I had a 2013 lifted 4DR Wrangler try to keep up with me on the freeway the other day in my H3 Alpha. At first when he saw me coming up behind him he got over in front of me to keep me from passing, and I was laughing to myself because he had no clue I had a V8. Well I started to push 80, 85, behind him and he finally got over and I just blasted past him with a nice rumble of a V8. Later on down the road I exited the freeway and of coarse by now he's seen the ARB Front Bumper, Winch, Large tires, and then from the rear the Bilstein 5100's and the G2 Aluminum Diff Cover/Guard, well I looked over as he finally caught up to me and I actually got a wave and a thumbs up!!
Guess I caught him by surprise that some people actually mod, lift, and wheel their H3's!!! I have plenty of Jeep's "try" to mess with me but once they either hear the V8 or I blast past their 65MPH top speed mall crawler rigs I leave them wondering with a puzzled look which is so priceless.
I still own 2 Jeeps an 05 Wrangler Unlimited and an 04 Grand Cherokee AWD with the 4.7L V8 and while their good vehicles for the most part it's the new wave of Jeep owners I can't stand. Ever since the JK came out the mentality of a Jeep owner has changed so much. It used to be all about modifying your rigs, and wheeling. Now it's how many accessories do you have, clean it up for a trip to the mall, and lets slap a huge stupid nickname on the hood to fit in with all the other people.... I was an Organizer of a Jeep Club, but once those people started joining and taking over vs the hardcore wheelers I resigned, and I have since not rejoined a Jeep Club.. I wheel with friends and I am not picky or stuck up when it comes to brands of 4x4's. I wave at Jeeps, Hummers, Blazers, Toyota's, Mitsubishi's, Suzuki's, or any modified 4x4 that some one actually wheels. Some people wave some people don't, but I have yet to get a bird shot at me lol.
