And just like that, she’s gone! 😢 Transport slipped to this morning. Talk about a tight fit! I think there were about 2 inches of height to spare! She will be delivered to the new owner by noon tomorrow. He pinged me this morning and mentioned that she will continue to be stored in a garage. Nice to know she is going to a good home!

The end of an era! Sold my baby this morning on Bring A Trailer. She’s headed to Oklahoma on Wednesday to start her next chapter. I hope the new owner loves her as much as I have!
Of course that means big changes to this page. I replaced the with a 2025 Ranger Raptor! So “JeepEuphoria” no longer applies.
Have to admit I’m pretty disappointed in Jeep. I just couldn’t wrap my head around the price tag for a new Jeep and what’s in it. In my opinion Jeep is lagging behind on technology and their prices are insane. I mean a new Jeep has the same friggin V6 that my 2013 had in it, but they wanted $30k more than what I paid for my 2013. Absolutely insane! I’m getting a 405 HP engine for $10k LESS than what Jeep wanted for a Rubicon X. And a ton of tech that isn’t in the Jeep (360 camera, various drive modes, on the fly changes via steering wheel buttons for steering feel, suspension dampening and exhaust note). Jeep doesn’t even give you memory seats. Crazy.
Anyway, I’m quite happy with the Raptor. The top doesn’t come off, but boy does that Baja mode put a smile on my face!

Good time today out near Bartlett and Horseshoe lakes! The spillway at Horseshoe is running pretty strong. Where is all that water coming from? 🤔 Seriously, there’s no snow runoff up north in Arizona?

What happens when you mix OAT and HOAT coolant? You form a gel that plugs everything up! Some Jeep dealership somewhere at some unknown time topped off my coolant with the wrong type. My Jeep has a history of overheating on hills. I have the lifetime warranty so I brought it in and asked them to replace the radiator figuring the gel had formed and clogged it up. They refused and said it was my heavy aftermarket OR-FAB bumper and winch that were the problem, so I put an OEM bumper back on and damned if it didn’t stay cool, even on hills. 🤯 I tried flushing the coolant a while back and found a good 3-4 inches of gel at the bottom of the overflow reservoir, but flushing the coolant didn’t solve the overheating issue. I’m sure the radiator is coated in gel.
It’s a pain in the ass to get a radiator out of a JK! Screws are in tight, awkward places, but I got it done! Now I just need UPS to deliver my new radiator so I can put her back together…

She may be getting older, but damn, she cleans up nicely! 😍🥰😍

I drove back up to Green’s Peak to check conditions for next week’s Ride Across Arizona. Lookin good up there now! Still a bit of patchy snow in places, but I expect that to all be gone by the time the ride gets there.

and I went out again to clear a couple downed trees that are blocking the Ride Across Arizona route, but the trees are way, way too big for my little chainsaw. So I went home and gave my Jeep a much needed bath!

Part one of two. The Ride / Race across Arizona gravel bike ride starts May 1st, so I went out to check the conditions along the race route up near Green’s Peak. No bueno. Still some 3-4 ft drifts across the road and some downed trees that haven’t been cleared. Part two will show where it just becomes impassible snow for as far as I could see…
