It's a jeep thing

[camodog]

I thought it would be fun to start a thread of fun/crazy/weird things jeep owners that use their vehicles on a daily basis have to sacrifice and/or put up with for driving with their hearts instead of their brains.

I will go first with an easy one-


The dreaded death wobble. It seems like no matter what, at some point in your life you will have the pleasure of DW encounter. Extra points if it happens while driving on the interstate while trying to maintain the legal driving minimum speed limit.

Keeping your doors from being blown or gravitied into other cars in parking lots while loading, entering or exiting.

"This is me at least once a day lol "

LOL me too, every single day. Except a jeep fanatic would ask me why the doors are on to begin with.

ps- O-H!!

I can't wait to take my doors off, but got stiffen up the frame first just to make sure I don't end up with a bent frame.

I-O!!!

Removing carpets as a solution to a leak and/or dirt accumulation.

In the warmer months:
- Actually using the console and glove box locks.
- Any sense of privacy (I'll never forget taking care of a particular itch and getting caught by the car next to me)
- Driving for no particular reason and intentionally taking the longest route
- Removing doors is a smile inducing ritual

This plus having the back right belt loop torn off all my jeans from that damn striker latch!

Convincing myself that I'm choosing to drive this slow.

Wincing as the 100th stone hits windshield #3.

Getting overly excited every time I see a dirt road.

Hitting pot holes to improve the ride quality.

I just never put it in. But I have a back deck on mine that keeps the water out.

Loudly giving voice to my opinion of anyone who dare not respond to my Jeep wave.

Regardless of who is in the car.

XJ doors are non structural and don't stiffen the "frame". Having no doors and flexing won't cause a bent frame.
