Three types of Jeeps won’t wave at. A stock/near stock jeep, angry grill, someone that has a duck/ducks on the dash.

If you dislike it….. and you get ducked…. Take that duck and put it on another vehicle next to you or somewhere else.
If I don't like ducking, wouldn't ducking another person's vehicle without consent kind of make me a hypocrite?

First rule of things that piss you off , is to not let others know it pisses you off.

Now I want to duck your Jeep.

Seriously though, of all the ills of the world on a sliding scale, being pissed about someone putting a duck on ones Jeep is right up there with complaining of finding a million dollars but it was all in one dollar bills.

This is what I call the "North Korea Argument" whenever a complaint is raised someone just has to point out that there are people worse off or the situation could be worse as a way of invalidating the person's concern. "Hey, could be worse, you could be in North Korea." - as if that has anything to do with what's being discussed.

It's possible for all those things in the world to be going on and still be annoyed with strangers leaving trash on your $65,000 vehicle that you've worked really hard for a long time to buy. For most of us, our truck is the second most expensive thing we've ever bought, falling in right after our house. So yeah, I think regardless of anything else in the world, someone being annoyed at ads for some dipshit's instagram account shoved in the window seals is a valid gripe.

It doesn't offer perspective, it just invalidates someone who says something you don't agree with. Does anyone really think someone complaining about another person screwing with their car believes it's the most pressing issue in the world?

The North Korea Argument offers nothing except to say "Your concern/perspective is invalid."

I do get what some of you are saying and like Hootbro says it's all perspective. This is the second most expensive thing I have ever purchased yet my perspective is that it's still just a truck and does truck things. I get more branches and hail falling on it than i get ducks but I still don't curse nature. Someone placing a token of apriecation in the form of a duck is hardly damaging unlike rock chips, road debris or falling objects from trees.

I'm also the type of person that if I ever bought $300+ shoes I would wear them. If they get dirty it's to be expected, they are on my feet after all. Lol 😆

Not wrong... but I guess it depends on location. Don't get ducked around here much anyways and with the exception of a company mailing me a duck once I've never gotten a duck marked with anything but maybe you were ducked by so and so. And usually it was just a name no company nor insta account. Hell most of the time it is usually just a hand written note saying nice jeep have a great day and it's a rare like once or twice a year thing, unless at a jeep event of course then I get a bucket that usually get given away at some point. So sucks that in your area it is commercialized but that is not in all locations and also a north korean argument though.

*Edit* And also it is always either on my step or door handle. Nothing is shoved in or under anywhere, that's just a jerk move I agree. Just set it there, you are dealing with advertisers not actual jeepers. So everyone else gets caught in the anger.

Not invalidating anybody's angst over it, just pointing out that there is not much you can do about it.

Needs an angry grille :CWL:
"Keep everything else but make the grille angry."

This is what I got. Apparently AI doesn't distinguish between the Wrangler and Gladiator. Wonder if it considers it a car or truck?

At least it did the best angry grill jeep ever.
