    Nuh uh! Only 90% are that way… the rest are men who buy into how “sporty” they are.:-)

    I did love watching a video of a tiny Subaru Crosstrek able to do as well as a tow truck - it’s not just about power, but tire traction grip.

    Also people who don’t buy into the whole “truck=manly” schtick.

    But definitely 90% soccer moms too ofc.:-P

      I drive a 91 Cherokee and I defend myself because I like Jeeps and cherokees are easy to work on. I would kill for an old 70s military Jeep truck though, hell id commit genocide for one of those old boxed Willy Jeeps they find in the gods forsaken deep storage of places like the Sierra Army Depot.

        I mean, you could probably build one… no need for the genocide at all;-P.

          Rebuild one, the few that are still in the boxes are given to museums not psychotic Rednecks. On more realistic levels though I think it’d be neat to get an old willy Jeep body and convert it to electric, theyre light enough that a squad of men can pick them up so I figure they may actually lose weight without an engine depending on the battery type.

            That would actually be pretty cool. Not that a new in box one wouldn’t be pretty cool, too.

            That would be awesome! I love classic Jeeps, especially the Willy’s era - if you actually ever manage to do this, I hope you make a video journal and share it somewhere.
