Was at Bantam Festival this weekend. People were super friendly.
As usual, it didn't matter what model Jeep you were in, but what style it was that determined attitude as usual.

Well damn son, you look the kid in junior high who got slammed with puberty in the last month of elementary school.

As for the real jeep comments, so I guess if its not a doorless ragtop, its not a real jeep. What funny is I gage a "real jeep" by how hard you use it as a general utility vehicle, the more mule like the more I smile.

At least they are nice about Gladiators. I checked into the r/Jeep section on Reddit and was blown away by the Gladiator hate from what are apparently Jeepers on there. One went so far as to say, “Gladiators make me sick!” That asinine statement got upvoted, too.
Who cares what some Wrangler owners think? It's not like a Wrangler is a thing of beauty.

While I certainly hope the Gladiator carries on (I may want a new one some day,) I am glad it doesn't appeal to everyone. Wrangler's are a dime a dozen and there's one at every stop light.

They’re in FL, so I’m guessing that is how they get away with it. Buy a spare and you’ll never need it, but if you don’t…
Or they get stolen, the thief (s) that stripped my LJ the last time tried to get my spare tire too. Luckily I was backed up to a wall with only a inch or so of space.

So many times I've heard "it's not a real JeeP" starting with my MJ then XJ to include my LJ being it was now "to long" ? so F### them. I've kinda always "marched to my own drums" ? been different and don't give a F###! I can look into the mirror without being ashamed of who I see.

I hear "its not a real truck" more than "its not a real Jeep". Yet no one can ever tell me how its not a real truck without disqualifying every other midsized truck on the market.

I have never had anyone say my gladiator was not a real jeep, it’s only a jeep with a bed , and I politely correct them , I still really love the gladiator and I am also a wrangler owner , I will probably always have a 2dr wrangler and my gladiator is the truck, personally l really don’t give a crap what other people think about my vehicles .
