Not really XJ exclusive, but you know you drive an XJ when you're friends keep complaining about everything wrong with your Jeep. "The fuel pump is too loud, it's giving me a headache", "your exhaust is too loud", "can it be lifted any higher?"

My response? "you know you can walk, right?"

That's why I don't bother with the radio anymore. LOL

You know you drive an XJ when you slide into a deep ditch, and by the time a passerby gets his recovery gear out to help you, you're already out and back on the road.

When you google Jeep Cherokee and all the links are to the Grand Cherokee.... When you tell the guy at O'Reilly's you have the normal "small" jeep cherokee 5 times and yet he orders a part for a Grand Cherokee.

You guys with the chirping belts, check your idler pulleys and a/c compressor if you've got one. They are probably the most common to chirp on these things.

Haha yea. I was going to convert mine to oba, but my compressor died so I'm just taking it out and moving my alt up.

When you say you're removing A/C components cause it doesn't work, and nobody questions it, cause they're deciding if they wanna do the same thing.
