Naww, all that really says is that you don't go to the mall very often. Also your Jeep is probably modified, and not shiny and pristine.

99% of Wranglers that get ducked have the stock bumpers.

99% of all wranglers have plastic bumpers so that makes sense.

I have been ducked many times. I was even ducked several times in one day. Generally I re duck the ducks that I have received. My Jeep has been sitting in the drive way on Jack stands since May 28th, about a week ago, it got ducked in my driveway. Normally, I keep one duck in the Jeep, but since it has not been on the road since May 28th, Have not had the opportunity to thin out the ones that are on the dash.

I’ve been ducked a few times and I’m not duck friendly. It has slowed down since I put this hand-made scorpion made of para cord on my dash. Here in the desert people know the capabilities of the scorpion and usually refrain from ducking my Jeep. Occasionally one tries and it’s a fun time for scorpie.

My wife is proudly displaying all the ducks we get on the dash and we have been putting them in the center dash cubby. Well the duck collection has now exceeded the cubby hole. Started lining them along the window but that is where the defroster is. How will they impact the defroster this winter?

I like roast duck but I think I would avoid blocking the vents.

Actually, the venting system is poor. I ordered some plugs to help distribute the air towards the sides as most of the air comes up in the center. You will probably witness this when you have to defrost your windshield. Plugs available on Amazon.

Thank you for the link but this will be our second winter with the Jeep and so far zero problems with defrost.

Lucky for you. Could be a function of JL year. There has been a fair amount of discussion on this on the forum. That's how I learned to deal with the problem.

I’ve been ducked way too many to count. And I don’t even do ducks.

Another “ducking” nightmare and all the more reason to start dolling.
