Jeep Introduces Pop-Up Ads That Appear Every Time You Stop
-
Now hold on there, I'd let them do the ads and the vehicle tracking bs if the car was nice and it was free.
If I'm buying the car, there's no fucking way.

If the jeep even makes it to 36k.

I mean fark.com is still kicking, last I checked. I feel like some of these old sites are the web equivalent of BIFL products.
-
Note to self: Donβt buy a Jeep.
And if the only way you remember that is by a strong hook and bass line, I've got you covered.

The really funny thing is that the only reason I even know about Barbara Streisand is because of that picture.

I don't recommend anyone buy a Jeep, not because of the ads but because they're built like shit. Quality has been in free fall for decades while prices have skyrocketed. Death wobble issues (Wranglers), motor reliability out the window, rust, more rust, just not worth it.
I owned a 94 Cherokee and I loved it, and even though that 4.0L straight 6 had problems at least it would still run with bad piston rings, mysterious battery drain and holes in my radiator. The new ones just can't compete.

Oh don't be silly. It was YOU who got distracted! The laws are for thee, not me!

Oh this is the first time I've seen this wiki in the wild, neat!

I don't understand how this is related to the Streisand Effect. The Streisand Effect is when you try to suppress unflattering info about yourself, and in the process you call attention to it, so now everyone knows. But we didn't learn about this through Jeep trying to suppress the info, we just learned about it from people who saw the ads.

I work in the auto industry. Can confirm, Stellantis is in bad shape. I wouldn't buy anything from them.

I had two Jeeps, first was originally my dad's. It was an old shitbox. The other one was a somewhat old shitbox. 1998 & 2010. We dumped more time and money into them than I'd care to admit.

"Check Engine light on again? Check out the new 2027 Jeep Wagoneer! You'll definitely get more miles out of the new one compared to the 2025 model thats now broken"

I dunno man. Harrison Ford made it sound like it was more rewarding than raising children and more important than world peace. You gonna turn your back on what seems to be something more fulfilling to Harrison Ford than religion just because it's an inferior product and it's pushing ads in your face like a free playstore game?

Yup. Keeping old cars going on fossil fuels is so much better than millions of new cars being built every year, and in order for them to be built they ship them around the world to seperate facilities. I could go on and on
