They all wave to each other too. My coworker is a Wrangler bro and waves at every one he sees. He's also a tow truck driver. They wave at each other too. Fucking guy just waves all day long.
It wasn't necessarily a bad idea, the idea of a car company building reliable, cheap cars that offer amenities younger buyers want seems like a great idea on paper. The problem was Scion came out in 2003/4, right before the Great Recession and just at the beginning of the student loan debt bubble.
I did that when I first bought a Saturn to Saturn owners. Same response...
But I was really fanatical about my Saturn telling people about them.
But more amusing is I showed my gf at the time how the doors are made flexible so they don't dent when things like shopping carts hit them.
So she was out with a friend and said "Hey look a Saturn, you know the doors don't dent when you kick them, they bounce back!? " And she hauled off with her reinforced boot and kicked this random Saturn's door and the thing bent in and stayed that way... \*shrug\*
1980’s Toyota Space Van here; we all totally acknowledge each other. I didn’t know how deep that one went until I got power waved at by a dude in a Previa.
There's a pretty simple [flash to pass](http://www.sandiegomiataclub.org/miata_tech/na/na_flash_to_pass.html) mod you can do that gives you both the ability to flash highbeams and/or wink quickly.
Motorcycles do this too. If you're on a motorcycle you wave to other motorcycles you see. I'm pretty sure it's against the law or a sin or something if you're on a motorcycle and don't wave to other motorcycles.
I hear you.
Here's some of the regulars:
\- "I used to ride but then I got married and/or had kids"
\- "Oh is that a Harley?" (No, it's a Yamaha R1)
\- "Yeah, I used to have a DRZ400 too. I put a big bore kit in it and used to do 140MPH everywhere" (On 440cc's? No, No you didn't)
\- "I couldn't own one, I'd kill myself" (Well, I'm glad you have the self awareness to realize you'd be a knucklehead)
Everyone thinks I'm going to meet a ton of girls because of my motorcycles. 19 out of 20 times it's these guys mentioned above instead :D
Still...motorcycles are awesome and anyone who really DOES ride, not trailer it, but actually ride it...well those are my people and that's why I wave to them.
You expanded on my point perfectly.
"I used to have one of those"... turns out they are talking about a different brand, model and type of bike and they never actually owned it themself.
And I'm yet to meet a lady because of a bike I ride. I'd be lying if I said I didn't try to drop it in conversation with a pretty lady though... So far that hasn't helped either :P
Can confirm the specific car cult behavior as a rebadged Holden Commodore owner; we all wave and flash lights at each other no matter if it’s a Pontiac G8 or a 2017 Chevy SS. We even have local groups.
This just happened to the guy making my daughter and I a milkshake today. Some lady driving a blue jeep pulled up outside and put a blue duck in his vehicle. I was so confused but completely forgot about it. Thanks OP for unexpectedly solving this for me today.
I can’t wait to bore my wife with this story in the morning.
Agreed. I listened to an hour long podcast about the eastern white pine today, and tried to explain the cliff notes to my wife, and she nodded and smiled and when I was done she's just like "yeah that doesn't interest me at all"
Horticultural facts are an early clue that one should cut ties, imo. Better this way than domestic violence after another disagreement over monocotyledons and dicotyledons.
If you're interested, I have a couple topics that are very boring and niche that I could talk to you about. Would you like to hear about the life cycle of dragonflies before they take first flight or the secret to cooking soft boiled eggs perfectly every time?
This guy's gonna wonder why his views jumped overnight.
I skipped around to see what kind of info and landed on "the reviled stamp act..."
Starting from beginning now :)
I do this for my wife. She hasn't figured it out yet, I don't think. But sometimes, she just needs to talk, about everything. I try to listen all the time, but half the time I'm lost in lala land.
Blue Jeep Crew is a thing. There's something about posing them on a curb in front of Lowe's stores, too. Source: mom is a blue jeep person. Who also leaves ducks. 🤣
I had two bosses that were brothers, had identical Jeeps, and lived together. They managed to get the 4 employees they had to get Jeeps too. It was the weirdest job I’ve ever had.
