next you will tell us that sharks have a week of TV dedicated to you.

I wish they would fix (under warranty) everything I break while imitating the commercials. That would be truth in advertising.

Maybe a JK wasn't the right mid-life-crisis-mobile?

At least you can wave at other Jeeps, that might cheer you up.

I believe sometimes people just think too deep on stuff that don't really matter (at least IMO).

Are you satisfied with your Jeep? Keep it. Dissatisfied? Get rid of it.

Friends and family know I am immature when it comes to automobiles, always have been. At 53 that has not changed. They accept me as I am. Never payed any attention to what other motorist think of what I drive. I drive it because it is fun, and I simply don't care what they think.

Almost any advertising is hype. If you actually bother to watch that bs, laugh at it. It only means something if you buy into it.

Life is too short to worry about that kind of crap. Too much deep thinking. Stop it!
