Trail Rated Once Again!
So just over a month ago I was in a vehicle accident, a lady ran a red light and Tboned my Jeep in the drivers side.
Got my Jeep back on April 9th and I had been driving it around for 3 weeks....then my coworker who also drives a Jeep asked me why I took off my Trail Rated badge.
What do you mean its right...IT WAS GONE! My trail rated badge was missing!
Retracing my steps I realized that the shop had removed the decals from the drivers side of the Jeep when they repainted it and that they must have forgotten to put my Merit Badge back on!
Regardless. Took it back to the Jeep Dealership that did the body work and within 5 minutes I was certified again.
And to think, I had been driving around UN TRAIL RATED for almost a month! Ay-ya-ay

You never realize how plain/boring that side area of your Jeep is without decals on it. Once the badge got put back it just...fit haha.
Yeah, I'm glad I didnt go off on a trail never to be heard from again! That woulda sucked.

Had to double check the merit badge. Its the right one. Whew.
We've all seen the pic of the Jeep that got stuck in the median at the shopping mall. I guess thats what happens when you take off the Mall Rated Badge?
