I love my first Jeep, I am a Disabled American Veteran, I bought my Jeep the way I wanted it, so I wouldn't have to wrench on it. It is a 2021 Sarge Green, Jeep Wrangler, trail rated, unlimited sport, 4 door, hard top, with 18" black stars on the front doors, side rails & a custom CB with a subdued American flag on the rear mounted CB antenna. It works great for parades with my veterans groups, getting me through the snow/ice here in NE Indiana & towing my fishing boat to out of the way places. I don't intend to run the Rubicon Trail, so my stock tires will do. I Jeep wave & Duck Wranglers.
no you are wrong. there are some people that buy jeeps and do nothing to it and never take it off road. they arent real jeep owners because they dont own the life a practical owner does. they are closer to Porsche owners. a real owner uses it hard and knows what it can do. he know there are weak areas of it and corrects those parts cause if it fails way off the pave road it could be ugly. a real owner uses it as a tool. its not for taking to the mall its for the tail away from the mall. its a practical devise for the persons life and what he does. why buy a bus when all you need is a skate board.
no they arent. a early wrangler is no CJ. a CJ is no late model Rubicon. and an eastern jeep trail is no western frame twisting axle busting trail. there are remote places out here that are no longer available back east. the differences are significant. it doesnt make one person better than the other. that is absurd. but it does make a different person or culture.
Jeep Person 6: The Judgmental Jeep guy who looks down his nose at everyone else’s rig because they think their way is the only way to do things. Was most likely a Cowboys fan in the 90s and a Niners fan in the 80s - you can tell because they trend towards what’s perceived as “cool.”
How about the Jeep person who thinks that they are better than all the other Jeep people? They owned a jeep all their life and think that they are royalty or something.
Then there are those #5s that think they are better than anyone else and won't wave back at you even act like they didn't see you. I wave at all Jeeps stock or built to the hilt. Once your in the family your in the family. I'm a humble#4.
@@truckerrickakamanowar i wave sometimes when im in my wife's town and country. It's become a habit. Unless I'm in a ton of traffic and have to concentrate so i don't get hit.
Just purchased a 2002 tj with around 95,000 miles and super clean about 2 weeks ago and have totally imersed myself into learning everything there is to know about the Jeep life with planning all my upgrades and how to maintain it. Although I haven't had it very long I would imagine I will probably be a 4. Not that it really matters what type of Jeep owner I will be but as long as I have fun with it and makes me happy is all that matters to me. Just as long as I don't turn into some Jeep snob and look down on anyone that is in any of the certain categories described in this video.
I agree as a guy who has a 97 wrangler TJ and did lifts, bumpers, wheels, fenders, interior, and stick shift. Seems like anyone who isn’t him is just not worthy to drive one 🤷♂️
Good video !! Right on the spot for each. I’m no doubt a #4. My Jeep Wrangler Sahara 2015 is my (Denali). It stays clean but not afraid to get it dirty. The new generation doesn’t really know the true history of being a jeep owner. The wave (🖐✌🏻) is a code of Jeep owners. Whatever your category is, have fun. True Jeep owners are special. They always help you no matter what. Thanks again for the video!! Night Falls from Kentucky……
This is so true. Proudly a #4. There is a Jeep Liberty up the street that has a bumper cover that says "Its a Jeep thing. You wouldn't understand." I shake my head every time I drive by it thinking... "no, you don't understand." lol And I always wave. Half the time, I forget I am in my other vehicle and accidentally wave.
You don't decide Big J does, you forgot their are still 2nd and 3rd generation Jeep cult alive and wrangler kids and mid life crisis 1st time Jeep buyers didn't write the tradition . All jeep models are capable and in the family, shit the Cherokee name been around alot longer than the 1987 wrangler that is no CJ but a jeep of its own, the Wagoner been around since 1963 . If the jeep badge is own it its a jeep. That libby up the block go ask it to go wheeling with you its part of the family
Pretty good. Not sure I'm in one of the 5 categories though. I JUST bought a used 2017 Rubicon with not a scratch on it. First, I am an engineer for Jeep at the Chrysler Tech Center and one of the guys that's tests them regularly (all the Jeep products including the new PHEVs). I off road more for the company than I do for myself. BUT that will change now that I own my own Wrangler. I once off roaded in Moab with a stock Sport, and conquered all! But I train people how to off road properly. I am going to do ALMOST nothing to my Rubicon. It is a daily driver that I'm going to definitely get dirtier that the average Jeep owner. If I had purchased a sport, it too would have been kept pretty basic. I am running stock right now on the Rubi aside from 2 cosmetic things that the first owner put on it. But I have it loaded up with my recovery equipment and I'm gonna have a blast with it on the weekends the way it is (once the weather in Michigan is consistently warm and ORV parks reopen). And I always Jeep wave! ✌️👋
I think I'm a 4. Got a 04' tj Rubicon. 4" lift, 2" body lift, bumpers front and back, warn 8000lb winch, 35x14.5-15 pitbull rockers, aftermarket driveshafts front and rear, put different exhaust on it. Currently focused on repairs right now. Did u-joints, rear brakes are next. Shock bushings all wore out, putting teraflex shocks in. Control arm bushings were out, so I'm going with an entire new set from Clayton. Can't wait till spring!
I am a mix between 3 and 4 got a 4door wrangler 33 inch tires with fuel rims and a couple of other upgrades, go off roading on the weekend and have fun with it
Im type 6. The kind that buys the Jeep already modified from type 5. I had a 2006 TJ Golden Eagle, but due to the unique styling of the vehicle I didn't want to change anything. Now I have a 2018 JL that needs all sorts of modifications bumper, light bar, running boards, rims, and off road tires... it gets expensive, but hopefully I'll get there. I prefer to purchase jeeps that already have cool mods I like so I can hold onto my money
I’m somewhere between a 2 & 3. I’m on my 3rd Jeep. The first one was a birthday present for my wife. It was a Grand Cherokee Limited. She loved it and drove it for years. In 2018 I acquired a 1997 Jeep TJ. It was the most basic version Jeep made. It had a 2.5 L 4 cylinder engine with a straight drive 4 speed transmission. My grandson is a GM & Mercedes mechanic. He did all the mechanical work necessary, changed all the exterior lights to L.E.D.’s, added a light bar and 4 cube lights. I redid the interior. It was fun to drive and was better than expected off road, but it’s off road capabilities were obviously limited. The suspension needed to be replaced and some other mechanical work was needed. After 4 years I decided I wanted a more modern Jeep with a 6 cylinder engine and automatic transmission. I recently found a 2015 Jeep 2 dr Wrangler Freedom. One owner, locally owned, clean car fax, the service record indicated the previous owner changed oil/filter every 4 thousand miles. It had 57,000 miles on it. Clearly someone’s 2nd car or else they lived close to their work. An inspection of the engine and undercarriage confirmed it had never been off road. When I went and inspect it the exterior and interior looked showroom new. It even has the new car smell. The listed price was about $5000 more than KBB’s estimated retail price. I decided this particular Jeep was worth the additional price so I bought it. My grandson changed all the exterior lights to L.E.D.’s. He put halo headlights and fog lights in and wired them to the turn signal. The headlights and fog lights halo turns amber when the turn signal is activated. The halo’s function as daytime running lights. All in all, some very cool and modern upgrades. I’m retired, so that’s all I’m going to do to it. Basically, it’s a toy. Something to have fun with.
