Snow Driving Fun in a Jeep JL Wrangler 2 Door Sport Bone Stock and with Street Tires

[@CN-rz3ez]

As an owner of a 2dr manual sport Wrangler in the North East and in the winter, I surely enjoyed and appreciated your video. Thank you for all you do!

[@wayalife]

Awesome! We're so glad to hear it 😎

That little red jeep is fun

[@wayalife]

So glad you enjoy seeing Pippi 😎

[@DUNEATV]

Love how you’re showing the capability of a bone stock jeep. I sure do catch a lot of grief from people because I’m leaving my Rubicon stock. It gets me everywhere I want to go and a lot of places I definitely don’t need to go! 💪🏻

[@wayalife]

That's awesome and so glad to hear you enjoy our Pippi coverage 😎

[@DUNEATV]

@@wayalife It’s my favorite Jeep you own! 2dr!

[@golferpro1241]

I have a Sahara, it’s stock but I powder coated the rims…added K02’s and a winch. I have no reason to do anything else. It gets complimented all the time! It’s a 2016 Unlimited..Hydro Blue.

[@calsurflance5598]

I have heard it said that, if you can’t get there in a stock Rubicon, you don’t need to go there!👍

@@calsurflance5598 I think your right! Lol

[@powerboatguy2308]

There is a reason these vehicles have the highest resale value in North America.

That smile when you were bouncing down the trail at first. :) Priceless. Kudos to your wife for standing out in the cold filming. Great job.

I was able to drive my 2 door stock Jeep JL wrangler through 3 feet of snow about 100 feet in Saskatchewan. I have blizzaks. It was the first time I put any vehicle manually in 4WD. Lol. Best day ever!! 💓 my jeep! It had snowed heavily and I had to drive out of it. Snow everywhere. ❄️

[@wayalife]

That is awesome!

[@lindanorman2589]

How fun! Thank you for showing bone-stock. Very impressive Jeep. Why we love them.

[@frankkownacki1364]

When I got my first Jeep Wrangler in 1994 the stock tires were 205/75/15 and I went through my first Midwest winter with them. Even on those mail truck tires I never got stuck and the Jeep took on the snow like a champ. It was then that I vowed to always have a Jeep.

[@wayalife]

Awesome!

[@desertfox3860]

Fun times! Good to see Ripley having fun in the snow!

So glad that you enjoyed the video and we're always just happy to share the things we've learned over the years with others.

[@jaycrane761]

I love that you still have a bone stock Jeep that you use for a few fun trips! Plus driving a one stock Jeep in snow and on trails will help hone your driving skills and makes it better in the built beast’s you have. Well that’s how I feel about it thank you love the dog always a happy pup!

The base stock Wrangler is perfect!👌 Love the Steel wheels.( they are tougher) I would even prefer manual windows. (They are easier on the window mechanism) The original WW2 Army jeeps we’re bare bones, and they made the brand! Thanks for showing what a real Jeep can do, without $25,000 in upgrades. Nicely done!👍

I've been watching your videos for a few days now, but I am already hooked. I am grateful for the effort you both put in to bring content like this to us. Specifically, the way you focus on a stock Jeep - that is not only more widely useful, but also down to earth and charming in the sense of delighting in the small pleasures of life. Thank you, and please continue to make these lovely videos for us, specifically about Pippi!

[@wayalife]

Thank you, we're truly humbled by your kind words and so happy to hear you enjoy our videos.

[@thuff3207]

Nice snow pictures. It dose not show much here in the south but it did show 4 inches this week. They are vary good in snow if you use good sense.

[@peter12246]

Great video! I have a 2 door Sport S JL 6-speed up in Easter Canada, I have the Toyo open country C/T tires on for the winter. it’s been so much fun in the snow. When the city leaves a snow bank in front of my house I park on top of it lol

[@wayalife]

LOL - awesome. So glad you enjoyed the video.

[@Wrangzilla]

Back in the mid to late 90’s, I was stationed in Va Beach, Va. I had my 1st TJ and we got a really bad snow storm that shut the entire area down. Me and some of my shipmates decided to grab a case of beer and do donuts on the main roads. Good times. Dumb. But fun…

[@wayalife]

LOL - awesome 😁

[@GODofORCS]

That was about the same amount we just got in central illinois so much fun.

[@tharding2870]

Great video. Basic fun and Chill. 👍You know this already. As a suggestion from someone who drives in hardcore winter conditions for months at a time . . . the main threat to driving safety is not really snow . . . its ice (especially freezing rain). Lots of ice. Ice on the road. Ice on your vehicle. Ice that is formed when many vehicles compress snow down over and over as they pass by. Ice under a thin layer of water as the temperature fluctuates around the freezing point. Ice that robs you of your ability to stop safely. That's where a good set of ice radials become essential. Like Bridgestone Blizzaks or Michelin X-Ice for starters. All season tires are really just 3 season tires here in the cold and wet northeast. As you so often wisely recommend . . . being well prepared for your local conditions is always the best course for safety and peace of mind. Cheers !

