I read the thread. (Hey, it rhymes!)

Sounds like the typical Commander bashing there... as in a shopping mall Jeep, etc.

Seems the only time any ''real Jeep'' owner is convinced the XK isn't just a ''wet grass 4x4'' is when they see them in places like Imogene pass.

Or... when a dozen of us XK's were coming out of Yankee Boy Basin during the 2009 Camp Commander in Silverton CO. I went past a guy sitting in a CJ, and he loudly exclaimed the Lord's name as we went past. I'm guessing he was completely shocked at the parade of ''shopping mall Jeeps'' coming back down from the top.
