I'm sure another tribe is out there eye rolling at this very moment thinking they wouldn't mind having their name plastered on the side of a car.

Jeep Seminole? Jeep Choctaw?

Yeah right, get a clue.
Being Jewish, it’s my dream to drive around in a Jeep Jew. 🙄

Are you saying one of the Five Tribes (other than the Cherokee) wouldn't?

The only Tribe out here that ran their mouth over such symbolism was the Seminole over the FSU symbols. The Florida Seminole Tribe told them to STFU and GTFO. There is a mutual respect there and the Tribal name on a vehicle isn't disrespectful at all. All Jeep has to do is a little positive PR, history of the Tribe, important contributions they made, their history of persecution, etc. A little would go a long way with one of the other Tribes.

Especially if they got in on a licensing deal.

This is petty for the Cherokee IMO. Childish even.

So you don't want your name taken off the Jeep Grand Cherokee?

There has got to be a politically incorrect joke in there somewhere... I just can't see it though...

Gets stingy gas mileage? That's all I got

What's the Army going to do? Every one of their helicopters has a tribal name.
