Video with new Jeep?
 
I just purchased my first new jeep and I had heard that there was supposed to be some type of DVD owner's video to go along with a new jeep. I didn't get one and was just wondering if that rumor was simply that.... a rumor. Figured you guys would know if I needed to go back to my dealer and ask the question...:dontknow2:
Thanks

You did not miss anything. Some like taking top up and down are on Youtube.

My 07 JKU came with a regular printed owners manual. My 10 JKU came with the DVD and a "quick start guide" pamphlet (covering the very basics) -- no printed owners manual.

The DVD probably has 20-30 little video tutorials on it, and a PDF copy of the owners manual.

As far as I know, you can find all the videos and tutorials on the Jeep website and on YouTube.

Be wise in choosing which YouTube videos to watch, though. You don't want to watch an 8 minute video of two dingbats showing you how to open the glove compartment.

I've seen that one.

My 2009 came with the video and the manual
 
The video is pretty much a wasted effort and the manual is so voluminous that it is far easier to just key word search the PDF version you can download for free.

Thanks for the insight! I did receive the printed manual and I have seen one or two vids at Jeep.com This forum is more useful than all those resources combined! Thanks all! :thumbsup:

My dealer told me that the owner's manual was on dvd for 2010. As I was about to leave the lot with my new Jeep, he came running out and said that he was wrong and handed me the "book" owner's manual. I did not get a dvd.
