Are You A Jeep Girl?

(Psst!...already have the answers?..then tell us in your own words...click here now!)

Well, it would seem self-explanatory to say that a Jeep Girl would include any person of the female persuasion who has an interest in Jeeps and/or drives her own rig. Simple enough, right?

Who are these ladies?

Now, that's a tougher question to answer. It would appear to depend on a number of factors that would also be similar to their male counterparts.

Some factors would include:

• Where she lives relative to climate, terrain, remoteness, etc. Many women (and men) in various parts of the world where inhospitable conditions occur drive Jeeps out of necessity.

• how the vehicle is to be utilized, such as commuting, traveling, recreation, work, or any combination of these. With more types of "purpose style" vehicles to choose from, Jeep has entered this competitive market to deliver more options to women.

• experience and orientation to Jeeps from family, friends, adverizing, reading, etc. This would include the extent of a Jeep Girl's exposure to the Jeep brand.

• the fact that Jeep has several different models other than the Wrangler to appeal to a wider demograhic targeting many women such as with the Commander, Grand Cherokee, Patriot, and Compass.

• availability. A lot of us didn't choose our first vehicles. If we wanted to drive anywhere we had to use what was available which might have been the old family car...or even an old Jeep.

So, what attracts women to Jeeps?

Okay, maybe I'm just making this more difficult than it has to be. A Jeep Girl might be someone who thinks the darn things are just cute...like the Jeep Liberty.

There is even a Barbie Jeep battery powered toy for future little lady Jeepers to drive around in the yard. (And I'm sure a few future Jeep Boys have been seen in their sister's or neighbor's Barbie Jeep as well). So, it seems obvious that Jeep as well as other auto manufacturers start planting the advertising seeds early.

However, there are certainly quite a few diehard ladies of all adult (I hope!) ages driving jacked-up CJ's and Wranglers through the mud, the muck and the mire with enough debris on themselves and their Jeeps to obscure the color of their respective rigs. What motivates these Jeep Girls?

Sorry, but I really don't know the answer. All of this is merely speculation.

I'm sure that the Jeep division of Chrysler has done a lot of market research on this issue, but that lacks the human touch in my opinion. Also, they are more interested in marketing their new Jeeps.

I am more curious as to WHO you ladies are, and WHY you love Jeeps.

That is why I'm giving you the exclusive opportunity below to enlighten those of us who are not of the female gender...and...maybe inspire those who are.
