Will I impress more girls if I get a Jeep?

My daily driver is a 1997 Jeep Wrangler w/ 4.0 engine and manual transmission. I put about 100 miles a day on it. So far, the girls haven’t noticed. Probably because I’m a bald, 40-something guy. :stuck_out_tongue:

FYI, driving a Wrangler is only for the hardcore. They are *very *noisy and very uncomfortable. (I wear ear muffs to attenuate the noise.) You also can’t haul anything in them. And they’re not very reliable.

Wow. All that AND they don’t attract girls. Are you sure you don’t work for Jeep Public Relations?

:smiley:

If I was a girl I’d be impressed by a jeep. In fact if you get one then I might have a sex change just to sleep with you then change back after.

I’m going to have to argue about them not being reliable. Jeeps run forever. Small parts may break on them here and there, but nothing that ever keeps it from running.

How can a bald, old guy wearing earmuffs while driving his 15 year old jeep NOT be a total pussy magnet?

Only if he has lots of open cans of tuna in the back…:stuck_out_tongue:

Me too, but only IF it was painted like the jeeps in Jurassic park. Not the puke green jeeps on the ride, but the orange ones from Jurassic Park 1.

But the fact that you think a new car will help you, and even took the time to ask strangers on an internet board, means you have significant issues, that may be keeping you from success with women. Maturity, maybe? How about self-esteem? or talking to women, getting to know them as friends, going out with them… (and asking THEM your Jeep question).

Oh, and ask them if you’ll impress them with a fake tan, or a zodiac medallion, or a comb-over, or Grecian Formula, or Rogaine, or Enzyte.

Hopefully the OP doesn’t need a comb-over, Grecian Formula, or Rogaine. Enzyte is straight-out!

He’s probably talking about the electrics. The Wrangler’s electrical system is practically British.

Wow. How old are you?

Do you really want a girl that’s impressed by you owning a Jeep?

I’d have to believe that you’re looking for teenagers with a vehicle like that.

And a shallow teenager than that.

Most teens I know would read the OP and say “Eeeeeew…he’s like a stalkerish macho poser.”
Then, a couple of minutes later, “Totally.”

Handy free advice:
If you do find yourself on a date, under NO circumstances can you EVER let her see this thread. Do NOT let it slip that you EVER thought about buying a vehicle to “impress girls”.

Unless it’s a hardtop with AC, I don’t recommend taking a Jeep on a date in the first place.

I drive a chick magnet. In fact, it is everything you could possibly imagine a chick magnet car to be: cute, sexy, fast, highly customized, rare, exotic, convertible, foreign, etc.

When I drive down the street people yell “Nice CAR!!!” At almost every gas station someone will come up to me and talk about the car. I have been offered sums of money at stop lights. Cops slow down and shadow me just to stare at it. Thousands of hours and dollars have been poured all over this car and it shows. This is all true.

So, as a middle aged man in a hot car, allow me to point out:

You are a creepy pedo loser.
You are a greedy, arrogant asshole.
You have a small dick.
You have self esteem issues.
Your bank account is bigger than your brain.
Your wife dumped you for the pool boy.
You are having a mid life crisis and dumped your wife and children.
You can’t commit to any relationship. Ever.
You are a child-man.

This is how you are perceived. Not by everyone, just by most. It doesn’t matter that I drive the car for sheer love, that it’s the third one I’ve owned, that it is my hobby. I’m a creep.

Also. Where exactly will you hang out by your cool vehicle and pick up women? The gas station? The side of the road? It’s not easy to pick up chicks doing 60mph, yelling out the window. Even if your town has a “strip,” where you can cruise repeatedly back and forth at 10 mph, do you expect women to jump the car with someone they never met? Driving a car and picking up chicks only happens in “American Graffiti.”

Summary: In 4.5 years, I have “magnetized” a total of 2 chicks. One at a gas station, the other was cutting my hair. I have been approached by maybe 3 others, but they just want to know what kind of car it is. The hair cutting chick was skeezy. The other one was in a power suit and a bit intimidating, but I should have offered her a ride, looking back on it. Maybe she would have returned the favor…

You would have WAY better odds hanging out by the produce section. And you wouldn’t look half as creepy.

Of course not. Those fucking Jeeps never put out anyway!

Now, an old Pinto? Those auto sluts will put out in a heart beat.

People still street race. They gather in large groups and hang out until it’s time to go out to the spot. If there’s a lot of fast cars around, there’s going to be a lot of girls around. When I was 19 and had my first Mustang GT, several girls that I didn’t know wanted to go for rides.

Anyone else think like me? My thought was ‘a jeep to attract girls? Don’t guys usually get jeeps to attract guys’

When you’re 4 years old, a Big Wheel will attract girls.

making your jeep look like a JP jeep = never going to impress girls

It’s as simple as that. If you want to make your jeep look like that, forget about girls. Get something you love and enjoy it, but don’t kid yourself that it will get you chicks.

Although doing exactly what you want to do, and being exactly who you are inside might attract the right girl.
