but i still love my jeep.
That's not just heat leaking into the cabin, it's also carbon monoxide. Feel sleepy when you drive?

I hate that as soon as you fix something, something else immediately goes wrong. Or that while you're under there fixing something, you notice 5 other things that need fixing

A chain is only as strong as its weakest link. And if that chain is a rusty and abused POS, you're going to have a lot of weak links.

Exhaust that refuses to stay in place and keeps falling down on the crossmember is probably what I hate the most...

Followed closely by the front brakes that still squeal even though everything has been replaced...Calipers, rotors, pads... I need new spindles because they are wore pretty bad where the caliper touches, I think that is my problem.

OOOO and then there is the sound that I randomly get from the drivers side front that sounds like my tire is hitting the body, but yet I cannot find anywhere it has rubbed. It does it while driving straight down the road on a smooth road, so the tire isn't actually anywhere near the body...

not real sure what i hate about my jeep. probably the headliner. not sure which i hate more: the destroyed headliner or fools quoting me $300 to fix it.

all in all the headliner is the only problem with it, so i really don't have anything to gripe about.

<3 my jeep.

what I hate about my jeep is that while doing this axle swap it feels like I take one step forward and three steps back.

underengineered stock crap that I haven't gotten to upgrading yet, and the millions of annoying rattling noises that my tires' vibrations and my sub set off. I should just rip all the crappy plastic interior panels out, might as well since my carpet's already gone. Other than that I love my Jeep
