I wouldn't lose sleep over it. In fact, text him and get his mailing address........take a pic of your Tremor........mail the pic with Merry Ranger Christmas on it to him! I know......I know......a little passive/aggressive!
After his unbelievable comment, I threw his info away, deleted the text message, and deleted his phone number! I would not wheel with him now no matter what!!!

It's a shame but look at it this way; he did you a favor showing his true colors via text. Imagine having to spend an entire day in the middle of nowhere with somebody like this? Hopefully the next group you run into is a fun one.

Unfortunately Phil it's just getting worse in todays society. Seems like politeness is a thing of the past and I'm almost taken back when some says "thank you" to me now for holding the door. Still I won't let that stop me from being polite but I'll make a smug remark back like "you're welcome". lol

I agree Adam! I am sure he is in the minority of immature Jeep drivers. There are a lot of great people driving Jeeps that are wonderful people. I just bumped into a spoiled little child pretending to be an adult!!!

For some reason, rudeness and disrespect run rampant.

They're everywhere. My buddy got his new Bronco this summer and and has had several "Jeep Guys" take smack about it to him (wrong guy to do this to. lol) and give him the thumbs down when driving by.

You're a good person Dave, like myself and all the others here didn't already know that!!! Being kind and thoughtful sets a good example and I still do that as well.

Sad but true Bob! But you don't have to look to far at the ones breading them because the apple usually doesn't fall far from the tree. :lipssealed:

Clearly they are jealous for not having a reliable 4X4!!

I think it's at least partially due to a generation that has little physical interaction with people.

For an example, a friend's dad passed away a while back.

His daughter said that she got dozens of comments on social media but not a single one of her "friends" showed up for her grandpa's funeral, and they were local. It really made her think about those types of relationships.

How childish can a person get? Might be pure jealously too! Sheesh!

Lots of truth in the lack of physical interaction and having to actually talk to someone.
