I hate the suburbs sometimes (most times)

[repo]

Not to bash Jeep owners or people's personal tastes but this kind of blew my mind. I was walking to the supermarket and saw a nice looking newer Jeep Wrangler that seemed to be built up with nato jerry cans and stuff on the back so I was checking it out, but as I got closer I see it has gigantic 20" rims... ok not that unusual around here but kind of an odd choice for a built Jeep.. then I notice the jerry cans look strange. As I walked by they appeared to be completely fake plastic ones, as in completely nonfunctional like cheap movie props, that must be glued down to the bumper because absolutely nothing was securing them??

Nope they were the shape/size of 20L nato cans but very faded pink plastic, didn't even look like home depot lawnmower type cans. I don't think they even had handles on them they looked like movie props that aren't meant to be in a closeup shot. I think they were purely cosmetic 'vanity cans' I guess.

Maybe they were full of booze?

Too bad you didn't get pictures... never heard of this... odd.

Jeep owners make fun of people like that too.

Like the 4Runner, anyone can buy one and do whatever ridiculous "upgrades" they can afford.

I see alot of brodozer jeeps like that with big lifts and silly wheels. Makes me shake my head just like the TRD sticker thing that some Toy owners stick on their rigs.

Whatever floats their boat.

I am a function over form dude. You will only see me running cheap steelies cuz i beat on my rigs.

Honestly I was once a Jeep owner.. and there is a huge stigma towards people like that even in that community...
