That was a nasty roll. I think the question there is would you rather have an automatic or manual trans. If he didn't have that backward momentum before hitting his brakes that may never had occured. I like the manual for using the engine to slow me down going down hill, but the automatic is great on an uphill with starts and stops. One foot on the brake an one on the gas gives you a lot of control.

Owning a CJ is for manly men, they allows you to do manly stuff like auto mechanics and welding and drinking beer. Manly men own CJs. Manly men do not drive hummers, they receive them.

Please don't mention this to Jess, she will never go with me again.  I am surpirsed she is going to go to Mohalk with us.  Last time she went with me was Camp Jeep 98 and I managed to smack her head into the roll bar and almost knock her out.  If she saw this, she wouldn't let me take K.J. either, she is the responsible one in our marrage. ;D