Have a 2023 JT Mojave and love every minute of it. Mostly used to commute as it's my daily driver but it sees a ton of beach time and trails here in Central Florida. Don't really have intentions of too many mods as I bought this truck the way I want. I'm fine with the 33s that are on it and the suspension is great for what I do. I meticulously detail it after every outing. So.....yeah give me a number lol
I have a 2020 Jeep Wrangler JL 2 door, freedom top Sport S. Only mods I’ve done is Weather Tech mats(front/back, running boards and custom cover. I’m broke because I 100% restored my 1990 Jeep Grand Wagoneer. Gave Griswold all my love, Sherpa will get more mods when I can afford it.
I'm a 4 for sure. I am in Okinawa so when I get back, I will be doing LOTS more. I want to do some overland but NOTHING like rock crawling. That stuff scares me! I currently have a 3.5" lifted Rubi JKU. 35" Fuels with some really nice rims. Fenders are my next big purchase.
I'm a 3. I have a Chevy 1500 5.3 Silverado for every day use haul or tow...5.0 TP stang for looks and speed.. JLU 2.0 Sahara for creature comforts up for anything in Texas while in style.
#4/#5, just like you 2.5" Mopar Lift, Awesome Fuel wheels, 35 Nitto Grappler Hybrids. 2019 4 door BLACK Rubicon, dual Flowmaster exhaust, cold air intake, DAILY DRIVER. Last two projects remaining: Steel bumper with WARN winch. LOL, I'm not a rock crawler, however, I want the option to play regardless if I don't, especially since I definitely paid for it. Lol, love your assessment, I had a good chuckle trying to figure out which category I was gonna fall into. I guess I'm in a respectable category. Oh I'm in NC & 70% Jeep wave.
Where does the poor Jeep owners fit into? I just bought a 4 door Red Rubicon, I want to do things to it but I'm now broke!! LOL I have put on a 13" antenna, and installed a ham radio. Does that count?
Any addition to your Jeep Wrangler counts. Going to your local print shop and having them make a logo, or name to install on the side of your Jeep counts. Some Jeepers take years building there Jeep or Jeeps to get to there Build Point. For myself it started in 2008. Last year I purchased my bucket list Jeep. My 1/2 doors came in handy but had to paint a different color, I'm just saying I took parts off my old Ruby and swapped out to the Rubicon Recon. I knew where I wanted to end the build. I Enjoy it with parts from two other Jeeps. Yes we really need to remember what Jeep stands for, Just Empty Every Pocket OMBevery Pocket
1. Hardcore Jeep people. Highly modified, goes wheeling w people they met in Jeep forum 2. Overlanders. Their jeeps are ready for the apocalypse. 3. Beach babes. See them in SoCal all the time. Usually topless, sometimes doorless. 4. Regretters. They daily drive and wanted to stand out. But secretly wished they bought something more practical. But won’t admit it cuz at least they look cool driving a Jeep 5. Broke. Probably most jeep owners since the mods are endless and the internet is open 24/7.
You forgot about the kid that grew up around his friends Jeep (an old flat hood ) and then had to have one, or something , when he did get one he was four years in the hole. Then wakes up he has a life's savings in it , been through two kids a number of dogs ,retired it three times and still has dreams ,and loves every part of it .
I'm the one who rented a Wrangler once and has been devouring Jeep videos ever since. Plan on getting one this year and I'll be the jlu on 20x12s and 33s guy and I'll barely go off road and when I do it'll be light trails and I dgaf wranglers look better than every other comparable vehicle and the judgemental attitude in the Jeep community is weird I'll still be waving to all Jeep fam no matter what they think of me By the way your Jeep is awesome
I own a black Rubicon JKU, 3 inch lift, 35's, smittybilt stubby w/winch, rear smittybilt bumper w/tire carrier, bullydog. It was quite costly. We enjoy crawling to waterfalls, venturing to the top of mountains. Family stuff. It gets its share of beatings, I think my family will remember adventures. A big dog at work says people who buy JK's, are just show offs...JK's are mall crawlers. So be it.
Good list. I am group 4...love working on my Jeep. Almost identical rig to yours, except I kept the fenders stock, hate the look of cut, thin flares. I am retired, and with older age, I just hate driving the crap out of it, it's my baby. Unlike when I was younger, I had a '74 CJ5 with a 304, and dual side pipes. Had a lot of fun with it, and loved driving the crap out of it when I was fourwheeling. I guess we all change with time, don't we? Cheers.
Solid #4 here. 1.75 inch RC suspension lift. Smittybilt 10,000 pound x2o winch, Smittybilt carbine bumper, Smittybilt side steps, KC spotlights. 33in Wrangler duratracs. Also installed the Uniden 510 XL Pro CB and on board is a baofeng ham radio. Finally just upgraded the anemic headlights and installed some SilverStar zxe Sylvania bulbs. Enjoyed the video and yes I always give a Jeep wave. Stay safe on the trails.
pretty cool I have a 4 dr Sahara with 33's all fixed up and I keep it clean and I mall krawl and it is not my daily driver I do my own oil changes so I like to tinker with it.
I just bought my JK 2017 used. Less than 30,000 miles still gotta do some stuff to it. But I want to do a lift 33’s maybe 35’s idk if I want to re-gear, I wish I had bought at least one with limited slip 3.73s but it’s open diff 3.21s If I were to do it again knowing what I know now, I would put up the extra cash for a Rubicon. But I didn’t really understand that the Rubicon is more than a trim like the Sahara. Oh well, maybe will get a Rubicon in the future lol. But it’s still a fun Jeep has 17” rims with some Goodyear wrangler duratrac A/T (came with the Jeep). Probably switch to BFG KO2s when I’m ready to get new tires. Need to get five because the spare is a street Goodyear wrangler lol so I leave it covered.
