I talked to him about the time he fixed my Cherokee as a service tech at Sparks CJD and the service writer next to him, named Mike, asked me if I worked at UPS in Kannapolis. I said no and he said, "Well, you must not have your Cherokee anymore". Mike said that he not only remembered me and my Cherokee but that he remembered the exact day that I was talking to Roger about. Apparently he was a service tech at Sparks CJD too! When I sounded astonished he described the Cherokee exactly down to the fact that I had told them that I had color matched the bumpers myself.

That's awesome that they're fixing it. I still have to take mine in for the front locker no longer working.

Glad to hear the fan was fixed. Must be nice to get good service - I can't even get a the sport bar bolt to hold in my freedom top and it was missing from day 1!

Roger is the man, only one I ever let work on my junk.

For those who forgot what the parking lot was like...

Random pics along the trail




Thanks everyone for such a great time.
I think I heard a June 13th date tossed around - which is ample time to install some mods
