2012 "User Guide" instead of manual....but it doesn't fit in the glovebox?!?!?

Why don't you guys go the the Jeep website under "OWNERS" and register your name and vehicle on the Jeep website.... using your VINs. It has free PDF manuals dating back to MY 2004.
Right there you'll have your service contracts, recalls and other stuff... download the owners manual, PDF format. You can order stuff and keep tabs on your service history...
I ordered the printed version for my 2010 SRT8 and I rarely look at it ... I use the PDF manual and perform a search and get the info I need faster than reading the entire printed book. For example, search "break in" and you'll find the break in procedure hidden in a small paragraph that's not listed as part of the index... small stuff like that is valuable when you first buy your Jeep.
I also have service and recall records for my 1991 Jeep Cherokee listed right next to my 2010 Cherokee SRT8.
I ordered the printed owner's manual for my 2010. The most it has been used is when I was sitting on the can ... but other than that I would rather search a PDF file using my PC.

The techical publications group is still writing the book.. typical large company syndrome.
That's why they're shipping a worthless user guide with the vehicle.... gets around the consumer laws requiring operator manual availability at the time of sale.

There are plenty of people who have no job, no jeep or car, and little hope or help.
Does the owners manual seem that important in context?
Enjoy what you have and be thankfull you have it. Then go out and work hard for yourself and family and give help to those who need it.
Sorry for preaching.
Enjoy the jeep!

Let it go. There are far more important things to think about in life. Like is your job secure. Do you have enough insurance. Are friends with ailments going to be ok. Will the economy ever recover. How will you save for retirement or college education in a secure investment.
