Be Sun-Conscious In Your Jeep

You know what many people like best about their Jeep with a soft top? It's like getting two cars in one. When you need cover and protection from the elements, you got it with the soft top and when you want to enjoy a warm, sunny day in your Jeep - you just take off the soft top and enjoy the ride and let the wind blow through your hair.

When you're riding with the cover off your Jeep, be sure and take the same precautions for exposure to the sun as you for a trip to the lake or beach. First of all, use sunscreen. The ultraviolet rays of the sun can do silent damage to your skin and the UV rays still come through to your skin even on a cloudy day. Many sunscreen blocks have up to 98% UV ray protection. If you're going to be riding around for a long day in your Jeep - use the maximum sunscreen and apply often.

Next wear light colored clothing as it actually reflects back the heat. You'll stay cooler and enjoy the ride more if you're not overheating. Bring along water if you're not going to be in a place where it is easily accessible. Staying hydrated is a must throughout the year but especially during the warmer months.
A towel on the seat is a great idea too!

Last but not least, protect your eyes. Sunglasses not only look cool but if you wear a pair with UV ray protection; you'll go a long way to protecting your eyes from cataracts and macular degeneration.

Make these tips part of your next outdoor ride in your Jeep and you'll skin and eyes will thank you for it!

Start Planning Roadtrips With the Kids!

Today was Groundhog Day and in true form, the groundhog appeared today and saw his shadow - which portends six more weeks of winter weather. However, it's not too early to start planning road trips and if you have kids, make the ride even more fun by adding some cool accessories to your Jeep Compass.

Jeeps are dependable, rugged and will get you from any point A to point B with ease that is unmatched; this is one of the reason Jeep owners are so loyal to the brand. Now Jeep has come out with an entire line of accessories that make the ride sheer luxury.

When warm weather arrives, take off for the beach with your family. Another cool idea is to plan a camping trip and you can even get a jeep tent that will hook up to the back of your vehicle and enable your kids to watch a DVD or play a video game after dark.

Many parents pack a travel pack for their kids so they don't have to keep stopping for snacks along the way. Pack some sandwiches, low mess fruits such as apples, bananas or pears and veggies such as carrots all make great munching that is also healthy. Pack plenty of water and/or juices for the kids. This will keep their energy up and is a far better idea than trapping yourself in a vehicle with kids that get sugared up candy and cookies and then are bouncing off the walls of the Jeep for most of the road trip and then crashing when you finally arrive.

Traveling with kids can be a learning experience for your kids and you can make the getting there part even more enjoyable by planning ahead to keep your kids busy for the ride and that way you won't have to keep answering the ages old question of , "Are we there yet?".

Before camping season arrives, make sure that you have the right equipment to be safe and sound on a camping trip. Good camping starts with a good shelter - make sure you have a good tent set up.

Think Ahead to Those Jeep Road Trips in the Spring!

It's hard to remember when you're looking at ice and snow on the ground, but spring isn't that far away and along with thinking about what you want to put in your garden this year, start considering ways to spruce up your Jeep for spring to get the most out of your road trips.

One thing most Jeep owners have in common is that they enjoy getting out in the great outdoors as often as possible. A great addition to your Jeep would be a bike rack so you and your favorite traveling buddy can grab your bikes and go explore new areas that even your Jeep can't reach.

Add some front air and side air reflectors to make your Jeep even more aerodynamic. You'll notice a lot less "drag" happening when you're driving just with these additions. Tubular bumpers not only add a rugged look to your Jeep, they also do a great job of protecting the grille on your vehicle. Speaking of grilles, if you're tired of looking at the factory issued black grille on your Jeep Wrangler, swap it out for a shiny new chrome grille.

A cab cover is another addition that you'll find a lot of use for. The weather-resistant high quality nylon cap in Black or Silver fits snugly over your Jeep's hard or soft top. Silver color is a sun reflective material that reduces interior temperatures and sun fading. Great for sunny climates. Also will fit with top off to help keep interior clean and dry. Elastic loops attach around taillights and mirrors, and includes two integrated cords that attach to the Jeep to secure the cover under the door area. Folds into a small snap closure bag that is included for easy storage.

And those are just a few ideas for making your Jeep look even better for 2007.

'Tis the Season for Muddy Carpets...

You want your Jeep to stay looking nice and do your best to upkeep the interior as well as the exterior, however there is one thing you can't avoid. Winter slush. When snow meets dirt and it gets on your shoes or boots and then melts in the warmth of your Jeep; you get muddy slush and if you're not careful you'll soon have stained interior carpeting.

Most Jeep owners are the kind of people who like to get out and take advantage of everything that Mother Nature has to offer. This will mean heading out for road trips all year long and even braving the elements when the cold and bitter winter weather strikes. While you might have no problem at all when cutting through the snow and ice with your Jeep, you might find it to be a bit difficult trying to keep this mess from coming inside on your feet!

When you are looking to protect the carpets on the floor of your Jeep, help is just as easy as laying down a set of slush-style floor mats. These great floor mats are just the thing that you need in order to hold all of the mess in one place without it being able to escape and stain your carpeting. The floor mats are made from durable material with deep grooves that are just right for keeping your carpet clean all year long. You can even order the slush-style floor mats in either dark taupe or dark slate to match your Jeep's interior.

