I know everyone's heard this one, but happened last night:
YKYDAXJW your girlfriend of 2 1/2 years almost breaks up with you over an XJ you've had for 3 weeks. -.- haha.
The sad part was that she was jealous of it.. Oh well.

Could've be worse, though. My buddy lost his right rear at 130 in his BMW when we were in Germany, and I bet your Jeep is looking a lot better than his car did.

Some guy was doing the tuff truck competition this year in a grand Cherokee and at the end of his run his axle and wheel went one way and he went the other. He drove at least 200 yard before someone flagged him down that something was missing. He didn't even realize he lost anything

I used to own a '78 international scout, that happened to me on the highway! Right after I had picked it up. The wheel crossed 3 lanes of traffic a jersey wall then 4 lanes of traffic on the opposing traffic side and some how missed every single vehicle on the road. I was able to pull over quickly and safely. Thank god! That was scary! The p.o. put the lugs on backwards.
