Default You know what "Grinds my Gears"?

Not sure if anyone knows of this family guy episode but I think it could be a good place to vent.

It's a knock off of what that country radio station had that redneck vent about saying "you know what makes me sick"?

anyways....

You know what grinds my gears?
The fact that the O/D off button doesn't light up at night with the instrument lights on...

You know what else makes me sick?

The fact that the GPS input is disabled at .01 mph. If the tires are moving at all, it's disabled. Did they completely neglect the possiblility that we might be carrying a passenger? They could easily have it setup up like the airbag that uses a weight sensor.

My gears grind everytime I put in reverse if I don't hold it in there.

Whatcha talking about Willis?

Mine lights up just fine.


The OD light comes right on in plain view on the dash accompanied by the rev in rpms whenever I hit the button by error.





Oh, you meant you would actually like the button itself to light up?

If it's completely dark, it's hard to find in that stupid spot in front of the shifter.

Jk parts costing as much as 2x the price of TJ parts. Owning a JK can be expensive.