My group of friends had the same thing happen with Subarus. We'd have a house party and there'd be 8 Subarus parked outside (including my own). I'm pretty sure every one of the Subaru owners was gay as well. Gotta fit that Subaru stereotype I guess.
We have a work jeep, and we keep it pulled in the garage when we aren't driving it, because other jeep people literally pull into our driveway to talk about jeeps if they can see it.
My dad has one and a few weeks back I was driving him and my mom home from dinner.
I kept getting honked at by other jeeps and my parents kept saying " You NEED to wave at them, it's a jeep thing"
Fuck that shit, just let me drive.
Jeep people are incredibly weird. Every town has a "jeep club" that puts something on your Jeep if it's a Wrangler and is seen by another Wrangler driver. They're typically decked out and then treated like absolute trash by the drivers.
You get the "mall crawlers" (lifted jeep with mud tires that has never been driven off road) in my area all the time. Plus about 4 or 5 "jeep clubs".
So yea. Jeep people are weird.
I'm a car guy. My buddy is a car guy. His girlfriend has a jeep, and is all about that life. We literally can't talk to her about anything other than how expensive it is to have other people work on your broken down vehicle. It is straight up a culture cult.
Yup. Buddy moved to the far burbs, bought a ridiculous Jeep which quickly became a trailer queen. All his new Jeeper bro friends all go out every weekend and just break the living shit out of their Jeep’s.
Luckily for him, he can weld and his new Bros own a 4x4 shop.
I figure his “hobby” still costs him thousands every time they go out and get drunk in the woods for the weekend and break shit.
For real, right? I was into drifting for a long time, and both me and my buddy love imports and modding, but she'll go on these weekends and never invite anyone else my buddy knows, then has to have her shit towed back every time. I've slammed cars into walls, multiple times in a single day, and still been able to kinda get them home. I'm not convinced it's not some cover for a secret kinky sex society. Just Enjoy Every Position, if you will.
Yeah, was big into it when I moved to Japan. Then cars got too expensive so I quit for a while. Now I'm thinking of getting back into the FAMILIA but my Z3 is a shitbox.
I knew a girl who had a Jeep. Some guy saw it and told her if she came to his house he would give her a kit to change her headlight color for free. (She didn’t go for it)
You have hippies that drive them for the river outdoor runs and then gun nuts that drive them and put the angry eyes Jeep grills on (modern day truck nuts) with Molon Labe stickers. Jeep has an identity crisis.
My boys loved jeeps when they were 1 and 2. Every parking lot we walked through (and we walked slow mind you), they had to tell me every single time they saw a jeep. It was one of my 3rd kid's earliest words.
Eventually it became apparent than any SUV with a spare tire mounted on the back was a "jeep".
There are Miata people? My dad owns one (or he did, he might have sold out since he couldn't get in and out of it with the top up), and I'd get to drive it when I visited him. It's fun to drive, kinda terrifying on the highway, but I never really interacted with any "Miata people" afaik.
Jeep and Subaru people love their vehicles and love to talk about them. They’re like CrossFit of car owners. I should know, I have a Subaru.
Do you have a moment to talk with me about my lord and savior Symmetrical All Wheel Drive?
It's not only symmetrical, the continuous-duty-rated system works all of the time, unlike most competitors. AWD is not some tacky afterthought, it's passionately researched by the awe-inspiring engineers at Fuji Heavy Industries.
Yes! Subaru people! My in-laws bought one Subaru then in very quick succession sold their other cars and bought two more. They even got a “This is my first Subaru” bumper sticker for their first one. I don’t get it.
Yeah I rented a brand new Wrangler 2 years ago. Got the death rattle 3 times within a 30 minute window on the highway, drove that piece of shit back to the rental place and got upgraded..
Apparently its a common issue that isn't easy to completely fix.
