I6 has less moving parts than a V8, less stuff to break.

Here's one I get- "Why isn't your Jeep muddy?"
Two reasons-
1. I rather dislike rust, so I hose off mud
2. WE'VE BEEN IN A DROUGHT SINCE FEBRUARY

To make matters worse- I got this question from some chick driving a 2WD JK with street tires, and looked like it had just been polished.

He has since sold his jimmy and bought an XJ. because he got tired of havin to get out and ride with me when trails got too bad.

I'm not gonna talk crap about a Jimmy, my dad had a '76 Jimmy, Big Blue, when I was little... without that I may have ended up wanting a Mustang rather then a Jeep, it's what got me into offroading. Granted it had 40" mudders and a huge lift, but he admitted on the day I got my Jeep and tested it that the XJ is more capable.
