People and their subarus, especially the WRX..lol We always working on our jeeps because we abuse them and they take it. **** wears out over time and every damn thing on a jeep xj is easy to fix(for the most part, there are those timess.
) You want to know how much a clutch costs to do in a WRX? $1,200 and good luck finding any shop to do it LOL! The dealership charges way more.
Co-worker: Look at that jeep compass!!!! (2010 jeep compass)
me: That's not a jeep, that's I turd I drove over in the parking lot because they had jeep badges on it. You can stick polish a turd, but it's still a turd.
(2010 jeep compass: 2 wheel drive, plastic body, 2.4L 4 banger, indepedent suspenion, no torque, and had check engine light on..LMAO.)
Maybe I should buy a prius slap a BMW badge on it and try to re-sell it.. I'm sure I could fool a lot of people. "Yes, this is BMW's new hybrid crapsicle technology, did I mention it says BMW?"

had to many issue and rather spend my time fixing my easier to work on jeep... I've always owned jeep so bare with me when I say this, no joking now!! It took my 5 and half hours to do spark plugs on that trans am.... And everybody who owns a third gen will agree that (even though I took a long time for first attempt) it is no walk in the park; them things are damn hard to get too!

Does this qualify as an oxymoron? lol. If they took it that well you wouldn't have to work on it all the time. Durability and the need for constant wrenching don't go together.
The guy at Carquest told me this when I was on the phone with him. Someone told it to him him and he thought it was funny and shared. I found it funny too because it can be so true. JEEP: Just Empty Every Pocket

Idk if that makes sense?? makes sense in my mind lmao. I don't compar "parts failing" to "Jeep failing" cus I can tell you replacing a timing belt on a honda every 90,000 miles is a fail lmao.

2 comments. 1 was good. The other pissed me off. First 1 we were talking about a friends ZJ. "That things not a jeep. All stock in s#!t. But you jeeps bad ***. With the tires sticking out and all" And then he proceeded to say "But its not worth all that your putting into it. If it was a W(RONGLER!!!!) then maybe"