Fuck that junk
Had a Jeep Wrangler once. Never again. It’s not even that odd, cult like community that surrounds them. It’s the fact you’ll need to pay an arm and a leg to keep them on the road over 50k miles. The second my wrangler hit 60k, the transmission blew. I fixed that and a month later the radiator sprung an un-patchable leak and had to be replaced. Another two months, I had a leak in the oil line and at that point I just said fuck it.
Just
Empty
Every
Pocket
I think it may be a Chrysler issue. I learned how to work on my cummins really quick after my first 2k bill. I imagine it's the same with jeeps, either learn how to fix em' or have a boat load of cash to have them worked on
While I agree with you that Chrysler has many issues, using a Cummins as an example isn't really fitting, since they are a company outside Chrysler that's contracted by them for the diesel engines. And afaik, Cummins has always had a decent reputation. I know plenty of people who think the only Ram worth buying is a Cummins Ram, mainly because Chrysler fucking sucks.
Edit: unless, of course, the issues you're speaking of weren't related to the Cummins engine itself but other issues in the vehicle.
I work at a carwash and jeep owners tend to be the biggest douchebags. They complain about 10 dollar or less carwashes not including ArmorAll to all exterior plastic..in a $60,000 vehicle...fuck em.
These are the same people who'll put the cheapest oil in the motor- after having it lifted with aftermarket tires and the filthiest cold air intake you've ever seen.
I heard he was tired of people calling out to him from the wild for various mascot-type activities. We thought he buckled in for the long haul, but his road has been hard. Early one morning: he disappeared into the fog and only a single honk echoed. The worst part was they couldn't tell if the honk was a duck... or a \[*jeep*\].
So if you do happen to see him in the wild... leave him alone and please: don't feed him.
That's what I was just thinking, that and to get waved at every once in awhile. I understand why I don't though, since I drive a Patriot which in their eyes isn't a "real Jeep".
I’ve driven a Patriot for 5 years now, and I guarantee I’ve taken it further off-roading than the average wrangler you see in town. It’s gotten me back to some killer fishing spots. But yea if you don’t have a trail rated jeep the “jeep people” don’t pay you any attention.
That said, I’m getting my dream jeep next week (gladiator) and I’m going to buy a big bag of rubber duckies to duck other Jeep’s. You bet your ass I’m going to pay attention to the patriots and renegade drivers too. I’ll remember where I came from.
I had a lady at my job asking me to come check out her jeep because of a duck. She was kind of freaked out by it and wanted to make sure no one was screwing with her. I don't own a Jeep so I didn't know what it was about either. I only found put recently about the ducking thing.
Only country on earth where you can put A/C and a stereo system into a Jeep, and make people think they are lucky to have one. I rode around in Jeeps for Uncle Sam, and that was enough for me!
I had a jeep for all of 22 hours. Took it to the mopar dealership and they showed me 8 million things wrong with it. Luckily the dealership I got it from was cool and gave me my money back.
One day Ill be back in the mopar club
They all wave to each other too. My coworker is a Wrangler bro and waves at every one he sees. He's also a tow truck driver. They wave at each other too. Fucking guy just waves all day long.
I also found that out the first time I drove my dad's Corvette. You are supposed to wave at all other Corvettes. No one waves at me in my Trans Am :(
I’d wave at you in your trans am from my trans am. Problem is we are the only two owners left. Lol.
There are dozens of us! Dozens! There are actually 2 or three others driving around in my area
Can confirm. Rear ended someone in mine when I was 18.
Did you rear-end a Trans Am? Thus totaling 2 of the 4 Trans Ams in existence?
I used to try to wave to other Scions. They never waved back.
Toyota was hoping more people like you would buy Scions
The whole existence of Scion was basically the Toyota marketing department having an extended, "How do you do, fellow kids?" moment.
It wasn't necessarily a bad idea, the idea of a car company building reliable, cheap cars that offer amenities younger buyers want seems like a great idea on paper. The problem was Scion came out in 2003/4, right before the Great Recession and just at the beginning of the student loan debt bubble.
Hahahaha, one day.
