Hey Guys my name is Dru and I live in Toronto, Canada. I just picked up a 2004 Renegade after my 2008 Wrangler Unlimited went up in flames. I got nothing back from insurance since the 09 were dirt cheap so I desided to check out the Renegade, which I have always liked. But was way to expensive in 07 used ones were still going for 18,000 CDN with over 100,000 KM. So I ended up with a new JK big mistake. I've included Some pics Of my Old JK my New KJ and My weekend Warrior a 2000 Ford Focus Turbo.

Welcome Dru.....Rennegades are nice.

Your JK was nice too, what happened, was it an electrical fire or something?

Ouch--I don't know what I would do if my KJ ever burned... The Focus is nice, but it's a bit too...well, I'm not very fond of Fords xD But welcome to the forums anyway, and please do give details on the JK!

And I have to say....i'm not generally a fan of tricked out and lowered cars( I really can't stand the imports...but thats a whole 'nother topic)....but I really do like your Focus....looks great!

Sorry to hear about your JK. The upside is that now you have a fun new toy to work on and judging by your Focus you like to put some mods on your vehicles. I am interested to see how your KJ turns out.

P.S. got any specs on that Focus? HP, torque, 0-60?

As for the JK I was cruzing around on a snowy night desided to stopped in for some food with a couple of buddies so I parked it at bascally empty parking lot. Came back to the parking lot and saw the Police blocking off the entrance I saw the back end of my Jeep and a fire truck near it. So I told the Cop that was my truck and he told me it was messed up, he called the Fire Chief over and he told me that it had an Electrical Fire No exact cause. He said that he had heard about these newer Jeeps going up in flames like this before. Other than my Jeep a few boards to a fence were damaged but no other vehicles and no injuries.

As for the Focus That side pipe Is actually one of my exhaust's I have an electrical cutout that switches the exhaust from full to the dump. I usally Drag Race it but since I have gone with my new custom turbo set up I have had a lot of problem with it. I made 336 whp with just over 300 Torque, it has alot more in it but I need to work out the kinks fastest Ive gone in testing is 13.1's and that's shutting off at the 1000 foot mark.

Plans for the Renegade well I have a couple I do like customizing my vehicles as you can tell by the focus but only till there completly paid off or warranty is up. So when I need a new set of tires I'll go with a nice beefy set and rims with a 2.5 lift and possibly some side steps so the g/f can climb in. I have already ordered sluch mats and tail light guards to start. I am also shopping around for a trailer hitch and a roof rack that will hold snowboards. What do I need to add to the Renegade roof rack to fit a ski/snowboard rack.
