I thought Jeep has become more of a girl's vehicle now. My daughter and GF have one. I guess the new thing is to put rubberducks on fellow Jeep owners Jeeps. Weird bunch.

I've wheeled the new Bronco. I don't see any Jeeps coming to rescue it.
Must be why I found a rubber ducky in the parking lot at my apartment the other day. LOL!

@Jim Oaks : You need to get your mods under control - professing love for Jeep Wranglers. (and repeated it 2x) He should be in corner at least :nono:

We should take his company jet privileges away for a while.

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.

Doesn't matter. It's grounded for a while. Did an automatic firmware update to the ecu. Now the wipers won't stop and the radar keeps playing Andy Griffith reruns.

My mom has a black 16’ GC, bought it new and she travels for a living. Hers is pushing 160k miles and same thing, not a lick of shit other than a wheel bearing.

If you had the one with the hemi, it wouldn't get driven very much because they have to stop at every gas station...

My mother drives a dodge 1500 with the hemi in it,I honestly don't remember the year maby 15-17. with the cylinder shut down tech, she gets as good or better milage than my ranger on the highway. However in town with the way she drives, I swear you can watch the guage drop. And I hate to say this but the engine and trans have been real good to her d.d. duty hauls a boat, she's been to Maine to visit my sister with it. But it was at the dealer several times for electrical issues, but the repairs have held and nothing since.

I see 11-13 regardless of where im driving. Knock 4 off with a trailer. She only gets about 20-21mpg average with the jeep now, if i can come close with a hemi id rather have the hemi. Either way itll be better than her old Tahoe. It would get MAYBE 17mpg treating it nice on the highway. It was an awesome vehicle though, wish we still had it.

Doing things wrong, until I get it right.
At least @85_Ranger4x4 is getting a Bronco. He can want a PYT or whatever, all he wants, but you don't see him posting pics of garbage. (sarcasm)

All of these posts that are not circle jerking Ford are making uncomfortable that this may become some kind of S10 or Frontier forum.
