1. Parking at the mall next to lifted wrongler and getting sneered at by the driver.... because my xj is muddy and his 24" chrome rims might get dirty being next to me.
2. It's not a V6! It's the almighty 4.0L!
3. can't find many manual tran's xj around me.....
and how wonderfully strong my brakes are in the morning when I am still groggy. Then stop working that way once they warm up.

1. The annoying squeek that I can't find coming from the rear hatch area.
2. The annoying squeek that comes from the 4wd Shifter linkage
3. The annoying squeek and crack sound that comes from the cheap plastic that is called a dashboard every single time you had a bump or acorn in the road.

I think I see a pattern here.

Every time turning on and off the fan you have to turn it through the a/c.
