Jeeps got ducks, Maverick's have...

I'd be a bit concerned about approaching another man's truck to leave a plastic doodad on it. I'll leave you with this instructive story from Vonnegut. The moral: don't be Zog, your motives may well be misunderstood. ;)

“As for the story itself, it was entitled "The Dancing Fool." Like so many Trout stories, it was about a tragic failure to communicate. Here was the plot: A flying saucer creature named Zog arrived on Earth to explain how wars could be prevented and how cancer could be cured. He brought the information from Margo, a planet where the natives conversed by means of farts and tap dancing. Zog landed at night in Connecticut. He had no sooner touched down than he saw a house on fire. He rushed into the house, farting and tap dancing, warning the people about the terrible danger they were in. The head of the house brained Zog with a golfclub.”

Never heard of the Jeep duck thing before. Coincidentally I have "Eddy" - who has been with us on our travels for many years - riding along in the cubby 👍

Dude, just grow up. Just because you live a negative life doesn't mean you have to put your negativity on everyone else. This was just put out there to help build community and be a positive impact. If you don't like it, don't partake. That simple. No one is trying to force this on you.

I've often wondered if they have ducks because it rhymes with what they say when they either break down again or someone comes up with a new mod for their vehicles.

My opinion is just get the hotwheels / matchbox mavericks. Thats about all I consider using if I ever did this.

I know this is an older thread that's been beat to death but my vote/suggestion would be for:

Ford Maverick Jeeps got ducks, Maverick's have... 1736802350171-wa


Duck? DUCK?? Don't need no stinkin' duck!
