- YOU'VE BEEN DUCKED!
Have you ever seen a Jeep Wrangler or Gladiator with dozens of rubber ducks on its dashboard? Want to know what it's all about and how it started? Your Jeep Girl Mariah Rohn is here to give you a quick history lesson. Check it out!
Legend has it, that in late 2010, in the interior of Alaska, a father was given a rubber duck by his 18 month old son, the act touched the father so much that he put the duck on the antenna of his favorite vehicle, a tan 1990 Jeep wrangler.
Four years passed and the duck was still on the Father's Jeep antenna.
At that time the parents of the boy started a dog sled ride business called "Fairbanks dog sled rides", and their Jeep was parked outside of their tour cabin, where it stayed with the duck on the antenna that the Father's son gave him until October 2019 when the father and his family left Alaska on their skoolie and traveled the lower 48 until COVID hit
They now live in Arkansas with a new Jeep, the old tan Jeep now belongs to a new owner as of September 2023
And the rubber duck is now lost to time but the memory still remains for the family of the father and the thousands of tourists that have heard the story of the rubber duck that a little boy gave his father and the father in turn put it on his Jeep
And if anyone is curious what the ducks name was it was "What" yes What the Duck named by a dad and his son
Okay so I'm genuinely curious is this the real story of how the ducks on jeeps originated? Everyone knows the 2020 story but I've heard from multiple Jeep forums that it was around before covid
Ducks were around wayyyy before 2020 😅
Yeah I don’t know where they got 2020. It was long before that
I agree with you. long time before 2020
where can I get ducks at ?
Each duck is the number of times those pieces of friggin garbage have been in the shop!
