When they tell me that, I tell em, "I took off my sway bars cause it makes driving more interesting and helps keep me awake." I love watching the color drain from their faces

man, i really like the shape of the XJ. i think its cool and simple. it doesn't need to be fancy to be good looking.

Also, at first i was like "hey, they're just trying to make sure they're getting the right part for your car!" and i figured a lot of people go into parts stores not knowing the difference between and cherokee and a grand cherokee. But so far every person at every parts store that i've been to has asked me that. it's getting old. especially the "is it a grand cherokee or the little one?"

!!! they're the same size!!!

When ever i go to advanced auto I usually get the same guy. And tho sometime I come in asking for a different part. Or as we have discovered. Alot of weird @$$ $#!t. When ever I say Jeep he usually remember its a CHEROKEE not a grand. Heck some times he even remember its a Sport!

I cant stand it when I hear the words "back order" or "out of stock" but the worst is "discontinued"

What's even worse than discontinued is "Why would you still drive that antique? Why not just get a newer model?"

One I got from a new FJ owner... "Why not get something capable."

another one I've heard a while ago from a 4cyl wrangler owner.. "Thats not a real Jeep, real Jeeps have round headlights."
