You don’t have to care about, or even like, Apple’s iPhone to find these behind the scenes videos interesting.
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
In all of the past videos I’ve watched, the videos simply show the crew at Incite creating the films, but this time around they talk about the non-Newtonian matter and other fun experiments they conducted.
And of course the imagery itself is trè s cool .

I hadn’t spotted that one, thanks. I wish these didn’t keep landing at Andy Mohr dealerships, though. Highway 36, what a headache.

It was part of the list I made Saturday. As for Avon, you’re better off traveling via 10th street as far out as possible instead.

Awesome... What a great job! I actually sprung, for the first time in a long time, for one of the 12 Pros, because of how great the cameras are
. Looking forward to seeing what app designers come up with for the LiDAR
sensor.

I may grab the max, but I already have last year’s so the camera’s pretty darned good.

I had an 8 for a long time (after having a 5s for a long time) that I recently gave to my son and got a cheap
Xs refurb for the short term. Now the 8 will go to my daughter and my son will get the Xs.

(3rd time I’ve tried to reply, Safari keeps crashing.)
I checked out the Westfield WJ today. Very clean, the shop clearly makes an effort, unlike the XJ I checked out at the Andy Mohr dealership. They replaced leaky gaskets in the engine, so it’s the first Jeep I’ve looked at in a month that wasn’t practically gushing oil.
The transfer case is a problem, though. Shifter was very stiff and it briefly left me stranded when it got stuck in neutral.
Anyway, if they’ll go lower on their price and clean up the issues I highlighted, there’s a very real chance I’ll buy it next week. Too steep right now .
I’m headed to Shakamak for a long cabin weekend on Wednesday, so I’ll check out the Avon WJ on my way out of town, time permitting.

Waiting until next week puts you right back at square one: nitpicking on things to the point that you lose the opportunity to actually buy anything (aka, why you lost the XJ last week). Transfer cases replacements are relatively cheap:
And for as much as you’ve spent on repairing your current Jeep, logic says you’re going to be stuck in an infinite loop.
So if you want “just right”, you’re making an offer on the one in Westfield. It will make you feel good, until something goes wrong that isn’t routine maintenance.
If you come to your senses and remember that you love and obsess over Jeeps, you know that from time to time maintenance will be needed. And you’re ok with that. So you make an offer on the one at Andy Mohr.
Sample All-in offer (including tax, title, etc.):
$4000 for Westfield Jeep
$2600 for Andy Mohr Jeep.

Oh I forgot to add that at $2600, the transfer case should be repaired before payment. Otherwise the price can go to as low as $2200.

For clarification, it’s the Westfield WJ ($5k) with the balky transfer case, or shifter. I haven’t checked out the Andy Mohr one yet.
However, both the private sale WJ and the Westfield one demonstrated similar shifter problems, so it’s certainly not unreasonable to expect Andy Mohr as well. From my research it’s a common side effect of disuse, sometimes requiring a small replacement part in the shifter, although in the Westfield case it was more than just very hard to use.

Well get on down to Andy Mohr. At least from the photos and Carfax, it's in much better shape than the private seller.
