Dude, you weren't the first to stir the pot and certainly will not be the last. Just check out the "religion themed" threads or there was one poll or something about legalizing pot smoking, another about politics, etc. It's going to happen because this isn't TV or upclose and personal face to face stuff. Things are taken out of context all the time on the internet.......thats why some smart person invented the emoticons. They help make up for that lack of real time effect! At least you held your ground and did not disappear into oblivion like some.

Whoa. Panties in a bunch alert.
I wasn't judging you, that's the point. I'm not against Saharas. I actually think they're awesome because they keep the Jeep brand alive by bringing in the non-traditional Jeep owner. The non-traditional Jeep owner is the one I have an issue with. They're a little clueless. But a necessary evil.

The problem this world all to often suffers from is people like yourself who pre-judge others based upon nothing but your narrow-minded pre-conceptions. My JK is reasonably modded to do what I currently need it to do. That includes lift, winch, snorkel, safari rack being made as I type, muds, onboard air and a 100 other mods which I'll not bother you with. I work in finance at present and my Jeep is my daily driver, much to the annoyance of my colleagues who fought me tooth and nail to get a company BMW or Merc... and lost..
But I wonder how many people like you pass me each day, see me wearing a suit and tie and driving a super clean/polished modded Jeep, on my way to a client, and immediately throw me into the same kind of bracket you would?
Here's an idea. Go drive ya Jeep and get some friends. It'll stop you sitting in your room worrying about 'non-traditional' Jeep drivers that you may or may not have seen down the mall. ;-)

So you're the 'traditional' Jeep driver? OOOOKKKK.... I've driven Jeeps for over 20 years, from CJs to TJs and now JKs. Have driven them in nearly 40 countries all round the world, on road and off, many of which would never have even heard of a mall let alone a soccer mom. I currently drive a modded Sahara...

Actually, it's a good debate for many, I think. As the Sex Pistols said: 'don't judge a book just by it's cover, lest you cover just another..' :-)
BTW, on iPhone Tapatalk so emoticons won't work for me..;-)

Well it is cooler than a Honda Pilot. I say buy up! By the way, if that was the original statement you were going for you could have probably said "Anyone else irritated by the non-offroad crowd?" rather than labeling one Jeep this or that.
It's our job as Jeep owners to educate other Jeep owners in the wave and all fun things that go along with a Jeep.
You are also obviously sensitive by the fact you feel your are judged by your dirty Jeep. Probably shouldn't have gotten a JK because most people driving TJ and older are judging you for it. (Like my husband does me )
Next time you see someone with doors and top on, ask them when the last time they've taken them off. If they haven't, suggest they try it and see how fun it is!
All about spreading the word and love!
