When your friend that drives a honda civic says your zj is slow and you challenge him to a race during a snowstorm uphill, and he says no and has a sad look on his face.. perks of owning a 4x4 in general

When your wife asks: " what are those stains on the driveway under the jeep?". When the rocker panels are rusting out, but engine starts on the first attempt.

I deleted my fb a while ago and jumped on the twitter social media, but since actively being on jeepforum. I haven't been on it at all. And theres times where I'm under the zj and on jeepforum mobile app simultaneously.

lol I always do that! Even if I'm not looking at a "how to". I just always get curious about what's going on at JF

When you laugh at people who think their vehicle has a "alot" of miles at 150,000. I just say, don't talk till you have 200,000+ on original drivetrain.

When you're glad your vehicle has under 90,000 miles on it because you know you've got another 110,000 miles it'll obtain.

my friends always get on me for working n my zj since it has 245,000 miles on it. They're just jealous because they are working on their fords at 50,000 miles.

Correct. Personally, i think its a toss up between the rumble of a big V8 in a muscle car and the growl of a BMW V8.

Um, I think we're forgetting the incredible sound of an Aston Martin V12. That engine gives me goosebumps.
