Default I Love my JK! Do you?

We do this every now and then, but we need to spend a minute or so now and then to talk about what we LOVE about our Jks, and not always about problems or what we hate.

Actually, I dislike very little, and when I do dislike something, I remember it is a JEEP, and not a luxury automobile.

In the 6 years, I owned a Jag XJS, a 7 series BMW, an S Class Mercedes and a C-4 Corvette. I then bought a little TJ and got the bug. My JK is by far my favorite vehicle I have ever owned, and in fact have owned it now longer than any vehicle I have ever owned...Ever! (45 years old)

I love the off road performance, I love the look, I love the looks I get from young and old alike, I love driving with pride. I love being able to work on it myself. I love being able to fix anything that breaks, relatively cheap. Did I mention I love the looks and the off road erformance? I love the fact that I can mod the heck out of it and make it uniquely mine. I have never seen another modified the same as mine. I love gettgn in it every day to drive through LA traffic to my office. I always take a quick look back when walking away from it. I love the fact my girls call my JK the "Black Barbie" Jeep.

See my signature for most of my mods, ALL of which I did myself, and maybe a little help from my friends, including rebuilding some suspension after an accident.

Who else LOVES their JK and why???

I'll join in. I as well love my JK.
It's the freedom I feel in it. The confidence I have off road.
I as well have pretty near zero complaints, and have had zero problems with mine.

I love mine. The things are just awesome! I know its "Not Fast" or "Gets good Gas Mileage" but who cares! How many other vehicles can you take the doors and roof off? I have had no problems with mine...yet. Besides, If I break a part it is a great time to upgrade

I love that people say I love my jeep too much I love that when I'm reading up on how to fix, install or mod my jeep people just don't understand. I love that in aworld full of yuppie wannabees and luxury snobs I get in my almighty DD Jeep and drive anywhere. I love that now I've had one for sometime (also the longest I've owned a rig) I drive slower and more mellow I love knowing if it's the end of the world I'll be getting the furthest away from the shit along with all my other fellow jeepers easily I'll never not have a wrangler ever

As for me i have a love hate relationship with my jeep. But in the words for freddie mercury: (substitute jeep for car or alot of kittens will die)

The machine of a dream
Such a clean machine
With the pistons a pumpin
And the hub caps all gleam

When Im holdin your wheel
All I hear is your gear
When my hands on your grease gun
Oh it's like a disease son

Im in love with my car
Gotta feel for my automobile
Get a grip on my boy racer rollbar
Such a thrill when your radials squeal

Told my girl I'll have to forget her
Rather buy me a new carburetor
So she made tracks sayin
This is the end now
Cars don't talk back
They're just four wheeled friends now

When Im holdin your wheel
All I hear is your gear
When Im cruisin in overdrive
Don't have to listen to no run of the mill talk jive

Im in love with my car
Gotta feel for my automobile
Im in love with my car
String back gloves in my automolove
