Since we are a bunch of mall crawlin elitists, maybe we should have our own thread: ;)

I'm sure there is a mall around here somewhere.....

Of course my favorite post on this board is from this thread:
http://www.virtualjeepclub.com/showthread.php?p=41415#post41415
I tried to hide it for years, first with a CJ-7 then with a TJ Sport. But I never felt right, I always felt like I was living someone elses life. When I started looking at Rubicons in magazines I told myself, "I'm just exploring, this doesn't mean anything." Then I went for a test drive. The 31" MTRS felt so good underneath me purring along with the 4.10 gears. My shame was quickly replaced with pride. I accepted that I always was a Rubicon man and was finally able to admit it. When I brought the Rubi home, sure it was awkward at first. My dad telling me I was no son of his, my mom quietly drinking vodka, muttering that this was her fault, she shouldn't have driven me around in the Grand Cherokee so much. It was tense for a while, but they eventually came around. My dad finally came out to see the Rubi, I remember him asking, "Well couldn't you at least pull off the stickers so the neighbors don't see?" No, I couldn't remove the stickers, because underneath that 4:1 t-case would still be turning. I am not ashamed. Then he got worried that I'd start hanging out with other Rubicons, using my factory lockers with reckless abandon. "No worries dad" I said, I still like the CJ's and the Sports. I think that caused him more worry, I was swinging with both crowds. Last weekend I hit the trail with 7 other Rubi's , it was almost like a parade, a Rubicon pride parade. Sure, people still laugh and point their fingers at me, but it's cool. I am who I am, a Rubicon owner.
So, with great pride here is my Rubicon. See you at the mall.

If you're talking about my Jeep, it is a tarp. We were getting some good thunderstorms while running the Rubicon trail and we put that on to keep all of our gear dry.

About a week after I bought her I had a 3" lift and 33's put on.
I thought I would try something really crazy "Lawn Crawling" :D
My spotter was really good and I did not get one grass stain!
Then I thought about the sprinklers coming on and left otherwise I would have needed to use the emergency list on the board for help! :eek:
http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff17/Desert_Rat_photos/DSC04347.jpg
Well, after a couple of mods I thought I could take a shortcut to the mall one day and....got lost! :eek:
http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff17/Desert_Rat_photos/desertrat2.jpg
While trying to find the mall I really messed up on this turn and put wipes on my mall list to clean my self up!
http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff17/Desert_Rat_photos/DSC03355.jpg
So after a minor break down I finally found my way to the mall! Boy I will NEVER do that again! :D

I know the Malls where I live aren't quite as hard-core as what you guys have... but I've found a few potholes in the lot!
I think body lift & disco's were the only mods I had at the time
