And my favorite:
::walk into auto parts store, and tell them, "I need such and such a part for a '99 Jeep Cherokee, 4 wheel drive, 4.0 inline 6." Their response, "Grand Cherokee or regular?" Did I SAY grand at any point?::
Yes yes i hate that and how about whin ur on craigs list and u c an ad about a cherokee and u click on it and fine out its a grand cherokee how can u not know what u own

"Your just lifting to compinsate"
Me- "yup I am for its low clearance to crawl." When people say that it pisses me off.

I had a girl tell me a while back that she knows why some guys like big trucks. When I reminded her I'm about to lift my Jeep, she told me, "Oh, you must be one of them."
I said, "Yep. I'm one of those guys with dents and holes in his rocker panels cause it isn't lifted yet...but that'll be fixed soon, and you'll still be a *****."

Sweet mall crawler.....
When you gonna grow up, sell that thing and get something with decent mileage?
Wash it, it's so dirty.
Whats the point in lifting it and putting bigger tires on it?
Or my personal favorite that typically makes me want to punch whoever happens to say it to me is "why do you waste your time and money on that beat up rusty old jeep?"

People in CO respect Jeeps, probably because we have mountains, and the Jeeps are the ones pulling everyone out of ditches when it snows.

I drove 2 hours one time to look at a "2000 jeep cherokee" on craigslist, called the lady, texted her before i left just to make sure it was cherokee not a grand cherokee and she swore up and down it was just a cherokee not a grand cherokee. Got there and it was a grand cherokee so i just kept driving.
