I think this thread made me develop a condition; for some reason my eyes keep rolling... repeatedly.

No sir, not defensive... annoyed... Now tho, I'll get defensive! Everyone knows Jeeps are abundant, everyone knows lots of people like them, want to own one, has owned one... so there will be several sightings of people in Jeeps practicing idiotic behavior, which is inherent of ALL people. Likewise, if someone went from driving a Civic to an FJ they may want to get it offroad in the city in some sense and end up in the same situation - equally stupid. I heard it said, Tone (rest his soul) single handedly tarnished the view of VXers by other Isuzu folk. If you heard someone bashing VXers because of a run-in with Tone, or anyone else for that matter, wouldn't you be annoyed? If a pic of a stuck VX ended up on an Integra forum and everyone decided to bash the lot of us, would you not be annoyed? You were annoyed at hearing how goofy 4-door sports cars are... Now, if that crap was aimed at generalized version of you at every turn by a group you belong to, how would you view those people? I bet you would be annoyed and view them as unclever children.
For all we know, some VX owning, paintballing kid took dad's Jeep out one night and got it stuck in the mud. So if you replace "some Jeepers" with "some people" and keep things 'all encompassing' that way instead, you'd all make a little more sense.
But the "oh another Jeeper doing the Jeep thing"... I mean seriously, where is your imagination? It's like repeating a joke everyone has already heard... or in effect, it's like driving a Jeep... "unoriginal."
All I know is that I wanna be 'godlike' cool & drive a jeep just like my bud Zeus.
Of course, I'd want 44s on it so I'd never get stuck (thin excuse for compensating).
Actually, I like Jeeps. I just don't need any more projects for the next 10-15 years.

Put a smiley after you say that Bub.
I have nothing against Jeeps, or Toys or any other 4x4 (except the overly lifted mall queens) and wheel with any one. That being said it is fun to goof about other makes and there capabilities. On the other hand if it were not for the styling uniqueness of the VX I would probably be in a Jeep or a Toy. Great capabilities (after you replace all those jeep parts (J/K)), great aftermarket and can look pretty damn cool. What other vehicle can you lift 2 inches, and with a comp cut and flat fendered, run 40+ inch tires?

Dude, you're going to have to keep up! 54" tires are where its at nowadays! The cool thing is no matter what you put them on, you get an offset from Hell!
Haha, Billy, I'm with you. I wheel with anyone anywhere as long as what I am driving will make it.. and sometimes not make it! :P It's more fun wheeling different rigs with different rigs too. Every obstacle has a different look and feel and has to be approached slightly varied depending on the rig and blah blah blah... I guess I should just drop the labels so that I'm no longer annoyed - I am a "Jeeper" no more, I am a "VXer" no more, I am a "full-sizer" no more... I am now simply an open minded hippie redneck who loves trail riding in multiple machines. Now who wants to buy my Wrangler and VX?
I hope it doesn't come across that I am all bent out of shape on the matter, as I know its a simple joke... it's just a lame one and I have been chugging coffee all day and the boss is gone so I get to hang out here all day and torment all of you people!
Exactly.
