and you see reminders of your last wheelin trip...

and you owe your lose of mpg to the added under-the-hood crap...

You kow you drive an XJ when even your kids call it by it's name and talk about more affectionately than they do the dog.

In MN the winter air is drier. Which cause static shocks. Since the XJ has a metal rocker that sticks out past the door opening, your leg passes it on the way out. Sooo every time I get a shock in back of my leg.

I live in MN and have never been shocked in that way, but I could see it happening.

Try a Colorado winter. Even if I don't even move I get static shocks on everything metal in my jeep.
