its the trifecta between my hip, the seat belt buckle, and the center console, one on each side. can hold a can of beer up to a 44oz big gulp. works a lot better than the actual "cup holders" in the center console of every other vehicle i've owned, especially that damn astro van, i turn a corner and anything i put in the damn thing falls out and spills on the floor

Okay. So I went to Autozone to get some parts for my XJ and the guy looks at me and says "The big Jeep or the little Jeep?" ........... I kid you not. After I explained to him three times that Cherokee and Grand Cherokee are the two models that are in no particular size order he said "Oh yeah, I guess if you want to get technical about it." Geez.

me and some friends went out on one of their farms, and one of the guys said "why dont you get a real jeep, one that will keep up with mine" and i replied, "oh like the ones your girlfriend likes? yeah im driving it"
i wont bring up the fact that when his "real jeep" got stuck in the hole my STOCK xj just went through... i made him get on his knees in the mud and beg me to pull him out.. he didnt at first, but after i told him to go ahead and walk home and went to catch up with the others farther up, he called my cell and was more than happy to do so... i regret it being to dark to take pictures....

One of my sisters guy friends came over the other night and i was moving tools between the XJ and the ram.
him "what is that thing"
me "its my jeep"
him "why would dot that to a jeep and why do you need it"
me "its fun"
him "cars are to get from point A to B"
me "then why did your parents buy you a Lexus"
He shut up at that point.
another one at the part counter
me "I need a disturber rotor for a 92 Jeep Cherokee 4.0"
parts guy "2wd or 4wd"
me being a dick "its 3wd" (open front locked rear=3 wheels will spin)
he had the most puzzled look on his face though i don't know why you need to know if its 2wd or 4wd for a motor part.

When I first bought my Jeep, my boss (a mechanic), said "That'll never see the road".
I pulled his Wrangler out from a mudbog 3 weeks later.