Lots to learn about when buying a Jeep. Maybe I can do a video about things to look for when buying a Jeep and things to consider with the build you want. Appreciate it!
No disrespect but if you love jeeps No matter what model being a cj5 like I have or a new jeep Renegade and have A Passion for Jeeps. Your jeep person Just because it might not be a Wrangler doesn't mean anything. A jeep is a jeep. that's just my 2 cents
mh vlogs I guess this was really geared towards Wrangler people. I totally understand what you’re saying. I think the renegades are pretty cool. The compass and patriot I’ve been in and driven in. Both awful. A Wrangler is just like The Jeep. And of course the CJs. But I see what your saying.
I’m a #2, 80% of the time we do the Jeep wave in Washington state... I didn’t even knew that existed until I became a #2. I bought a Wrangler when I was sick of owning my convertible and my 4c4. Now I have a convertible and 4x4 in one 😉. Always liked jeeps, I had a Cherokee in the late 90’s bc I couldn’t afford a wrangler. I know I’m not the off road type so I want to put some 20’s with low pro’s on and bump my sub lol.
My brother bought a Compass. I bought a jeep that looks like a jeep. Wrangler JL sport. As an OTR truck driver I only get home once a month. I'm definitely a #2. I don't drive it a 1000 miles in a year. But I look and feel great going down the road whenever I get to drive it. I give the thumbs up to every Wrangler when driving my semi
A person has to have a significant amount of disposable money to be a type 5 Jeep owner. If a person can afford a new Jeep Rubicon, and then heavily modify it, and then take it off road and beat the hell out of it……. Many folks would likely think they have way too much money and way to little sense. If you’re goanna off road your Jeep, buy an older Jeep, then customize and modify it, then beat the hell out of it. You’ll still likely to have to invest $50,000 or more. Either that or become a type 2 or 3 Jeep owner and find a different less expensive, and less dangerous, hobby.
I'm also a solid 4 daily driver and rock and trail ride on the weekends.. But I think there should be a 4A and 4B subcategory... 4A = built it VS 4A = bought it.... 🤔
I am guessing I am a number 4 but I bought it lifted with 35's just the way I wanted it....:) I am a girl and know what I want to use it for and what I want it to look like but I don't know anything about the mechanics to it unfortunately. But I am sure learning a lot by watching UA-cam videos!
JK Wrangler with a 4.5" lift, 37's, steel bumpers, lights, winch, flat fenders, cb that never gets used, spare delete, and of course angry eye grille. Oh yeah, it's crush orange done up with decal General Lee decals. I'll like a 3.5 😂
Lmao! You called me out lol 4 Door Rubicon Lift added Big Mud Tires and Halo Lights. I still haven’t had the chance to go muddling! Lol I’m a solid 4 😩
Im in south carolina i have a ‘89 black YJ with 35 in goodyear wranglers and a blueprint engine 355ci small block chevy with a 3 in lift and a flat stainless steel dash with smittbuilt front and rear bumper with led lights all round
Dave Money I want a TJ. They are a good looking Jeep. Have a friend that’s had his for years. And a buddy in high school had a 4 banger that he had a ton of fun in.
I guess I would fit category 4 first- Jeep was a CJ seven second jeep was a 97 Wrangler now I have a 99 Wrangler sport with ARB bumpers Backs catback SS exhaust system Warren wench 33‘s on it 4mm lift on carb few other little extras PAII off-road lights Living in the mountains of North Carolina I just drive if the road not say dead end and find out where it goes I love to go playing in the mountains .... why did say if you have to ask you won’t understand ... enjoy Jeeping around
Im a solid 5.. but because I live offroad in Vermont (literally) and got sick of walking due to Chrysler crap always breaking. Only thing Chrysler left to replace is the minivan motor. Lol
Cool video man! New member of the jeep family here... Gotta say the jeep wave here in NH is a solid 90-95%... I'd say I'm a #4. Still a daily driver, but still the weekend warrior i need it to be.
I have a Jeep Wrangler jk 2009 and I put a 5 inch lift on it, 34’s, custom halo lights, light bar, cold air intake, tail lights running through my spare tire, dildo shift knob, seat covers, (stock stereo😭), metal grate step up and armor plated doors, spacers, winch, complete limo tint for my “prescription eyes” and a 302 v8 and a train horn😂.. I can tell you I wish I had a rubicon 110%!!! The only thing wrong with them is the gearing.. I live right off of route 1 and they wouldn’t do well on a highway.. if you can get a rubicon I recommend getting one!! I edited the comment cause I forgot the horn at the end😂
Hey mate I'm in Australia Got a 02 tj 2 door.. Legally only allowed 2"lift..(sucks)old man emu.. Running 31s with muddies Stripped front and rear bar.. Winch.. Nothing much to look at but highly capable.. Always surprises the big boys and rarely gets stuck.. Was going to do a lot more to it but after seeing dirt head Fred do the Rubicon trail in a stock jeep I thought I would see what actually did stop her..nothing sensible yet.. So hopefully the stock diffs last.. Future mod.. Front and rear E lockers and that's it.. By the way Nice looking jeep bro.. P.s I'm the 6th guy Little suspension work and drive it like it was built for. 👍👍🤪
Is a modified Jeep really a Jeep or a custom vehicle with Jeep sheet metal? Much like a nascar vehicle. You cannot buy either new from the factory dealer. I have a commander and a Ram that will go most places a stock Jeep will.
You forgot about us mall Barbies. Obnoxious color, or all white, lifted a bit, cute fuzzy stuff hanging from the mirror with matching seat covers and steering wheel cover. Would never get it dirty, and always has’er naked in the summer. 👍🏽👍🏽
Hey brother. Wave from a fellow SC Jeeper. I know I'm posting way late, but just catching the video. What about those of us that saved a jeep from a shitty credit lot, replaced the top immediately because the stock one was trashed, and called it a day for fundage reasons?
So you're saying it's not a Jeep unless it's a Wrangler? You just offended more than half of the Jeepers out here! There are tons of XJ owners that would flame you as look at you! In my opinion nothing's cooler that a totally modified Cherokee rock crawler! Yes, I'm biased because there are so many jeepers like you who think if it ain't a Wrangler, it ain't a Jeep!
