Didn't want to get fired.

So I was at my work site today and my supervisor comes strolling into the room where I work and starts the small chit chat, "How do you like your new Jeep?" I almost soiled myself because he owns an 04 V8 Limited AWD Pacific Blue.
I had to ask him to repeat himself, which he did,... "How do you like your new Jeep?" I said, "It is the most amazing vehicle I have ever owned." I left it at that because I didn't want to get fired. Hate to say it but 'some' 4Runner owners are clueless or maybe it's just bosses?

Here is a shameless pic of my new 'Jeep'.

I love my 'Jeep'.

:lol:

Hopefully he was just giving you crap or on some mediation or something... Last I checked my "Jeep" had a frame not unitbody. LoL

Hahaha!!

Im on the market for a small starter house right now as I'm tired of apartments and can no longer fit in their garages and so I have a realtor looking at houses that have 7' garages.

I cant tell you how many times he says "this house will fit your jeep"

I CRIIINGE every time he says it but go along with it just so I dont piss him off and he stops looking for me :lol:

I would have probably popped off with some sarcastic comment and gotten fired...thems fighting words j/k but really how do you get the two mixed up

 

[Hulley]

I would have corrected him, of course thats probably why I havent moved up here......:dammit:

When people call my Runner that it makes me cringe too.

When I was buying my 3rd gen off the original owner way back when, the whole family was saying how much they were going to miss the "jeep", and how good the 'jeep' was. I wasnt' even the official owner yet and it bugged me already.

Many people call ALL SUV's a jeep. It's akin to calling all Cola's - "Coke".

People I've worked with ...called my Pathfinder a Jeep and now my 4runner a Jeep...

 

[TOYLUVA]

"Can't fix STUPID" . It's clearly not a jeep. I would have to say something myself. Something like " I love my toyota 4runner sport edition. I don't and wont' own a Jeep"

I would have corrected him, of course thats probably why I havent moved up here......:dammit:

Yea...that sounds like me.

Every time someone would say "jeep" I would have to interject and say "no it's a Toyota 4runner, not a Jeep".

LOL...people are funny, especially the "Clueless" ones.

 

[JimKW]

Wonder if he calls his own 4Runner a Jeep?

yup...some countries call all SUV Jeeps. Jeep = SUV.

Glad I am not the only one with a nit wit supervisor.

 

[thirstyturtle]

Well my boss just makes fun of my "little" Toyota because it's not a "manly" Chevrolet. Meanwhile he drives a 2WD 5-cyl Colorado...

I think my V8 4WD Sport Edition wins.

As does my wife's Celica against a frigging Colorado...

Next question is who calls there 4runner a truck. After owning 6 trucks in the last 20 years I just stick with calling it a 4runner as the SUV label gets associated with the CUV vehicles all the time (like the ford escape, rave4 etc)

I don't call mine a truck usually but when my wife refers to it as a truck it LITERALLY turns me on. It does not turn me on when my nephew calls it a truck, however, I still like it.

What I hate is when people refer to my "car". A lifted, 4WD V8 beast with a Magnaflow growl is definitely not a car.

It is a truck. I sometimes refer to it as a truck, but just call it the 4Runner or in my case the Toyota. As opposed to the BMW or the Volvo usually called the Yellow One.
