Is this common in your town?
I went to northern Virginia for the weekend and found all most all the jeeps here are kept stock. In fact I only saw one lifted jeep this entire weekend and I saw quite a few jeeps. I live in Keller Texas were many jeeps are lifted or modified in some form or fashion.
What's it like in your neck of the woods?

You're either not getting out enough, or far enough because even in my pre-Jeep ownership experience that hasn't been the case.

I would bet the percentage of modded jeeps is less then 10% and make note that many of the states on the east coast require yearly inspections including bumper heights and tire coverage on fenders that make it a pain to mod. I do see many from that area however on other forums.

I'd estimate that about one-third to one-half the Jeeps here in OKC area have at least replaced tires and wheels. Probably about one out of four have other obvious mod's. And probably about one out of ten regularly see any genuine use off-road. These numbers are really just wags, of course, but there's almost always a new, modified Jeep on the showroom floor at my local dealership, occasionally along with another setting out on the lot. That would seem to suggest some market for more than just the base vehicles.

In the Seattle and all surrounding Metro areas, I'd say 99% stock. Once you start getting out to the outlying areas, it shifts to the complete opposite. Because I have lived in both areas, I assume it is more blue collar workers who enjoy actually using their Jeeps as they were intended.