[@DC-ok6bk]

Thanks for the footage of your pup playing (bounding) in the snow. Our current 2 boarders have never been in the snow, yet former ones who experienced life in the upper Midwest would hop too. Almost fox like in their approach! Oh, good 4WD content too.

[@DC-ok6bk]

One afterthought, the next time a snowstorm approaches, try throwing a few of her favorite bones out in the yard for her to hunt for. I bet she will locate them all once she gets the game.

[@wayalife]

Glad you enjoyed seeing Ripley in the snow and yes, like a fox. Thanks for the tip too!

[@kevinclevenger8741]

So much fun.glade you've got snow .hear in Indiana wear I live .we ant had any snow amounts for years

Nice to see how well that stock jeep worked in the snow. It actually looked like you were having fun on that trail. Yep, you almost had as much fun as your dog was having in the yard and that’s pretty good as far as I’m concerned. Thanks for sharing!

Another video that solidifies my decision on a stock JL. I've done some modifications but through your Pippy vids, I'm certain I made the right choice in model for the type of off roading I/we do. Thanks again for all your informative vids.

I’m going into my 3rd winter on stock tires in north east Ohio / Pittsburgh area. Plenty of highway driving in snow and ice, with most of it in 2wd. I’ve only had the back end swing out on me once going over an overpass. Only have had to use 4wd to get up hills, lots of those around. Now that I’m just about out of warranty without issues I am starting to change some things. Putting 33” KO2’s on next week with a “Rubicon lift” for my 2dr sport s. Can’t wait to see what you guys end up doing with Pippi.

[@wayalife]

Awesome!

[@utahyork3338]

Back in high school I remember learning to drive in the snow with my CJ-5. Slow on the corners to keep from spinning like a top - no traction control back then.

[@wayalife]

It's a funny thing but for me personally, that's how I prefer it. 👍

[@astro143_]

Thats exactly the kind of trail I would love to take my Jeep on. I have a Patriot right now, but I am looking at the JL. Awesome video!

Awesome! Congratulations on getting your Jeep and hope you have fun with it.

[@chriscon8463]

Looks like fun! ‘18 JLU Sport here with V6/6M trans. I’ve found the set of Michelin take-offs I got work better in the snow than my AT Wranglers. I just run those in the summer! Your dog looked like he was having as much fun in the snow as your Jeep!

[@wayalife]

They are surprisingly good tires on the slick stuff.

[@JGMan0011]

Yes, many years ago I had a set of the Michelin ATXs on a used '99 RAM 4x4 truck I got and thought they weren't aggressive enough but they proved to be awesome in the snow, so I never changed them. The new OEM JL Michelin tire tread pattern (I saw on a Sport in the dealer showroom) looked almost identical to my old Michelins to me. I ordered a JL 2dr Sport with street tires as well, and I hope it comes with Michelins vs Bridgestones, but they only tell you size when you order - who knows what brand they'll have that day when they're building my wheels? However, the Wrangler tire new-takeoff market is crazy plentiful on the internet, and the supply vs demand makes them very cheap!

[@herbertmischel3165]

Love the bone stock videos. In my case, I was doing some mountain driving where the stock tires just were not up to the task. Also legally I had to have triple peak rated tires or chains. I went with the Duratracs and they do seem to have a lot more grip. I saved my stock tires and will swap them back on when the weather gets a little warmer. Keep making these awesome stock videos!

[@wayalife]

Duratracs are great tires in the snow for sure. Glad you enjoy seeing our Pippi videos.

[@hughwolfe1176]

I’m really enjoying watching this series on Pippi. I’ve gone back and forth whether I “need” a two or four door Jeep. Right now I think the simple two door would be a good choice since I’ve never owned a Jeep. We’ve yet to discover how much snow we’ll be encountering here in Las Cruces NM as we’ve just moved here… Love the short segments on your dog. We’re about to go on a roadtrip to Louisiana to get our new Teacup Poodle. Driving all the way across Texas, it’s going to be a long trip.

Very cool! There are benefits to a 4-door but there's something so cool about a 2-door. Glad you're enjoying seeing Ripley too.

Really enjoyed the video. Also love that it’s a manual. I personally find having a manual is especially helpful in the snow in 2 wheel drive and up shifting can prevent you from losing traction and spinning tires on slick surfaces.
