This is just something you don't say to a Jeep owner in general. My dad was saying how Hummer isn't around anymore, and my mom said "Weren't Hummer made by Jeep?"

I was at a dealership looking for an XJ, and they didn't have what I was looking for. The guy said "how about a Rav4?" I walked out.

"What is that clunking sound when your stopping?"

Passenger vehicle diagnosis service.... Turning a corner and accelerating last night right after locker install... "Sounds like ball joints"

A conversation I wish I didn't have. Ukrainian kid I work with: "Yeah, I just got subs in my car." Me: "Nice, which car is yours?" He points to a stock red chevy blazer (Parked next to my lifted XJ) and says "It's the red jeep over there."

I said that toyotas were pieces of crap and that I'd never drive one again on my way out. I mean, hey, I'm looking for a legitimate off-road truck, and he tries to sell me a Rav4?!? sure, buddy, I'd love to drive the same car as my mother. She likes her because it's easy to get into.
