...Jeep, people would not continue to purchase them. Jeeps have been the backbone of America since they were first made. Jeeps have evolved in so many ways from the past to the present and are continuing to evolve into the future. The Cj’s series started back in the 40s, but the one Jeep covered in this paper will be the Cj-7. The Cj-7 came about in 1976 and roughly 379,000 were produced. This was the start of the Jeep that the public could actually use because it had better drivability and more space. The Cj-7 was just like the Cj-5 except the Cj-7 was extended to give more space. The drivability was improved by the addition of anti-swat bars. Another addition to the Cj-7 was a steering stabilizer allowing the Jeep to have a less probability to go into the death wobble. The death wobble is where the front tires whip back and forth making the driver lose control. Another option was the Quadra-Trac, which was an automatic four-wheel drive system. With this type of four-wheel drive system, it allowed for an automatic transmission. This was another way the Cj-7 was made to be more of a civilian vehicle. There were many different types of packages that the Cj-7 came in. The 3 packages were the Renegade, Laredo, and Golden Eagle. The packages included different options including chrome packages, different four-wheel drive systems, and different engines. There were even options of locking differentials and a winch. The engines offered was the 232 inline six and the 304 V8...

...Marie Foraker Best Vehicle for surviving a zombie crisis Jeanette Burghardt September 21, 2012 The Jeep Wrangler is the best vehicle for surviving a zombie attack because the Wrangler can go off road and the vehicle is small. The Jeep Wrangler is easy for zombie swerving and getting around cars on the roads. The Jeep Wrangler is also cheap, fun to drive and go-anywhere capability. This vehicle would be the perfect car for a zombie crisis. The Jeep Wrangler is the best car because this vehicle can go off road. Which means that this car can go through forest, rocks, snow mountains, mud and fields. Having this advantage makes it easy so to zombie swerving on the roads. The jeep Wrangler can go 70 to 75 miles per hour on the road but the disadvantage to this vehicle is taking this car off the road can only do a speed of 40 to 45 miles per hour. This car can seat about 5 people so means if there are any survivors I can take them. The Wrangler can be custom built. People can buy front-end bars to go cross the front, make the ground clearance higher and bigger tires for ground clearance. In conclusion the Jeep Wrangler is the best vehicle for surviving a zombie attack because the Wrangler can go off road and this vehicle is small. The Jeep is also fin to drive, cheap and has an any-where capability. This vehicle would be the perfect vehicle for the zombie attack. This car can be custom built, people can buy certain things for the...

...Well here is the story of a few jeeps... In the short time between school, homework, and Target, my free time is most enjoyed off-road in my Jeep. Chandler, Clayton, and the bass pond will keep me occupied for years to come. As long as I have a Jeep I will continue my quest to explore more trails such as The Rubicon, or Moab. The first Jeep I purchased was a 1986 Cherokee Laredo. At the time the four-wheel drive didn’t work and I didn’t care much. Weeks later I could be found cutting through the occasional field or going through a little mud. I soon learned the need for four wheel drive after a few scary situations last summer. It was about 1 A.M. and I was driving in a ditch with slippery grass from morning dew. In the ditch there was a tall grassy hill that I was thinking about driving up. With a little encouragement from my friend, I charged up the hill and as I reached the crest, my tires started slipping, as did obscenities. We slowly descended backwards down the hill, because the brakes weren’t doing their job. The pace picked up, and fear and uncertainty were riding shotgun as we turned 90 degrees on the hill. I thought a roll was inevitable as we were sliding sideways, so I hit the throttle and we slid around and then the Jeep were facing the bottom of the hill. A few weeks later I got the four wheel drive working, and since then I’ve put my passengers through more fear and fun. Ignorance and adrenalin had got me high centered in the cold raining boonies, up to my...

