liberties hold up better in accidents than xj's do.


and xj's don't hold up well in side flops or roll overs....unless they're caged.

Yea, but, then you have to drive a Liberty.

Never tell an XJ owner to buy a Liberty.

in all honestly, at least these xj's aren't zj's, wj's, or anything newer than 2004.

Don't tell an xj owner they're xj (is)
Too loud
Too dirty
Not reliable
Can't make it up, over, through or past that
Is ugly/cute

But please tell an xj owner
Nice jeep
Thanks for pulling me out
That thing is the most BA thing on 4 wheels

and you know this how?

every ounce of a liberty has many more layers of sheet metal on them. the A pillars especially.

Although this thread is past " things not to say to an xj owner" but the reason I can't stand libertys is they were created to replace the xj, when what's his face took over jeep he wanted a newer car
