"You know you are a wheeler when..."

  • Got this from another JEEP site.


    Subject: You Know you're a wheeler when......


    - You'll stop and look at any old rusty heap thinking "Parts Vehicle....."


    - Your rig has more [farm/boat/military/other vehicle manufacturer] equipment on it than OEM parts


    - The weatherman says "Stay in, it's dangerous" and you think "Time to go 'wheeling!"


    - You're happy that you can't use 1st gear on the street.


    - A military convoy passes by and you only look at the axles, tires and antennas


    - You take your SO out to look at new home construction sites so you can drive on the unfinished roads.


    - You have enough straps, chains, rope, etc. in your rig to keep the Queen Mary docked during a hurricane.


    - You can break down on the road, diagnose/fix the problem, and get back on the road without calling AAA.


    - You break down on the road, fix the problem, and get back on the road on a regular basis. :)


    - The AAA guy breaks down, you stop and fix his problem and get back on the road.


    - You have a brand new set of tires, but you keep looking at the tire ads, anyway.


    - You'll drive 2 days at 500 miles per day so you can spend 2 more days driving 3 miles per day.


    - You get really steamed because you spent over an hour to go the 10 miles home from work on Friday, but are grinning ear to ear because you just spent 6 hours going 4 miles on your favorite trail on Saturday!


    - Your CB has never been on Ch. 19, only Ch 4.


    - You set up your rig to have a top speed of 65-70 mph - on purpose.


    - When you pull up next to a Corvette, all the 'Vette driver can see is tires and whatever is on the other side of you.


    - You challenge the 'Vette driver to a race... if you can pick the course.


    - Author's contribution: You spend three hours mowing the lawn contemplating how your riding lawnmower would look/handle with 3" lifted 4 link coilover suspension, ATV tires and having the engine bored/honed/blueprinted/balanced ... does Jacobs make an ignition for Briggs and Stratton? what about a K&N air filter?