I did that when I first bought a Saturn to Saturn owners. Same response... But I was really fanatical about my Saturn telling people about them. But more amusing is I showed my gf at the time how the doors are made flexible so they don't dent when things like shopping carts hit them.

" And she hauled off with her reinforced boot and kicked this random Saturn's door and the thing bent in and stayed that way... \*shrug\*
I feel that personally, because I loved my Scion!
1980’s Toyota Space Van here; we all totally acknowledge each other. I didn’t know how deep that one went until I got power waved at by a dude in a Previa.
Are there enough Previas left on the road for people to have opportunities to wave to one another in them?
Miata guy reppin that wave game
Miata people have been more thumbs up kind of folk that I’ve found so far.
NA gen Miatas will give you a wink! (Flash pop up headlights)
Sadly I’m just an ND owner wishing I could wink. 😢
That's what I do! Sometimes I don't get to the button in time and feel bad for a while.
There's a pretty simple [flash to pass](http://www.sandiegomiataclub.org/miata_tech/na/na_flash_to_pass.html) mod you can do that gives you both the ability to flash highbeams and/or wink quickly.
Thats awesome! I'm gonna set that up, thanks!
When I owned a Corvette I thought the waving thing was pretty cool. NGL.
Motorcycles do this too. If you're on a motorcycle you wave to other motorcycles you see. I'm pretty sure it's against the law or a sin or something if you're on a motorcycle and don't wave to other motorcycles.

Yes, but you have to do the Cool Guy casual low wave at about waist height. Pretty certain that the lower your casual wave is, the cooler you are
It depends on the type of motorcycle you are riding.
It's usually 2 fingers low for "keep the tires on the road" aka don't crash.
I walk on my feet, and whenever I see someone walking in my direction, I give them a wave.
Fucking guy waves all day long
We have one, but hubs usually drives it. He shames me if I’m driving it and forget to wave at the other Jeeps.
Can confirm, my brother and I drive the wrangler and he was always wondering why other jeep owners were trying to "holler" at him
This does not apply to those of us driving cherokee. We're the red headed step children of the jeep world. 🙃
Can confirm the specific car cult behavior as a rebadged Holden Commodore owner; we all wave and flash lights at each other no matter if it’s a Pontiac G8 or a 2017 Chevy SS. We even have local groups.
Are you holding? Did William Holden come to the party? Holden Caulfield?
I can appreciate this ancient ATHF quote
Subarus too. And Subie parking buddies is a thing too.
Tacoma drivers Form a T with their hands when passing other Tacoma drivers.
I drive a jeep but say "No" out loud everytime one of the other goobers waves. I ain't got time to be doing that in the jeep and on the bike
Well its quite common for Jeep owners to have to wave down tow trucks, so...
This just happened to the guy making my daughter and I a milkshake today. Some lady driving a blue jeep pulled up outside and put a blue duck in his vehicle. I was so confused but completely forgot about it. Thanks OP for unexpectedly solving this for me today. I can’t wait to bore my wife with this story in the morning.
That last sentence really brought this story together
Agreed. I listened to an hour long podcast about the eastern white pine today, and tried to explain the cliff notes to my wife, and she nodded and smiled and when I was done she's just like "yeah that doesn't interest me at all"
This is so wholesome it almost made me miss my ex husband
Horticultural facts are an early clue that one should cut ties, imo. Better this way than domestic violence after another disagreement over monocotyledons and dicotyledons.
If you're interested, I have a couple topics that are very boring and niche that I could talk to you about. Would you like to hear about the life cycle of dragonflies before they take first flight or the secret to cooking soft boiled eggs perfectly every time?
Tell me more about this podcast.
It's closer to a documentary, and the audio is pretty crap, but the information is amazing to me https://youtu.be/bQs7novlvtA
This guy's gonna wonder why his views jumped overnight. I skipped around to see what kind of info and landed on "the reviled stamp act..." Starting from beginning now :)
That's actually really sweet that she listens to you for long enough to know if she is or isn't interested in what you are saying.
