Hello ModernJeepers, welcome to Episode Number 20 of The ModernJeeper Show… the show about Jeeps, Jeeping and Jeepers.

This week is another special Flashback Episode. Back when ModernJeeper was just a nascent website and the idea of a podcast was just a whim, Matson interviewed several industry leaders while at the 2015 Off Road Expo in Pomona, California.

Each interview was about 30 minutes long, and was conducted from a table at Metalcloak’s 20 x 30 booth right in the middle of the show and you can clearly hear all the action going on around us.

In this Flashback Episode, Matson is joined by his good friend Jim McGinn, the Vice President of Marketing for Powerteq / SuperChips. SuperChips is a Metalcloak partner and at the time, was a named sponsor of the #CTITour2015.

Jim talks about the influence marketing has on the Superchips interface, why hacking the Jeep is easier then asking for Manufacturer support, how Superchips got recruited into the Jeep market, what makes Superchips stand out, why Superchips installation won’t affect your warranty, Superchips Land Use support, what products at Off Road Expo caught Jim’s eye, and the answer to our favorite question of the day… “finish this sentence… Metalcoak Is…”

You can find helpful links to many of the things we talk about in this episode below.
