Here's a jeep related thread for stupid thing people say, or ask. The things that go way beyond it being a jeep thing.
I will start...
Posted an ad for my zj, in it I listed problems and issues
Including that the hatch doesn't stay open
I get a ome line email asking "what do you mean the hatch won't stay open"
How can someone not understand what that means?????

I would've invited him over, to stick his head in to find why. The hatch does stay up!

Just an idea poomwah, but you could go to the JY and get a set of hatch support struts that are good for $20 bucks (or less) and not have to explain the issue to any airheads that can't understand the problem. JMO

That would be simple.

I'm pragmatic enough to say, "You'll find out." Then let the guy get pranged in the back of the head over and over until he gets it sorted.

There are entirely too many people going about who should have escorts for their own safety, and don't. The fact that they're allowed to go about alone worries me...

Very true. But when you're selling a vehicle cheap and can easily fix a problem, instead of telling people about it and listening to/answering dumb questions, I say fix it first and avoid the idiotic inquiries. JMO

It worked out great though, I was telling my father in law about it, he likes a good laugh.
After he got done laughing, he asked if I wanted to trade for his xj

Oh yeah, more than a few times. It looked nothing like a bronco IMO.
I miss that truck.

'S funny - in Australia, there was indeed an inline six Hemi produced by ChryCo. I think it ran somewhere around 260ci, but don't hold me to it (I haven't looked at specs for the thing in a could of whiles...)
