As you may know, putting little rubber ducks on Jeeps is a real thing. It all started back during the pandemic when Allison Parlaiment tried to make a stranger smile, bu putting a little duck on his Jeep.

Another thing that some Jeepers do is get "badges" for their fenders. Jeeps come with one that says "Trail Rated" a marketing term referring to the offroad capability of even the stock vehicles. I have two on my Gladiator: the stock "Trail Rated" badge, and one for one of my Jeep Clubs, "Get Over It" (meaning get over the trail obstacle, rather than go around it).

Sadly, Allison passed away in June. In tribute, Jeep posted a pictuture of a Super Hero duck with red hair, a halo and wings. A company has released a metal fender badge with the Allison duck with the inscription "An Act of Kindness" and "Allison Rated." Mine was delivered today. It won't go on the truck, but will go on a Challenge Coin display with tho other "collectible" badge - my first Jeep function which helped raise money for St. Jude's Hospital.

About half of my ducks.

Rest in Peace, sweet lady.

A nice story and tribute, I like the design on the Allison Rated also.
 
I knew she passed but love the badge they made. I have a lot of ducks in my jeep and I have a bag of ducks I bought too for other jeeps.
