look at the old wagons. theyre like the cars they portray but the roof line goes all the way back to a hatch. an SUV a robust offroad capable station wagon.usually much bigger and sporty. thats why the grand cherokee is the suv. our tires were smaller and overall the XJ was smaller and not as sporty. and soccor moms drive vans. vans are for the most part a truck wagon. panel trucks were the original term.
and the XJ concept was made off the wagoneer idea. which was a boxy 4wd stationwagon

Not all "SUV's" are offroad capable..

(off topic, sorry.) But I'm doing doorless on my country XJ with power everything. Just make disconnects/plugs for the electronics where they run between door and body. Extra work hooking them up, disconnecting them, but no big deal.

"You should have bought the wrangler"
Why?
"Because its doors come off"
-_-
"Wranglers are the best, you think you can keep up?"
*30seconds into the trail*
*CB radio* "hey, I'm stuck"
Where?
"The gutter"
What? Seriously?
"Yes, I swear to God if you put this in the forums ill cry"
Just like your wrangler is for my help?
"I hate you"
I typed this while he was trying to figure out my winch
oh how I love Tapatalk

" why are you cutting up the fenders?"
" so i can fit my 31's without stuffing the fenders"
" why do you want 31's?"
" Ground Clearance"
" You know thats gonna ruin your gas mileage right"
" Does it look like i care about MPG? I floor it at every light"
" You should've bought a real Jeep"
" This is a real jeep"
" No i mean one of those wranglers, With the doors and tops that come off"
If i wanted to spend 6k for 10 year old wrangler thats stock i wouldve but instead i bought a 800 16 year old jeep/

"Nothing on them is hard to work on, which is convenient, cause youre working on them all the ****ing time! A jeep owner and his toolbox are soon wed."
My friends dad.
I actually found it pretty funny.
