me over the phone with advanced auto parts (favorite)

me- id like to check the availability of a np271 transfer case seal
them- ok sir, is that for a 2 wheel drive?
me- click.
that last one made me laugh. parts store people are stupid all they know is what the computer says. you can buy a part that has nothing at all to do with that and they will ask if its 2wd or 4wd. like what the hell it matter if its 2wd or 4wd i want a set of valve cover gaskets lmao

I got one a few days ago. Kid comes up and says "really nice truck! Are you selling it?" I said possibly. He says "do you have one of those gas tanks in here that make it roll coal?" I said no... And I'm actually not interested in selling this to you. Bye.

Do these count?

Guy: What year is that Chevy?
Me: It has "Jeep" stamped into the tailgate.
Guy: Jeep never made a truck.

Also this happened at a Jeep Jamboree a handful of years ago to some of us FSJ guys.
Guy: This is a Jeep show. Take those Bronco's back home.

LOVE IT!!!!!!!
