Remembering – Memorial Day

A Jeep Wave to remember those who died while serving to protect the USA.  We hope this day is less about the bbq’s, the beach, and the day off of work and more about remembering and reflecting about how and why we are able to enjoy what we have in this country.  In large part, due to those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

We posted last week about a new initiative going on at jeepwaves.com.  We are donating 10% of all purchases made to the Wounded Warriors Fund.  We believe this is a great cause and something all of us can get behind.  While a day like Memorial Day is well needed, supporting wounded vets is something we can do everyday, not just the last day in May.  Don’t make this a reason to buy a decal or a shirt today, because that’s not what today is about.  But, hopefully this philanthropy is something we can take pride in when making future purchases.

One last thing.  A tribute from last year from a super hero to the real super heroes.

Wounded Warrior Fund

With the recent success of Jeep Wave Day, we wanted to help spread the word about another great project, the Wounded Warrior Fund. As of May 2012, all purchases made through our eBay auction pages, will include a donation made by jeepwaves.com to the Wounded Warrior Fund (10% of the total purchase amount).

We think this is a great project and something that everyone can get behind, regardless of your politics or other beliefs.  Hopefully, you all agree, because we’re doing it anyway.  So, head on over to our eBay pages and get yourself a decal or shirt to support the Jeep Wave and support our troops in the process. Thanks!

Jeep Wave Day

Hey all.  We’re trying to get a day going where we can celebrate our Jeeps and promote the Jeep Wave.  With more and more Jeep drivers out there every day, we need to make sure everyone knows about the wave.  We decided last spring that the “day to wave” would be May 7th, which is in just over 2 weeks from today!

So, we wanna get the word out and we need some help.  Let’s post it up on Facebook, share it with your Jeep clubs, and throw that #JeepWave hash tag out on Twitter.  Don’t forget to holler at your local Jeep Dealer and make sure they know what’s up too!

Feel free to link back to the blog here if you want to share around the web with your Jeep friends!  linkback: http://bit.ly/jeepwaveday

Moab 2012

Who plans to go out to Moab this week?  Anyone already there?  Based on the Facebook pics, it looks like people are having a ton of fun and the rigs that we’ve seen are super impressive.  With snow hitting this morning, it should make things interesting.

We’ve got some Jeep Wave fans in attendance rocking stickers and even a few t shirts.  The JW.com team is thinking we may drive out late Thursday for a Friday morning tour around Moab.  Not sure yet, will depend on work and what not.  We’ll be sure to update if we make it.

If anyone needs a sticker or shirt, there’s a special EJS sale going on over on eBay.  Check it out!  http://bit.ly/b3tkwA

Jeep: The Easiest Way Down

It’s winter time in the Colorado Rockies and that means our  Jeeps turn into vehicles of survival rather than just fun.  Yeah, the hard top has to go back on the wrangler, but it’s a battle against the elements.  Blizzards, icy roads, below freezing temps, yeah, whatever.   Never had a problem in the Jeep when other cars are sitting on the side of the road, spun out, broken down, unable to compete.

It also means that ski season is in full effect up here.  Being avid skiers, we snapped this shot at our favorite small resort up here – Araphaoe Basin.  You can officially put them on your “nice list” for X-mas this year since they have s ski run named “Wrangler.”  Not only does it pay tribute to the greatest vehicle on earth, but it appropriate lists it as a green run, or, “The Easiest Way Down.”

“The Easiest Way Down,” couldn’t have said it better ourselves!  Props to A-Basin for the naming and safe driving to all our fans out there this Holiday Season.  If you need some good gift giving ideas, head on over to our Products Page and be on the look out for some discounts in the coming week!
