Getting complimented on your Jeep comes with the territory.

certainly so on a Ural. Even a term for it, UDF, ural delay factor. Neat to see a couple other ural owners I here. I used to have one myself.

We do get a lot of complements and questions! It is always fun to talk Jeeps. I look at it as part of Jeep Life!

this happened yesterday at Sam's club gas station for me. I was filling up with gas when the older gentleman came to a screeching stop behind me in a jeep renegade, got out of his vehicle, and started to look my jeep over as well as asking questions about the truck. then ten minutes later, a jeep gladiator Mohave, the same color as mine stopped to get fuel two gas pumps over from me. that person left and we started to talk about the changes that i have made.

Cute girls that I'm waaaay to old for aside. I get compliments on a regular basis. My amazing wife who I would never trade is always amazed at how many people just come up and want to talk to us about our Gladiator.

I’m still part of the stock group but I have had a few compliments
Just weeks after buying it I was at ANOTHER Jeep dealership and the sales people were loving it - they'd never seen the blue with matching fenders and roof and loved it.
Then in Indiana 3 months later, it was still stock, compliments from a couple guys exiting a restaurant as we were walking in stopped to ask about it and compliment on it.
And a number of owners of other types of Jeeps have stopped us and mentioned how much they like it.

3 times. First was a woman in a yellow Wrangler. She said "nice rig".
Then some random guy at a gas station yells "I like your Jeep!"
Last night a little kid said to his dad "Oooooo JEEP!"
Thats about it. 3 times in 6 months lol.

vid not working anymore? where's the entertainment :CWL:
I had to pull it. A lot of people overly sensitive about the situation. It was innocent. But drama is the last thing I want right now or ever really.

The only woman I get regular compliments from about my JT is my daughter who constantly reminds me that she's glad she talked me out of getting a Colorado. But the Jeep does get a lot of admiring stares and people do love it. I got quite a few thumbs up from Wrangler drivers too.

I think it's just a Jeep thing though. My 17 JKU that I blacked out with rims and tint and black nerf bars get tons of compliments everywhere I go and people think it's a top of the line SUV and not just a Sport S.

In the month I’ve had it, have never passed or been passed by a Tacoma who didn’t rubberneck it. Bigger trucks not so much but those Taco owners must be jonesing for a JT.
I live on guam and the taco rules here. The jt has become the newest craze for the small truck segment and the dealer tells me the biggest sales market is to prior taco owners.

To new with my JT... but in the Wrangler Ive had people pull up and drive beside me, along the highway... slowing and speeding up “hanging on” I start wondering what’s going on and realize they are checking out the jeep. A Lot of “nice Jeep” at gas stations too.
