My friend's dad said the same thing when he first met me. He was like, "what do you drive?" And I replied, "A Jeep." He went outside and exclaimed, "where is your Jeep, I see this SUV thing. Where's the soft top?" I go, "wranglers and CJ's aren't the only 'Jeep'. And also, my Jeep is not an 'SUV'." He was so confused...... haha.

Pretty much... Seriously though, those Chevy guys... They're fine until they make the decision to run 22's and Low-Pro mud tires with their 4 inch body lift.

I offered a lift to a new female work colleague. When we got out to the car park and she saw my XJ she said "Do you have a real car aswell?"
