Ya know you are a jeep addict when:
« on: November 16, 2012, 09:25:38 AM »
On the other site we have had quite a few great contributions to a thread about jeep addicts.....so I figured some of us here could add some more good ones....


Here's a couple to start us off...


You know you are a jeep addict when:

Small kids point at you and say "There's that jeep guy, Mom!"
The counter people at Oreillys let you look up your own parts...
You have Walcks on speed dial.
Neighbors don't even look up whan you drive by with a full trailer anymore.

When you sit for a hour in a 40 degree garage looking at a newly sandblasted frame!!!

Your best jeans are coverd in grease and oil, and your wife understands

You are the only guy driving your jeep on the lake, in March

Comfortable means the wind in your hair, in February

You spend your entire vacation rebuilding your Carter and re-timing your Willys.  And at the end of it all, you proclaim that it was the best vacation ever!!! :)

Cleaning gear oil off the garage floor brings a smile to your face.

Checking the 3A, 2A, G503, WillysMJeeps, EWillys web sites...4 times a day. :o

You use your Jeep to get the paper every morning and every other local trip you can think of every day.

Every time the car club guys see you they smile and ask "Is your Jeep done yet?" :'(

You get a little giddy when the UPS driver raises an eyebrow and asks "More Jeep parts?"

You can look at a 700 hp big block chevy motor, stick your nose in the air and turn around and say "Still not a flat head" and walk away.

Everyone at the parts store laughs when you come in.

The guys at NAPA know the name of your jeep, and ask about it every time you stop in...

You know you are a jeep addict when you refuse to read threads like this because you are afraid of what you might learn about yourself.

Your home recycling bin contains more crumpled newspaper from Bowmanstown, PA than of your own local paper.

When you're 2 years into what's apparently going to be a 4 year restoration ( originally going to be 1 year) and you find yourself saying phrases like "next time I'll..." or "my next jeep will be..."  

I'm sick, I need help :-X

In the world of addiction, isn't admitting this the first step to recovery?? �I bet most of us have had to admit this to ourselves at some point. �I know I have.
