You know you drive an XJ when passengers often complain:

"Holy crap, this thing rides like hell!"

One: Does it look like a friggin' caddy? No.

Two: It's a jeep, obviously outfitted for off roading and 4x4. You think it was designed with ride quality and smooth street cruising in mind? HA.

"oh my god don't you have suspension why do I feel the bumps?"

Me "sorry my Unicode design didn't have that aspect in my when my xj was created, just power and aggression was the concern."

That is ignorance. Than what do people consider a "real jeep" just the wrangler I don't get it. Jeeps main cars are the wrangler and Cherokee/ grand cherokee

The best way I've heard it put to me was "oh, you got a big jeep! I thought you got a little one."