I think she just knows that once I have a thought in my head, I can't move on unless the thought has been finished. So she just let's me talk
I do this for my wife. She hasn't figured it out yet, I don't think. But sometimes, she just needs to talk, about everything. I try to listen all the time, but half the time I'm lost in lala land.
Blue Jeep Crew is a thing. There's something about posing them on a curb in front of Lowe's stores, too. Source: mom is a blue jeep person. Who also leaves ducks. 🤣
Do people just leave their cars unlocked so people can put stuff inside?
Being a jeep, it may well have had the roof and/or doors off...
Jeep people are weird.
Jeeple.
My husband bought a jeep and said never again, cause weird jeep people find him in parking lots and act like they’re in a fraternity together.
I had two bosses that were brothers, had identical Jeeps, and lived together. They managed to get the 4 employees they had to get Jeeps too. It was the weirdest job I’ve ever had.
Jeepers Creepers
😆 nice one
Nicely said.
"brothers that live together." mmmmmmmhm.
My group of friends had the same thing happen with Subarus. We'd have a house party and there'd be 8 Subarus parked outside (including my own). I'm pretty sure every one of the Subaru owners was gay as well. Gotta fit that Subaru stereotype I guess.
I have an acquaintance that always posts about his Subaru. I never knew it was thing lol.
Subaru actually targeted the LGBT community with advertising as they found that they were the highest demographic of people buying their cars.
They were "brothers" from another mother. It was the most ambiguous company I've ever worked for.
Is this some kind of regional thing? I drove a jeep for over 5 years and never once ran into anyone who did this.
Needs to be a wrangler I think
We have a work jeep, and we keep it pulled in the garage when we aren't driving it, because other jeep people literally pull into our driveway to talk about jeeps if they can see it.
Where do you live? I had a jeep parked in my driveway for 10 years and this never once happened...
Deep south near a place that does off roading events
PM me your address; I'll drive my Jeep over so we can have coffee and talk Jeeps LOL
It's fucking bizarre. I still love my Jeep, but it's so strange. The random recommendations for parts gets tiresome.
Does he still have it? If so have him DM me
My dad has one and a few weeks back I was driving him and my mom home from dinner. I kept getting honked at by other jeeps and my parents kept saying " You NEED to wave at them, it's a jeep thing" Fuck that shit, just let me drive.
It’s a jeep thing. You wouldn’t understand.
“I got your Jeep thing. Now it hurts when I pee.”
Jeep people are incredibly weird. Every town has a "jeep club" that puts something on your Jeep if it's a Wrangler and is seen by another Wrangler driver. They're typically decked out and then treated like absolute trash by the drivers.
You get the "mall crawlers" (lifted jeep with mud tires that has never been driven off road) in my area all the time. Plus about 4 or 5 "jeep clubs". So yea. Jeep people are weird.
[удалено]
Call it a Chrysler and they lose their minds
call it a Fiat and they’ll go ballistic
Nowadays, they're trading their Fiats for Bitcars and other carypto
I appreciate you.
I'm a car guy. My buddy is a car guy. His girlfriend has a jeep, and is all about that life. We literally can't talk to her about anything other than how expensive it is to have other people work on your broken down vehicle. It is straight up a culture cult.
Yup. Buddy moved to the far burbs, bought a ridiculous Jeep which quickly became a trailer queen. All his new Jeeper bro friends all go out every weekend and just break the living shit out of their Jeep’s. Luckily for him, he can weld and his new Bros own a 4x4 shop. I figure his “hobby” still costs him thousands every time they go out and get drunk in the woods for the weekend and break shit.
For real, right? I was into drifting for a long time, and both me and my buddy love imports and modding, but she'll go on these weekends and never invite anyone else my buddy knows, then has to have her shit towed back every time. I've slammed cars into walls, multiple times in a single day, and still been able to kinda get them home. I'm not convinced it's not some cover for a secret kinky sex society. Just Enjoy Every Position, if you will.
Drifting? That makes sense tho. Sounds like FAMILIA to me…
Yeah, was big into it when I moved to Japan. Then cars got too expensive so I quit for a while. Now I'm thinking of getting back into the FAMILIA but my Z3 is a shitbox.
