You know you own/drive a XJ when...

[GrimmJeeper]

when you've told your wife/girlfriend "come look at this thread about owning XJs" and she just sighs and walks out of the room.

HAHAHA EXACTLY!

 

[muduck18]

when you've told your wife/girlfriend "come look at this thread about owning XJs" and she just sighs and walks out of the room.

or she adds' "is the one about not being able to see in it from outside without a stool on there... or the fact that if I let the hatch go all the way open I can't get it back down without help from a stranger or by standing on the bumper and reaching out?"

then sighs and walks away.

Not necessarily just an XJ as it is Jeep's in general but...

When you're one of the only ones on the road during a snow storm...and everybody else is in a ditch somewhere

 

[Red90Laredo]

when the rear hatch shocks you thought were good really aren't and you almost knock yourself out with the thing.

 

[Ritter4.0]

you wheel in 4HI so if you get "stuck" you can just shift into 4LO an say nevermind getting a "recovery vehicle"

you love the noises it make to let you know its running right.

 

[Hubbazoot]

you have a story for just about every part in the thing.

most of those stories involve either tools or girls.... or both

 

[GrimmJeeper]

you wash and wax the rig after a trip to the forest, and are glad that the stripes down the side dont buff out, they just get shiny.

:cheers:

 

[jersey_v2xj]

when your friend says what's that noise and you turn up your radio and say "what noise?"

when you tell your friend to be quite because you think you hear a new noise

when your friends always complain about getting in or out of the backseat

 

[redneckboarder]

when your backseat is constantly folded down cuz the spare is in the way so multiple people on short trips sit on the speaker box (NH has no seat belt law for folks over 18)

 

[WrenchMonkey]

Or, to boil it down:

When you drive a four-door two-seater.

You actually wash and wax?
...I don't wash it.

 

[winterbeater]

......people on the forum want to buy Chinese front ends to make them look modern. And actually organize a shipment.

 

[Hubbazoot]

your other DD you bought ends up either being a parts car....or gets lifted and modded too.

 

[GrimmJeeper]

i havent washed it in over a year, but when i have somewhere fancy to go i shine her up good

 

[Mr.OverKill]

when the judge asks you where are you on your custody settlement and you say "i want 50/50 for your child and Full for the XJ" ( true story )

 

[Hackmeister]

when you keep hearing about all these people being terrified of the economy who don't spend a dime...

but you're proud to do your part to fix things by constantly buying american made parts for the XJ!

When the guy behind the parts counter starts quizzing you about your jeep and how you did the disc brake conversion.
