Dealt with my first angry Jeep owner

[Dads_bronze_bronco]

That sure is a civilized view. Some rando spits on a guys Bronco and you immediately profile a whole community. Care to expand on this freedom loving type that is attracted to off-roading and which has you concerned so that we may all be made aware and on the lookout for?

There are d-bags in every hobby, sport, past time. No need disparage a whole community for the actions of one.

Agreed-most of my off-road experience has been people challenging their vehicles, and helping others do the same. Sure there are egos and braggadocio involved, but it is usually good natured poking of fun. But when you get into a situation out there, all manner of people will stop to help because it is part of the challenge.

Based on the way they parked, that particular person was just an asshole.

Pulled into the parking lot of my local watering hole to find a packed parking lot. Next to the main lot is an unlined dirt lot which was also almost full except for one small space next to a Jeep Wrangler who decided to park horizontally in a lot where everyone else was parked vertically therefore taking up what could be 2-3 spaces.

I didn’t park particularly close to the Jeep and they also had plenty of space to back up and maneuver out of the space but when they left they still decided spitting on the hood of my Bronco was the right call because… Jeep things? No real harm done and I’m just venting about it. Anyone else have any bad experiences with Jeep owners?

Like school at Christmas…..NO CLASS

No, I’m saying if it was a different car parked like a jerk I don’t think they would’ve had an issue with my car being a Bronco. My guess is when they came out the crowd had emptied out a bit and there were other spots open so they assumed I parked by them to be a jerk. But yes you’re correct that I don’t have a problem with Jeep owners.

Your saying the same thing. It only happened because it was a jeep owner and your vehicle was a bronco. So Jeep guys can’t stand broncos and are more likely to spit on them? That’s what you’re assuming.

Honestly the “type” of people that off-roading attracts is a concern of mine. There is an irony that a crowd so hung up on freedoms gets offended when you do you. Sorry that happened maybe some day you’ll winch them out of a ditch.

Not really a surprise. The same people that scream about "freedoms" only want to you to have freedoms on their terms, and only if you pass their moral standard.

Irony: I got middle fingers out both windows from an angry eyes Jeep just now on the the way back from my ham technicians license test. Hey I passed !

I hate people who take up multiple parking spots.

So everyone who own’s a Jeep Hates the Bronco?

Nice way to draw a line between what I said and what you apparently think I said.

Please enlighten me! I don’t see another way to interpret it.

Trying to add some positivity here:

I had the opposite effect with a NEW Jeep owner. I pulled up to a really nice black rubicon with paper plates and my paper plate Bronco. We both had our windows down and he said “man I should have gotten one of those!”

Here in Austin Jeeps are everywhere. I haven’t ran into a mean one yet!

Not Jeep guys in particular but yes, this particular d-bag who parks like they own an entire quarter of the parking lot likely did it because they are a jeep owner. Not all Jeep owners are bad people, this person in particular I believe did this because they were a Jeep owner.

Jealousy and small penises make people do strange things

I’m a Ford guy all the way but i have owned a few jeeps mostly Willy’s M38A1’s, CJ5’s and 1 YJ. Most off road folks are GREAT and will do anything they can to help so I just don’t see Bashing all the Jeep people because of 1 JA who’s probably never been off-road

I couldn’t agree more! I’m not saying all Jeep owners are assholes. I was just commenting on the experience I had with one owner. How this thread became a bashing of the entire off-roaring community and/or all Jeep owners is beyond me.

Well, thank you for proving my point. You can't say "not jeep owners in particular" but then say "becasue they were a Jeep owner". You sir, have a bias against Jeep owners, whether you think so or not. You ran into a someone who was just a jerk, and you are associating it with the car he drives, without a shred of evidence.

I’m sure there is a new Bronco owner out there that will do the same, because he feels special because he got his before everyone else and deserves 3 parking spaces so the rip-rap doesn’t ding his “$60,000” rig.