Keep the slush out of the carpeting of your Jeep, invest in a set of mats and your interior will stay looking new - despite all the winters you take your Jeep through.

Plan a Romantic Getaway - Yes YOU!

The holiday season is about to swing into high gear soon and you're not going to feel like you have much time for yourself much less your partner - before that happens - take the time for a romantic getaway.

Plan on packing the kids off to your parent's house for the weekend and start putting together a fun getaway for just the two of you. Establish some ground rules for the two of you. No discussions of anything to do with work, no worrying about what the kids are doing, cell phones can go along but they are to be in the "silent" mode until you're back home. That way you can see if anyone needs to reach you from back home and ignore any calls from the office.

Next, plan where you're going. It's best if you get out of the house. It may seem like a vacation just having the house to yourselves again with the kids gone, but it's also important to get away yourselves and enjoy a new environment. This time of year, you can usually find good deals on vacation rentals as the snowbird traveling season hasn't heated up in most areas and it's considered a "down" time for most vacation rentals.

Get a cozy cabin and you can both curl up by the fire at night. You can make this even better by bringing some of your favorite bottles of wine, some light snacks such as a loaf of crusty bread, crackers and cheese,just put them in a cooler in case there isn't a working fridge when you get to the cabin. Candles can set a wonderful mood for romance or you can choose to use hurricane lanterns and turn them down to a cozy light level. Pack away all that you need in an easy to carry bag and keep your trip as light as possible.

Just getting back to the basics can breathe new life into a relationship that was feeling a little stale due to the fact you and your sweetheart simply never get a moment of time for yourselves. Don't talk about anything too deep,forget you have jobs and leave your stress factors at home; just enjoy the time you're spending together and you'll find you will reclaim those feelings of love you thought you lost.

This is a great way to reclaim your relationship. It's easy to lose touch but a great weekend together can definitely stoke the fires to burn strong again. Start planning your getaway today!

Cold Weather is Coming - Are You Prepared in Case You're Stranded?

It doesn't matter if you have the newest model Wrangler or a Jeep that is years and years old. You can get stranded and while you're waiting for help, during the colder months it's essential that you have items available to keep yourself and your family or traveling companions warm until you can get out of the situation.

First of all, put together your own little kit and keep it in your Jeep at all times. Put a few thermal blankets, an LED lantern that runs on batteries not fuel, jumper cables, a basic tool kit, band aids, duct tape, electrical tape, a heavy duty tow strap, road side flairs, a "Help Call Police" sign for your windshield another type of sign that gets a quick response from passing motorists is "Children Inside - Call Police", portable warmers (like hunters and military personnel use) and some people even pick up MRE's (military ready to eat meals) and put them in their Jeep-just in case. The MRE's have a shelf life of years so you can toss a few in your kit and forget about them, additionally many MRE's have a self heating feature so you can warm your insides while you're waiting for help.

In the event you are stranded and you are unable to get a signal on your cell phone, you may wind up spending the night in a cold and dark place. Also make sure a crank battery is part of your kit. You can recharge a cellphone, power lights and other items, even if your battery is dead. Just a few turns of the crank and you've generated electricity.

If you're traveling with kids, they will feel a lot better if you have a lantern handy and everyone can cuddle up with extra blankets. If there is a chance of traffic on the road you're on - put up the sign in your windshield and you can use a roadside flair to make sure your vehicle is visible to any traffic passing by. You can stay warm by popping open the warmers and given one to each child. The warmers work by creating a chemical reaction that will generate heat for roughly two hours. They are available in most military and outdoor supply stores. When you're stocking your roadside kit - stock enough for an overnight stay for at least 3-4 people so you have enough to keep everyone warm throughout the night if you may be stranded that long.

There are a lot of things you can do to prepare for the unexpected. Your Jeep was built to handle the most extreme of conditions, however there may come a situation where are you stranded for a while and it's for those times you need to be prepared so you can get through being stranded in safety and a minimum of stress.

A great way to spend a weekend with your family is to bring along the tailgate attaching tent, your Jeep bicycles and find a remote place in the woods to go camping. Forget the crowded campgrounds and find a place where your family can camp in quiet, peaceful solitude. Many national forests and state managed lands have campsites scattered around many areas of the forest and some are remote enough that unless you have the 4-wheel drive power of a Jeep, you won't be able to make to the campsite.

You don't need a lot to go camping. Just your tent, light sources such as a couple of LED lanterns, food that is stored in a couple of coolers, water, personal toiletries and materials for a contained fire to gather around at night. You can spend a fun weekend camping and get away from the hassles of everyday life, the yard work, cell phones, extra-curricular activities and stresses from your work life can all be placed on hold as you enjoy rediscovering spending time with your family. http://store.yahoo.com/yhst-83673118800219/trgunasy.html">A trail guide is a very handy gadget to along as you explore. It can actually show you where you are on the trail and what to expect.

Let your Jeep show you what it can really do and the next weekend outing you plan for your family - make it a wilderness adventure that everyone will enjoy and when you get lost, it will be on purpose!