A lot of comments lately have been negative. And In the video I said it was supposed to be fun. If you are offended by a short stupid video on UA-cam, well then it sounds like you took it to seriously. I don’t have an XJ so I would be an idiot if I made a video about a car I have never even driven. That’s why it was made. I drive a Wrangler and that’s what I know. So David Voinier, I’m sorry you are easily offended.
im trying to get a jeep but i live in a small town in the middle of no where so they are few and far between when i find one for sale, but i want to make it a weekend warrior overland rig .35s. small lift and a rooftop tent, just to go find a spot on a friday camp and come back before i have to go back to work
sylermran you definitely don’t need 35s for that. A big thing I notice with a lot of people who like to go 4 wheeling and daily, is that they always have their Jeep loaded up all the time. And at, lets say 60k if it’s new, blows an engine. Or blows a head gasket. Or needs a new transmission. And the rooftop tent with 35s which you probably don’t need and could probably do without super cool tent that isn’t 400 pounds all the time. All I’m saying is that, Most of the JKs and a lot of other Jeeps are not designed to keep up with a constant 800 pounds of extra weight ( even without the driver) and then all of the other stuff you will throw at it. Jeeps can go anywhere but they aren’t meant to keep all of your things and carry a heavy load, all the time. My Jeep has done very well as a daily because I don’t over due the weight all the time. No back seat no extra passengers not a lot of gear and especially not a 200 pound rear bumper with tire carrier. Get you a Jeep. Take care of it. But most importantly, have fun with it.
I have the same exact jk as you but its an 08. Same color and x model 2 door. Just wanted to say thanks for uploading content that i can directly relate to and use. I am now a loyal subscriber.
TheDenverJK exactly 23 grand is a better price anyways and for a mall crawler perfect now i really use it the way it should be offroading not mall crawling what its ment for and I think best way is to buy a mall crawler off of some house wife save depreciation and don't have pay for at least some of the upgrades
The Jeeper with the wannabe SEMA mallcrawler, everything powdercoated to match with 40x15.50 on 24x12 deep dish wheels on a Dana 30. The Jeeper w/ the 6 figure build, 1 ton axle swaps, coilovers, hydro steering, beadlocks & 42s, LS swap that'll never leave the asphalt...The hardcore rock crawler with the same build where Jeep is Life. The know it all Jeeper that polices all the forums & social media Jeep groups, who basically just regurgitates something that he read someone else say & shits on everyone with 20" wheels, Angry Bird grill & Rough County lift. The Jeeper that defends the person with 20s & novelty grill...his/her Jeep, their money, build it however they want. The old school traditionalist that thinks everything after a TJ isn't a "real" Jeep
I hate the "jeep people" who think they have such a bad ass jeep but bought it that way and NEVER turned a wrench. I'm def a jeeper who gets dirty and works on my own rig
Cory H Yeah man I’ve done all the work on mine. It’s okay if you have the cash and want to have someone put like a 4 Inch Long arm kit on a jeep or something but if that were the case I’d have the garage with all the tools and a lift to do it myself. Once you put all that hard work into your project it’s so much more worth it.
First I thought I might be a #2 Jeeper, then you explained #4 Jeeper, believe this is where I am. My Jeep is a CJ5. I work on it myself for the most part. Have added a few upgrades. Right now I'm debating the pros and cons of adding spacers. Decided to go for it! When I get more $$$, I'll become a solid #4 with bigger tires and small lift. Oh yeah, I always wave at other Jeepers....as long as its a real Jeep! ;P
Love it! I definitely want to get an older Jeep. I added some Spacers to mine and I wheeled it. Nothing happened no difference. Obviously the correct offset is ideal but you can either buy all new wheels and tires or spend a couple hundred bucks to go a little wider. Nothing wrong with that. Thank you for the comment!
I'm on my 5th Wrangler. I was a #2 mostly. I did have a 4dr when they first came out and I Hated it! Now I'm a #4 with an '05 Rubicon LJ. It's def my favorite Jeep 😁 I think there may be a #6 kind. I knew some out in Utah. They're the big crazy rock crawlers that are prob not driven much other than out on adventures. More of a hobby vehicle.
F’ing hilarious. I subscribed based only on this video. Lifer for sure now. Awesome

You forgot a select group of people. The shade tree mechanics that have a lot of work done to their Jeep, bit they did it all themselves...
we are a sub group within number 4.
Jeeps are jeeps regardless the mods..who gives a sh#t if it's a budget build or a rich mans toy
no you are wrong. there are some people that buy jeeps and do nothing to it and never take it off road. they arent real jeep owners because they dont own the life a practical owner does. they are closer to Porsche owners. a real owner uses it hard and knows what it can do. he know there are weak areas of it and corrects those parts cause if it fails way off the pave road it could be ugly. a real owner uses it as a tool. its not for taking to the mall its for the tail away from the mall. its a practical devise for the persons life and what he does. why buy a bus when all you need is a skate board.
no they arent. a early wrangler is no CJ. a CJ is no late model Rubicon. and an eastern jeep trail is no western frame twisting axle busting trail. there are remote places out here that are no longer available back east. the differences are significant. it doesnt make one person better than the other. that is absurd. but it does make a different person or culture.

Just purchased a 2002 tj with around 95,000 miles and super clean about 2 weeks ago and have totally imersed myself into learning everything there is to know about the Jeep life with planning all my upgrades and how to maintain it. Although I haven't had it very long I would imagine I will probably be a 4. Not that it really matters what type of Jeep owner I will be but as long as I have fun with it and makes me happy is all that matters to me. Just as long as I don't turn into some Jeep snob and look down on anyone that is in any of the certain categories described in this video.
This was just a fun video. Nothing more. I figured it would spark conversation. And it did just that.
Obviously there at at least 6 types of Jeep owners. The 6th one is the one who judges all the Jeep owners and puts them into categories.
Oh yeah. All day haha. So many people fit into that category. Am I right?
Sounds a bit judgemental, like those who have done more or less than you have are somehow inferior. Signed, a proud owner of a mostly stock 4 door.
Prob why this channel didn't do so hot
I agree as a guy who has a 97 wrangler TJ and did lifts, bumpers, wheels, fenders, interior, and stick shift. Seems like anyone who isn’t him is just not worthy to drive one 🤷♂️
You had better say Cherokee are cool 🤣 mine is identical to the one in the picture (Trailhawk) but I’m totally shopping for a Wrangler JK 4door
Good video !! Right on the spot for each. I’m no doubt a #4. My Jeep Wrangler Sahara 2015 is my (Denali).
It stays clean but not afraid to get it dirty. The new generation doesn’t really know the true history of being a jeep owner. The wave (🖐✌🏻) is a code of Jeep owners. Whatever your category is, have fun. True Jeep owners are special. They always help you no matter what. Thanks again for the video!!
Night Falls from Kentucky……
I'm a believer in the late 90s early 00s 4door XJs, and pushing them to their limits.
This is so true. Proudly a #4. There is a Jeep Liberty up the street that has a bumper cover that says "Its a Jeep thing. You wouldn't understand." I shake my head every time I drive by it thinking... "no, you don't understand." lol
And I always wave. Half the time, I forget I am in my other vehicle and accidentally wave.
