FABULOUS SUSPENSION BABE!

View Quote I got a feeling if the guy in the OP got one of those he'd be driving an Outback the next day. |

So glad I drive a Toyota.
Sending this to my buddy with a Jeep. |

The first time I clicked the link it took me to an AR building reel from Brownells. Second time it took me to the bucket of ducks guy.

Had my Gladiator for over a year, no ducks, no fucks given.
But….. Last weekend a young lady (8 yrs old or so) from my neighborhood walked up to me with a big smile and handed me a duck. Until that point, I had swore I wouldn’t play that game. With a big smile I thanked her and told her she was the first to give me one. She skipped away with a big smile. I guess I’m playing that game now. At least it was for a good cause…. |

The jeep wave was something before wranglers, when there were only a few surviving cj5s cj7s and the occasional cj8 on thw road. You waved maybe once a week or month, but there's nothing cool about 870000 wranglers in your town and waving to each and every one. Now it's just lame, like a guy with a fake biker gang vest on.
And the duck is gay and very appropriate. |

Quoted: I have numerous friends with Jeeps. It's been a war for the last 13 years since we became friends View Quote I'm very familiar. About 2/3 of my friends are Toyota guys and the rest are a mix, but mostly Jeep guys. One of my best friends just dumped his Tacoma for his dad's old Jeep 2-door a couple of months ago, so I've been teasing the crap out of him. We'll be taking it to Hidden Falls at some point when he gets everything he needs done to it. It was already lifted with 33s and he added a Warn M8000 to it. I need to fix my 4x4 actuator before I take my Tacoma out wheeling again (it sticks going in and out of 4LO/4HI). Attached File |

Just got a couple of ducks from Temu for some friends jeeps. Sporting shades, cowboy hat and a gold AK slung around their neck.
Speaking of Jeeps, everyone does realize being conceived in the back of a Jeep doesn’t make you Cherokee, right? |

I have ducks in my jeep. I don’t really care for them, but they don’t bother me. My wife loves them. She got the first 2 ducks while she was driving my jeep while her vehicle was in the shop.

No ducks in the 15 years of driving a Wrangler.
ETA: 11 years for the wife and no ducks either. |
|
What about making it an easter egg hunt and hide them in places, like in the engine bay or brakes?
|
|
|
Never get any ducks either.
Of course its because I have a IH Scout II. We just toss the empty beer cans and oil jugs in through the rust holes. |

As for the duck game in general, it doesn’t hurt anything, there is a sense of camaraderie among the owners and kids get a kick out of it . Whats not to like about rubber ducks ? |

When I had my TJ there was a period after the JK was introduced where hardly any of the drivers did the wave.. I was fine with it. It got tiring and I remember catching the edge of a shitty look from some drivers when I didn't bother to flip them at least two fingers.
I sold my TJ in 2017 and the ducks were still not a thing. I never received, gave, or saw one. |

A good friend of mine still has his 350 Chevy powered CJ-7 and decided he’d like to do the same to a wrangler only use a LSx. Thing turned out awesome, he put a couple of these on the windows

Quoted: It's mostly JK/JKUs in my experience. I sold mine so no more ducks for me. There's a strong correlation between how modded you are and quantities of ducks, up to a point. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Are these ducks reserved for four door Jeeps? It's mostly JK/JKUs in my experience. I sold mine so no more ducks for me. There's a strong correlation between how modded you are and quantities of ducks, up to a point. That would explain it. In my 37 yrs of driving Jeeps, it's been CJ's, J trucks, and TJ/LJ's. If not for ARFCOM, I wouldn't even know about the duck thing. |

View Quote Square headlight Jeeps are already gay so adding ducks gives a double dose of the gay. Newman can’t see shit cuz of those gaylights. |

i got ducked in my stock 2005lj by some jk owner and it made me sick.
i miss my xj snow machine |

I'm convinced that 1 of 10000 is actually a gift duck, and the rest are self ducking.

I had a 2000 Jeep Wrangler until I bought my Tacoma in 2018.
Must have been pre duck. A lot of people did wave to me thou. Not a fan of waving, and really hate it when I'm on my bike. |

Quoted: People leave ribeye steaks on my "Jeep" I still get the Jeep wave from those who do not know any better https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/16476/04F4F5CF-69C0-4598-B57E-476863EAF4CF-3073409.jpg View Quote |

I have been ducked several times i just give them to kids, last summer was the most interesting as it had a card tied around its neck and had a qr code that went to the TikTok of the person who left it. It was a lesbian couple having their daughter put them on jeeps and making TikTok's of it.

I took it to the local Hooters for lunch Sunday and if I was 25 and not 65 I could have bought a lot of the waitresses for a ride. I am also on the @PhuzzyGnu team |

Found how ducking started....
It was 2020 in a small-town gas station parking lot in Ontario, Canada. Jeep Ducking all began when a woman named Allison Parliament, from a small town in the Canadian province of Ontario, unknowingly started a kindness movement when she placed a rubber ducky on a fellow Jeep after a spat with someone earlier. The duck craze has now swept throughout the Jeep enthusiast community in the United States as well as in nearly a dozen other countries around the world. |