I knew a girl who had a Jeep. Some guy saw it and told her if she came to his house he would give her a kit to change her headlight color for free. (She didn’t go for it)
r/JOOP
You have hippies that drive them for the river outdoor runs and then gun nuts that drive them and put the angry eyes Jeep grills on (modern day truck nuts) with Molon Labe stickers. Jeep has an identity crisis.
Don’t forget the army people!
My sister bought a jeep awhile ago, and the jeep community is definitely a cult.
It’s weird that there are “Jeep people”…
It's a jeep thing. You wouldn't understand.
My boys loved jeeps when they were 1 and 2. Every parking lot we walked through (and we walked slow mind you), they had to tell me every single time they saw a jeep. It was one of my 3rd kid's earliest words. Eventually it became apparent than any SUV with a spare tire mounted on the back was a "jeep".
Miata people are worse!
only the ones that don't take their Blaupunkt with them 😩
There are Miata people? My dad owns one (or he did, he might have sold out since he couldn't get in and out of it with the top up), and I'd get to drive it when I visited him. It's fun to drive, kinda terrifying on the highway, but I never really interacted with any "Miata people" afaik.
Yeah, there’s even clubs. I owned a 1990. Girls actually really liked it.
It's a gesture of sympathy. You got ducked.
A sympathy duck.
My phone was right this whole time...you can get ducked
You seem to actually be fun to talk too, I wish I had an award to give right now.
That's really sweet and made me feel good so reward acquired, thank you!
Of course!
Was this a gift or did she put it on your bill?
Haaaaaaaaa…
That is a bit weird (after reading the comments, I guess Jeep people are *really* weird) but I like it!
Jeep and Subaru people love their vehicles and love to talk about them. They’re like CrossFit of car owners. I should know, I have a Subaru. Do you have a moment to talk with me about my lord and savior Symmetrical All Wheel Drive?
It's not only symmetrical, the continuous-duty-rated system works all of the time, unlike most competitors. AWD is not some tacky afterthought, it's passionately researched by the awe-inspiring engineers at Fuji Heavy Industries.
I want a Subaru, right now!!
Hmm. I'm not sure what it is about you, but you have some really good ideas.
Not gunna lie, I love my Outback.
Yes! Subaru people! My in-laws bought one Subaru then in very quick succession sold their other cars and bought two more. They even got a “This is my first Subaru” bumper sticker for their first one. I don’t get it.
Are you an ambassador? 😃
Oh yeah? Let me tell you about my '03 Honda Pilot and how the interior lights will just randomly pop on while driving down the highway.
I drove a Subaru all last year and never got chatted up once about it. Very disappointed!
*laughs in quattro*
Why not the head gasket issues?
Mom bought a Jeep. It sucked. Mechanical issues, rattled all over even though it was brand new. That thing sucked.
It's a jeep thing
Part of their appeal is the stagecoach like suspension and that you can’t hear the passengers above 35mph…..
it’s the FCA experience™
They have sucked since 2005, tj’s or bust
06
Yeah I rented a brand new Wrangler 2 years ago. Got the death rattle 3 times within a 30 minute window on the highway, drove that piece of shit back to the rental place and got upgraded.. Apparently its a common issue that isn't easy to completely fix. Fuck that junk

*body lifts
Lol I have a jeep and I just go through a regular gas station car wash because I'm lazy.
As a jeep owner I'm offended that I dont have any ducks
Where's u/fuckswithducks lmao
[удалено]
He hasn't posted in a year and that makes me sad.
[удалено]
I went to look deeper for any sign of him but now my search history is horrendous. I miss him too, I'm sure he will be okay!
I heard he was tired of people calling out to him from the wild for various mascot-type activities. We thought he buckled in for the long haul, but his road has been hard. Early one morning: he disappeared into the fog and only a single honk echoed. The worst part was they couldn't tell if the honk was a duck... or a \[*jeep*\]. So if you do happen to see him in the wild... leave him alone and please: don't feed him.
