What happened today probably put the biggest smile on my face. I figured i would post this here because it has to do with wranglers

I drove to work top down and doors off. I parked in the space that was directly in front of my window so i can look at my jeep when I'm bored lol. Well about 15 minutes ago this mom and her two kids leave the pool and her 5 year old son becomes infatuated with my jeep. I watched him through the window for a lil bit as he walked around my jeep crawled under it and tellin' his mom how cool it is. I walk out of my lil booth to go talk to them and he keeps telling his mom that he wants one. I let him sit in the driver seat and let him climb around in it and started it up and let him rev the engine a couple times. The smile on this kids face must have been ear to ear. His mom told me that he's been real sad because his father left them and that this really cheered him up. It felt real good to help that lil guy feel better and hopefully turn him into another jeeper.

Sorry for the long read. Has somethin similar ever happened to you?

cool story, I love it when little kids say "cool Jeep mister".
Get some of those replies from the big kids too.

Maybe she will come by again if your lucky, you should have gotten moms number. Very cool story the kid will probably be talking about that for a long time to come.

X2......Maybe she needs a little cheering up. You can always take her for a ride if she comes back, Maybe she will return the ride favor

nice story, i love to drive in front of a store and watch kids point and tell mommy/daddy to look at the monster jeep

Nothing quite like that happens to me... But, 9 times out of 10 somebody in a group of people in the Wal-Mart parking lot will point, causing the rest of their group to turn and look. I would like to say it is typically little kids or cute women, but more times than not its the guys who point and talk.
