Featured Jeep: 2000 Jeep Wrangler Sahara TJ

Morgan from Mammoth Lakes, CA: “I love how I can get to these incredible places with my Jeep without any trouble at all!“

Gorgeous! -JW

Featured Jeep: 2013 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon

From Andrew in Sacramento, CA:

“This is my first Jeep and WOW. This trip to Winnemucca for a Chukar hunt was my opportunity to really see what it could do. My Rubicon effortlessly tread up anything I stuck in front of it. Whether the trail was icy, rocky or muddy – it just didn’t matter. Where the other vehicles in my group had to stop I just kept on going. I guess my favorite thing was the sense of freedom that comes with the ability to go anywhere on the mountain. Can’t wait for next year!!“

Congrats on the new Jeep! Winnemucca (wherever the heck that is) looks beautiful and I hope you you shot lots of Chukars (whatever the heck they are)!  – JW

New Product Alert! The Trek Light Go Anywhere Hammock.

“Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.”

-Ferris Bueller c.1986

So Ferris Bueller’s Day Off was on TV last night (again) and of course I had to watch it (again). It was hilarious as usual, but when we got to the part with the famous quote listed above, I came to a certain realization.  How is it Mid-August already? I’d better slow this Summer down in a hurry!

That’s where our newest and one of the most fun products we’ve ever carried comes in; The Trek Light Go Anywhere Hammock . Sharing the same love of the outdoors and go anywhere spirit as Jeep, this awesome and affordable hammock is a great way to squeeze a little more fun out of your time in the wilderness and will help you slow life down just a little bit.

Measuring at a HUGE 6’5″ wide and holding up to 400lbs., the Trek Light Double Hammock (combined with the Go Anywhere Rope Kit) easily ties up between two Jeeps, between your Jeep’s Rollbar and a nearby tree, or even between two trees at your campsite. The entire system compress into an included carrying pouch and weighs in at a super light 20 ounces, so there is no need to worry about it taking up too much space in your Jeep or backpack. It also makes a great gift for the Jeeper, Hiker, Hunter or Outdoorsman in your life!

Interesting choice of campsites, fellas…

Is your Jeep ready for Winter?

It’s that time of year again!  Whether we like it or not, Winter is on the way.  Is your Jeep ready for all the foul (or wonderful, depending on your perspective) weather that’s headed your way?  There are a couple of must-have’s for your Jeep in regards to protecting your vehicle’s interior from all the snow, slush, water, salt, and sand that our roads and parking lots can send its way.  Start off with the all-weather Jeep Floor Mats .  With great options from Mopar, Weathertech, and Rugged Ridge, www.JeepWorld.com has your Jeep’s Floors covered.  See this list below for mats to fit your model Jeep vehicle:

Jeep Wrangler Floor Mats, Grand Cherokee Floor Mats, Jeep Liberty Floor Mats, Compass Floor Mats, Jeep Patriot Floor Mats, Commander Floor Mats, and even Jeep Cherokee XJ Floor Mats are a great way to protect your vehicle’s interior and extend the life of your Jeep!

Another must for interior protection is the Jeep Cargo Tray.  An awesome way to protect your Jeep’s cargo area, these heavy duty trays are a must for anyone who lives in a Winter Weather Climate and enjoys an outdoors lifestyle.  Available for the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Liberty, Commander, Compass & Patriot, and Wrangler.  An extra-thick and rugged Cargo Tray by Weathertech is available for the Cherokee XJ, if you’ve still got one of those bad boys on the road.

For those of us who think Winter is wonderful (count me in as one of those fools), we’ve got a full line up of Jeep Ski and Snowboard Racks to fit your vehicle and help you transport your skis and snowboards to the mountains.  We happily offer both roof-mount and spare tire mount options as rack solutions for your Jeep.

Either way, humans weren’t made to hibernate all Winter.  Let www.JeepWorld.com, your online source for Jeep Accessories, help you get out there and have fun!

Featured Jeep: 2004 Jeep Wrangler (TJ)

From Karen in Parts Unknown:

“This is my 04 Jeep Wrangler, I love this jeep! Its so much fun, in the sun, in the rain, or the mud, it goes where ever I want. Can’t wait for summer so I can go topless!”

This entry brought to you by www.JeepWorld.com; your online source for Jeep Parts and Accessories!  From Jeep Floor Mats to Jeep Tire Covers, we’ve got what your Jeep needs!  We also carry a huge line-up of Thule Racks to help you carry skis, snowboards, kayaks, canoes, bikes, and luggage carriers for your Jeeps!

A “Jeep” with Pricing That STARTS at $80,000?

From the New York Times:

“…the CJ3B is the realized dream of Jonathan Ward, the 40-year-old owner of Icon and a transplanted New Yorker who propagates bespoke S.U.V.’s from his Los Angeles atelier. The goal of Icon, he says, is to ‘revisit vehicles from our collective past that make us smile in a modern context.’ ”

“The Icon CJ3B will start around $80,000. While that luxury-car price tag may seem high for a vehicle that lacks even a head unit for an audio system, Mr. Ward does not need a large market: only about 60 FJs have been sold so far. And in any case, the price is beside the point for the customers he envisions. These would be idealists and design purists like himself who, when making any acquisition, seek out the finest.”

“All of the modern components make the Icon a more reliable, repairable vehicle than any restoration of a 50-year-old could be — and a more usable off-roader than a straight replica of the original Willys would be. Gone are trouble spots from the original design like the leaf springs (which can limit the wheel travel needed to negotiate rough terrain), a balky choke cable (electronic fuel injection assures quick starting) and weak drum brakes (there are discs at all four corners).

Still, a list of improvements does not reveal the whole story. That lies in the telling of how those bits and pieces were chosen and procured, which is a direct reflection of Mr. Ward’s character — or, some would say, his obsession for perfection in all details.”
