Anyone else here drive their jeep daily? I have a 3mile commute, sun wind rain snow -15, whatever Im out in my jeep that has no top! Most people just have to scrape the ice of their windows.. if I forget to tarp my jeep, I gotta shovel out the snow!

I think the warm up time in the driveway takes longer than my commute :)

Its really the only vehical I have that runs good and is durable enough in the snow as a commute vehical.

Ive got a partially assembled motorcycle Im building
A subaru with a busted clutch and no doors (on one side!)
A 'short' international school bus

and my jeep :)

Get some great looks driving a '54 in -15 degree weather :)

I love when people ask me "what do you do in the winter?"

geee I duno my options are to walk 3 miles or drive 3 miles. Which do you think Im choosing :D

I have a 28 mile one way commute ,, Thats why when mine is done it will have a 74 Cj-5 running gear under it (3.73 gears) ,, with a 360 AMC in it ,, I plan on driving mine as much a possable ,, With a 23 gal tank should keep me going for a couple days..

By the looks of your dash from they other post you dont let any grass grow under it ,,, The keys are just a swinging,,,

I drive mine ...not everyday but about three times a week to work and to pick the kids up at school to. I cut back do to the area I park in at work. A couple of the trees are dieing and loosing limbs. I had a huge one fall in front of my jeep about a month ago. The limb was about 8 inches in diamter and 8 feet long. That would really upset me to come back to the yard and find a tree sicking out of my hood. My GMC has had limbs fall in the bed of it before in the same spot...The jeep goes to work on non windy days. I live on the Chesapeake bay and where I work is near it. We get alot of really windy days...like yesterday and today
