“Jeep is Life” for President of Jeep Nation Saif Qadomi

For this month’s Jeep? Middle East interview series, Saif Qadomi, President of Jeep Nation – one of the largest Jeep communities in the region – shares the story of his club and his love affair with the Jeep brand, which began during his early childhood.

“As long as I can remember, my childhood was filled with little Jeep toys and my love just kept growing from there until I got my first Jeep Wrangler YJ,” said Saif, “After that, my love for the Jeep brand continued to grow and I kept buying new Jeep vehicles, and through that making friends with other Jeep enthusiasts. Eventually that grew into a huge community of Jeep owners who share the same love and passion for the iconic brand.”

When asked which was his favorite Jeep vehicle, Saif responded by naming the Jeep Wrangler. “I love the Wrangler in all its forms, from old to new. I love its unique look and the way the 7 slots fit, which makes it very special to me. Driving a Wrangler just feels special and you wouldn’t understand that feeling unless you get behind the wheel of one. There are no words to describe how good it feels.”

Saif’s Jeep Nation club began as a small idea, which he started as a way to create a bridge of communication between Jeep owners residing throughout the United Arab Emirates.

“I?wanted to create a space where us Jeep owners could discuss our issues and passion without the interference of other car brand enthusiasts,” he said. “It all started with a WhatsApp group, and it felt amazing to be able to create a place where we could speak freely and passionately about our love for Jeep vehicles and share our future plans with them.”

Once Jeep Nation grew in its number of members on the WhatsApp Group, Saif then decided to organize gatherings in various areas of the UAE to meet and network with more Jeep owners and grow even larger as a community. Today, Jeep Nation holds numerous activities and events weekly where members come together to discover new areas of the country, from mountains, to deserts, to valleys.

“Jeep is a brand that builds SUVs to go everywhere and do anything, and with a Jeep vehicle, entering the desert in the UAE is as easy as stepping off the asphalt road, putting on your 4H gear and hitting the dunes for a quick stress relief drive and enjoying the UAE’s amazing dunes before heading back to the street and resuming your daily life routine,”

With over 700 club members to date, Jeep Nation also has various platforms across social media channels including Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok, where followers and members can communicate and sign up to the club’s events and activities.

The club is open to anyone residing in the UAE who owns a Jeep vehicle.

“We don’t accept any other brands on our trips, convoys, and adventures. Our members need to have their own Jeep vehicle. That is our one and main rule and only prerequisite,” he said.

Jeep vehicle owners who are interested in joining the club can do so by sending a message on Jeep Nation’s Instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/jeepnation.ae/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y%3D, following which they will be directed on how to become an official member.

“Our discovery begins where the road ends,” said Saif.
