I am painting my jeep like the Jurassic Park jeeps. I don’t care what girls think
You are unclear on the concept of impressing girls, we understand that.
I’m glad this thread is a joke. Most of the people I’ve ever seen driving a jeep have been female. I knew one guy with one, though. Might as well impress a girl by driving a Fit or Yaris.
Like many common personals things, its not the Harley, its that you can afford a Harley and all the overpriced crap that orbits it that matters for those ads.
I have to say, having seen the reactions, that a Lamborghini or other equivilant several hundreds of thousands of dollars sportscar does indeed attract many females, and females of the sort than most men would want to attract (as opposed to those attracted to a Harley). A Jeep? No, not unless she just happens to be a Jeep fan. Which could work.
In an off-road vehicle, though, there are a lot of advantages to automatic gearboxes if you will actually be doing hard-core off-roading. I know off-road enthusiasts who swear by automatics for the real slow crawling-through-boulder-strewn-canyons/riverbeds/etc type of off-roading.

Wrong, but you have to know how to work three pedals at the same time.
To the OP’s question… Probably not.
The only way to attract the right girl, or the right kind of girls for you, is to be exactly who you are. Any attempts to be someone you are not, in order to attract girls are doomed to failure, because:
- you won’t be as good as being you aren’t as you would be at being who you are.
- you won’t attract girls who like who you really are. In fact, they’ll be put off.
In other words, in a world where you didn’t think about girls at all - you’re gay/there are no girls/you’re married but need a car - what kind of car would you get? If the answer is ‘a Jeep painted like the Jeeps in Jurassic Park’, then I think you should just go for it and be happy with it.
When I met The Love Of My Life, Ms. Attack I had an beat up Toyota Truck, the greatest vehicle of all time, a Rocinante of a truck. She liked it. I don’t think it was a factor in her decision to marry me, but it was cute when we drove away in it after the wedding, all festooned with ribbons and such.
Good Luck
Dude, there’s only one thing you need to impress chicks: cash.
You don’t need a Jeep you will have them flocking toward you because of the OP.
Ironically, by my calculations it is now legal to start dating girls who were not born before Jurassic Park was released (1993).
Then why are you so darn good at it?
I remember Harley when it sold motor bikes instead of being a clothing retail chain.
Our OP is PSXer. I had to look it up, but apparently PSX is a gaming console PSX - Wikipedia .
I’m a geezer and I recall Jurrasic Park was hot for all of 20 minutes when it came out nearly 20 years ago.
I’m not seein’ a Jurrasic Wrangler as a chick magnet for a gamer.
My wife had a Wrangler for awhile & was active with the local Jeep girls club (which seems to have disbanded). If The OP likes independent-minded mostly-chunky outdoorsy chicks, that might work. But they’d probably back over your PSX on way out of your life a week later.
But they (Jeeps and girls) are a lot of fun. Everybody should own a 7-10 year old beater jeep for a couple years, preferably while they’re still under 30. And ride some under-30 girls …
And everybody should know how to drive a stick. And a manual too!
Go for it. But don’t expect women to give a rat’s; they just aren’t that into cars. Unless they’re not quite old enough to drive, and you are.
Because I’m just inherently awesome. In fact there’s a naked chick in my hotel room right now. (ok, it’s my serious girlfriend and we’re getting dressed for a friends weding in a few hours.)
yeah that is pretty boring
I was thinking more something like this

also maybe I could just get the color and design without the JP logo
And for gawds sake don’t ever use this line once you get your Dino Jeep:
Hey baby, wanna go for a ride and I’ll show you my Velociraptor?
the raptor pen isn’t on the tour as far as I know

You’re entitled to your opinion, but there is nothing factually incorrect about what I said.
Maybe you could strike “a lot of” from my initial statement, but that’s it.
And if you have trouble believing that off-road enthusiasts swear by automatics for rock-crawling situations, you can read the opinions here.
And so on. I used to freelance for a number of off-roading publications, and the opinions in the message board above are representative of what I came across from serious off-road enthusiasts. A lot of drivers preferred manual for the fun and skill involved in using it effectively but admitted that automatics were better for many (if not most) off-roading situations.
