For things that are "hmmm".
Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

What's the deal with rubber ducks and jeeps anyway?
Jeep people are a bit weird. My friend borrowed one once and gave me a lift. It had about 20 glued to the dash. She said he just gets them handed to him by other Jeep people. I asked "why?" Of course. The answer was "dunno but he has two kids with two women in another country that he never sees". I know that's not a satisfying answer but then again we're talking about people that purposely buy a vehicle that is horribly inefficient and that will flip taking a 30 degree turn. With $3000 worth of accessories. So, yeah. Jeep people are weird.
Depends what era of Jeep we are talking about, roughly after 01 they get very weird in a why are you doing this sorta way. 01 and older you basically have folks who just like them for mechanical and ease of repair reasons.
It's a lifestyle thing and it mostly harmless. Best not to question it.
Transparency: I have owned and still do own a Jeep. I like my 2015 Patriot.
Jeep drivers drive a car made to handle mountainous terrain, but are scared of a small lip due to repaving.
Jeep drivers are insane humans.
