This pic has sure been getting around, fourth jeep board I've seen it on.
Hope he got it out without the help of a Hummer owner!  |

NOW we know the origin of the phrase "Mall Crawler".

Pretty obvious photochop.

Certainly looks fake to me too.
Think about how soft and wet the ground has to be to sink to your frame.

Yeah, someone photoshopped in all that rolled up mud around the tires, mud on the tires, caked under the wheel wells, ect.
And you guys are a little slow if you have need seen the 'Dry Wells' put into those little catchment areas in parking lots for rain control...
I've seen them where you couldn't walk across them after hard rain... WAY TOO SOFT!
If that's snow on the curb, and it looks to be, then that part of the lot is where they pushed up tons of snow, and that ALWAYS makes the ground as soft as pudding under it!
Anyone that had ever had to shovel snow would know that...
I saw a empty walmart trailer stuck in one of there own parking lot 'Buffer' strips when he dragged the trailer off into it...
500 Horse power with all 8 drive wheels on the pavement couldn't dislodge the trailer which had gone up to the brake chambers without wheels being spun!
Runoff catchment 'Dry Wells' under those grassy patches much of the time now, I can see it happening REALLY EASILY!
You guys need to get out a little more,
You think EVERYTHING is a conspiracy!
(look over you shoulder--- The clock is a secret recording device and the 'Time People' are watching you!)

Photochop? Then it has to be one of the best....not only did they get the shadow angles correct, they even got the reflection in the back window of the store front as well as the parking light light in the rear view mirror of the veh that the photo was taken from.....
Not to mention the fact that this is just not one of those things that is of such substantial significance that it would warrant someone taking the time to do such a task....so are so many more worthy targets out there......like putting Obama's head on the cover of Madd magazine....or the head of Gloria Allred on the body of a cow.....oh, wait, she is a cow....never mind...

It’s a photo chop.  Quote:

The Jeep was level left to right when the picture was taken with that reflection. If the Jeep was level, the picture of the Jeep was taken at a lot higher angle than the picture of the parking lot.
The angles are all wrong for the part of the building you can see to show up in the back window and as close as the Jeep is to the building, any reflection would more than fill the back window.
That is not a reflection of a light on the Jeep in the mirror, that is a light in the parking lot behind that vehicle.
