Military Jeep J8

Before Jeep became the legendary off-road brand that it is today, it got its start by producing vehicles for the military. The original Jeep (the Willys MB) served its tour in WWII and other battles, and from there, as they say, the rest is history. After being absent from military duty for years, Chrysler LLC has just announced a new military Jeep based on the Wrangler called the J8.

The J8 will be available in two body styles, a four-door, as well as a two-door version with an extended wheelbase. The latter was previewed earlier this year by the JT pickup truck concept vehicle, which will also be shown at this year’s SEMA show this fall. It’s not just a standard Wrangler, though, as Jeep has significantly re-engineered the frame. While the J8 wasn’t intended to do patrol routes, instead it’s supposed to be an ambulance, troop transporter and communications vehicle. It can be ordered with armour plating. In addition, the J8 can be transported by air or helicopter thanks to its heavy duty bumpers with hooks.

I currently am having body parts for semitrucks manufactured here in the US but it just costs too much. I know I can have them manufactured in China or elsewhere overseas and have them shipped to me for half the cost. Does anyone have experience in this?

Hatchback vs. Sedan: A Lifestyle choice?

August 4, 2010 | Category: Auto Dashboard Parts | 2 Comments

Car collectors will sometimes look for specific auto parts when buying a car and those parts are the underlying factor with their decision. For instance, if a customer is looking for a Garrett T3 Turbocharger they will soon find that they are bombarded with a bunch of decisions. For example, both the Subaru Turbocharger for the WRX and the Volkswagen Turbocharger for the GTI are Garrett T3 turbochargers. However, the Subaru WRX is a sedan and the GTI is a hatchback… Most car owners prefer specific style of vehicle and tend to stay with that design. However, some people are torn between the two.

The hatchback vehicle is considered a smaller station wagon. Typically, when you think of a station wagon one will think of a soccer mom driving her kids to school with a fully packed car. However, hatchback lovers think differently. Very popular in places like Europe, the hatchback is admired for its MPG, handling, storage space, ease of parking, and sporty looks.

The Sedan style vehicle is way more popular in the US than the hatchback. Sedans have 4 doors and are ideal for passenger comfort. Sedans can also be a bit more expensive than hatchbacks because of the longer body and backseat features for passengers. Although comfortable, many car collectors or racers in the US will still prefer a hatchback over a sedan because the hatchback is bringing something different to the table.

Ultimately, the decision between a hatchback and a sedan comes down to many variables. Some people even consider it a “lifestyle choice.” Personal preference for one of the two can be because of price, interior, storage, popularity, handling, MPG, comfort and so on. Hatchbacks can be great for their storage size, but at the same time, you can’t beat the Sedan’s comfort. The choice is in your hands.
