speed_racer Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 Holy hell this is the funniest thing Ive ever seen.... http://jacksonville.craigslist.org/car/376804188.html And here's my emails to him ;) Are you @#$%ing kidding me? Thats FAR from a 20" Lift. And that price isunreal. 35x12.50's on a D35/D30 combo? Let me guess? Stock gears and open diffs, too? Or did you actually pour money into a set of axles that are USELESS for that truck?! And IDK if youve looked at that shotty steering... but you should seriously reconsider. Now, while this sounds like an attack... you could use this wisely... That Jeep, that ad, the whole thing, is BAD publicity for your shop... And its really making you guys look like idiots all over the web.... Sorry to be the one to break it to you ;) And their response... :lol: Since you hide under the secret Internet shelter and neglected to leave a real name, number or otherwise, I can only guess your true name is DICK, and yes it was an attack on us. The Jeep your making all these rude comments about, has 12 patents and has had much positive publicity. It was built to sell as well as to be built on a reasonable budget. I am the owner of said company and have been working for Jeep since 1979. How long have you worked on Jeeps? Are you even old enough to drive one? Furthermore send another rude comment and I will be happy to report you to the Internet and CRAIGSLIST. Observations, comments and yes even constructive criticism would have been welcome. Mind you... my email address is keith.dutka@gmail.com Doesnt seem too hard to decipher :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockhardzj Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 My reply: I wouldn't take, or even test drive that death trap if you paid me to. Your steering needs to go back to "Steering 101", and get fixed. Those control arms, are way too weak, if it's going to do much more than be shown off in parking spot. Too much lift for stock axles, it will roll over faster than my dogs can. That tall a tire, and those stock axles, the rear axle will $#!& the bed pretty damn fast, even just pavement use. Being that it's a linked type suspension, you SHOULD have a sway bar in there, but I see none. I sure hope you know how to handle a vehicle built like complete f*cking $#!& to not roll it and kill yourself, as well as anybody retarded enough to actually get near, or in that death trap with you. I hope your pending patent gets denied, just like you should have been at birth for ever thinking up such a threat to the general public. I hope this poor poor old Jeep gets fixed by somebody with an actual brain, and I hope you find your way to jail for building a threat to society.

speed_racer Posted July 20, 2007 Author Share Posted July 20, 2007 And another set of emails Here's the responses since the last email... My response to him... Well, I would say being my EMAIL ADDRESS is Firstname.LastName... Very Clearly.. that it would be easy for you to decipher my name... So, if that makes it easier, here you go.. Keith Dutka And while my angle mightve been what it was... you obviously didnt take what you should have from it. HOws this jeep drive? Hows the death wobble? Do you understand the geometry of steering and suspension? Because I don't think you could keep that Jeep on the road above 25 mph. And working on Jeeps doesnt mean you work FOR jeep. Not to mention... our patenting system must be a little too easy... unless youve patented things like rock sliders and so forth, that basically no one with fab skills could screw up. With love, Keith Dutka ;) And his "Final" Response to me... I COuld keep tooling him around so bad... but here it is... Dear Keith Dutka, This is the other half owner and I would like it if not email us again. Your pompous, arrogant, sarcastic remarks and attitude is no way of getting anywhere in life. As far as if we understand steering and suspension geometry, who do you know that can design their own to rock crawl safety? As far as death wobble, there is no such thing with this vehicle. You can drive it with your middle finger and the acceleration is highway speeds. If you would like to see this vehicle in action, we will be at the Trucks Gone Wild Challenge in Lakeland, FL July 29th. Otherwise, please do not email us back, for I will not respond to any more negative. With Much Love, Aileena Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfpdm Posted July 22, 2007 Share Posted July 22, 2007 So if you add up all the cost of parts in this thing, what do you think, umm lets say maybe $5k which most would be for the tub. I mean most of it could be had at the junk yard. So that leaves $13900 as labor and fab work? :rotf: Dang, I thought the dealership was bad. :deal: With all that resto work you think he could of at least put in an old factory radio to fill the hole in the dash. :thwak: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
