Anyone seen the new jeep TV commercial. It's the one with the fallen tree which blocks a bridge(looks like the Florida Keys). Anyways if you look closely, they "shaved" the top of the tree trunks so that the jeep has no problem not high centering. Build it a ramp and yes it is certified make believe trail ready............ Give me break!

??? you sound surprised ;D anything to sell a "HEEP"
J-just

P-pocket

LMAO
that's EVERY Jeep commercial. it shows some 40+ year old stock broker climbing a rocky "ramp" to get into his house or get some Starbucks (LOL)
and this "Trail Rated" business is total B.S. i looked at the Jeep site to see who and what is giving Jeeps a "Trail Rating" i laughed it's just a Jeep promotion that they developed to communicate with customers the possible trail wothyness of the vehicle they are buying.
they make it sound all official that Jeeps are now "Trail Rated" all it is, is a DCX promotional gimmic. it would be different if they got some certification from a forrestry service or some thing independant that |"rated" their trucks...but they didn't.
GAY
i still love Jeeps, just not people that actually believe that "only in a Jeep" idiot speel.

As far as that trail rating thing goes thats "BS" ibeleive that as much as i beleive BFG's are a good allaround OFF-ROAD tire hahahahahhahahahhahahahah ooh ooh my side that hurt that :o :o hurt

Today someone (in a local forum) told me that I should search more on the internet to understand what a JEEP really means and that in US noone bothers and uses sidekicks.....That was his answer when I told him that Sidekicks can be very good offroaders and that in US jeeps are not considered to be THE offroaders as he thinks.They cant think anymore.The moto "Jeep ..there's only one" has gone deep in their minds.They get an expensive truck and they think that its the ultimate offroading machine.Have in mind that in Greece a JEEP Liberty for example ,has a selling price of around 35K to 45k USD depending on Lts ,extras.e.t.c

"trail ready" huh? :o
Define the type of "trail" it will be used on. ::)
Maybe Main Street USA is their idea of a trail? >:(

Don't know how you all feel about it, but my Sami is trail PROVEN thank you very much!. ;D

Trail rated, too bad most jeeps bought will never see anything other than pavement. Along with most other 4x4's now adays. I think I'll go buy an h2 and put 24's on it......WASTE OF MONEY!
-
LOL, Ya we all think about things around here.
Too bad the other board guys don't see the problem
with false addvertising.
Here's a slogan Jeep can use
Yuppie Tested, Pavement Approved

went out with a bunch of jeep guys again today, One had a new stock rubicon with locking axles and what not, said he'll never buy another one again.

I take my stock tracker places my friend wont take his jeep on 35 BFG mud terrains cause his rims were 300 dollars a piece and he doesn't want to scratch them.....lol
-
that's so true, lol. If I was ever to get new rims on my transam, I would get plain old wagon wheels, paint them silver. $2000 rims still look like crap when the'yr scratched up. Wagon wheels dont look the best, but I have not cried yet because I hit a curb. oh no, $45 for new rims... the end is near, hahahaha

My hat is off to the Zukiworld BB participants!!!
This is the only BB (I posted exact same text on POR and ORC) that understood the thread..Everyone else thought I was slamming Jeep,or believed that what Jeep said was true and now was "disillusioned" as far as advetising, or just plain thought I was dissing the Rub! Hell I just was stating that they "rigged" the obstacle,,,,,,,,,,,,,,There are many more brain cells functioning on this BB than all the others combined!
I may have found a new home!!
People that can think.What a concept!!
I VENTURED INTO A FEW OTHER BBS BOARDS BUT DIDN'T CARE FOR THE B.S.(NOT YOURS THOUGH HEATHER ;D) SO I ONLY HANG OUT HERE NOW ;).......MATTY D, 8)
