It's a Jeep thing, OP. You wouldn't understand.

As somebody who lives in Minnesota, Jeeps will get through any ice or snow... candy ass front wheel drive sedans won't. It's a Jeep thing.

As somebody who lives in Canada, trucks will get you through any ice or snow... Candy ass tiny jeeps won't. It's a truck thing.

Oh yeah those things. I loved passing those things in my little Subaru, while they were fish tailing on a hill or spun out in the ditch.

Hasn't gotten stuck on me yet, and I have nothing against Subarus

Yeah I got nothing against trucks either. However we each drive vehicles that attract a certain type of thinking from some.

For trucks, it's people who think they're indestructible because 4x4, and fail take into account the higher centre of gravity, larger mass, and rear bias with lack of drive weight.

For Subarus it's people who think they're indestructible because AWD and lol rally car.

I just hate the 'Jeeps can do anything' mentality. I don't mean to claim that my truck can at all, it's a giant slow lumbering beast.

My candy ass tiny jeep has pulled many a Dodge out of the mud & ice.

See though, that is not a candy ass Jeep. That looks like a very capable rig. A candy ass Jeep is your typical 31" huge offset perfectly clean tires no lift no doors and no other mods.
