Since when is it more about what we do TO our Jeeps than what we do WITH our Jeeps

[ntwrkguru]

If only someone would read the OP instead of glancing over it.

I read the whole thing. Including the part where you complained about people posting mods and then proceeded to post mods. I further read the part where you used this as yet another place to brag about what you did and how you're so much cooler than anyone else who hasn't owned a bunch of Jeeps. No, trust me, I read the whole thing.

I like looking back and seeing different

iterations of my build too

In my opinion you are one your 7th Jeep, a fj40 and a roxor are not jeeps.

Math checks out.

I had to go re-read the first post, but damn you're spot on with that assessment.

And yes, as far as "let's do something with these Jeeps and go talk about it", I refer you here:
https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/forum/threads/what-did-you-do-with-your-gladiator-today.39884/

But let's also talk about the things we do to our rigs as well! No reason we can't do both, not sure why the insinuation in the OP is that we need to stop one to do the other...

Today we visited with our investments manager and then went to lunch at our favorite for now restaurant.
The Gladiator handled the city traffic like a champ, and I didn't even have to use the lockers when parking it.
There was a woman sitting in her car near where we parked, and when we got out side said, "Don't mind me. I'm just staring at your beautiful truck and drooling."

I've received two business calls while sitting here watching my wife finish her lunch, so we'll take the Jeep home, switch to the Subaru, and go make $500.

I don't have a go pro, but it's been an action packed and fun day for sure!

I didn't say it should only be about experiences, Here and other places, including YT, seemed to be about mods and trim levels, And the average joe suck at making videos So now we have youtube pros making them. Some are good, the others try to pull the "real life" pawn wars style TV stunts a bit much. I mean it's still produced and all pretty much turn into an advertisement. I mean, I also want to know what tires someone used on XYZ run.

A few more just a pic or two on the trail and a quick synopsis would help balance it out.

I hear what you are saying but I don’t come here for the adventures so I am skewering the results to those that talk about their mods. I have other avenues where I share my adventures but it’s just not here. Doesn’t mean people aren’t doing what you are asking about, maybe they just aren’t sharing it. I figure most would be bored hearing about my off-roading.

I recognize those places!

No pinstripes, but this parking lot was a little hairy.

My intent wasn't to hurt your feelings. It's kind of important to know not only what but from whose perspective. Experienced vs "It's my 1st Jeep" I don't know any other way to explain this. But ok. Moving along.

Then you must have missed the part where I mentioned 53 pages for WITH and 1283 pages TO. dedicated to the subject. And one thread dedicated to trails and travels with 3344 messages and I'm guessing over 150k messages related to tech and mods. It's the disparity between the two.

you can see it however you want to see it. As a complaint or noting an observation maybe seeing if fellow Jeep guys, you know, what we share in common. No where did I attack anyone's fragile ego. Maybe we have new Jeep owners who think like I do yet are now asking "now that I have this awesome tool, now what?" I'm all about getting out of my comfort zone. And I more than welcome someone with valuable input. I guarantee there are ppl cooler than me. I don't care who is cool or who is not. Either we learn from each other or get left behind.

Let's get together I'm out of town 9 to 16. I want to take a run to Imogene pass. I don't have lockers but what the heck, right? lol

My first Jeep was a Toyota 4Runner.

Here's what I did WITH it. Or is that what I did TO it? I'm not sure.

Poor thing had a rough existence.

That is not a Jeep, never was one and never will be one.

My brother thinks Toyota is the best thing out there, he doesn't like Jeeps.

Why do you care how people use their vehicles?

Like, why does it even come across your mind as a thought through the day, even more so to make a post about it?
