If you dont want a mysterious popping sound in your front end dont buy a xj

If you dont like hitting your head on the liftgate in the winter dont buy a xj

If you dont like strange smells coming from the interior dont buy a xj

If your wife hates your xj push her out of it and buy another xj with the insurance money

If you don't like finding a replacement drivers side seat belt clasp, don't buy an XJ.

If you don't like having to wiggle the gearshift to get the thing to start, don't buy an automatic XJ.

If you like having a full size spare in the spare tire carrier, don't buy a cherokee or grand cherokee! (that goes for a spare you can acually use on the ZJ if you can't take it out of 4WD)
