Everytime I go to a part store or dealer and ask for a part for a 91 Jeep Cherokee Laredo. And then they go to there computer and say okay Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. As I remember the ZJ was made in 1993 and I didnt say Jeep "Grand" Cherokee. Same goes when looking online. Get more results of Grand Cherokee then Jeep Cherokee. I learned to search Jeep Cherokee with the ending of "Sport" behind it.

"Why didn't you get a 4runner?"
"Hummer makes the best off road vehicles."
"When are you gonna wash that?"
And my favorite:
::walk into auto parts store, and tell them, "I need such and such a part for a '99 Jeep Cherokee, 4 wheel drive, 4.0 inline 6." Their response, "Grand Cherokee or regular?" Did I SAY grand at any point?::

When i go to a parts store and tell them car is 4.0 inline 6 ZJ 1997 make, question is always wasn't that car 5.2? or is it XJ? they dont know what they sell.

yesterday at work i was bringing in all the shopping carts at the end of the day and as i was pushing them in i was admiring my cherokee across the parking lot. As i pushed all the carts into the store i passed customer service and for some reason felt i had to tell the person working there that "i love my jeep" and she replyed "me to" i instently stopped her there and said " no you don't have a jeep you have a pathfinder... big difference" and she looked at me like i was stupid and said "its a jeep to its just like yours"
i couldn't believe she actually thought hers was a jeep i told her it was an suv and she said nooo it was a jeep
.... eventually i realized that i wouldn't be able to teach her the difference and left

I know some people say the same thing about their ChevyTracker.

To me Its looks almost like a Liberty.
But there probably thinking its a TJ exspecialy the 2 door ones.

I like the 80s, earily 90s TJs.

I kinda don't like the newer ones. They made them very wide and big And it kinda don't even look like a TJ anymore.

I hate when ppl say I have a Jeep.... I have to tell them, no that's a truck. Even more when my mom was in the Army during the Jeep era, she says "I thought I saw your truck..." and I say. Not my JEEP
