A topless Jeep CJ5, beach volleyball groupies and a monkey…
Ah, the memories of my misspent youth (buy me a drink and I’ll tell you about the monkey). I’m now retired and the only groupies I have are little old ladies in the bridge club. I do though have a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon JLU and spend as much time off-roading as possible. When I’m not hitting the dirt I’m busy bringing you a variety of content. Including interviews with industry experts–and unlike some websites (cough, litebrite, cough) there’s no charge here–trip reports, off-road gear and equipment reviews, Jeep modification and maintenance, trail information, editorials and much more.
Check out my blog, which is full of priceless information, insightful observations and other such nonsense, and don’t forget to subscribe so you can be one of the cool kids and always know what’s going on around here.

Jeep JL/JT Cabin Air Filter
While the JL/JT cabin air filter is well hidden behind the glove box, it is very easy to replace. According to Jeep, it should be swapped out every 20K miles. If you’re doing much off-roading though 12K is probably a better idea.