...Hick Day A slight drizzle was falling from the sky as my huge knobby tires slingshot baseball size chunks of mud over twenty feet in the air. It was now October and the day I had been waiting for a long time had finally arrived; it was hick day. This is the one day out of the year I get to show my true colors to the school, because I am only one out of a handful of real hicks at Bob Jones High School. Now, because of my four past accidents that were all linked directly to mud riding, I had sworn to my parents that I would never put my Jeep Wrangler back in the mud. However, what would just one last time hurt? “This was it”, I told myself, “this is the final time I will go off-road in my Jeep and after this I will fully respect what my father and mother worked so hard to get me.” My near death wreck that almost took four of my friends lives and my life in the blink of an eye completely turned my life around, I now cherish and respect everything that I am granted. To begin with it was 7:30 in the morning and I had just finished making my rounds picking up all my friends for school. My buddy Caleb and I were in the front and we had been planning this day for months. He and I went all out dressing up for hick day. We both wore full camouflage attires from head to toe. I even had on my enormously thick camo hunting boots; they were so thick I could not even feel the gas or brake pedal through them. In the rear of my Jeep were three girls all crammed together in that tiny, two...

...Experimental Research investigation: Theory, heat causes metal to return to its original shape. Test subject: A 1970 Jeep CJ5 (civilian Jeep) series that has a dent in the right rear side panel. I have conducted experimental research on the properties of metal to determine the best process to use to remove the dent and return the metal to its pre accident appearance, safety, and functionality. Type of informal research conducted: Cause and effect (metallurgical reactions using heat versus cold straightening). To conduct our research I started by collecting data on the type of metal used to form the side panel of the Jeep CJ5 . Through research we found that the metal was “common carbon steel” which originally was “stamped” by the manufacturer. Through our research we found that the carbon steel used in 1970 had a low percentage of carbon which allows the metal to be malleable and easy to manipulate. We started our experiment on a test subject piece of flat carbon steel which mimicked the properties of our subject CJ5. To change the shape of the test subject metal we introduced harm to the metal by hammering the surface. This form of experimental manipulation allowed us to produce a test subject that was chemically similar to our controlled subject. First, we used heat on the test metal to soften it. This type of manipulation is called Annealing and causes the molecules in the metal to change form therefore changing the properties of the metal. The effect of our experiment...

...Riverside Casino and Golf Resort / Stacy Benson Topic Title Performance Reviews NO. This title won’t work. What about performance reviews? If you were doing a simple research paper you could write about performance reviews based on research alone. In this Sr Paper you must determine the state of the art based on your Literature Review. Then you will give the background of the problem and discuss it. This must all lead to two Courses of Action (COAs; solutions) that are tied to your title and problem. You need a “product” such as a process, a plan, a strategy, a program – something that can be recommended and implemented. Problem Statement (if not finalized post a draft – focus on the "pain.") The problem is that after initial training employees are not being reviewed for current performance. Suggest that after this initial statement you add something more about the problem. Brief Topic Overview The casino is experiencing a high turnover rate of employees because after their initial training they are put on the floor without any further review. In the handbook employees are supposed to have a review after 90 days but they are not being implemented. This leaves the casino with under qualified employees that eventually terminate their employment due to not feeling able to meet the high demands. The solution to this problem, if it is the problem, is simple. Just IMPLEMENT PERFORMANCE REVIEWS. You can see...

...Peer Evaluation for MKT 420 Your Name: KYRIA AHO Fill in the blanks for each team member (but not yourself) as if you were writing an evaluation or recommendation for that person. ONLY ONE TEAM MEMBER MAY BE RECOMMENDED FOR PROMOTION. Consider if you were assigned to another team, which team member you would want to be your boss. Consider who you’d like to work with again.

...Butterfly leaked just 24 hours before its official release date, March 15, and that most major music websites published their reviews of the album within three days of the leak. On such an immediate deadline for filing a feature-length album review, it’s nearly impossible for a young critic to stunt. At Jezebel, Clover Hope just wrote the truth. With bits of personal and political context interspersed, Hope framed her review as a first-take impression of the “overwhelming blackness” of an album about funk and self-destruction. “This initial feeling is suffocating,” Hope wrote. “It’s the essence of Dis Tew Much.” I think most fans and critics would agree that Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly is, indeed, overwhelming. I reviewed To Pimp a Butterfly in about 72 hours. In that narrow band of time, I "got" the album's messages and themes but couldn’t grasp the motivations for the album’s sound. Why, in. You’ll recall that To Pimp a Butterfly leaked just 24 hours before its official release date, March 15, and that most major music websites published their reviews of the album within three days of the leak.
