Description
2-Piece Duck Rated Badge 2.36" Auto Fender Emblem Adhesive Sticker 4x4 SUV Truck. 10 pairs available. This is a "Duck Rated 4x4" metal automotive badge or emblem. It is specifically designed for Jeep Wranglers and Cherokees but has a universal fit. The badge is made from a die-struck zinc emblem with a 3D effect. It typically uses strong 3M VHB tape for attachment to any flat, clean surface. The object shown in the image is a "Duck Rated 4x4" car emblem or badge. These are popular novelty accessories, particularly among Jeep owners participating in the "Duck Duck Jeep" tradition, to personalize their vehicles. Product Information. Material: The badges are commonly made from high-quality materials such as metal (zinc alloy or aluminum) or UV-resistant polymer. Design: The emblem features a yellow rubber duck graphic in the center, with a "DUCK RATED" text above it and "4X4" below. Installation: They are designed with auto- motive-grade adhesive backing (like 3M) for easy, peel-and-stick installation on flat surfaces like a car's fender, tailgate, or dash- board. The "Duck Duck Jeep" tradition is a widespread, playful custom among Jeep owners where they leave a rubber duck on another Jeep as a random act of kindness to spread joy and build a sense of community. Origin of the Tradition. The modern move- ment gained global popularity starting in the summer of 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic. It began when a Canadian woman, Allison Parliament, had an unplea- sant encounter with another person at a gas station. To cheer herself up and another stranger, she placed a rubber duck with a note that said "Nice Jeep" on a nearby Jeep Wrangler. The recipient posted a photo on social media with the hashtag #DuckDuck- Jeep, and the trend quickly went viral. How to Participate. The "rules" of the tradition are informal and meant to be fun and respectful: Carry ducks: Keep a supply of rubber ducks in your vehicle. Spot a Jeep: Look for another Jeep you admire in a parking lot or on the street. Place the duck: Leave the duck in a visible but non-invasive spot, such as the side mirror, door handle, hood, or front bumper, where the owner will see it immed- iately. Avoid blocking the driver's view or putting it inside the vehicle. Add a note: Many people attach a small, friendly note with messages like "You've been ducked!" or "Nice Jeep!" and the hashtag #DuckDuck- Jeep. Share online: The recipient often shares a photo of their new duck on social media to participate in the community. Community and Symbolism. Jeep owners often collect the ducks they receive and display them on their dashboards, some- times creating a "duck pond." Each duck is considered a "badge of honor" or a souvenir from an encounter, symbolizing a connection with a fellow enthusiast. The tradition is an extension of the existing "Jeep Wave" culture, promoting camaraderie, respect, and positivity among owners of all Jeep models, though it is most strongly associated with the Wrangler.
