I was very surprised to see how many of those actually fit me... Guess that means I really am addicted... I had most of the J's already programed into my phone.. with the exception of XJ so far.. but that quickly got added, trust me!!

Where I worked in Pennsylvania:

-no one parked in my spot. Too much mud on the asphalt.

-everyone knew when it was going to rain, they would see me walking to the parking lot with a trash bag to cover my seat.

-on my ride home, Jeep dealership salesmen would actually wave to me driving by. I was the only one in a topless TJ with a suit on.

Those were the days...
