You might be a Jeeper.....

[Cotter_v2.0]

OK...this is a spin on the jeep questionaire thread with a "you might be a redneck" twist...

Ok...Here's one...

You might be a Jeeper if.....

You've said "I can handle skipping this month's credit card bill...the new lift is WAY more important"

You know what a snatch block is...and it isn't inappropriate...

You get bored driving on pavement.....

You aim for the mud puddles.....

you know a high flow cat is a piece of your exhaust and not a hyperactive feline....

You'd rather spend your money on an intake upgrade rather than eat.....

You never have said....I don't think I can make it through that.....

You have over 100 feet of tow straps....

I could keep going....

Have some fun...KEEP IT CLEAN!!!! (I'm already on Jason's $hit list!!!) icon_smile_wink.gif

Keep on Jeepin on....

[Jeepin Jason]

graemlins/rotflmao.gif Yeah, I guess some of those are for more "experienced" Jeepers. icon_smile_wink.gif

A York is a type/brand of belt-driven air compressors (usually used for A/C compressors) commonly swapped into Jeeps for high-output OBA (on-board air) systems. Check out http://www.onboardair.com for more info. icon_smile_wink.gif

</font> you have anough spare parts laying around to build another jeep</font> you own torx bits</font> you hold on to broken parts as momentos of past excursions</font> you've heard the sound of an axleshaft snapping.</font> you have dents in your floorpan from a driveshaft flopping around</font> You look at other vehicles on the street as donors for a good cause</font> the guys at napa know you by your first name</font> your local junkyard has you on a mailing/call list</font> the service techs at the dealer**** hate you
</font>and finally. . . .
You get sick of fighting for a parking space in your own driveway, and let's just say, parking in your spot now requires 4-low (or a set of boggers, for Nate)

[Cobound]

The dealer****!

Man do I love that one!! graemlins/icon_puke.gif is what I think of them!

You Cotter, you're the man!!

Laytah,
Bri

[MJMA]

Halez yeah I am LMAO. There are like two that don't apply to me, one there are dents in my floor pan but not from a driveshaft, and the service techs don't hate me at the jeep dealership, probably only because I spend so much money there and I am friends with probably the hottest chic in the state and she works there.

All others I am guilty as charged.

I got a few

-You think body damage just adds character
-You can tell after a quick glance if someone is a poser or they actually wheel their 4x4
-You would rather drive a jeep from 20+ years ago than drive the latest SUV that is "In Style!!"

Oh,
you look for a trail to work.
You tow your Jeep w/ a Jeep.
You own more than one, two...(I've got 3)

anyway..........

[roger]

if you are depressed because you couldnt see your jeep for a few days.

if you have ever spoken the words...I bet I could run over that ricer

if you look back at the other jeeps you have had to sell or put to rest and get depressed.

if you have ever looked at jeep with 22" rims and a fin and wanted to beat the owner senseless

if you understand the saying "breathe through your nose, mud offers very little in nutritional value"

[Ryan, aka: CheapXJ.com]

mud with a rich iron content can actually offset the effects of anemia. . .

mud is also good for the skin, and it's the only thing aside from corn that looks the same comin out as it does goin in icon_smile_big.gif

"if you are depressed because you couldnt see your jeep for a few days."

haven't seen my jeep in 41 days :(

luckily though, i've got pictures. . . and graemlins/jeepincom2.gif icon_smile_big.gif

[Nate Spear]

1337j33px0r, you are so true, my neighbor actully got mad at me the other day she said "can you move the pile of mud **** that is sitting there? It is nasty and I am trying to sell my house!" I replied "Umm, ok" (I had tears streaming down my eyes cuz she called my jeep a 'pile of mud ****') I think they hate me.

[Cable XJ]

There, there; Nate. It's gonna be okay. Maybe the new neighbors will own Jeeps. Or have kids that own Jeeps. Or, just maybe, if you're really, really lucky.... an 18 year-old daughter who looks hot and drives her own muddy Jeep.
graemlins/jawdrop.gif

[fuzzy]

Dude, If i had a neighbor come out and tell me that i'd be parking the thing DIRECTLY in front of their house.... everyday, with a new coat of mud everyday, and try to knock as much mud off near/on their lawn/driveway.... hell no don't come out and talk crap on my vehicle and ask me to move it.... lol

I don't get annoyed, I get pissed. :mad:

[Nate Spear]

Don't get my hopes up guys... the neighbors actully already drove jeeps... the daughter (who was hot) drove a jeep cherokee limited, and the mom drove a WJ, and the dad drove an audi. I thought they were cool untill the other day when they asked me to move. I should have takin a poop in a sling shot and launched it at the house.

