You know you drive an XJ when you and ur buddies are wheelin in your rig and they look off to the tiny side trails and say "thats a jeep trail" because they're a bunch of pansies and are afraid to scratch their paint...

You know you drive an XJ when you're being tailed by park rangers, they get stuck in a hole trying to catch up to you, and you turn around and pull him out.....

The ranger wound up being a pretty cool dude. He was driving a little liberty(stock of course) and got hung up in some 35" ruts(hahaha).

You know you drive an XJ when your neighbor offers to pay for a car wash so that his "soon to be" in-laws wouldnt have to see your mud covered truck when they pull up to his house.

YKYDAXJ when your idea of shoveling is driving up and down her side of the driveway repeatedly so your wife can get her car out!
YKYDAXJ when there is no question which vehicle we will be driving when we go out!

When you're running down to the lake to grill out and get questioned by wrongler owners why you chose a Cherokee and you tell them your reasons with pride

If that is "Trail Rated" then a mountain bike is just as great! It's more like puddle rated! U seen one try to drive in a foot of snow? I thought the half shafts would snap!

Hmmm! Gotta see it in action. The small wheel base is the problem. It looks shorter than the wrangler.

Wrong. Th liberty wheelbase is almost a foot longer.
last time I checked th liberty came with a Turbo diesel, wranglers do not. Ever seen a liberty with like a 2" lift and 31's? They look pretty dang sweet I have to say.
