Reason Number (5): They love the history and character of something so charming, and yet rugged as the CJ...and they also can't afford a new Wrangler.



Reason Number (4): They like working on something simple and straight-forward without all of the computer driven, sensor laden, high tech electronics and mechanics of newer Jeeps...that is until they realize the old CJ can barely break 45 mph without frying the motor...all of the weatherstripping is rotted...and, the tub and frame are 40% rusted out.



Reason Number (3): They have ideas of turning the old CJ5 or CJ7 into a super off road, go-anywhere, flame-throwing, high-performance, monster machine...that is until they realize that the $328.42 they have to their name will only get them 3 used mud tires...and a Coca-Cola.



Reason Number (2): Their girl will think they are macho by driving a rugged Jeep CJ...until she rides in it the first time...and the wind messes up her hair...and the mud and debris off of your huge lugged tires gets all over her leather Armani jacket and Gucci high-heeled pumps.



Reason Number (1): And Finally some guys own a Jeep CJ because they think the "CJ" badge stands for "Cool Jock".
