Top Gifts for Jeep Lovers in 2022
For their owners, Jeeps are more than just vehicles. They represent a way of life. If you are shopping for gifts for the Jeep lover(s) in your life, picking up some parts and accessories may be the perfect way to go. XT has all your Jeep-lover gift-giving needs covered this year.
What Does Every Jeep Lover Need?
A big part of the fun of owning a Jeep is getting to customize it. There are a lot of aftermarket products for Jeeps, meaning that everyone can find something they love. A lot of people do off-road trail builds with their Jeeps while others set them up for camping, carrying surfing supplies or lugging around mountain bikes. Some people love to keep them close to stock with a few tasteful upgrades and others try to elicit a retro feel.
In short, every Jeep lover needs parts and accessories that can make his or her vision come to life. Many of the larger parts, such as lift kits and off-road wheels, can cost hundreds or thousands of dollars and need to be carefully selected based on their specifications and features. Thus, it is usually a good idea to stray away from these unless you know exactly what the individual wants.
However, there are still plenty of great options for Jeep owners. The following are a few suggestions at different price points:
- Roof Rack: A roof rack can help you carry more when you go off-road. For people who love camping, surfing or just heading out for road trips, this is a great gift. There are options at a lot of different price points ranging from a few hundred dollars, such as this Smittybilt, to more than a thousand for a premium model.
- Bick Rack: being able to carry some bikes with your Jeep can open up a lot of fun possibilities for adventure. XT has a lot of great options to suit every budget. For example, you may like this Curt hitch-mounted rack.
- Custom Headlights: The front fascia of a Jeep is so iconic that the brand has made it into its logo. Nonetheless, many Jeep owners like to mix things up with more aggressive headlight designs or alternative colors. Check out our selection of headlights to find the perfect option.
- Trail Jack: Everyone has gotten a flat tire at some point. If it happens on the trail, a basic scissor jack isn’t going to cut it. For this situation, a trail jack is a good option. This Hi-Lift X-Treme Jack is an excellent choice.
Gifts Under $100
If your budget caps out at $100, you will probably need to pass on the really big items. However, there are lots of options at this price point to treat the Jeep lover in your life.
- Jerry Can/Fuel Container: If you run out of gas on the trail, you are out of luck. So, having some extra fuel cans can be a good idea, especially for people taking longer, overnight trips. For example, this RotopaX Gasoline Pack is a compact and convenient way to carry some extra fuel.
- Tire Mount Upgrade: The Jeep spare tire mount is a great area for improvement. By upgrading the mount, you can add all sorts of useful features. For example, this Rock Slide Engineering EZ Rack Kit has space for an ax, shovel, jack and more.
- Recovery Winch Tree Hugger: Recovery winches are great tools on the trail, but some Jeep owners are hampered by a lack of situation-appropriate accessories. This Bubba Rope Tree Hugger can help the Jeep lover in your life to get a strong, safe grip on a tree for a recovery.
- Portable Jump Starter: A dead battery while off-roading (or even on-roading) can be a nightmare. Having a jump starter kit at the ready is a great idea for those that like to use their vehicle power when camping. This Rough Country Portable Jump Starter even features a built-in air compressor that can be helpful at your campsite.
Gifts Under $50
For gifts under $50, it is a good idea to check out some more lifestyle-oriented products. These can be a great way for the Jeep lover in your life to show off his or her fandom while also enjoying some practical benefits:
- Cleaner and Protectant: Nothing says pride quite like a well-maintained vehicle. Get your friend or family member some cleaning products such as the Bestop Cleaner and Protectant Combo Pack.
- Hoodie: Help your loved one show off his or her fandom with a hoodie. You can find plenty of other great apparel too such as t-shirts and hats.
- Jeep Towel: Keeping the inside of your Jeep clean can be a little challenging, especially for fans of the great outdoors. A Jeep Logo Towel could be a great gift. It can be used for getting cleaned up or protecting the seats.
Gifts Under $25
The following are three gift ideas for under $25! Whether you are looking for something small or want to round out your gifts with a few extras, these are perfect:
- Cargo Straps: There are lots of options for securing cargo tightly on a Jeep. For example, these Smittybilt Ratchet Tie Down Straps are easy to use and perfect for overlanding or camping.
- Recovery Shovel: A recovery shovel can help you get your Jeep unstuck in a difficult situation. Plus, it can be helpful for camping and other needs. Check out the Smittybilt recovery Utility Tool as a possible gift.
- Jeep Flag: A lot of Jeep owners like to fly flags from their vehicles. Forever Wave makes some great, durable flags such as this Jeep Grill Flag.
