When you go into a verizon store just to "look at phones" even though you have sprint and the only reason you went in was so you could park next to a lifted YJ.
Same thing with TJ maxx...happened to me twice today HAHA
I'm a jeep loser

and it didn't dawn on you TJ Maxx is a store until you remembered this is an XJ thread
i prefer not to think of it as being a jeep loser, so much as a XJ addict

When you have more than 1, but only 1 is drivable.
When you buy some sort of fluid, be it oil or power steering fluid, more often than you buy milk.
When you are excited to spend less than $40 on a tank of gas, from E.
When you are excited that said tank goes more than 250 miles.
When you pull away normally from an intersection after a bit of rain, only to spin the tires a little on the white painted line and get a dirty look from a cop (it's the Torque, officer, I swear!).
And the top way you know you drive an XJ... "When you spend more time on Cherokee Forum than actually driving the Cherokee!"
