First off, there is no way a stock WK2 will out wheel my XJ. I'll tow her ***** out all day! I always talk about my Jeep just like girls always talk about shopping, stupid tv shows, and school drama. My XJ doesn't look stupid at all and the lift serves a purpose. Also, I spend money on my Jeep like girls spend money on makeup and clothes. So if I want to call them out on that, then they can't talk lmao . I'm pretty jealous of you man, at least you have like 6 XJ owners in your school. There are 3 XJs (including mine) out of the 400+ cars in my school parking lot. Two XJs are owned by girls, and they are stock. I'm the only lifted vehicle too lol.
hahah girls always say how my XJ is ugly and dumb. There is 3 xjs at my school and all are stock beside mine.

Seriously only 3??? My school has over 600 hundred students (grade 7-12) and only some 10th graders and most 11th and 12th graders drive and we have 8-10+ XJ's in our lot and I think only 1 Wrangler. I can list the color, model and approximate year of all of them too. I need to start taking my camera with me but if my GF saw me taking pics of other peoples jeeps she would think I'm either a stalker or just weird . The best story of all of these jeeps was when we had a bad snow storm and my school is on top of a huge 1/4+ mile hill. The only cars in the parking lot were 6 Cherokees (including mine) and 2 more were on the way up the hill. Sorry for going off topic

My school is huge but not everyone drives. We have about 5,000 students (grades 9-12). I think there's about 15 different JKs in the parking lot, all are stock though. Not too many people at my school are into cars, so I park with the group of kids who are. Sadly none of them are trucks or Jeeps, so I feel a little out of place lol. I can take guesses at what year XJs are just by looking at them. There's a Black 96 XJ country, a White 2000 XJ sport, and my White 96 XJ SE. I'm almost positive the only vehicles that would do well in a snow storm over here would be the XJs. Last time we got a foot of snow over here, I drove around and never had a problem, it was tons of fun too.

I've heard that on TV once. I was watching Trucks! and they were doing the Cheep Cherokee project, after taking it off-road one of the guys mentioned "this bad boy isn't just for hauling groceries anymore" or something like that. I wish I could have reach through the TV screen and choked him out
