-you know you drive an xj when your significant other can't stand the fact that your willing to spend every dollar you have on it.

-when you try not to make it too apparent but your staring down all the other xj's on the road checking them out

-when your friends complain about passenger feet frostbite

-when its impossible to look back at it at least once when your leaving it

-when yours has leather seats every other xj owner gets jealous

-when you try to hide the fact that you drive the dreaded 2wd version

-when a couple grand can get you your dream vehicle unlike everyone else in the world

Ah, I see what you were after, haha.

You know you drive an XJ when you can't wait to get home from work so you can work on it.

Yeah,your check engine light on means everything is okay or you have a renix, and there is no check engine light even though it would be on if there was one.

lol in a storm before, I had a bucket full of rainwater and I squirted a little jeep soap into it and I used a wash clothe and rubbed the jeep down since it was already wet and then I let mother nature rinse it off for me lol.

You know you drive an xj when you take a meter and measure the height of the neighbours Prius to see if you can crawl over it the next time he parks it in front of your house.
