driving/wheeling a lifted jeep/truck for the "image"

[wannabejeep]

I do it a bit for the image to be honest, but if I could get it running at like 80% or even 65% and not smell like dead chipmunks I'd beat the shit out of it on some boulders.

[Magilla]

on my jeeps i do not care if i feel like hitting something like rocks trees kitties signs and children i do

mustangs i abuse them drive train wise but not the exterior same for my truck

[offrdyj87]

i want to bounce my jeep off boulders but 1) i cant find any boulders to bounce it off and 2) it would suck to break something because its my DD and i'm on a highschooler's budget. i do enjoy wrenching on my jeep and i will admit that i do take pride in my jeep's appearance. i don't see why you cant have a nice looking vehicle that's also functional

[Bigbike]

I love wrenching on my jeep and wheeling the piss out of it, hitting rocks and trees and what not, but I also like driving in a lifted vehicle, it show off what you can do, I can DD my trail rig but I choose not too.

[Henchman]

x I love wheeling, but dont want my Jeep looking like a piece of shit.

I love wheeling and having a challenge but I don't want it to end up all beat to shit. I like a clean rig but minor scratches and dents don't bother me.

[XJLI]

mine goes off the road into ditches by itself

yup, mine has done that once or twice, and almost done it many times.

[JoeNitro]

i have a car to DD. i purposly built my jeep to fuck shit up. it looks like it does cuz i cant care any less what it looks like, i just wanna fuckin wheel....

[glockrock]

DD

don't you need a tax stamp :per device!!

[Lycaon]

i try to keep my jeep looking nice. my build is based on practicality, therefore ive been spending most of my build time lately making it more on road capable because its my dd and because my 19 month old son rides in it. i know what it can do offroad and its perfectly capable in those respects and now my focus is to make it look and feel better around town

[Quartney]

My jeeps lack of wheeling is due to finance issues. But still as long as I'm still paying 400 dollars a month and don't actually own it I'm not destroying it. He'll even after that I'm not "destroying" it. I waited a long long time for it and wanna keep it. People who freak out about a baby scratch on an offroading vehicle are ridiculous. But someone just wanting to take care of their car isn't.

[skippy]

good times. it doesn't do it as much now that i disconnected the ABS
but it must be the image i'm going for..nose down in a ditch on the side of the road..or bouncing all over 84 with no brakes cuz of the wobble
driving my jeep is such an adventure.

This is fair.
Everyone who said they keep their jeep nice and make it capable is probably the closest response as how I feel. Why the hell would you build a truck just to smash it up to make it look hardcore. Apathy in vehicles is stupid.
This excludes the guys who smash it wheeling hard and rebuilding stronger. That, I find respectable.

[Saharicon]

I dont really know what to make of my jeep

[Buffalo Phil]

ugh.

It's only apathy in Cosmetics, we don't go wheeling with two halves of a 4.0 hot glued together or with the muffler wrapped around the axle and sticking up into the Cab.

Dents are going to happen offroad, you have to either learn to get used to them or you fix each and every one.

I understand that, and that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about wheeling your jeep strictly for the purpose of trashing it. I mean, do you purposely drive into rocks for character? Well, did you at first anyhow?
