I needed that, almost spilled my coffee at work.

I've watched it too many times in loops, her accent is just perfect... will have to make a reply clip of that with my *winch bitch* falling of the truck.....
From what I can tell, the car has no door because it wants to be a World War I US Army vehicle. An oldschool Range Rover would be a much cooler thing to emulate ;)
I'll be honest, the dismissive nature of the advertising annoys me. "It's a Jeep thing" implies "You're stupid, wouldn't understand, and it would take far too long to explain to you, now go away please."
My older cousin actually DID fall out of a jeep while driving when he was a teenager. After his friend in the passenger's seat was fighting with him to try and take the wheel away and they flipped the vehicle off the road. He ended up in Shock Trauma with a major near-death injury and came out of it with a personality shift that basically ruined his life.
Don't do jeeps, kids.

Hmmm, well..... to each their interpretation, i've not perceive the It's a Jeep thing, that way.... :-\
There's bunch of video on youtube called like that where you see group of jeep owners riding and having a great time or other people playing in huge mud holes, snow, pits... whatever. I think it relates more to stuff being done with Jeeps....
Sorry about that...

Sounds like even if they had doors they would have run into badlucks..... fighting for a steering wheel while rolling, in any vehicule can lead to injury.

When I was a 19 year-old idiot I flipped my jeep on an old gravel road with a couple friends riding along. We were drinking all day and I lost control driving like a fool. I sustained worse injuries than the others and for that I am thankful. It could have been really tragic. It is one of the biggest regrets of my life that still haunts me over 20 years later.

More or less my point. The vehicle was unsafe in almost every way, never mind how stupid his friend was being.
I'm teaching my 14 year old to drive right now with my jeep. I showed her this thread and she laughed, and then it got serious.... She was in a hurry to get that jeep and rip the doors and top off. She's having second thoughts now.
Slightly dissapointed as I thought the thread was going to be about... ;)

Gotcha!
To be honest, a Jeep ain't the safest vehicule out there, especially on pavement roads....it can roll over any time if you go too fast and turn quick.... but responsible driving and knowing your limits and the limits of your vehicule can take that out of the equation, unfortunately it's those two aspects that are more than often not respected and turn out into nightmares.
I closed my trucker log books, after 7 year of driving them at 2.3Million kilometers driven.... with no responsible accident, nor injury. If i cummulate my leisure vehicule driving experience i have over a million kilometers driven in those aswell with no accidents, just one speeding ticket in so far 14years of driving. You can always have fun and push the limits, longs a you actually know what your're doing and not threaten the life of others by your behavior..... and that you're vehicule is in good mechanical condition, trash car are the worst thing out there...

That's good!
Another thing, wear seatbelts. Never understood the fascination with not wearing one...
seatbelts? grew up not wearing them because the cars didn't have them and I'm not THAT old. I didn't start wearing one until work started requiring it then it became habit at home too.
I don't feel particularly secure in a car even with a 3 point belt, because they simply don't hold you as well as a harness. I feel naked in a car without a belt of some description. I drive classic cars occasionally, but that's different as that's the nature of them. But any modern car I couldn't be in it without a belt. I've been involved in enough accidents myself and witnessed some brutal crashes on track that I can't imagine being without one.

You have cars with no seatbelts? :o How's that even possible? The things have been mandatory over here as far as I can remember and I am THAT old. No car is even allowed on the road unless it got seatbelts. Even for the passengers in the back.

We're not required to retrofit seatbelts onto older cars in the US. So if you own a car that wasn't made with them originally, you don't have have them.

But its not like there are a bunch of people are running around recklessly in 50 year old cars. Most of those are collected now and babied. ...and then there's the gun racks....

Doesn't matter how safe you drive, if the other guy drives like a madman you're still toast.

Of course. How could I forget. You live in the country that probably takes better care of its guns in its cars then its people.

Driving while texting, nickleback blasting, jesus riding shotgun, and a sixer of schlitz! Seatbelts just complicate the road head. :P
