"It’s A Jeep Thing"… I used to think I wanted a Jeep—but I’m clearly not a "Jeep" person. 😅...

Half the statements are wrong anyway.

You got to have money to run a jeep now.

Maybe in the 50s they weren't so expensive. All of what they showed I've done in a Chevy 4wd.

Heck some of it in a Chevy prism front wheel drive. 🤣 Yeah I did get stuck a couple of times in the prism. 🫤

It wasn't built for ruts on muddy dirt roads.

Which made me get two different Chevy 4wds. I never got stuck in a Chevy 4wd. Try to put a 2 ton roll-off in that jeep! 😈

My first car was a 1968 Wagoneer, which was made by Kaiser, before American Motors bought them out - I paid $600 for it! If only I knew it could have been so fun. instead of working and going to school every day....

The old jeeps are cool. I loved top off, shifting gears, bouncing on the beach. But people go way too far with the jeep love now that you can buy them with automatic transmissions and regular body styles.

I owned a couple, rebuilt one from the ground up. They are way overrated. Uncomfortable, lousy fuel economy, and maintenance hogs. They still get stuck when traveling in the rough stuff.
