Meh....
I'm a proud mall crawler (it is even in my sig on another forum).
I have THE mall crawler of Jeeps...a 4 door automatic Sahara with a painted top and saddle leather interior.
However....being a motorcycle guy first...I ALWAYS wave...and I'm NOT a poser.
All posers are mall crawlers, but not all mall crawlers are posers.
I plasti-dipped my stock wheels, added a "rubi style" Sahara hood sticker, pulled my bumper covers and called it a day. No lifts or tires or jack mounts for me. I'm looking forward to being able to drop the top when it gets warm and enjoy the only 4 door, 4WD, American made drop-top on the planet.

What part looks like yours ? I'm just wondering is it the 34s or the lift ? Maybe it's the upgraded drive shafts ? Diff guards super chip ?high lift jack Or is it the offset rims ?Charcoal canister skid?sway bar disconnects. Stubby bumper maybe ? Oh wait yours is stock and has too many doors !! And mine has not looked that way for thousands of dollars now ! Try to follow me and save your smart comments for some one else .
I think some of the body and wheel mods you do are great but whats the point we do not have the countryside that allows us to take our vehicles off road, in fact a lot of the so called off road sights are areas that are specially assigned, and they are nothing like the areas you guys use.
Your last comments confuse me as i certainly never meant any offence, just joining in the banter.

No matter what car you own nothing is right and nothing is wrong, we all like whatever we do, and if you like climbing over rocks and sliding in the mud thats great enjoy it, but dont condemn others liking what they do. Buy the way I'd still buy you a beer.

I think I'd almost rather be a Mall Crawler than a Trailer Queen. At least Mall Crawlers spend more time in their jeeps even if it sees mostly pavement. Even with all the flashy do-dads its still the most capable 4x4 off the lot.

The sad thing is that sometimes crawling to the mall in some of the Northern states and Canada is more challenging than going through the mud and rocks. I have not had to do it in my Wrangler yet, but on more than one occasion in my old XJ I had to drive through snow over the bumper on roads to get where I was going.
