I saw that one. Didn't the guy end up throwing up all over the place and the back of the cop car?

I see so many of them around here that now I just look for whether the driver is looking at mine or not, in which case we give each other "the nod" lol

I used to drive a '77 Cutlass, now THAT was a special day when you saw another one of those on the road. Another pulled up next to me in traffic one day, had a little conversation and raced from the light, haha

Funny thing is that the XJ is the only thing that survived the termanator! those 4.0s can take a beating. lol

Yea, I'm ALWAYS excited to see XJ's or MJ's. But when I see one while I'm not driving my XJ I get all put out, wishing I was driving mine too!! My GF has started calling em out more than me also, funny how that happens.


Shallow Hal


Don't think a movie, maybe 50/50? Haven't seen it. just Justin Gordon-Levitt, he knows what's up

I notice xj/zj/mj/wj/cj, full size jeeps, old jeeps and wranglers, in movies and in real life. But I'm not usually in my xj when I see a cool one, but when I am and I see one you can bet there getting a wave. When me and my brother were little we use to use the stop watch on our wrist watches to count them, those were the days. Haha
