When you tear stuff apart that works perfectly fine and has no problems just to make sure it works perfectly fine and has no problems,

When your "NEW" rig is at least 9 years old, needs new brakes the moment you get it home and requires a drip pan to be parked in the driveway.

You know you own a XJ when you cut your alarm off by opening the hatch.
You know you own a XJ when everybody else but you loves to see a paved road

When you tell one of your friends you are going to park on their car when they **** you off, and it actually works as a threat because they know it is possible

To get these nails.... 1/ you played with a nail gun (and lost) 2/ you tried to force a police/army/border barrage.... 3/you're just plain out of luck
They put them on the road to steal the trucks over here. They were stuck in beer caps and put hundreds on the pavement. I didn't even stop, the caps fell off after 30-40 miles.

Yeah in my area people put nails and screws in soda bottles or sandwich boxes (whopper or big mac style boxes) and wait til people run them over usually for a kick to see someone with a flat tire or to steal their car when they are either waiting for a tow truck or off getting help.

Ive had this happen to me HUNDREDS of times but luckily since my truck is rollin on 33s my truck laughed it off. thankfully my XJ isnt street legal! if it was id probably be screwed since I still havent gotten a chance to install my lift thats been waiting.
