Thought I was seeing things and my wife was crazy.

A week ago here in the great northwest my wife was driving the bronco. A jeep 4 door wrangler pulls up next to her and stays at her side for a little while, suddenly he pulls away and gets in front of her then hits the breaks. Of course speeds away afterwards. I don't think much about it really Because I figured my wife did something goofy that upset the fool.

Yesterday I'm coming back from my son's flag football game and Pass a wrangler going the opposite direction. The guy flips me off I think.. He's holding on to the wheel and drops the middle finger down. Not positive that's what he's doing but pretty sure lol. The wife says I'm just looking into it wrong. Maybe so..

Well today the wife was flipped off twice by two different wranglers the same exact way I was lol. She tells me I'm not crazy lol.

So what's the deal with the wrangler folks acting like fools towards bronco owners.

Eh, a handful is not representative as a whole.

I will say that I personally have never encountered an idiot Wrangler owner out on the trail. Everyone I have ran into on the trail have been fantastic people.

The Wrangler owners in the Walmart parking lot… however… those people be crazy.

As a former owner of a JLU I’m noticing two things really. Either they stare (presumably in awe) or they purposely look away or down. The latter happens probably 80% of the time.

When I pull up next to another Bronco with my top and doors off all covered in mud, they usually look down or away too.

It's the Jeepers that bought it for the image. We crashed their party and they feel threatened.
I thought Samurai owners bought those for the image? :unsure:

That's what I have been seeing most of the time too.

They're flipping you off but it takes two hands on the wheel to keep a Wrangler on the road.

Yesterday I'm coming back from my son's flag football game and Pass a wrangler going the opposite direction. The guy flips me off I think.. He's holding on to the wheel and drops the middle finger down. Not positive that's what he's doing but pretty sure lol. The wife says I'm just looking into it wrong. Maybe so..

I'd agree with this one, the people on the trail are always cool and welcoming and don't give a shit about what you're in (unless it's a Prius).

It's the Jeep (trx/raptor/chevy/hummer/whatever) owners that are stuck on the streets that can be sometimes twatwaffle-esque.

It’s not jeepers, it’s where you live that’s an issue.

All the more reason to have a dash cam.

The majority of Bronco owners are in that group too but we're not ready for that conversation.
