seconds)
9. Once picture uploads scroll down to bottom of page.
10. Click on either "Standard" or "Insert picture and upload another one" (depending on if you want to load more than one picture)
11. Click on "Standard" after the last picture you want to upload.
12. Picture will appear as a line of code in your dialog box.
13. When you're all finished click on submit.

Hope this helps.

Danny, I think your directions only work for members.
Okay, we're a little crazy to have a Duramax for a daily driver. But if we go off our meds, we might wind up in a Prius.
