Default you might drive an XJ if:

you might drive an XJ if an Orlando city police officer is driving in the lane beside you, and almost runs into you because he is checking out your XJ, instead of paying attention to the curve in the road

Or worse, when you tell them you have a 4.0 and they think you mean a 2.5...

I hate that. When will people learn the difference between the V6 and I6 as well as the difference between the 2.5 and 4.0. My guess never.

I haven't seen a Jack in the box in years, but I get your point. He could have just pulled me over, but then, we were 20 miles out of Orlando, and he would have called for back up. and the helocopter, since I knew the turn for the woods was just ahead. We could have put that Crown Victoria to the test .

Might be able to outrun the suburban, but you cant outrun the radio.

YMDAXJI you buy 13x9 baking pans for extremely cheap hood vents.