[Cable XJ]

Nate, it's gonna take weeks of Jeepin' to rid myself of that mental image....
:eek:

[XJ Fanatic]

you might be a jeeper if you are sitting here typing with your hands covered in engine grud.

[MJMA]

Hey man, screw them, its your street, you can park where you like. I used to have a loser neighbor and when they bought another house in a rich neighborhood and whenever they had people over lookin at the house I felt the need to tool around my front yard on my dirtbike, KDX 200 w/ fmf fatty and turbine core 2. They ended up selling it to some wicked cool people.

[xjnick]

lay a thickie on thier front lawn, ( with the jeep not your behind)

[Nate Spear]

Ya next time they have people over I will go out and if they are having people that look like rich guppies over I'll throw on 2 spare tires and see how big of burnouts i can do in my driveway.

You might be a Jeeper if...
- you have your house built with oversized garage doors because your Jeep no longer fits in a normal garage... icon_smile_wink.gif
- you have to wait for the tire store to order you a new tire(s) because no one carries tires that big in stock...
- what you talk about lockers you don't mean those smelly things you kept your books in back in school...
- the people in the tool section of SEARS know you by name...
- you've ever returned a pitman arm puller to Autozone because you broke it... (did this 3x once... damned YJ's!) icon_smile_wink.gif
- you understand the following acronyms and use them on a regular basis... SYE, CV, RE, BPE, LSD, IFS, SFA

[ct90YJ]

You know your a jeeper when you start selling jeep parts to pay for more important jeep parts.

Just sold my top for $250 graemlins/icon_beerchug.gif

[Ryan, aka: CheapXJ.com]

Get your jeep all muddy, and train it to clean itself. It takes a little work, but eventually you can achieve results similar to this

Shake shake shake (video) (http://home.ptd.net/~naumiler/shake.mpeg)

Getting back to the original topic. . .

You have a collection of Jeep related pictures, videos, documents, books, magazines and jokes. . .

A classic.

three engineers were standing in the bathroom at the urinals doing, well, what you do at a urinal. Anyway, one was a ford engineer, one was a GM engineer, and one was a Jeep engineer.

The ford engineer finished up, walked over to the sink, washed his hands meticulously, and unrolled a bunch of paper towel and dried his hands off completely. He then said "at ford, we're very thorough in everything we do"

The GM engineer then finished his business, washed his hands, and pulled out one sheet of paper towel, and dried every inch of hands, but used up every last bit of the paper. he then said "At GM we are thorough and efficient"

The jeep engineer sighed, walked by the other two guys, over to the door and as he was opening it, he said.

"At Jeep, we don't piss on our hands" and walked out smiling.

Awww this one really hit home!
My first Jeep was a 1990 YJ, it was the biggest piece of **** ever but I loved it so much!
It was white with a black hard top and trim, only had a bikini top and deck cover for the summer. Had to put a tarp over it when it rained and it had an oil leak the whole friggen time I had it (1.5 yrs).
I had decided I was going to buy it at the end of my lease but that changed quickly about 2 weeks before the end. I had put $4,000 into it in the year and a half just fixing it when it broke and just after getting the rear main seal fixed I still had no oil pressure. I decided I couldn't deal with the constant problems anymore and got myself a 1993 Grand Cherokee. I hated the idea of driving a "prissy" jeep but I had to do it.
When I went to pick it up at the dealer I literally started crying because I didn't want to give back my YJ, my leasing manager thought I was nuts!

4 yrs later with the GC and I get my Brand spanking new TJ on Monday!
WooooHoooo! Back in a real Jeep baby! icon_smile_big.gif

PS. I found out a week later I had blown the engine in the YJ! oops!

If your daily driver has 38 inch boggers.

If you question other Jeep owners as to why they don't take it offoading.
If at school your known as 'the kid with the big a$$ Jeep'.
If you can spot your rig towering over any other vehicle in the parking lot.
If breakage is an every day thing.
If your basement/garage is cluttered with misc. Jeep parts.

you know you're a Jeeper when your parents home owners' association send them a letter saying saying that their sons aren't welcome in the nieghborhood any more because they work on their Jeep too much.

[XJAndy]

Ok i am putting my 2 cents in
You might be a jeeper if you won't buy your girlfriend of 3 years an ingagement ring because you need a new lift for you jeep

You might be a jeeper if your girlfriend won't let you driver her jeep cause she knows what you will do.

You might be a jeeper if you get questioned and a dirty look if you wash your girlfriends jeep (for no apparent reason)

You might be a jeeper if your girlfriend drives a jeep!

The guys in Advance Auto Parts know you by name.
You accidently park on snow banks during the winter.
