You Know You Have A Real Jeep (Are A Real Jeeper) If . . .
You use a hose to clean the inside and the outside
You take your date home early on a Saturday night so you can work on your Jeep
You determine that the best route from Point A to Point B is through a rock pile or over a mountain
You call a scratch or a dent, a beauty mark
You roll it over and don't get upset
Your Mom or your sister can't get in without help
You judge every hill you see by how much fun it would be to climb
You feel nauseous when you see a RAV-4 or a Chevy Tracker
You get custom pin-striping from trail brush
A low-rider Jeep pulls up next to you, and you want to get out and slap the driver
It takes more than 6 hours to get donuts
You pull into the unplowed parking spots on snowy days
You take your friends wheeling and they say "What trail; I don't see a trail!"
You've been forced to add TJ, CJ, YJ, and XJ to your spell-checker
You can see OVER a Suburban
You carry emergency supplies and clothing because you never know where you will end up
Your Nerf bars battle rocks and win
It rains and you don't care that your top and doors are off
You drive around to look at Christmas lights . . . topless
You change your plugs in the parking lot at work on a break
Your "Parts Department" is on blocks behind your house
You take your Mom wheeling and she has to help you flip the Jeep back onto its wheels again
You use an ice-scraper on the inside of the windshield
You get more heat from holes in the floorboards than through the heater vents
Every page of your repair manual has greasy fingerprints
Passengers scream "DON'T ROLL IT!" when you take them wheeling
You spend more time under your Jeep than under your significant other
Winter comes and your can't remember where you left your top
You spend more on car washes than on insurance
Even worse, the car wash won't let you in
You fix almost everything yourself
You feel sorry for someone in a $60,000 Toyota Land Cruiser
You have the phone numbers for all of your favorite mail-order accessory houses memorized
You have all your credit card numbers memorized
You slam the door and chunks of dried mud crumble to the ground
You get asked to pick up your co-workers in a snowstorm . . . and get paid for it
Your wife/girlfriend refuses to get in it
You are the only one on the street who doesn't plow their driveway
You are dating the Service, Parts, or Sales Manager at your local Jeep dealership
You try to run the plow trucks off the road when it snows heavily
You can't hear your $200 stereo over the howl of your tires on the highway
You have a high-water mark INSIDE the Jeep
After your answer to "What did you do this weekend?", the next question is always: "And you do this for fun, right?"
Your criteria for selecting a "significant other" includes auto repair skills--air tools optional
You plan your wedding around the Club's trail ride schedule
You save broken Jeep parts as "momentos"
You know the exact story behind every one (see above)
When someone refers to "The Good Book", you think of "The Jeep Owner's Bible"
You keep trying to convince your significant other to allow you to remove the doors on the family minivan
Your Jeep no longer fits in the garage
You always have your drinks "on the rocks"
You think that any tire that isn't waist high looks like a bagel
You can't take a girl, who's wearing a dress, on a date without carrying along a set of steps
You can't sneak into church late because the engine is too loud
You know your ring gear size, but not your wedding ring size
All of your shirts have some sort of grease or oil stains, or battery acid holes, from not planning on working on your (or a friend's) Jeep
You have a dirt berm at the end of your driveway from the mud that got washed off of your Jeep
You think that an "airline" is something that connects your differential to your air compressor
You stop trying to get the dirt out from under your fingernails
You buy parts for your Jeep instead of food for your family
You spend Super Bowl Sunday turning wrenches rather than watching the game
Your e-mail address refers to your Jeep rather than you
Your garage holds more Jeeps than your house has bedrooms
You have enough spare parts to build another Jeep
You have Jeep parts in your cubicle at work
You have to wash your hands before you go to the restroom
You carry along enough tools to supply a small garage
You nickname your Jeep after the noises it makes or it's most damaging trail accident
You carry along a replacement part for every drive component on the Jeep
You can air up your tires without stopping at a gas station
You're constantly getting passed on the highway
The Service Department has to let all of the air out of your front tires in order to reach the engine
Your wallet is always empty!
