When I drive into the fuel station (obvious Diesel rattle), "Cummins" sticker on the hood, pull up to the diesel pump, and they ask "Is that really diesel?" "They didn't make many of those, did they?"

 

I just had my boss ask me "Is the only difference between a Wrangler and Rubicon the number of doors?" He thought the Wranglers were a 2 doors and Rubicons were 4 doors.

 

Not a question, but an hilarious statement. We live in Salt Lake City, only 4 hours from Moab, so we go down at least twice a year. My wife is a good sport and comes along, but she gets nervous. So when we come up to a big, scary-looking obstacle, she says, "I think I'll get out and take some pictures of you driving."

Another funny wife statement - she was getting gas, and a guy with a new JK with a lift, but with OEM plastic bumpers and plastic running boards, was trying to impress her with his big lift. She looked at his Jeep and sarcastically said, "Before you take that off-road you need to get some real rock rails and bumpers."

 

I have a JKU Sport. Everyone seems to think that all Jeeps are Rubicons, so I am asked all the time if it's a Rubicon. I bought several original looking Rubicon stickers from a vendor and modified them to read RUBINON. Still, some dumbass asked at a gas station..."Is the RUBINON a new model? What are they going for?"

 

I took the JKUR into a jiffy lube to get a quick oil change. Young highschool service attendant takes a look at it (no doors or top) and asked if It was a grand Cherokee.
Hahahaha no.
He then offered me a complementary car wash after my service was done.
I looked him in the eye, swing my head back and looked at the Jeep, looked back at the kid and said, " now how the hell do plan on doing that?!?"
His reply, " oh yeah haha I guess not without a roof or anything...."

Same kid also asked if my cb radio let me listen to cops. Lol

 

In reference to taking people to trails, I had a couple of teenagers jump out after asking are we going up that? After convincing them that it was safe they screamed as if they were at six flags on roller coaster. It was a short obstacle about 15 yards. After we climbed the rock obstacle they were like that was nothing. Instead of turning around and going back down and I told them it is more fun going back down backwards. The screams turned to screeches and twisting and turning in theirs seats trying to watch where we were going. I was laughing so hard I was almost crying. When we got to the bottom I noticed it was not just me almost crying. One of the teenagers asked me if I could take her home.

 

I've been asked 3 times at the pump, "Is that your Jeep?"

 

At work once after a muddy weekend: "That's your Jeep? I thought it was some macho guy showing off."

Another time: "How do you get into it?" (it's lifted and on 37's)

And: "You can drive that?" (I'm a girl...)

And: "Do you go off road?" (YES)

And: "How do you like it?" (It's F-ing awesome)

And: "Are those tires expensive?" (YES)

And: "What do you do when you go off road?" (I crawl over big rocks)

And: "It looks powerful." (It's a gutless wonder going uphill, but I can drive over a boulder - that always confuses them)

I know there are more that have made me chuckle and roll my eyes but that's all I can think of right now.

 

from a guy in a church parking lot after a Rausch Creek Saturday, Jeep covered in mud:

"Nice Jeep! Have you rolled it?"

I said No, I try to keep the shiny side up while off roadin'.

 

i wonder if the dumbass at the gas station is on some other forum saying theres a jeeper that bought stickers and modified them to say rubinon when he has a sport lol
