    It means you dont need to shit on a random interest. What did rock crawlers and off-roaders do to you?

    Be as interested in Jeeps as you like.

    Saying you're part of a culture because you bought something (especially something prohibitively expensive) is not something I will do anything but mock.

    I don't hear about "Mercedes Culture" or "Nissan Culture." Probably because people way into those cars understand that it isn't a culture just to be into a car.

      Fuck this shit. I don't even want to ever buy a newer car these days. Too much invasive bullshit.

        Reducing peoples interests to consumerism is your culture i guess.

        If i buy a mountain bike is my culture a mountain biker? How often do i have to ride to be justified in thay belief? How often do i have to post online about bikes? How many hours of youtube do i need to watch of mountain biking?

        Jeeps do things normal passenger vehicles dont and people creating a community of interest on that basis is valid.

          If you call mountain biking a culture, I'll mock you for that too. Because it's a hobby, not a culture.

          Something isn't a culture just because you and your friends want to base your identities around it.

            I've not heard of Jeep culture, myself, so now I'm going to imagine a colony of asexually-reproducing microscopic Jeeps in a Petri dish.

            Today, O Squid, you have broadened my imagination beyond yesterday.

              I would have much greater interest in microscopic Jeeps that could reproduce. I probably wouldn't even mock them. Unless they were jerks.

                Now you're just being pedantic. If you're while argument was based on the usage of the word "culture" i think you could have made that point more clear lol.

                Obviously you were talking about the validity of assembling for the interest of the Jeep brand.

                For a professional lemming your performance hasnt been stellar this morning.

                    Want there also something about showing ads while your show is paused now too?

                    I'm ready to go back to kodi.

                      I've known several Jeep owners over the last decade and those that weren't buying it strictly for the 'Jeep clout' as an actual vehicle/daily driver had constant issues, while under warranty, and dealt with issues even trying to get said warranty work done.
                      Like that wasn't enough for me, on top of that I had a mechanic with his own shop that said he'd never touch another Jeep because of how horribly they are designed to work on. Anything from ease of access to work on the engine to bolts stripping out because they were overtorqued during assembly and made with shit metals that would sooner melt than come off in one piece.
                      Now this? Yeah, hope they go bankrupt. This is just as bad as BMW and their 'pay a subscription for seat warmers' bullshit.

                      dodge in general did not do well on realiability, Thing is they have neat engineering. So I loved the grand caravan but they killed it to try and get folks to pay toyota prices for their shit and its like no. You vehicles have to be ten grand cheaper so that you amoratize the repair bills.

                        There's just no way I'm ever going to do this.

                        Honestly, I'd rather go forage for twigs and berries than interact with ads.

                        I haven't seen an ad in like 15 years or so (at home) and i already find them incredibly dystopian and weird. I don't really understand how people put up with that right now, but it kind of tells me that they would actually do the laola wave and yell pepsi at their screen.
                        I found my old VHS collection the other day and watched karate kid that i recorded as a child. I think it had 2 ad breaks who were really short, and back then we thought that it's getting a bit much with the ads.

                          I find it weird in general when people compliment things that i had nothing to do with. Like: nice tattoo. Thanks, i sat there for a bit and then it was done.
                          I had a girlfriend who treated her car like she designed and build it herself. I even made a joke once where i said exactly that and je just cold heatedly said: she does that too. Like if someone would insult her car, she would take that very personally.

                            Stellantis, the parent company of Jeep, Dodge, Chrysler, and Ram,

                            Not just a Jeep thing.

                                Well if thats what you really meant then i applaud your ability to leverage how obtuse you are. It certainly seems to have proven you dont need to be clear about what you are saying to win an argument on lemmy.

                                  You could have asked for clarification rather than just been aggressive this entire time, but your insults are noted.

                                      Thank you for telling me what my goal is. It's something else I was entirely unaware of.

                                      And then I milked the misunderstanding too! Wow!

                                      Tell me, how do you know all these things about me that I am completely in the dark about?

                                        This, exactly this.
                                        The fact that they would even consider this rules them out for me forever.

                                          I completely crossed off all GM cars due to lack of CarPlay. I am boycotting Tesla. I don’t trust BMW because they tried to make heated seats a subscription. Now Jeep and Stellantis?

                                          Something to consider...

                                          Elon may be going down a conservative rabbit hole these days, but this is the sort of thing Tesla would never ever ever do. And things like using the telematic system to sell your location and speed to insurance companies. Never happened on a Tesla.
                                          You may not like the guy, but the cars are fucking solid.
