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

when you drive for years refusing to replace the rear shocks cause you know THOSE TINY BOLTS ARE GOING TO SNAP at the top mounts.

when you gauge how deep the puddle is by how much water rises around your carpet because the floor boards have been rusted out for many years.

or your drain holes are made by a Desert Eagle.:laugh3:
 
oh and when your oil pressure gauge seems to be sailing away all the way too the right and you get so used to it that when you get in a different xj that has a working oil gauge you think something just isn't right.
 
You put off serious things (brakes, shocks) to wheel, or do other improvements to it that seemed more important.
 
..... when your grandma gets mad when she has to go somewhere with you and you insist on "the jeep" and not her car.
..... when all your army buddies laugh at you, but call on you when they're stuck in the snow.
..... when people riding with you scream from the really loud knock your jeep makes and you get punched for laughing!
..... when your mom won't ride in it unless it's a life and death situation.
..... when you start reading this at around 6 pm and then look again and it almost midnight.
..... when you're thrilled that you're not the only one that has these problems, but you still couldn't do with out them any more!
..... when you can think about one of these post for about 10 mins and realize that's the same thing that's been happening to you too!
 
when you will never ever be jealous of the wrangler guys cause your doors come off too
and you can carry enough stuff in your ride to almost build a whole other xj.
:moon::roflmao::moon::roflmao::moon:
 
..... when you see another xj using a REALLY big rock for an e-brake and completely understand!

... when your girlfriend gets mad because you spend more time under your jeep than with her

... when you name your jeep after your own stupidity (mine's called lucy. lefty lucy righty tighty. forgot that one time.)

-When the guys at the parts store call to check on you if you haven't been in within the last few days.

-When your bumper and winch cost more than the vehicle they're attached to and the two parts vehicles in the field combined.

-When everytime you see a Liberty you wonder how many of those Trail Rated badges would fit up the rectum of the guy at Chrysler who decided that the Liberty would take the place of the XJs.

-When you consider the nicest Explorers and ZJ/WJs most people have ever seen as good possible source of parts for the $200 XJ in the driveway.

-When YJ/TJ drivers get pissed as they pass you on forestry roads as you are stopped removing your doors with your three passengers plus a dog plus camping/fishing gear for a week plus a a canoe plus two mountain bikes plus a place to put the doors.
 
You drive it to work covered in mud all week because you spent the last of your extra money to go wheeling! Ask me how i know! :D
