Default Jeeps in a parking lot

I was at a Dirtbike/Motorcycle dealership looking at bikes today and I looked out the window only to find another lifted XJ with the owner checking my jeep out. I was flattered that someone finally appreciated my XJ... Then I went back to looking at bikes and ten minutes later, another Jeep (this time a lifted TJ) pulled up next to me and the other XJ. I thought it was really funny and I showed a friend who was with me at the time. We went back to looking at helmets and jerseys only to glance out the window and find that a stock white XJ that looked exactly like mine when I got it had parked next to me too.. so then there was a line of 4 jeeps in the parking lot, I thought it was Awesome! Anyone else have this happen before?

Close, I was going to Walgreen's to get some popcorn, saw an XJ in the lot, so me and the owner started talking about XJ's, then two other Jeeps pulled in and we all started talking about how awesome Jeeps are!

Just yesterday I came out of lunch at the mall and there was a lifted xj parked next to me. I was like sweet! Mine is still mostly stock though. I always try and park next to other xjs when I go places.

Me too. This way the Jeep has a friend to talk to while I'm in the store.

My bf saw a lifted XJ at a convenience store while he was out in our ZJ. Stopped in to chat and while he was in there 2 other modded Jeeps arrived. They were with the first guy, though. LOL

Although anytime we're out in the ZJ other people in Jeeps of all types stop to look at it. We've passed other ZJs on the road and saw the men behind the wheel get that wishful, dreamy look in their eyes only to look over at their wives and be met with icy stares and un-spoken (but definite) "forget it!" LOL

x2! I always thought it was an unwritten rule that xj's gotta park next to each other

I do crap like that all the time. My build is just getting under way so I'm always checking out other rigs looking for new ideas.

We have 8 XJ's in my work parking lot every day. Only two of ours are lifted, but we are working on getting the other guys to start building theirs up

I always look an park next to another XJ. Hard to decide which lift to get. Gonna start with a 3". 4.5 and 6 is too much for my shoulder, but I like it!
