Jeeple
Noun, refers to Jeep People.
A name given to a group of "Jeep Life" people, whom purchase a Jeep to compensate for a lack of social ability, personality, or general lack of interesting abilities. They tend to gather at parking lots to exploit the money spent on tasteless, useless aftermarket add-ons while highlighting the latest tire shine and waxing standards. Typically, the 4 wheel drive lever of their Jeep has been placed in 4WD once, during a test-drive.

Wow, look at all those Jeeple at the back of the Mall, stacked- surprised they got that much traction with the tire gel!

jeepney
The Filipino jeepney is a contraption of materials classified as junk by other countries.
A typical jeepney, for example, contains these mixed components:
- engine from Isuzu,
- transmission from Mitsubishi,
- brakes from Toyota
- steering wheel from Hyundai,
- differentials from Nissan
Materials for building a jeepney are sourced from so-called "surplus" shops. These shops import second-hand or junk vehicles mostly from Japan and Korea, and sell the dismembered parts for jeepney assemblies.
Filipino jeepneys are not built on rules:
- They do not follow automotive safety standards.
- There are no standards in build quality.
- There are no design plans.
- They are built based on builder's experience.
- a "Jeepney engineer", as opposed to a true automotive engineer, can be anyone. Can be a backyard mechanic, a welder, a tinsmith, or a combination of them.
Public safey is never an issue for both jeepney and driver. There are no safety tests, no safety certificates, no driver training. Newly-built jeepneys are considered as "road-worthy", jeepneys get legal license plates even if built by backyard mechanics, and can be used as public transport.
"The unique thing about jeepneys is that no jeepney is exactly the same as another." As mentioned previously, that's because there are no design rules to build a jeepney. Only 1 simple rule: If it fits, its good enough to use.
