I know, nobody can ever figure out how to open the doors! How hard can it be?

Mine is the tail gate rattle on my 00. I guess that is more annoying than anything else. I should work on that.

my 4wd shifter does the same thing! i thought my linkage was rly loose... but i discovered its a bad u-joint gotta fix it before the snow comes!

and i like my XJ because its got a good sound system to cover up the rattle of the back seat. and it rides like a tank cause of the crappy shocks, but the seats are so comfy is makes up for it

How people "Request" to have their windows put down, or back up. They simply click the lever in the desired direction, and I take a quick look to see if said window is in the up or down position, and then I adjust accordingly...hahaha, that and my front driver side speaker coming on or off when I go over bumps.

Yep...everyone insists the doors are locked when they aren't.

My favorite "quirk" is all the little techniques I've devised for shifting while having my hands filled due to a lack of cup holders.

of course how it takes 2 cranks to start and all the spoiled kids in the parking lot at school think my jeep broke!

also, how sometimes the dash will just creak and pop out of nowhere and scare anyone who is riding in it and how no one can open the door! theft deterrent!
