You know you are a Jeepaholic when...

(I stole this thread from another Jeep forum, hope they won't mind)
You know you are a Jeepaholic when - u get up in the morning and skip
eating all day to finish ur next mod



Or- you pawn your wedding ring to buy more jeep parts

[ian]

i have posted this before.. but here it is..




...seeing a Jeep in a car lot gives you that same feeling as seeing homeless dogs at an animal shelter. You think to yourself, "If I had the money I would take you home and we could be best friends".

...you've often wondered if your vehicle could climb that fence faster than you could. So then you tried. And you found out fences fall over. But now you've got a great story.

...the words dirty and topless turn you on. Just not sexually.

...when you bought your vehicle you thought to yourself how great it would look as you stripped it. Instead of thinking how great it would look as you added stuff to it. Then you added stuff to it. Not for looks though, instead for function.

...seeing dogs hang their heads out the car window makes you think to yourself, "I know the feeling".

...when you see someone at a stoplight put their sunroof down you get out and take your entire roof off just so they'll be jealous.

...seeing Jeeps nicer than yours doesn't cause envy or jealousy, but instead causes you to root them on.

...you feel a little hurt inside when other Jeepers don't wave back. But you instantly forgive them knowing they must not have seen you. Oh well, you'll get the next one.

...getting stuck isn't an inconvenience. Its an adventure you can't wait to tell others about.

...you felt like an idiot when you bought your first one from a dealership as you asked which ones are four wheel drive.

...you've ever stood up in your vehicle as you were driving it just because you could.

...you keep full pvc waterproof rain suits in your vehicle.

...the first ever strapless bikini you bought wasn't a swim suit. However, it did have a lot to do with the beach.

...seeing convertible sports cars with powered tops makes you think to yourself these two things... 1. "pansy!" and 2. "I've got roll bars, beeyotch"

...you ripped out the carpet on your floorboard cuz it started to stink after that first good rain.

...there's no point in washing your vehicle. You just do it cuz you can leave the windows down while you rinse it.

...you've apologized to a first time passenger because of how dirty your interior was. Then rescinded that apology as you thought to yourself that they should be thanking you for the experience.

...you've almost slapped a girl for complaining about her hair getting messed up on that first (and only) date.

...when you're in other cars you roll the windows down even when its raining or freezing cold cuz you feel like your cheating on your vehicle.

...you keep heavy duty trash bags in your glove box for emergency seat cover up.

...you've forgotten what its like to have heat or air conditioning.

Well, that's about all I could think of. If you guys like this then please pass it on.

Dirty and Topless,
-Gunner

Ok here's the best additions I could find. Keep adding but only good ones. NO arguements this time.

...when you take on dents and your proud of what you've done..and brag about it.

... you look at a hill or a rock ledge and say, "Yeah, I can make it."

... gas mileage? whats that!?

... You could have money...but as soon as you get enough, you buy something else for your Jeep

... XJ, YJ, CJ, TJ, WJ, ZJ, they all mean something to you.

... lowriders really are moving speed bumps.
