Default Why do so many HATE JK's???

I'm new to this Jeep thing. Just bought our 07 X four months ago. My wife & I love the outdoors, love to hunt, fish, camp, hike, dirtbike, ATV ride, Kayak & mountain bike. Throughout our lives we have met so many wonderful people who were out enjoying these types of activities. Honestly, noone EVER dissed us because our dirtbikes or Kayaks were the wrong year, kind or color.

Seems like now that we are driving this beautiful Red Rock JK Wrangler, many so called Jeepers shun us when they figure out what year it is or mabey what I have or have not done to this thing.
Perhaps I'm wrong, certainly isn't a huge deal, we still wave at em all.

Anyone else notice this?

I have noticed other jeepers just look and turn away the minute I try and make eye contact. I don't really care if they smile or wave, I try to be nice to everyone no matter what I drive. If they don't want to wave or say hello, it's okay. My day goes on with or without.

I went 4-Wheeling yesterday with 10 Jeeps.....

2 JK's
5 TJ's
1 Grand
2 Cherokees

Noone seemed like they didn't like my Jeep

Everyone just enjoyed the day and had a great time...A "Jeeps a Jeep" IMO

BTW...It was my first time out with my new Auburn rear locker...WOW

We were on Black Trails (8's) all day long at Rausch Creek and it was intense for sure!!!!!

them the finger!
Some pussy can smell better than others tho

I hear ya, we've already met lots of nice folks out there in all sorts of Jeeps. It's just the "others" that seem to be weird about the JK thing.
It's funny, I look at what a person drives as if that is how they voted. I just happened to vote JK. I understand there are big differences between the JK & the others, hense the vote for JK!

They hate at what they dont understand. I know a couple of jeepers that love the new JK's. Its just an evolution thing. Things only progress (hopefully) for the better. Just keep waiving and maybe one day they will wave back
