+The Inkwell Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 has anyone come across Yellow or White Jeep TBs lately? We still find green and red on a semi-regular basis, but we haven't seen yellow or white in years. Quote Link to comment
+BlueDeuce Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 (edited) I'm checking your area. Of course I have to first identify if they should be marked as missing. There appears to be a yjtb in The Welland Arms. It was dropped in Nov and there's no definite log it was taken or reported missing. Well that's it for caches within 45 miles of Sanborn. I've submitted to have the missing white and yellow jeeps removed. Edited January 26, 2009 by BlueDeuce Quote Link to comment
+Rich the Bushwhacker Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 I haven't seen one in years, but it is a big world. My thread on Jeep TB attrition has been following the reducing number of moving Jeep travel bugs. My latest numbers are from August, based on those numbers: 9%, or 355 of the 5000 Yellow Jeeps are still moving. (defined as moved in the last 90 days) 14% or 620 of the 5000 White Jeeps are still moving. Of course, moving could mean someone just dropping and picking up the Jeep from a cache periodically and keeping the bug. Quote Link to comment
+Eartha Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Blue Deuce, now could you please scan the area for the red and green jeeps? JUST KIDDING!!! I'll be able to mark those you sent me missing later on, after work. Quote Link to comment

You know, this would be a heck of a lot easier if gc.com could run a query for jeeps in active caches that haven't been logged in over a year. Quote Link to comment
+succotash Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Yes!!! We found this yellow jeep TB in Georgia in early January. We placed it in a cache in South Carolina on January 18th. It's still there! Quote Link to comment
+The Inkwell Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 I only ask because it seems like ages since we've found some of the older ones. I imagine that there still are a few in circulation, but they're pretty much extinct at this point. Quote Link to comment
+succotash Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Yes!!! We found this yellow jeep TB in Georgia in early January. We placed it in a cache in South Carolina on January 18th. It's still there! We found out from the log entry of the cachers who picked this one up after us that the tag is original, but the jeep is a replacement. Quote Link to comment
+GeoMallards Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 has anyone come across Yellow or White Jeep TBs lately? We still find green and red on a semi-regular basis, but we haven't seen yellow or white in years. I dropped off White Jeep "Faith" on Glens911's green jeep's windshield where I discovered his TB (on his jeep). I gave it to Glens911 a token of my appreciation for having his jeep parked there. I emailed him to claim/grab his "Faith" White Jeep but haven't heard his reply or claimed his White Jeep. - Cindy of GeoMallards Quote Link to comment

Did you post a note on the cache he was looking for that day? Posting a note on that cache page is more likely to be seen by him, than posting a note on the TB page would. Quote Link to comment
+hhhmmmmm Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Someone has a yellow jeep TB for sale on Ebay, this isn't legal is it? Item #180337130982 This person grabbed this in 2007 and now he has it for sale with other coins Quote Link to comment
+BlueDeuce Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I say since they are selling their coins let the buyer take it over and hopefully they will release it. Quote Link to comment
