I replied today in the what did you do to your XK thread today with what my XK did for me. So got me thinking maybe a thread on what our XK\WK have done for us. No time stamp like TODAY or anything but if your jeep took care of you or like me just seeing it calmed me down and made me feel better or got you out of a jam anything like that post up your story and pay homage to the JEEP!

I did nothing to my XK today more importantly what did my XK do for me today. It's been a rough 24hrs I haven't slept yet since I woke up Monday for work :( With out all the nasty details of me escapades I got done with what was stressing me out and every thing worked out in my favor and I was ready to go home and take a nap and the keys for her car were missing not my fault. So I had the wife come get me with the other set of keys. Standing there in 90 degree heat in my ACU's on top of it. I see my jeep come around the corner :) instant smile on my face and a sense of relief. She pulled in I jump in the passenger seat real quick and just felt all calm and all better again it was like I was already home. Needless to say I kicked her out of my jeep and back into her car and proceeded to take a 30 minuet nap in my Jeep :) Home is were you hang your hat they say and I hang a few hats in my Jeep. ..........................

My XK provided a new activity (Wheeling/camping) that myself, my fiance, and son + our two dogs can enjoy together. It has taken us to a ton of new places, and met a lot of new friends. The Jeep is now part of family and is a source of enjoyment, adventure, and fun.

In transit, should be here Fiday. Transport company picked it up Tuesday at 4pm which was a day early, and 6 days earlier than they originally said.
I know what I'll be doing friday night.
Might go thru the beer list and find something I haven't had yet in preparation for a long night of cleaning.

My XK has taken me and my family up , over the mountains and down to the surf. I have loaded it up with so much gear, inside and out , and taken it anywhere I want to go. It takes me through any snowstorm that comes my way while everyone is stranded at home shoveling the driveway, ( I dont shovel, I get in and drive out ).

My jeep allows me to show my son the outside world away from roads. I am handicapped & have a very hard time walking for more than maybe 20ft at a time & because of this I was unable to show him forests trails & take him camping & other locations that roads do not go to. I can't hike or ride a bike so this fulfills this for me & I LOVE MY Jeep

My Jeep has taken me to places I would of never had gone without it. It has helped me meet cool friends and given me a sense of freedom beyond roads. Thank you Mr. Jeep.

I know many of you saw me post this back in 2008 on the "other" site, but its still good.

Who can argue with a Jeep that sends your wife in the house to "Perform Service" when it puts it in the display? Thank you Jeep!

Your family & yourself are always welcome & that is for all of you.
So far there isn't any one from THIS group that I would not welcome into my house.

When it pours rain, as it did last night, my Jeeps give me the confidence to stay the course. To become a beacon on the road for those cars and vehicles that call themselves 'trucks' from having a hard time.