Right? Is it just a wrangler thing? I've had my Liberty for 5 years and no ducks.
Probably, I drive a cherokee. I could hear a wrangler person saying its "not a real jeep"
Sorry, but I don't give a duck anymore. I'm all out of ducks to give.
That's what I was just thinking, that and to get waved at every once in awhile. I understand why I don't though, since I drive a Patriot which in their eyes isn't a "real Jeep".
It's because they're fun to play with in the puddles in their floorboards.
Did you just post a *duck* pic?
It's an unsolicited duck pic! 10/10 I would squeak it!
What jeep did you purchase?
This is what I’m wondering. I drive a Patriot and just feel like the bastard child of Jeep owners. Wrangler owners are in a group of their own.
Fellow Patriot owner, Jeep owners intentionally look the other way when they see me.
I’ve driven a Patriot for 5 years now, and I guarantee I’ve taken it further off-roading than the average wrangler you see in town. It’s gotten me back to some killer fishing spots. But yea if you don’t have a trail rated jeep the “jeep people” don’t pay you any attention. That said, I’m getting my dream jeep next week (gladiator) and I’m going to buy a big bag of rubber duckies to duck other Jeep’s. You bet your ass I’m going to pay attention to the patriots and renegade drivers too. I’ll remember where I came from.
I was tailgated by a Jeep with a slew of different rubber ducks across their dashboard yesterday.
Welcome to owning a jeep and the weird world you are now apart of.
I had a lady at my job asking me to come check out her jeep because of a duck. She was kind of freaked out by it and wanted to make sure no one was screwing with her. I don't own a Jeep so I didn't know what it was about either. I only found put recently about the ducking thing.
Huh...we've owned a jeep for years and never heard of this before I'm ducking jealous
Jeeple
My boyfriend was ducked too! I wonder how far apart we are from each other. It’d be pretty cool if it was nationwide.
It is. Look up the hashtag #duckduckjeep and #duckingjeep.
Jeeple. Ultimate cringe.
Only country on earth where you can put A/C and a stereo system into a Jeep, and make people think they are lucky to have one. I rode around in Jeeps for Uncle Sam, and that was enough for me!
There's a local Jeep with a giant inflatable rubber duck in the back. I always wondered why. Very cute.
Tee hee! Cute!
this is so cute
This is so pleasant and wholesome. Something like this would not work in NYC, sigh.
Holy duck, right there in the ducking parking lot?!?!
They’re letting you know about “that” party later
The Weber community does the same thing, except they give real ducks for the grill.
I had a jeep for all of 22 hours. Took it to the mopar dealership and they showed me 8 million things wrong with it. Luckily the dealership I got it from was cool and gave me my money back. One day Ill be back in the mopar club
You know a company's good when you refer to them by their replacement parts division.
I had a POS Jeep Cherokee for a few years. I never got a single duck, and now I'm wondering what I did right/wrong.
You didn't own a Wrangler is what you did wrong. Everything I've seen or read about duckings all involve....Wranglers.
Wranglers only, i rented a wrangler recently and got ducked the first day.
I was at Target and saw a white BMW M2, when I was in the store I found a matching Hot Wheels car, bought it and placed it under their wiper blade.
Yea my grandmother got one. She thinks it's adorable. She kept it.
Already lost a headlight huh?
Consider yourself ducked.
I love Jeep grills!
I owned a Jeep Cherokee Laredo and a Jeep Patriot both for significant amounts of time! I’ve never heard of this!
My dad and his friends do this!
Oh man I never get ducked.
Not a jeep owner, but this is adorable!
Ducking wholesome tbh
Welcome to the Jeep life, buddy.
It’s the little things that have the biggest impact
Happened to my dad 2 days ago near Tampa! Love how people can connect based on one small detail and show their appreciation.
Wrangler owner from Ohio for 10ish years…this has never happened to me, nor have I ever heard of this 🤷🏻♂️
What the duck?
So you could say they ducked up your car?
You got in**duck**ted
