Well I just came back from the local shopping mall. and as I was walking back to my JK i noticed a couple looking at it. I decided to stay back and see what the commotion was about. The couple were simply staring and looking in aw of my jeep. Well I walked closer to overhear the conversation and it went something like this:

Male: This aint no damn hummer. look at the tires, hummers are afraid of tires like that.

Female: Are you sure, it looks like the little hummer.

Male: I am sure its not a hummer, besides it says jeep on the grill.
Female: Oh ok, this looks alot like the hummer, but I like these tires.

Male: Of course, this jeep is built for one reason. To go off roading, its a mans truck. Those hummers aren't crap.

By this time I walked closer and couple noticed me. I had somewhat of a smirk on my face. They asked me about the local jeep club I go with and other questions. I let the wife climb up and take a seat in the drivers seat. They asked what dealership I bought it from cause they want one. I gave them the details of my dealership and what I had on the jeep.

I gotta say it was a awesome feeling to hear that and what not. Man I love my jeep.

 

I remember when I first drove my new JK to work. The first comment I got as I drove up was from the forman. He said......"wow, that's a beautiful thing".

Had some guy yell at me in traffic once, saying NICE LOOKIN JEEP...!!!

I always catch people checking it out, and I haven't even done anything but put new shoes on it.

I doubt I'll ever get tired of it...

 

That's good that the husband in the story had some sense.... I catch people staring at my new Jeep all the time. Seems like the Detonator Yellow screams "LOOK AT ME!!!" The old Steel Blue one I had got attention, but more from other Jeepers than the new one. I have had kids and old people commenting on the "Rumble Bee" hood decal and the Jeep.

 

Where I am from, there are not many 4dr wranglers around, and even fewer Rubicon 4drs. I have been approached myself a few different times with people asking me about my Jeep. One of the first things out of their mouth is "Is that one of them new Hummers?" in which I generally always reply back with "No, It's a 4dr Jeep Wrangler which is much better than a Hummer!". Then they usually reply back with "Oh, Well it looks like a very nice rig!" This is my first Jeep, and this is the first vehicle, out of many that I have bought, that I am truly happy with!!! I will always drive a wrangler from here on out.

 

I just took my break and was going to get something to eat . I pulled up to a red light and noticed the guys next to me lookin at my Jeep. They then game me a thumbs up and I returned a thumbs up. Then they signed for me to roll my window down so I did. The driver yelled out to me " it looks better than a hummer, way better!" I told him thanks and I appreciated it . It felt pretty good. That was my first compliment comparing my JK to a hummer.

 

I had the doors off and top down with no mirrors going through downtown Indianapolis....Saw a cop coming towards me and then he cut a u turn in the middle of a two lane road in the middle of downtown..

I thought he was coming to give me a ticket for sure. So i sit there and wait for him to pull up in the turn lane beside me and looks up at me....smiles and says DUDE I LOVE THE JEEP!!!!

Caught me off gaurd the cop talked to me until the light turned and then he went ahead and u turned again in the opposite direction. The cars behind me pulled up and were laughing cause they thought i was goign to get a ticket.

 

There's a dealer somewhere waiting for that guy to walk in the door. I know mine had a built-up rig on the lot--for about 10K more than the new JK and mod parts were worth.

 

There is a nicely built Detonator Yellow Jeep out here in East Memphis, I have tinted windows on the WJ, I rolled mine down and gave him a thumbs up.

 

I was driving down a highway with my top off and some random dude started yelling, "Nice Jeep!" That was cool...

And to my wife's displeasure, all the ladies stare at me in traffic and at drive thru's. My wife thinks it's because I'm driving, haha, but I KNOW it's the Jeep.

 

In traffic, the guy in the next car asked me if it's the new Hummer H4
