Wife: "When are you going to be done with your Jeep?"
Me: "What, like for good?!"
Wife: "Umm yea!"
Me: "It's a Jeep Thing!"
She just stared me down and rolled her eyes.

Had my dad tell me today that I'm going to break my xj because they're not built for offroading like a wrangler. I plan on taking him on a crazy trail to see if I can change his opinion haha

1) What's the big difference between a Grand Cherokee and a Cherokee?

2) I think the phrase 'XJ' is stupid.

3) Why don't you just sell it?

4) That doesn't seem normal..

5) My most hated: What's the big deal? It's just another truck..
Um no, it is NOT a truck. It's a Jeep, a friggin Cherokee at that matter. GET IT RIGHT.

I hate when some jackass ask me about my lift and what I paid for it then tells me I waisted my $$ and could have did it alot cheaper with lift blocks and so forth, thats usually when I say you get what you pay for too.

wanna race? (if i wanted to race everybody y would i buy a jeep???)
is that a body lift??(do you see a frame under there retard???)
bet you couldnt follow. ( mostly get this from full size owners. they usually end up hopping in with me about 10 feet through the trail cuz their trucks cant squeeze through the trails )
