How to tell if you have the Jeep Fever...

-You look for Jeeps in movies and TV shows and try to identify the model and date of manufacture.
-You set-aside quality time to be spent with your Jeep, and spend more money on it than on your girlfriend.
-You have a replacement part in your garage for every drive component on the Jeep
-Your "Parts Dept." is on blocks behind your house.
-You can be found in the driveway lying under your jeep at 12:50 am
-You want to take things apart and rebuild them, even if they are not broken.
-You complain about everything, but smile when you fix everything yourself.
-Every page of your repair manual has greasy fingerprints.
-You remember part numbers easier than your spouse’s birthday
-You have to fix almost everything yourself because no one has ever worked on a WWII army vehicle.
-You get in your vehicle and are surprised if all of the instruments work.
-You consider starting a vehicle five times in any given minute a routine procedure.
-You can diagnose a "funny" sound coming from the engine compartment and immediately know how much it will cost to fix and exactly what tools you'll need to fix it
-You know a minimum of three long distance numbers to Military Jeep Parts businesses by heart.
-When you have all your credit card numbers memorized
-Your credit card bill usually has more than 6 Jeep related items on it.
-Your wallet is always empty.
-You are constantly broke or soon to be broke.
-You have the monetary equivalent of a Mercedes sedan invested, but your vehicle still looks like it came out of a crate you bought for $50.
-You own a vehicle that weighs 1000 pounds more than when it came off the assembly line because of all the accoutrements you’ve added.
-You name your Jeep
-You're constantly getting passed on the highway and don’t mind.
-When you use your ice scraper on the inside of your windshield.
-You get more heat from holes in the floorboards than through the heater vents. Heater vents… What heater vents?
-Radio... what radio?
 Every time you see a Jeep on the highway... you yell "JEEP!"
- Your friends get fumed off that you can make any parking spot, and you can turn around in the smallest of places.
- You have a blanket draped over your roll cage to hold the very little heat that you have in the cab...
...with that said...
- Heat? What's heat?
- You notice a significant difference in acceleration and handling after you wash the mud out of your frame and wheel wells.
- You go mudding 2hrs after you wash the mud out of your frame and wheel wells because you don't like how it accelerates or handles.
- You know what "I like em topless and dirty" means...
- You laugh at the first time Jeep rider as they clench the door handle and dash trying to stop from bouncing out of the seat.
- You avoid all non-closable drinks.
- Your cup holders are full of nuts and bolts that you keep finding in random places.
- You have a step ladder for the short so they can climb into your Jeep.
- Your rims and tires cost more than your Jeep.
- You wave at every Jeep driver on the highway.
- When you see a shiny, clean, city driven Jeep you complain about how a waste of a perfectly good Jeep it is.
-you own 7 different tops for your jeep and never put one on.
-your speed dial is loaded with jeep shop numbers.
-before going anywhere you do a walk around checking for loose bolts and fasteners
-you think cat fur on the seats is a seat cover
-you have to jump past your rock rails when getting out to avoid a dirt mark on your pants
-all your pants have dirt marks from your rock rails stained in
-you forgot how to reconnect your sway bars last year.
-instead of always reconnecting your sway bar you just took it off.
-whats a sway bar? oh, I use that as a pry bar.
-you have a bigger tool collection for the jeep than you have in the garage.
-when you walk into the jeep store, the owner calls his wife to make reservations at the best restraunt in town.
-you read stupid stuff like this.
 you tell your friends and family, all you want for birthday and christmas presents is something for your Jeep.
-When you go into Wal-Mart the first thing you do is go to the toy section to look for Jeep Hot Wheels, models, and other related toys.
-wrecking countless cd players and stereo parts while washing the inside of your vechicle with pressure hose
