haha, my response to that would have to be "You know, it's always nice to have something on your roof for show, when will I ever need a spare tire?! What's the worst that could happen? Hit a sharp rock out crawling and puncture my tire? That will never happen!"

Something I heard today
why is your trim falling off? Is it supposed to be like that? (Are you serious? How stupid are people these days?)

Why don't you buy a new 4 door truck, your Jeeps getting old and your putting alot of money into it. If you like jeeps why not buy one of those new Libertys, looks like your jeep? Dad...

Me: Because I'm fine with my Cherokee, fits me right and they don't make these new.

Dad: They got a 02 Grand Cherokee for sale down the road.

Me: I like my Cherokee, theres nothing wrong with mine, runs fine and everything..

Always here it everytime I pass a dealership, theirs a nice 4 door Ford.

I've gotten s*** like that before. I told them to go ahead and look at my ground clearance compared to theirs, because that's what counts.

Back before I got my 89 XJ running my girlfriend asked me why I don't just sell it and that I'm wasting my time and money. Now she is going to ride in the back for now on.

Good luck with that




Things not to say to an XJ owner....

  • Only the Grand Cherokee came with a limited package...
  • 13MPG????!!!?!?!?!?!?!?! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
  • Sorry sir we don't wash mud trucks
  • Did you know you're missing your fenders? (referring to fender flares)
  • What size blocks do you have on the back?
  • What is that grinding sound?
  • (a long time ago...) You didn't trade that in with cash for klunkers?! You are such an idiot!

I told a guy I know I have a Jeep, he asked to see it. We get out to the parking lot and he says, "Oh a cherokee... p****."

Let me tell you something, I am 6'3" and a solid 230lbs... he isnt. We were in an empty parking lot. I dont condone violence and also I want to let you know that he is fine... now anyway.
