Conversation with my step dad yesterday:
Me-I'm really looking forward to getting a lift on so I can do some off-roading
Step dad- you can't go offroading in your 2WD jeep
Me- sure I can... I can either convert it to 4WD, lock the back, or just not do anything and I can still go off roading
Step dad- No. Your not. It's a waste of money
Me- you don't know what you're talking about(now this is where I wanted to just start yelling at him but I kept my cool)
Step dad- I'm not going to argue with you right now
Now I suppose I can see where he is coming from value wise because he owns a used car dealership and everything is value to him but he doesn't need to tell me what I can and can't do with MY jeep that I paid for. Especially since the title isn't in his name

Lmao.... my stomach would've dropped if I seen that. As my Halloween costume this year I'm dressing as a gas pump with $6.59 a gal. Now that's scary.

Another thing not to say to xj owner... don't tell me I need the newest BS spark plugs. Just give me what I asked for! "But e3 spark plugs have tri spark technology and it Burns fuel better.... shut up! give me my champions!

Gas, last week, at the station by my home was $4.33. I haven't looked this week. While in Michigan, I saw it as low as $3.85. In NW Indiana, it's $3.95.

Why do I always have to yell when we're on the highway? Can't you get quiet tires?

Why are you beating up your Jeep, the fenders are fine! (running 35's on 5" lift...yeah)
