Default I miss my JK

A week today that my JKs been at the Body Shop. They have me driving a P.o.S. Chevy Colorado. I feel like my butt is dragging on the asphault and it sounds like a rubber band engine. I really hope they finish up this week, I can't take the humiliation any longer! (However, it is better than the Neon they first offered me).

must be rough, it feels like a chore to me taking my car for service, and feel like not driving when my lady in black (my JK) is powdering her nose in the service center, but that's a few days, a week must be deadly

Talking Feeling your pain

My Jeep was in the shop for a day and a half, but I was in a PT crusier. Well it was that or a ford focus, you get it.


It will make you love your Jeep more.

Be strong. your Jeep misses you too... and dirt, Jeeps love dirt.

That was the kind of junk I got to drive when I travelled for business. But, at the time I didn't get to come home to a Jeep. It made me hate driving.

I just talked to the body shop... it's been 9 days since she's been gone and they told me it will "possibly be done early next week." The parts came in this morning; they have to install them and then paint and clearcoat it.

I feel like less of man driving around this little Chevy pickup. I can't take it any more. (but, like I said before, I guess its better than a Neon or a PT Loser).

My dad has a 5cyl colorado. Now all that talk about our 3.8 being slugish sounds like a joke. Those trucks can't get out of their own way. Why is it in the shop?

That's what I'm in... a Chevy Colorado. It's brutal.

It's in the shop as she was a victim of a Hit and Run. https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/jk-talk-26/hit-run-25802/
