2007 Unlimited Spotted

This afternoon I finally spotted one in motion, 'metallic-pea-green' and
everything. Yes, the infamous '07 Unlimited is apparantly on the road
already. And I will not sleep well tonight.

It is even more hideous than the photos. Sadly, it doesn't look
anything like a classic Jeep Wrangler. I'm afraid that a wonderful era
in history has passed before my very eyes.

I pulled up at a stoplight on my way from work and this THING pulled up
next to me. At first, I thought it was a fugly H3 or something, but to
my surprise, it was an '07 Unlimited. The windows were down and the
salesman was chatting away with the mark, and I couldn't resist a barb
or two.

I said HI to the salesdroid, then asked him, "Honestly, wouldn't you
sleep better knowing you sold that gentleman a nice '05 or '06 Unlimited
like this one, instead of that monstrosity?" He laughed it off and
waved, as expected.

I then noticed that the customer was a mean-faced, middle-aged woman
with big hair and an attitude.

God help us all.

I could not agree more. I was in a left-turn lane in my YJ today
waiting for an opening to turn and I saw one drive by in the opposite
direction. I was so busy trying not to cry that I missed an opening to
turn and two people behind me honked. Jeez, the thing is awful.

Quite possibly the mean face and attitude was caused by an unsolicited
rude comment about a vehicle she was interested in purchasing to please
her, and not you.

YJ, TJ, and now whatever J this model is, all had/have their fair share
of people jumping up to claim they had seen the "end of an era". Funny
how many buyers these monstrosities ended up finding.

Different strokes and all that, eh?

It's a TK I think.

While I agree with everyone's comments, I heard all of the same comments in
1997 when the TJ was released.
