At my new work a lot of people ask me about my Jeep. The most common questions are:
Them: "You take that thing muddin???"
Me: "nope"
END.
Them: "What is that thing sticking out of your hood?"
Me: "A snorkel."
Them: "OHHHH. so i bet you get that thing in some deep mud right?"
Me: "Nope, never plan on using it esp. in mud... but is there if i need it for water crossing."
Them: "That's dumb snorkels are for muddin."
END.

BUT... there is one guy that fits the stereotype of the "Pennsylvania Mud Slayer"
Him: "How many inch tires you got on that thing??"
Me: "Excuse me? wut?
Him: " How many inch tires you got on that thing??"
Me: " You mean how tall are my tires?"
Him: "yeah"
Me: "33's"
Him: "AWW hell. Them are baby tires. I got 35's on my blazer"
Me: "Good for you."
END.

The next day in the lunch room.
Him: " What kind of tires you got on that thing??"
Me: "BfGoodrich Mud-Terrains"
Him: " Aww shit. Them are cheap tires."
Me: "what?"
Him: " Them are cheap. When I was looking for tires for my Blazer Bfg's were less than the Dick Cepek's I bought."
Me: "So you bought Dick Cepek's because they were more expensive than a BFGoodrich??"
Him: " Yep, I didn't want cheap tires on my mudder."
Me: "Spot on reasoning."
END.

The next day while I am working.
Him: " That jeep got any power?"
Me: " Not a lot of horsepower... But a lot of torque which is good enough for me."
Him: "Shit, My blazer got a 350 with(blah blah blah stereotypical list of 350SBC mods to a mudder) and about 400 horse."
Me: "Impressive. Is that on the butt dyno or actual numbers???"
Him: "wut?"
Me: "uh huh"
END.

Him: "What kinda gears you got in that thing?"
Me: " stock 3.55's."
Him: " I just put 3:73's in my blazer."
Me: "3:73's eh. why only 3:73's. that's got suck on 35's."
Him: " Hell I went from 4:56's to 3:73's so i can go faster."
Me: [chuckle]. i am putting 4.88's in my jeep.
Him: "HOLY HELL you are going to go about 45 MPH TOPS."
Me: " Right... I will roughly be around 2800-3000 Rpms at 65-70."
Him: "WUT?"
