We've Got One!

I'll never forget turning up to a cachemeet with a white jeep to drop off and seeing the reaction of some folk.

I'm not kidding you all when I say that some cachers were nearing a state of orgasm!

 

Each to their own I suppose,but it worth getting so worked up about a marketing ploy?

And you had fun deciding who to give it to!!

It's my jeep!

When Firth of Forth replied with "And you had fun deciding who to give it to!!" I wasn't sure if they were talking about the white jeep or something else.....

 

I thought that I did a very good impression of Dr Evil though......!

It makes me laugh that people complain you are exporting these from the states, you are being selfish by taking them away, but they aren't being selfish expecting them to stay in the USA... right?

 

Sadly, although I commend your effort its highly unlikely I'll ever see one in the wild. In my experience jeeps tend to become somewhat elitist, with people stockpiling them and holding onto them for months on end until they come across a cache which they deem worthy of one, or place a new cache of their own and decide to tempt people along.

 

I'm sure a few will end up on the event circuit and I'll see one there, it just seems such a shame people can't treat them like normal travel bugs and drop them off a few days after finding them so more people have a chance to go out and grab one.

ah well, give it a year or so and may see one in a cache somewhere when they are safe to remove from the US without causing offence and have done the event circuits, i can wait. until then lots more tupperware to be found

Ours will be released very soon (in fact as soon as we have got over our jetlag enough to concentrate on caching).

 

We've no intention of hanging onto them as we've got the icon now and the purpose of bringing them back to the UK was for others to enjoy the hunt for them and get the icon too

 

If anyone wants to bookmark the ones we have, the links are:

Thanks to everyone who's managed to drive a Green Jeep across The Pond, so that other cachers can have some fun with them. We'll be looking out for them...

Meanwhile, I'll make do with a yellow one (if I can find one )

I had a green jeep, But.... it went to Japan, and I think it may be in Hawaii right now, but then it will probably be going back to Japan, and then.... who knows, it might just show up in say ... Lancashire. I'm not positive on it's exact schedule but I'm pretty sure some of you might get to log it.
