do people ever "touch" your xj?
i had just pulled into walmart, gf called, as i'm talkin to her sitting in a parking spot this dude walkes up to my truck, checkin it out i guess, then starts touching all over my tires and what not, needless to say i told my gf i had to go and stepped out of my jeep asked the dude wtf are you doing? he just stuttered a bit then walked away. Has anyone else had some weird stuff like this happen?

Yess! Pisses me off! I work at ace hardware and I look outside when I was working the register and see some guy feeling my tires (what is with people and man handling tires?). Then he grabs my door handle and tries to see inside!!! So I walk outside and tell him he has to buy her dinner before you can feel her like that. He laughs and I told him to leave.

I agree tire perverts should stay at home, and not touch my jeep.

Haha I didn't realize this was such a widespread issue - "jeep creepers". I get into a lot of "I used to drive a cherokee" conversations with older guys who drive JKs but to my knowledge none of them have ever tried to touch my Jeep. Maybe I should keep a closer eye on it . . .

Idk what it is, but this has happened to me on 2 occasions. Something about XJ's i guess. First time this guy was on his back completely under my bumper looking at how my tow hooks attached apparently. He got up and checked out my tires and rims also. Second time, i had to go to work right after wheeling. I am out in the parking lot getting carts at my grocery store and i look over. A little girl about 15 years old gets out, licks her finger, and writes "Clean Me" in the side. She looked at her mom, laughed historically, and walked away. I just laughed
