I was getting gas at the local Randalls, and a guy rolled through on the other side of the pumps and yelled "That Jeep is badass!" Then as he continued rolling away I swear I hear something negative about green Jeeps. But I could be mistaken... rofl

My wife has commented on how happy she is with me screwing around with my Jeep. She's noticed that Jeeps are considerably less expensive than building and flying airplanes!!:D

I hope she doesn't find out about the stuff I just bought off of ebay for the 1946 Cessna that's sitting in pieces in the barn.:rolleye0012::out::greensmilies-017::greensmilies-017:

EEEWWWW, gull wing doors. Might give a new meaning to going doorless. Of course if a blue XJ opens its doors like that, it might have to file a flight plan. Maybe leap he Rubicon in a single bound.

I've had a few people pull up and say how much they like the doors being off. Especially when it's over 90. The best comment I've ever gotten though was Yesterday. A girl in a Grand Cherokee stopped and waved me down as I was pulling into a parking lot to tell me she "Loved my Jeep!"

Don't get to many comments. people are usually speechless around it. If I wanted people telling me my jeep was pretty I would have painted it red :D

I think you just slipped up Jim. Two red Jeeps and two comments. One comment was "That's a bad ass Jeep!" The other was "I love your Jeep!" No one said anything about pretty.

You know I think you have a crush on my Jeep. I'll be keeping my eye on you!

For those of you who don't know, I call my heep The Nasty. When people see it for the first time they usually say something like "That's The Nasty? I was expecting something a bit more....." usually followed by something about the paint, lift, or overall look of it.

Close the doors and thats a baddass jeep ... I heard about a guy that had lambo doors on an XJ and when asked why would he do such a ghetto move on a offroad rig he simply stated... you ever try to open your door when your stuck next to a tree...

I heard this morning...

I need to keep a proof of insurance in my Jeep.
I need to remove the clear covers off my license plates.
I was asked "Do you know how fast you were going?"
I used to have one of these and I hate that I got rid of it.

The officer may be joining us on the site. I told him I just bought a 99 for $2500 he should get another one!

I don't like the first part of that conversation, but the last part is very cool !!!!!!!!

No it's cool. I figure anytime I do things I'm not supposed to do I'm subject to the laws just like everyone else. Now if I didn't have defensive driving to fall back on I'd be upset, but I still wouldn't take it out on the guy just doing his job.

He knew a lot about Jeeps and it was fun, in a situation that usually isn't, talking about my Jeep and the things he had done to his.

Actually Cops here are cool and most are wheelers so we get aways with alot we shouldn't. CHP are the ones who have "no sence of humor" here. But there are some very cool ones there to come to think of it. A cust told me this story the other day. he was driving up Hwy 70 twords Reno and was speeding when he was pulled over by the CHP.The officer approched the veh and before he could speak the cust said that he had an excuse for whatever he was doing wrong. The Officer said ok let me here it. The cust said , you see I'm on my way to Reno, my wife is gonna get pregnant there tonight and I'd really like to be there. The officer just broke out in hysterical laughter and let him go. I have yet to try that one but I'm gonna !!!

One of the waaay to many product engineers that work in the offices parked next to me today. I usually sit in my XJ at lunch and we were walking out at the same time. He gave me the usual question about "Why would you do that?" I looked at his Dodge Ram, it's a newer model but I couldn't tell you the year. It's a damn fine truck and sits pretty high, so I just asked "Why havn't you?" He looked back and forth between his truck and Red and you could see the wheels turning. Won't be surprised if h's got a new project for this weekend.

The proper answer is that you are driving a vehicle which has been advertised for over 50 years as a capable OFFROAD vehicle, thus it is designed as such.


The last comment I heard was when are you going to wash that? My answer is when it rains it will get washed.
