My parents own a TJ and they have always wanted to go to that thing. I said "lets go, but I'm bringing my truck!" That would be funny to crash the jeep party! Oh, well!

Toyota would do it if they could convince you to pay $1000 a day. It seems they are all about money and not customer service.

Yeah, I know, that was kind of the point!

We went to Jeep 101 back when they were looking to buy a vehicle. It was a cool taste of offroading abilities.

I've never been, but thats why I Keep the Good Ole Jeep around too.

Part of the reason that Toyota doesn't do it is that there are probably a lot more Jeeps out there, And a bigger % are acctually used off road.

Also it doesn't hurt that part of the Jeep selling point is that they are ment for Off road travel (not that it's not part of toyotas, but I think Jeep signifies this point more)

Problem is what would the jamboree be?? How to fit your SUV into a tight parking spot?? Lets face it, Toyota has lost it when it comes to off road use. They have rolled over dead to the "BIG 3" and are playing their game while Jeep still appeals to the 4x4 side of things.. I think they always will IMHO. It would be a sad day when Jeep starts putting in IFS and plastic bupmers and cladding on (Yea, I am forgetting that fugly Renagade they built on purpose) Toyota does not care about off roders because that is not their sales market. Their attitude has proven it before and will continue to do so as long an soccer moms buy Toyotas and H2's to pick their kids up from day care! Say what you want about Jeeps.. But they rule as far as additude goes, They like their 4x4 roots and know that the whole Wrangler line depends on it. Oh, BTW.. I went to a Jeep Jamboree up here a couple weeks ago, and im my 4Runner.. They waived me to the area to enter my truck (I had to go back to the parking lot) All I was doing was picking up some used soft doors for my Heep..
