Pellegrino, they suck too. Very unknowledgable there. That's where I got my first jeep. They screwed up my current rubi to no end two years ago. I have a whole thread on here about them and what they did to me....Cherry Hill service dept is great but so is MT Ephraims (I had them do a lot of work to my 99 Ram) and they are closer than Cherry Hill so I went there but unfortunately they conned me into the diagnostic work knowing they weren't MOD friendly. Cherry Hill sales dept is HORRIBLE! Bought my fiance a Dart there in January and they treated us like absolute trash and even did the bait and switch, lied and even cursed in front of her. This was another reason for going to MT Ephraim, I wanted NOTHING to do with Cherry Hill after that buying experience. I'm running out of options so back to Cherry Hill since they have done good work for me and I trust their service dept..... I'm just hoping MT Ephraim didn't "dink" my warranty......
My Buddy Bryan just started at Turnersville and he's working with one of the service writes to improve there workmanship also have to keep in mind turnersville is still a relatively new dealership so that have a lot of learning in terms of processes to go. think they have been open less then a year

Default NJ Jeeper new to site

Hi to everyone! As the title says I am from NJ (Morris County) and new to this site. I currently own a 2011 Jeep Unlimited and am dying to put some new goodies on it. First most important thing I hope to get feedback on is Tires. I will be in the market for 35" tires to use on my stock wheels. I have read through many forums as to what people suggest. My major concern is: what is best with our states extreme shifting seasons. I travel all highway to work, about 50 miles total round trip. My main objective is to find a tire suitable for daily use and off road fun. I keep seeing GY Duratracs or Nitto Terra Grappler AT. But keeping in mind some of these posts are from around the country. I wanted to hear some feedback from local people and their experiences. I do remember when I moved here from San Diego a few years back and on my old TJ I had 33 inch BF Mud Terrains and were just OK in the snow and rain. Any info is appreciated!

If I was commuting 50miles a day in my jeep I would be running an all terrain. I had duratracs early on and was happy with them. There several tires new to market that I would look at before making a choice. Toyo RT, BFG KO2, Nitto exo grappler etc. find which one will suit your needs best and which one also suits your budget.

if you thinking about Nittos take a look at ATTuros i have them on my jeep and there too good i really have to try and get stuck and in the rain up to 50 mph you wont notice hydroplaning as the tire disburse the water to quickly, unfortunately i cant give you an opinion on snow yet but i can in o 4 months =P and i think i paid 203 or 223 for mine (at turos) also i drive about 30 miles round trip to work and tires are wearing beautifully if they keep it up ill get 2 years out of them