Yeah the little family SUV’s don’t count. Compass, Liberty etc.
You don't decide Big J does, you forgot their are still 2nd and 3rd generation Jeep cult alive and wrangler kids and mid life crisis 1st time Jeep buyers didn't write the tradition . All jeep models are capable and in the family, shit the Cherokee name been around alot longer than the 1987 wrangler that is no CJ but a jeep of its own, the Wagoner been around since 1963 . If the jeep badge is own it its a jeep. That libby up the block go ask it to go wheeling with you its part of the family
Pretty good. Not sure I'm in one of the 5 categories though. I JUST bought a used 2017 Rubicon with not a scratch on it. First, I am an engineer for Jeep at the Chrysler Tech Center and one of the guys that's tests them regularly (all the Jeep products including the new PHEVs). I off road more for the company than I do for myself. BUT that will change now that I own my own Wrangler. I once off roaded in Moab with a stock Sport, and conquered all! But I train people how to off road properly. I am going to do ALMOST nothing to my Rubicon. It is a daily driver that I'm going to definitely get dirtier that the average Jeep owner. If I had purchased a sport, it too would have been kept pretty basic. I am running stock right now on the Rubi aside from 2 cosmetic things that the first owner put on it. But I have it loaded up with my recovery equipment and I'm gonna have a blast with it on the weekends the way it is (once the weather in Michigan is consistently warm and ORV parks reopen). And I always Jeep wave! ✌️👋
I think I'm a 4. Got a 04' tj Rubicon. 4" lift, 2" body lift, bumpers front and back, warn 8000lb winch, 35x14.5-15 pitbull rockers, aftermarket driveshafts front and rear, put different exhaust on it. Currently focused on repairs right now. Did u-joints, rear brakes are next. Shock bushings all wore out, putting teraflex shocks in. Control arm bushings were out, so I'm going with an entire new set from Clayton. Can't wait till spring!
I am a mix between 3 and 4 got a 4door wrangler 33 inch tires with fuel rims and a couple of other upgrades, go off roading on the weekend and have fun with it
Im type 6. The kind that buys the Jeep already modified from type 5. I had a 2006 TJ Golden Eagle, but due to the unique styling of the vehicle I didn't want to change anything. Now I have a 2018 JL that needs all sorts of modifications bumper, light bar, running boards, rims, and off road tires... it gets expensive, but hopefully I'll get there. I prefer to purchase jeeps that already have cool mods I like so I can hold onto my money
I’m somewhere between a 2 & 3. I’m on my 3rd Jeep. The first one was a birthday present for my wife. It was a Grand Cherokee Limited. She loved it and drove it for years. In 2018 I acquired a 1997 Jeep TJ. It was the most basic version Jeep made. It had a 2.5 L 4 cylinder engine with a straight drive 4 speed transmission.
My grandson is a GM & Mercedes mechanic. He did all the mechanical work necessary, changed all the exterior lights to L.E.D.’s, added a light bar and 4 cube lights. I redid the interior. It was fun to drive and was better than expected off road, but it’s off road capabilities were obviously limited. The suspension needed to be replaced and some other mechanical work was needed.
After 4 years I decided I wanted a more modern Jeep with a 6 cylinder engine and automatic transmission. I recently found a 2015 Jeep 2 dr Wrangler Freedom. One owner, locally owned, clean car fax, the service record indicated the previous owner changed oil/filter every 4 thousand miles. It had 57,000 miles on it. Clearly someone’s 2nd car or else they lived close to their work. An inspection of the engine and undercarriage confirmed it had never been off road.
When I went and inspect it the exterior and interior looked showroom new. It even has the new car smell. The listed price was about $5000 more than KBB’s estimated retail price. I decided this particular Jeep was worth the additional price so I bought it.
My grandson changed all the exterior lights to L.E.D.’s. He put halo headlights and fog lights in and wired them to the turn signal. The headlights and fog lights halo turns amber when the turn signal is activated. The halo’s function as daytime running lights. All in all, some very cool and modern upgrades.
I’m retired, so that’s all I’m going to do to it. Basically, it’s a toy. Something to have fun with.
Have a 2023 JT Mojave and love every minute of it. Mostly used to commute as it's my daily driver but it sees a ton of beach time and trails here in Central Florida. Don't really have intentions of too many mods as I bought this truck the way I want. I'm fine with the 33s that are on it and the suspension is great for what I do. I meticulously detail it after every outing. So.....yeah give me a number lol
Probably a 2 haha
I have a 2020 Jeep Wrangler JL 2 door, freedom top Sport S. Only mods I’ve done is Weather Tech mats(front/back, running boards and custom cover. I’m broke because I 100% restored my 1990 Jeep Grand Wagoneer. Gave Griswold all my love, Sherpa will get more mods when I can afford it.
Sometimes you just need to focus on one project. That’s my problem haha
Ive owned a liberty, had a patriot but just traded it in for a compass trailhawk and I love it!!
Love it!
I'm a 4 for sure. I am in Okinawa so when I get back, I will be doing LOTS more. I want to do some overland but NOTHING like rock crawling. That stuff scares me! I currently have a 3.5" lifted Rubi JKU. 35" Fuels with some really nice rims. Fenders are my next big purchase.
#4 here in Indy, list is spot on, I always wave! Finally got my first Wrangler(JKUS/4 dr) about 3 months ago...
I'm a 3. I have a Chevy 1500 5.3 Silverado for every day use haul or tow...5.0 TP stang for looks and speed.. JLU 2.0 Sahara for creature comforts up for anything in Texas while in style.
My uncle just bought a Hybrid 2022.
Me i dont know what # i am . I have a 98 jeep tj but i like mine all stock . Wave at all jeep buddys
#4/#5, just like you 2.5" Mopar Lift, Awesome Fuel wheels, 35 Nitto Grappler Hybrids. 2019 4 door BLACK Rubicon, dual Flowmaster exhaust, cold air intake, DAILY DRIVER. Last two projects remaining: Steel bumper with WARN winch. LOL, I'm not a rock crawler, however, I want the option to play regardless if I don't, especially since I definitely paid for it. Lol, love your assessment, I had a good chuckle trying to figure out which category I was gonna fall into. I guess I'm in a respectable category. Oh I'm in NC & 70% Jeep wave.
Where does the poor Jeep owners fit into? I just bought a 4 door Red Rubicon, I want to do things to it but I'm now broke!! LOL
I have put on a 13" antenna, and installed a ham radio. Does that count?
