Ways a Jeep is...

Ok, after one decent comment, I had to throw some other thoughts out there:

Ways a Jeep is like a woman
1) The more you spend on them, the better they treat you
2) They clean up nice, but are more fun when they're dirty
3) The more they Flex, the better
4) You never forget your first
5) You really should check what the ride is like before committing to one
6) The more time you spend under one, the better you know one
8) If you treat them good, they'll treat you good
9) You don't want a friend to borrow yours, he might throw a rod in one
10) They don't want you driving when you're drunk

And because there are female Jeepers, I had to (with some help from the wife) give another perspective:

Ways a Jeep is like a man:
1) The rougher the ride, the more fun you're having
2) They're better when they're not leaking
3) It's not the size, it's the driver
4) They're no fun when they're out of control
5) You'd rather they don't smell like beer
6) You really should check what the ride is like before committing to one
7) The more time you spend under one, the better you know one
8) If you treat them good, they may still break down at the worst possible moment
9) The easier to control, the better they are


Feel free to add your own.

I think women are the gender more likely to "break down," at least in my experience.

I've got one but I don't think it's quite family friendly enough... but the highlights include: a winch, being elbow deep in mud, a well-oiled midget and Bea Author...

Can I fit 33" x 12.5s?

I recently acquired a well used set of 33" x 12.5 mud terrain tires, i was wondering what the bare minimum lift required would be to have these functionally work on my xj, i also plan on cutting a inch off each side of my fender wells. I currently have a 2" lift, minus the fender wells not being cut, is this enough lift????

Thanks
Dustin

My wife was looking over my shoulder. I had already pushed my luck, wasn't about to start a war over it

Not the right place to put this and the search feature at the top of the page would help.
I seem to remember a diagram of tire and lift sizes that show what if any trimming is needed.

No. 9 on the womens list isn't fair, I think too many women try that one.
