You know you own/drive a XJ when...

Your girlfriend/wife calls you during a snowstorm and you have to push there car up a hill with your XJ
 
When you own Jeeps for parts that still run and drive and that your significant other does not know they exist because you bought them for the express reason they look very similar to past parts jeeps...
 
Its the only car you have ever wanted, and have drempt of owning one for years, and when you finally get it there are plenty of things wrong with it, but it was love at first drive. :)
 
When you can't talk jeeps with most wrangler guys because they think LP is better in the front, that's why their TJ came that way

When you wheel with you TJ buddies with more $ in bolt ons than your rig is worth, but are still open/open with a D35...

When your Dad asks you if there is anythin on your XJ you haven't taken apart/ rebuilt, you think long and hard and finally reply: well I haven't gotten too deep into the transmission...
 
... when your idle is too high, your AW4 is not shifting right, so you pull the fuse. None of this bothers you much. However, you spend days going back and forth to work trying to figure out what is different about your Jeep lately. If finally dawns on you that your shackle busings no longer squeak, and it brings a smile to your face.

When the section of frame that holds the steering gearbox is about to fall off, the ball joints are shot, the transmission is removing itself from the engine, the starter falls off, and the rear springs are in desperate need of being replaced, and you still refuse to sell it even though you were just laid off.
 
...when your rear hatch shudders so violently at 60 mph you're afraid the glass will blow out so you've resolved yourself to drive 58mph even on the freeway.
