I used to take a local BMW (straight 6) light to light when I had my XJ. He was so excited when he beat me one day, til I popped my hatch and he saw 5 33" tires weighing me down. If the second light turned green, though, he'd beat me by at least a car length to the third.

Its always fun to beat up on ricers in the xj

Blah blah when you find out your future child is a boy, and not only design a mount for a car seat right next to mommy and daddy, but suddenly safety takes priority.

Well the boy thing doesnt matter really, but making sure mom and dad are around to raise him has taken on a whole new meaning to me.

Haha that's funny cuz when I got this xj in high school my best friend who's parents had money got a brand new cobalt ss he was so proud of it till one day we did "the drag" about 1/4 mile light to light right by our house and I smoked him everytime...I use to rub it in "man I can beat you in the 1/4 mile and take the chick deep back in the trails to hang out, your car gets stuck in 3in of snow" lmao...O the good old days lol

I actually figured out the driver seat is more comfortable then sleep in the back folded down. But I didn't have any padding so then could've been why haha.

It was nice having a xj every time my parents kicked me out back in the day, slept in my baby plenty of night lol...a little padding goes a long way..I always used about 10 blankets to sleep on...the key is finding a place in the woods that's comfy for your jeep lol

Yes they are. Mine flip almost all the way back. Slept in a couple of times, while camping. And a severe thunder storm came through. I did have to go find my tent, the next morning.

Am I really the first one to post "eating a steady diet of government cheese, thrice divorced, and living in a Jeep, down by the river"?

(no offense intended to those living in a Jeep down by the river, even with a GPA of 3.76)
