Friend at gas station. "you drive a p***y jeep!
Me "does that mean you ride a c**k?"
me again" at least my p***y jeep takes a pounding and can still take more after your truck prematurely ends in whatever you put it through."

Had a buddy ask if it was a Grand Cherokee or the cheaper one?
Then when he got stuck and I pulled him out gave him a grand bill and asked him if I sill fell into the cheaper section.
And then at NAPA is it a Grand Cherokee? No did I say grand...then go in the next day and get parts for my Grand Cherokee that's the same year also,that tends to **** them off...

I went to my insurance office today bescause I bought a second cherokee last night. It's a 99 Cherokee Sport. Handed the insurance lady my title so she could enter the info. First she couldn't find me on my policy cause she was on someone elses. I let that go. Then she found mine and was entering the information and asked is the a wrangler or a grand cherokee...my response: B%^*& does it even say f%#^%% wrongler or grand anywhere on the title?! It's a real jeep a CHEROKEE, it's def not a girlie a$$ wrongler. Funniest part...my husband is getting one of those this weekend, as she makes a sad face. Well it's a girl jeep I said, and she transfered me to a different agent in the office.

I had this happen at the Jeep dealership when I went for a part. I told him I needed it for a 97 Jeep Cherokee. he then gives me attitude about whether it's a Grand Cherokee or a regular. I told him if it was a grand cherokee I would have said so. I'm sorry that I gave you all the info right away (engine type and everything) and you stopped listening because you wanted to know if it was a grand or not. I obviously know exactly which vehicle I own. I also work in customer service so I know that you need to be listening to your customers. Bugs me when "professionals" do this stuff.

Real quick, my friend has a dodge ram with 7" inch in the front and no lift in the rear. total brodozer
(my friend) dude, you should find a long travel suspension instead of just a lift and prerunner your Jeep
(me) why?
(friend) itll be better for off roading
(me) I didnt know being stuck consantly was off roading
(friend) dude, that was 4 times and the mud was worse than it looked.
(me) soo why did I have no problem with it?
(friend).....
(me) cause I bought a Jeep.

A while back, I went to a place called "Maximum Altitude", was supposed to be an off-road shop, well I wanted a quote for a 6.5" lift, after looking at my XJ for about ten minutes, he told me this-
"Well, I'd recommend you get a 4 inch suspension lift, and a 2 inch body lift." That's when I just thanked him for his time, and let him know I will never let him touch my Jeep. Of course now I realize how stupid I was, I own an XJ, when I lift it, I'm doin the work myself... and am only getting 4.5".

The only time i washed the mud off of it and cleaned it meticulously was for the marriage of my brother.
At the end of the day when it was over he told me: " You did great today, but did you really have to take that thing with you? couldn't you take the good car?"
