I KNOW RIGHT?!?!?!?!?

 

Well hopefully the jeeps soul is with the jeep gods or some other XJ and having fun.

You know u own a XJ when you look at every weekend like another adventure.

 

My first thought was, oh poor XJ, and i almost cried.
How funny would it have been if the driver got out saw his front then yelled "who wants a free axle?"

you know you drive an XJ when you try to hillbilly rig every small problem you have till everything is almost perfect. Like me with my annoying rattling electric fan. i need to find some high density foam.

 

That. Was. Awesome!

You know you drive an XJ when your stock XJ gets up a muddy slope in 2WD that a lifted 4Runner on 33's needs 4L for. Did it today

 

You know you drive an XJ when, the unknowing security guard at ur work asks "How the drive here in the blizard was?" & you just reply "Eh I drive a JEEP!" Lol

Happened this morning, & I thought of this thread...

 

Blizzard? what blizzard? Oh yeah...the snow! Sorry I am late, had to pull people out on the way

 

You wheel the hell out of it all day. Then drive six hours to work and just know when you get off the boat in two weeks its gonna fire right up and take you six hours home!

 

You know you drive an XJ when you try to hook up a stereo and instead blow a taillight...how on earth does that happen?

 

you know when its an xj when your fat buddys all want to ride in your cool rig . but when you hit a bump its like un earthqauke

 

you know you drive an xj when you pull a dodge out on 44's and only having the back rear since the front one was broke

 

You know you drive an XJ when you go missing and nobody starts searching until a week later.

 

you know you drive an xj when you drive your xj to work and another one pulls up beside you at red light and you know before you even look that it is an xj cause his kick azz stereo is rattling every panel in the thing lol
Unless your confused and its actually your panels rattling lol

 

You can list what parts you have broken or replaced and how many times they have been replaced.
You cut the ash tray out of the center console in your jeep to add more gauges.
A major mechanical part (engine, trans, transfer case, axle) breaks and you just tell people "I'll replace it next weekend" like it's not a big deal.
You watch the weather channel hoping for a massive snow storm in the winter so you can go drive around in the snow while everyone else plans to stay inside.
You decide you wanna tear across a random field, or highway median while everyone else in the car is freaking out but your saying "hold on guys, this is gonna be fun"
You go mudding not only cause it's fun but because your inspection sticker is expired and you need something to cover it up till you get to a shop.
They have to tell you you need to cover your fenders and put a back bumper on to pass inspection.
Your idea of a fun afternoon is going to a pull your own parts junkyard just to see what you can find.
The people at several local autoparts stores know you on a first name basis, give you a employee discount and write you up on a shop discount cause you come in so much.
You have numerous "spair" parts laying around incase you or a buddy ever needs something.
Your girlfriend calls you rig your "other girlfriend cause you spend equal amounts of time with both"
You consider a rattle can paint job a "good" paint job
Trail burn is pin striping and your proud of it
"Thats not a rust hole, it's a drain hole"
You seen to be the only person that is capeable of opening the rear doors in 95 and older XJ's
In the winter you look for the pile of snow in a parking lot so that you can park on it
You have owned your jeep(s) for a few years now and can list off how many other jeeps you cannibalized for parts
You consider driving a couple hundred miles for cheap parts a good deal even when you get s$%&ty mileage

 

also, you know you drive an XJ when you sale your 86 Z-28 to make space for another XJ

 

you know you drive an xj when you grease the front steering and it goes faster.
