Wifey wheeling the crap out of her “girly” Jeep

JLs and JTs seem to be driven almost exclusively by men. JLUs seem to be driven by women by a noticeable but not overwhelming margin.

Does that make one or the other manly or girly? hell no. I've seen JL and JT grocery getters, and JLUs crawling serious rocks.

The only truly "girly" car to ever be built was the Volvo YCC, and to my knowledge they only ever made one of those.

I have a different story on white Jeeps be it JL or JT. White is the only no extra cost color now, everything else is extra so White Jeeps are “Cheap Jeep Seats” say that fast three times, I can’t!

It still annoys me that my Hydro blue was $245 extra over a bunch of colors one year and next year all but white was extra! Sounds like a money grab to me, although I was fine paying the extra for my blue Mojave…..Jack

Here in Northern VA, all the bored, big $$ soccer moms all have high dollar Wranglers. They have replaced the Land Cruisers, 4Runners etc.
Within 5 miles of my house I know of at least 5 Wrangler 392s. Seems avg one around is a $80k car. Cant wait to see the carnage after we get this years first snow.

They make a pink Tuscado wrangler but not a gladiator.

case solved, theory checks out

pack it up boys nothing left to research here.

My daughter and my wife both want the pink Wrangler. I think I will stick to the black Gladiator, thanks.

Sounds like a pink wrangler is in your future. 2:1 ladies in the house. Better sell now!

always pay up the extra factory paint cost. Paint regret will cost you thousands later. Unless you do it yourself wrapping or painting is heckin’ expensive later.

The daughter will have to give up her JK to get one and the wife will have to give up her Compass to get one. I think I am safe for a little while.

I'd be perfectly happy to own and drive a Tuscadero Gladiator! I've really grown to like my wife's Tuscadero 4xe.

Now that I think about it... I don't think I've personally seen a single woman driving a Gladiator... (and by single I mean a number... not their marital status! )

Around here many women drive Gladiators, and ZR2's.

Dad told me "when you make the money, YOU can buy whatever YOU want." Made sense then and now.

Jeep is a brand, not a model. Unless we are talking about Eugene.

My wife is pissed that there is no 2 door JL Sahara. She has had all 2 doors and the last few have been Sahara's. She has been eyeing an upgrade but only 2 doors are sports, Willy or Rubi's. She does not like the 4 doors or the JT's.

 

[EugeneTheJeep]

Correct.
JT = truck Jeep
JL = classic Jeep
JLU = station wagon Jeep

I see lots of women driving them too. Hell, I had to quit letting my fiancée drive mine because I could never get the keys back. Haha.
