All Things Jeep Blog & Musings

You want topless photos? We got 'em. And LOTS of them. I'm referring to our topless Jeep photos that were sent to us by all our customers celebrating our 2nd Annual Go Topless Day on May 9th, 2009.

As expected, we did actually get quite a few photos showing topless people inside topless Jeeps. However, much to the guys' dismay over here, most of the topless humans were dudes. Shameless dudes I might add! The few females sending topless photos were appropriately covered by strategically placed roll bars, dashboards and handmade posters. Thank you ladies for making sure all photos sent our way were PG. That allowed us to post them all.

Also as expected, kids and dogs played a large role in the photos we received. What can we say, we're a pushover for a cute kid in a Jeep. Does it have anything to do with the fact that maybe they'll become a long-term customer of ours if we post their photos? We can only hope!

And finally, we are thrilled with the amount of Jeep clubs participating in Go Topless Day. View the full All Things Jeep Photo Album page to see the club photo

Thank you ALL!

So, drumroll please....

Out of the 100s of photos send our way, we picked out our favorites and here they are.

HERE ARE THE winners of our Go Topless Day Photo Contest.

Each of them get a $50 Gift Certificate to www.allthingsjeep.com and this worldwide recognition! What could be sweeter.

For all the photos submitted, check out our All Things Jeep Photo Album here.

Here's another great special for our blog readers. In honor of the Patriotic Summer Holidays we have introduced a red, white and Jeep shirt. Here's the new Jeep Flag Shirt

Like the American Flag, the Jeep is a cultural icon that represents freedom, independence and an unwavering spirit. Celebrate them both with our Limited Edition Summer 2009 Jeep Flag Shirt.

Cool Blog Readers get it for 1/2 price this week. Enter discount code "  cool-blog-reader " during checkout and this $18.99 tee becomes yours for just $9.50. Thank you!

By now all my readers know about Go Topless Day, but here's a chance to see what our flagship event, in Lancaster, MA was all about. It was about Jeeps! It was about Jeep Clubs! It was about MUD! It was about good times shared with fellow Jeepers. Thanks everyone! Here's a video of our local Go Topless Day event.

Here are members of the 4XFools Off-Road Club, along with a couple of extra friends, celebrating the first ever "Top Less Night" down at the Sidney Dairy Barn. Located in Sidney, IL. This was another one of the 100+ Jeep Clubs celebrating Go Topless Day with AllThingsJeep.com on May 9th 2009.

Celebrating summer at the ice cream stand in your topless Jeep is MY idea of fun! (In fact, we hit up our favorite Cherry Hill Ice Cream in Lunenburg, MA just last night!)

Another Go Topless Day Jeep Event. This one in Central Florida.

"What an awesome event!  The Pirates of Moor Jeep & 4x4 Club of Central Florida, ( http://www.piratesofmoor.org/ ) organized a "Coastal Cruise" from Daytona Beach to the beaches of St Augustine Florida and back. We couldn't have asked for better weather, it was clear skies, with a light tropical breeze, low humidity, and 89 degrees.
Thirty six (36) Rigs participated, representing five clubs as well as unaffiliated persons.

• Pirates Of Moor: 7
• Mid Florida J/C:13
• Just Jeeps of Jacksonville: 4
• Extreme Jeeps: 1
• Legendary Jeeps: 1
• Unaffiliated: 10

Thanks to the Volusia County Sheriff's Office for the  "motorcade" escort, and the cities of Daytona Beach, Holly Hill and Ormond Beach, Florida for stopping traffic at all the intersections and allowing our "convoy" to travel without interruption. (a first in THIS area!)  At our turnaround point we had a picnic lunch and some played on the beach and in the surf. We're already planning for 2010, when we plan on doubling  our attendance and seeing you here as well.

Pirates Of Moor Jeep & 4x4 Club of Central Florida"

Thanks Perry. Glad you had a great day. More photos here:

Every year around this time, I do a little search engine research. I go to www.google.com and type in "Go Topless Day" to see how many people are writing about our event (happening today, May 9th, 2009) And I'm pleased to see that a lot are. So thank you. But this morning when I did this I clicked on PHOTOS to see what photos popped up in Google search for that phrase.

And I am surprisingly pleased that among all those naked boobies, are assorted references to our JEEP-focused Go Topless Day. In fact, given the history of the other "go topless" phrase, and the focus of it, I am thrilled to even make the Google cut! So while I know we'll never REALLY compete with boobs, we are in amongst them and as you all know...that feels good.  Cheers to Topless Day. Whether your top was on or off today, we hope you had a good time!

We recycle everything we can, but we started rethinking recycling our empties after seeing what we COULD be doing with them:

 Amazing Jeep Art

I can't say enough good things about the artists I find on etsy. I could spend hours looking at all the great pieces of art there. I've purchased many items, including several one of kind Jeep art pieces. I am also thinking about picking up this cute Beaded Beach Jeep

But, enough playing. I'm closing my etsy.com window and going back to work. ;)

Today we added a line of "Little Wheelers" personalized Jeep prints to our product line. These wee-sized Jeeps are colorful prints that can be personalized with your little Jeep guy's name or any other phrase (up to 40 characters). There's 7 of them, and they each represent a Jeep from our past (or present).

Really, are there any cuter pictures you could imagine putting up on your new Jeep baby's walls? They are $25 each, including the personalization.  Updated apparel coming soon!
