New Trend Starts in The Valley
Have you wondered why so many Jeeps have rubber ducks sitting on their dashboard? I’m sure most of you have noticed the rubber ducks on the Jeep dashboards by now. But, I had no idea why so many Jeeps have ducks sitting on their dashboard. Are they Free Masons, members of a secret club, or possibly members of a cult? Well, the practice is called “ducking.” Fellow Jeep owners acknowledge each other for multiple reasons, including just having a nice Jeep to just an act of kindness, by putting a duck on another person’s Jeep. There’s nothing sinister about it; it’s actually a neat practice or trend.
Someone in The Valley has started a similar trend. It appears the originator/s of this trend seeks out older model Honda Accords and Toyota Camrys, and they put mini Energizer bunnies on these cars. No one knows who started the trend, but it’s catching on. I’ve personally noticed 5-6 Accords and Camrys with small Energizer bunnies sitting on their dashboards.
It’s the talk on social media among Valleyans right now. People are trying to figure out who started the trend, but no one knows. The practice is being called “bunnying” or “getting bunnied.” One can assume the Energizer bunny symbolizes that these two car models are durable, and they just keep going and going like the Energizer bunny.
One Valleyan said, “I think this is hilarious. My Accord is 12 years old, and she’s still running strong. I’m going to drive her to the wheels fall off. I’ve been “bunnied” 3 times now, and I’m proud to display those bunnies on my dash. Hopefully, my car will still keep going strong for years to come, and I can fill my dash up with bunnies.”
A Valley Jeep owner said, “I’ve been ducking for years now, and it’s fun. But, I really enjoy bunnying Accord and Camry owners. I’ve bought a ton of mini bunnies, and I’m putting them out everywhere. It’s a riot to see these old cars driving around with bunnies on their dashes.”
This a fun trend, and the intrigue about the originator/s is very funny. The trend hasn’t really caught on outside The Valley yet, but I’m sure it will soon. No one noticed those older Accord and Camry’s until now. Take a backseat Jeep owners! It’s time for these old Accords and Camrys to shine!
