Old Jeeps were notorious for poor heaters. The heaters in my 2014 Rubicon and 2018 Cherokee are capable of smelting iron ore. Five minutes of warm up with the defrosters on high will pretty much clear any snow and ice on the windows (and on the ragtop Rubicon, will usually melt any snow on the roof).

There is a Mayhem Commercial that covers that.

Give him a break. Looks like New Jersey plates on the car. And you know what that means. Well, more often than not it seems. :)

I moved from Texas to Georgia, where a front license plate is not required. So I left my front Texas plate on while sporting a Georgia plate on the back. Visiting New Jersey got me some strange looks.

In most cases it probably had nothing to do with the different plates. NJ is a strange place. Strange people tend to look at people strangely.

(only half joking) New York, where I am, is even more strange. But in a different sort of way.

Growing up in The Burgh, the saying was “Don’t be a peephole driver”.

I still have my king size ice scraper / brush, hasn’t been used in many years.
