And my favorite:
::walk into auto parts store, and tell them, "I need such and such a part for a '99 Jeep Cherokee, 4 wheel drive, 4.0 inline 6." Their response, "Grand Cherokee or regular?" Did I SAY grand at any point?::

I said, "Yep. I'm one of those guys with dents and holes in his rocker panels cause it isn't lifted yet...but that'll be fixed soon, and you'll still be a *****."

Sweet mall crawler.....
When you gonna grow up, sell that thing and get something with decent mileage?
Wash it, it's so dirty.
Whats the point in lifting it and putting bigger tires on it?
Or my personal favorite that typically makes me want to punch whoever happens to say it to me is "why do you waste your time and money on that beat up rusty old jeep?"

I drove 2 hours one time to look at a "2000 jeep cherokee" on craigslist, called the lady, texted her before i left just to make sure it was cherokee not a grand cherokee and she swore up and down it was just a cherokee not a grand cherokee. Got there and it was a grand cherokee so i just kept driving.
