i've been a Jeep YJ owner since I was a senior in high school in 1998. i no longer DD my YJ but i still have it and drive it some, and i love it. that said, i feel absolutely zero connection or sense of community with 95% of newer Jeep drivers (this is not universal, there are definitely a select few who are basically just the current version of the way Jeep guys always were).
TJ driver here, and I agree.

I have driven a jeep most of my life. My kids love then damn duck thing.
I honestly don't care for it. It makes my day if my kids are with me and they get the duck off the door handle. I honestly don't get ducked much thank goodness.
i had a 2013 that had power windows and locks and nothing else fancy. it got totaled a little over a year ago. I honestly love having the basics and not much electronic stuff.
My 2018 has everything. I admit the 18 and newer jeeps are nothing but a chicks car.

Yeah I think most of the hate is for the JK/JL. The older jeeps like the CJ, YJ, TJ aren’t really chick vehicles.
I have a TJ too.
It’s not a daily driver - 12MPG sucks.
It’s not in the shop very much - only ~1 month last year (and that’s not including all the shite I fixed myself like fuel pump, intake manifold, spark plugs, tie rods, etc
) The duck thing is stupid - I feel like it’s more of a 4door/JK thing.
Death Wobble is a legit concern - but that’s not a Jeep thing, that’s a solid front axle thing. It happens on F250s, F350s, RAMs, etc.
it’s definitely slow. I at least have the AMC 4.0 and it’s one of the toughest engines you can get, but it takes a while to get to 75mph. I don’t know how the 2.5 4 cylinder people can drive on the interstate.
