Rule #1: Jeeps are not pretty. They are "sharp", "mean", "awesome" and "sweet" but they are not pretty.
Rule #2: Don't worry about it unless it clunks, squeeks, chatters or squeels for more than a week. Then it's probably a genuine problem to at least take a guess at what it might be and think about it once in a while.
Rule #3: Wheels go ON the obstacle, not around it!
Rule #4: Wave at other Wranglers. You own a Jeep, therefore you are required to be in a good positive mood every moment you are driving it. There is no yelling, crying, sobbing, weeping, anger or sadness in a Jeep.
Rule #5: Washing is purely optional.
Rule #6: Do NOT engage 4wd when on surfaces that will not give.
Rule #7: A Jeep is a Jeep. NOT A CAR!
Everytime you call it a car, God kills a kitten.
Rule #8: If you think you are about to roll-over, you still got a little ways to go. When your butthole begins to kiss your pants, THEN you're about to roll over.
Rule #9: Keep your thumbs outside of the steering wheel when driving through rough areas. You can find out the hard-way why to do this if you like.
Rule #10: The biggest of all: Tread lighty.
Have fun!

Add a couple extra rules to the top ten.
11) Don't go up a hill you will be afraid to back down.
12) Always try to go straight up hills.
13) The wheels belong underneath the vehicle, not on top of it.

I'm glad I read this somewhere before I went wheelin' the first time. That steering wheel sure could take of a thumb if it had the right mind about it, huh?