We are all broke my friend. Haha
Haha if you can buy rubicon , your not broke 😂😂👍
It’s a good start. No rules on time line. You build it to how u like it.
Jay true now I’m just broke every two weeks when the payment for a rubicon comes around lol
Any addition to your Jeep Wrangler counts. Going to your local print shop and having them make a logo, or name to install on the side of your Jeep counts. Some Jeepers take years building there Jeep or Jeeps to get to there Build Point. For myself it started in 2008. Last year I purchased my bucket list Jeep. My 1/2 doors came in handy but had to paint a different color, I'm just saying I took parts off my old Ruby and swapped out to the Rubicon Recon. I knew where I wanted to end the build. I Enjoy it with parts from two other Jeeps. Yes we really need to remember what Jeep stands for, Just Empty Every Pocket OMBevery Pocket
Im on my third Jeep. 1996 JGCL, 2011 JGCL, now 2008 Wrangler Unlimited X JK. I will fail into number four. It will be my daily driver
I'm def. A 4 person! I jeep wave alot... even sometimes when I'm not in my jeep. Lol.
1. Hardcore Jeep people. Highly modified, goes wheeling w people they met in Jeep forum
2. Overlanders. Their jeeps are ready for the apocalypse.
3. Beach babes. See them in SoCal all the time. Usually topless, sometimes doorless.
4. Regretters. They daily drive and wanted to stand out. But secretly wished they bought something more practical. But won’t admit it cuz at least they look cool driving a Jeep
5. Broke. Probably most jeep owners since the mods are endless and the internet is open 24/7.
THIS. Excellent job.
You forgot about the kid that grew up around his friends Jeep (an old flat hood ) and then had to have one, or something , when he did get one he was four years in the hole. Then wakes up he has a life's savings in it , been through two kids a number of dogs ,retired it three times and still has dreams ,and loves every part of it .
That’s what it is all about.
I'm in North carolina about 10 mins from South carolina and just today I waved at a nice lifted Cherokee and got flipped off.
That’s a little aggressive. Haha
Ahhhhhh lol
Left out the mall crawlers
I'm the one who rented a Wrangler once and has been devouring Jeep videos ever since. Plan on getting one this year and I'll be the jlu on 20x12s and 33s guy and I'll barely go off road and when I do it'll be light trails and I dgaf
wranglers look better than every other comparable vehicle and the judgemental attitude in the Jeep community is weird
I'll still be waving to all Jeep fam no matter what they think of me
By the way your Jeep is awesome
I own a black Rubicon JKU, 3 inch lift, 35's, smittybilt stubby w/winch, rear smittybilt bumper w/tire carrier, bullydog. It was quite costly. We enjoy crawling to waterfalls, venturing to the top of mountains. Family stuff. It gets its share of beatings, I think my family will remember adventures.
A big dog at work says people who buy JK's, are just show offs...JK's are mall crawlers. So be it.
Good list. I am group 4...love working on my Jeep. Almost identical rig to yours, except I kept the fenders stock, hate the look of cut, thin flares. I am retired, and with older age, I just hate driving the crap out of it, it's my baby. Unlike when I was younger, I had a '74 CJ5 with a 304, and dual side pipes. Had a lot of fun with it, and loved driving the crap out of it when I was fourwheeling. I guess we all change with time, don't we? Cheers.
Solid #4 here. 1.75 inch RC suspension lift. Smittybilt 10,000 pound x2o winch, Smittybilt carbine bumper, Smittybilt side steps, KC spotlights. 33in Wrangler duratracs. Also installed the Uniden 510 XL Pro CB and on board is a baofeng ham radio. Finally just upgraded the anemic headlights and installed some SilverStar zxe Sylvania bulbs. Enjoyed the video and yes I always give a Jeep wave. Stay safe on the trails.
Very nice. I’m about to change up my radio CB set up. I want something a little cleaner.
pretty cool I have a 4 dr Sahara with 33's all fixed up and I keep it clean and I mall krawl and it is not my daily driver I do my own oil changes so I like to tinker with it.
mall krawlers are my faves. least judgemental
Two types
Manly = Manual 6 Spd
Sissy = Clutchless auto transmission like granny has, with Stop/Start !!!!
I just bought my JK 2017 used. Less than 30,000 miles still gotta do some stuff to it. But I want to do a lift 33’s maybe 35’s idk if I want to re-gear, I wish I had bought at least one with limited slip 3.73s but it’s open diff 3.21s If I were to do it again knowing what I know now, I would put up the extra cash for a Rubicon. But I didn’t really understand that the Rubicon is more than a trim like the Sahara. Oh well, maybe will get a Rubicon in the future lol. But it’s still a fun Jeep has 17” rims with some Goodyear wrangler duratrac A/T (came with the Jeep). Probably switch to BFG KO2s when I’m ready to get new tires. Need to get five because the spare is a street Goodyear wrangler lol so I leave it covered.
Lots to learn about when buying a Jeep. Maybe I can do a video about things to look for when buying a Jeep and things to consider with the build you want. Appreciate it!
Got my 2 door jk rubicon now on the hunt for a lj to do a complete build on
I'm a #1 I guess. 98 two-door XJ. Really jonesin' for a cheap mid 2000s TJ that's not rusted out. Because the 4.0s are awesome
No disrespect but if you love jeeps No matter what model being a cj5 like I have or a new jeep Renegade and have A Passion for Jeeps. Your jeep person Just because it might not be a Wrangler doesn't mean anything. A jeep is a jeep. that's just my 2 cents
mh vlogs I guess this was really geared towards Wrangler people. I totally understand what you’re saying. I think the renegades are pretty cool. The compass and patriot I’ve been in and driven in. Both awful. A Wrangler is just like The Jeep. And of course the CJs. But I see what your saying.
Thanks man I appreciate you clearing that up by the way I'm a hard #4
I love my Renegade. It's incredibly capable. Anyone who looks down on it can kiss my tail lights.
I’m a #2, 80% of the time we do the Jeep wave in Washington state... I didn’t even knew that existed until I became a #2. I bought a Wrangler when I was sick of owning my convertible and my 4c4. Now I have a convertible and 4x4 in one 😉. Always liked jeeps, I had a Cherokee in the late 90’s bc I couldn’t afford a wrangler. I know I’m not the off road type so I want to put some 20’s with low pro’s on and bump my sub lol.
My brother bought a Compass. I bought a jeep that looks like a jeep. Wrangler JL sport. As an OTR truck driver I only get home once a month. I'm definitely a #2. I don't drive it a 1000 miles in a year. But I look and feel great going down the road whenever I get to drive it. I give the thumbs up to every Wrangler when driving my semi
All that matters is how you feel in it and driving it. Not a single other opinion matters.
