Calling upon all Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator owners, please keep the tradition alive. The Jeep Wave is a real thing. https://blog.leithchryslerjeep.com/furthering-tradition-jeep-wave/
The Jeep culture is no longer what it used to represent. Aside from long standing owners and off-roaders, Jeeps today are “pavement princesses” driven by teen girls and the lacrosse mom / SAHM crowd as they see their Wrangler as the new “mini van”. Most have no idea what the TRAIL RATED badge represents, many of these Jeeps will see anything more than parking lot puddles. If you’re gonna drive a Jeep Wrangler or Gladiator, respect the lineage and understand the Jeep Wave and Jeepster credo “Jeeps helping Jeeps” and “Jeeps park next to other Jeeps”. Participate in #DuckDuckJeep because the Jeep community is unique in itself and traditions such as this are what separate Jeep owners from everyone else on the road today. For many years, a Jeep “on the side of the road” was helped by other Jeep drivers. It was not uncommon to see a few Jeeps pulled up behind the disabled Jeep to lend a hand. Let’s get back to that America!! The Jeep has been on American and foreign soil since 1941, not many other brands can say the same. Remember you buy a Jeep for smiles per mile, not the miles per gallon!! |
I own a 2010 Jeep Wrangler. But wut? |
| The Gladiator has to be one of the ugliest beasts on the road. |
| Jeeps are all junk. Never understood why people go nuts for them. |
You didn’t know about the wave? I’ve never owned one and I know about it. |
Ultimate upper-middle class male toy. |
I suppose so, but I’ve been to a few Jeep meetup events and there is a good contingent of female attendees. |
| I drive a wrangler. All those things are still happening. |
They are a huge waste of money for what you get. Love my wrangler but I’d buy a real truck. |
No, that’s a sports car. I’m a woman and own one. |
My Gladiator has all of the stuff your Wrangler does, plus the utility of a truck bed, how is that a waste? |
Because you can get much better specs in a regular truck for less. |
Ok, but then I’d need to buy a regular truck AND a Wrangler….. |
True. |
And? Sounds good to me. |
