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.