A person has to have a significant amount of disposable money to be a type 5 Jeep owner. If a person can afford a new Jeep Rubicon, and then heavily modify it, and then take it off road and beat the hell out of it……. Many folks would likely think they have way too much money and way to little sense.
If you’re goanna off road your Jeep, buy an older Jeep, then customize and modify it, then beat the hell out of it. You’ll still likely to have to invest $50,000 or more. Either that or become a type 2 or 3 Jeep owner and find a different less expensive, and less dangerous, hobby.
I'm also a solid 4 daily driver and rock and trail ride on the weekends..
But I think there should be a 4A and 4B subcategory...
4A = built it VS
4A = bought it.... 🤔
He nailed me. im number 4 all the way. And yes I do the jeep wave.
You should’ve added the ones who bought a lifted JK/JL with 35s, and all the accessories. It never gets dirty, a mall crawler.
So many of them.
I am guessing I am a number 4 but I bought it lifted with 35's just the way I wanted it....:) I am a girl and know what I want to use it for and what I want it to look like but I don't know anything about the mechanics to it unfortunately. But I am sure learning a lot by watching UA-cam videos!
Love it!
Mindy im proud of u
You missed the number 6 jeepers. The ones who bought it all done with lift and tires ext... pretty good list though. #4 here.
Derek Brunet oh yeah! Maybe a revised list in the future. Thank you
This is me! :)
I just have a 4x4 04 Jeep Liberty I love her
Guess I'm a #2, but in my defense I just pulled the drive out tag off mine
I'm a #2 (just got my jku 2 months ago), working on becoming #4. Lol
Be careful. You will spend a lot of money.
What about the rock buggies, 1 tons, atlas, coilovers? It’s still a Jeep right?
100%
JK Wrangler with a 4.5" lift, 37's, steel bumpers, lights, winch, flat fenders, cb that never gets used, spare delete, and of course angry eye grille. Oh yeah, it's crush orange done up with decal General Lee decals. I'll like a 3.5 😂
Angry Eye Grill?? Come on man!
@@Thehowardhaeg hey man, the rugged ridge Spartan looks good on it. @general_lee_JK on Instagram. You tell me what you think.
Lmao! You called me out lol 4 Door Rubicon Lift added Big Mud Tires and Halo Lights. I still haven’t had the chance to go muddling! Lol I’m a solid 4 😩
Im in south carolina i have a ‘89 black YJ with 35 in goodyear wranglers and a blueprint engine 355ci small block chevy with a 3 in lift and a flat stainless steel dash with smittbuilt front and rear bumper with led lights all round
I love it! Perfectly Stated Sir. Thanks for the video. Carry On!
Appreciate it!
I'm from SC and just bought my first jeep a year ago 🤣
Very pretty state. Hope you are enjoying it!
I have a stock 96 xj, but I’m about to buy a 97 tj and give it some clean mods. I like that safari roof rack look and that world war 2 look. We’ll see
Dave Money I want a TJ. They are a good looking Jeep. Have a friend that’s had his for years. And a buddy in high school had a 4 banger that he had a ton of fun in.
✋🏾definitely #4 here
I guess I would fit category 4 first- Jeep was a CJ seven second jeep was a 97 Wrangler now I have a 99 Wrangler sport with ARB bumpers Backs catback SS exhaust system Warren wench 33‘s on it 4mm lift on carb few other little extras PAII off-road lights
Living in the mountains of North Carolina I just drive if the road not say dead end and find out where it goes I love to go playing in the mountains ....
why did say if you have to ask you won’t understand ... enjoy Jeeping around
Im a solid 5.. but because I live offroad in Vermont (literally) and got sick of walking due to Chrysler crap always breaking. Only thing Chrysler left to replace is the minivan motor. Lol
#4 for sure for me! I wanna shift to the type #5. 😂
I have 4 door rubicon , I m running 33 on stock height ✌️
Cool video man! New member of the jeep family here... Gotta say the jeep wave here in NH is a solid 90-95%... I'd say I'm a #4. Still a daily driver, but still the weekend warrior i need it to be.
Jeep wave yeah I'm a #4 too 2016 wrangler sport unlimited 4 door running 33s
I have a Jeep Wrangler jk 2009 and I put a 5 inch lift on it, 34’s, custom halo lights, light bar, cold air intake, tail lights running through my spare tire, dildo shift knob, seat covers, (stock stereo😭), metal grate step up and armor plated doors, spacers, winch, complete limo tint for my “prescription eyes” and a 302 v8 and a train horn😂.. I can tell you I wish I had a rubicon 110%!!! The only thing wrong with them is the gearing.. I live right off of route 1 and they wouldn’t do well on a highway.. if you can get a rubicon I recommend getting one!!
I edited the comment cause I forgot the horn at the end😂
I need to see a picture of this.
TheDenverJK in the shop for a color change atm but how should I send you a pic??
Registered Hands Instagram DM’s or email.
Hey mate
I'm in Australia
Got a 02 tj 2 door..
Legally only allowed 2"lift..(sucks)old man emu..
Running 31s with muddies
Stripped front and rear bar..
Winch..
Nothing much to look at but highly capable..
Always surprises the big boys and rarely gets stuck..
Was going to do a lot more to it but after seeing dirt head Fred do the Rubicon trail in a stock jeep I thought I would see what actually did stop her..nothing sensible yet..
So hopefully the stock diffs last..
Future mod..
Front and rear E lockers and that's it..
By the way
Nice looking jeep bro..
P.s
I'm the 6th guy
Little suspension work and drive it like it was built for.
👍👍🤪
Well said !I'm a 4 with a 95 wrangler
#6 Built Suzuki Samurai guys pulling #5 and #4 guys off an obstacle.
Heyyyyyyyyy
Is a modified Jeep really a Jeep or a custom vehicle with Jeep sheet metal? Much like a nascar vehicle. You cannot buy either new from the factory dealer. I have a commander and a Ram that will go most places a stock Jeep will.
Got my first Jeep, red Liberty love it, then a grand Cherokee, hated it, finally I got my wrangler...love it❤️❤️❤️❤️
You forgot about us mall Barbies. Obnoxious color, or all white, lifted a bit, cute fuzzy stuff hanging from the mirror with matching seat covers and steering wheel cover. Would never get it dirty, and always has’er naked in the summer. 👍🏽👍🏽
Hey brother. Wave from a fellow SC Jeeper. I know I'm posting way late, but just catching the video. What about those of us that saved a jeep from a shitty credit lot, replaced the top immediately because the stock one was trashed, and called it a day for fundage reasons?
