Well done baby 😉

Hopefully she'll be able to tell the difference when she's dating!!! LOL.

…and the worst part about it is they weren’t even joking. WTF? :mad:
In some areas of the globe, the word "jeep" is applied as a general term for a 4x4. Kind of like kleenex for tissues. For example, I recall in some old episodes of Dr. Who, members of UNIT referred to a Series Land Rover as a "jeep".

Completely checks out. Just about 50% of people have a 2 digit IQ

Put the bucking bronco est 1966 tire cover on the back and you will get zero confusion.

Two guys asked me today if mine was a special edition. Said it looked so different to the ones they’d seen.

wouldn't bother me one bit, I'd just say thanks and move on with my day, LOL. For anyone not into cars what else would it look like? It's not like you see lots of old Broncos on the road, but lots of Jeeps. Big tire on back, roof off, maybe doors off. Majority of people aren't "car" people to begin with (neither am I, really). So if someone complements my ride, I'll just be happy, no need to educate them in something they have little interest in to begin with. Nice they noticed and liked it, not that that really matters to me either. I bought it for me, not for others. And I'm having more fun with it than I thought, and I haven't even taken it off road yet (nothing much around where I live).

Plus I like the Wrangler too (only thing from Jeep that I like though).

Maybe some people like to have fun with it. Like asking the driver if a Porsche what year is his Miata.

The 6G looks exactly like a Jeep from behind. I’ve just gotten to the point where I can tell them apart when I’m following one from a distance. Any other angle (even the slightest peek of the side) removes all doubt. Neither look anything like a 2020+ Defender from any angle. .

My favorite was "That's the biggest Jeep I've every seen!"