So you're saying it's not a Jeep unless it's a Wrangler? You just offended more than half of the Jeepers out here! There are tons of XJ owners that would flame you as look at you! In my opinion nothing's cooler that a totally modified Cherokee rock crawler! Yes, I'm biased because there are so many jeepers like you who think if it ain't a Wrangler, it ain't a Jeep!
A lot of comments lately have been negative. And In the video I said it was supposed to be fun. If you are offended by a short stupid video on UA-cam, well then it sounds like you took it to seriously. I don’t have an XJ so I would be an idiot if I made a video about a car I have never even driven. That’s why it was made. I drive a Wrangler and that’s what I know. So David Voinier, I’m sorry you are easily offended.
I'm a 4. 2.5 inch lift. 33's and winch. So far.
You can fit 35s with a 2.5 inch lift easy.
Solid 4 here!
By the end of two I quit lol, this guy seems like he took sleeping pills before filming.
I was definitely napping before this.
👍🏿👍🏿
im trying to get a jeep but i live in a small town in the middle of no where so they are few and far between when i find one for sale, but i want to make it a weekend warrior overland rig .35s. small lift and a rooftop tent, just to go find a spot on a friday camp and come back before i have to go back to work
sylermran you definitely don’t need 35s for that. A big thing I notice with a lot of people who like to go 4 wheeling and daily, is that they always have their Jeep loaded up all the time. And at, lets say 60k if it’s new, blows an engine. Or blows a head gasket. Or needs a new transmission. And the rooftop tent with 35s which you probably don’t need and could probably do without super cool tent that isn’t 400 pounds all the time. All I’m saying is that, Most of the JKs and a lot of other Jeeps are not designed to keep up with a constant 800 pounds of extra weight ( even without the driver) and then all of the other stuff you will throw at it. Jeeps can go anywhere but they aren’t meant to keep all of your things and carry a heavy load, all the time. My Jeep has done very well as a daily because I don’t over due the weight all the time. No back seat no extra passengers not a lot of gear and especially not a 200 pound rear bumper with tire carrier. Get you a Jeep. Take care of it. But most importantly, have fun with it.
I have the same exact jk as you but its an 08. Same color and x model 2 door. Just wanted to say thanks for uploading content that i can directly relate to and use. I am now a loyal subscriber.
Apologies for the late response but thank you. I try when I can.
Whoooohooo! I have the 05 LJ
Unicorn!
Damn I think I'm #2. Average jeeper. Stock and keeping it for life🚙
New Jersey keeps the Jeep wave alive ✌Im a 4.2 lol
I’m probably #2 and I wanna do stuff to it but just don’t have the money sadly lol. But the list is spot on lol
Definitely number 4 33s on 18 inch rims stubby bush bumper with a 12000 lb winch gets muddy slightly trashed on but not severely beat on
Hey man, not everyone needs a $75,000 Jeep. Or in my case I wouldn’t want one that expensive.
TheDenverJK exactly 23 grand is a better price anyways and for a mall crawler perfect now i really use it the way it should be offroading not mall crawling what its ment for and I think best way is to buy a mall crawler off of some house wife save depreciation and don't have pay for at least some of the upgrades
4.5 spoken here!
79 CJ5 37 MAXXIS CREEPY CRAWLERS, 1 TONS 538 GEARS, LS SWAPED, 15 INCH REAR 4 LINK STRETCH... WHAT AM I ?
William Young Boss.
a real jeep owner that knows his shit.
Lol I bought a Jeep because I love them and can afford one. I didn’t want a 4Runner. Simple.
I’m number 4,5 lol JEEP= Just Emptying Every Pocket
Craigslist and Facebook groups are a great place to meet other Jeepers. And they sell parts much cheaper to people who also own Jeeps.
The Jeeper with the wannabe SEMA mallcrawler, everything powdercoated to match with 40x15.50 on 24x12 deep dish wheels on a Dana 30.
The Jeeper w/ the 6 figure build, 1 ton axle swaps, coilovers, hydro steering, beadlocks & 42s, LS swap that'll never leave the asphalt...The hardcore rock crawler with the same build where Jeep is Life. The know it all Jeeper that polices all the forums & social media Jeep groups, who basically just regurgitates something that he read someone else say & shits on everyone with 20" wheels, Angry Bird grill & Rough County lift. The Jeeper that defends the person with 20s & novelty grill...his/her Jeep, their money, build it however they want.
The old school traditionalist that thinks everything after a TJ isn't a "real" Jeep
Offroad Assasin Spot on!
LOL list is pretty spot on. Sad about the Colorado Jeepers not waving, see it all the time. #4 here
It’s weird, even like stock Jeeps will give a wave. Male or female. Doesn’t matter. South Carolina is pretty good about it.
TheDenverJK yup, when I was living in North Carolina they were good about too. Not sure why Colorado jeepers are so uptight about it
Well I’ll be back in Colorado in a couple months and I’m going to change that.
Awesome! Will have to meet up and run some trails
lilRecon09 yes we will!
I hate the "jeep people" who think they have such a bad ass jeep but bought it that way and NEVER turned a wrench. I'm def a jeeper who gets dirty and works on my own rig
Cory H Yeah man I’ve done all the work on mine. It’s okay if you have the cash and want to have someone put like a 4 Inch Long arm kit on a jeep or something but if that were the case I’d have the garage with all the tools and a lift to do it myself. Once you put all that hard work into your project it’s so much more worth it.
I fall under 4, I'm good with that.
First I thought I might be a #2 Jeeper, then you explained #4 Jeeper, believe this is where I am. My Jeep is a CJ5. I work on it myself for the most part. Have added a few upgrades. Right now I'm debating the pros and cons of adding spacers. Decided to go for it! When I get more $$$, I'll become a solid #4 with bigger tires and small lift.
Oh yeah, I always wave at other Jeepers....as long as its a real Jeep! ;P
Love it! I definitely want to get an older Jeep. I added some Spacers to mine and I wheeled it. Nothing happened no difference. Obviously the correct offset is ideal but you can either buy all new wheels and tires or spend a couple hundred bucks to go a little wider. Nothing wrong with that. Thank you for the comment!
Can't lie pretty spot on
I'm on my 5th Wrangler. I was a #2 mostly. I did have a 4dr when they first came out and I Hated it! Now I'm a #4 with an '05 Rubicon LJ. It's def my favorite Jeep 😁 I think there may be a #6 kind. I knew some out in Utah. They're the big crazy rock crawlers that are prob not driven much other than out on adventures. More of a hobby vehicle.
I want an LJ. Almost bought one before my JK but things didn’t work out. Kinda sad. But once I pay this off that’s my goal.
