Today — rush hour. Tomorrow — camping with the kids. Sunday — tailgating before the big game. Life is an adventure. Midsize crossover SUVs are designed to help you live it.
Car and Driver recently named their top 10 midsize crossover SUVs and two of FCAs finest have made the cut.
Taking its place at the number 10 position is Dodge Journey. According to Car and Driver, “Practicality is the name of the game when creating a tolerable family transporter, and the Journey has it in spades …”
With available seven-passenger seating, second-row in-floor storage, and up to 67.6 cubic feet of cargo space, there is more than enough room for everyone and everything. Meanwhile the standard stadium seating and Dual-Zone Temperature Control will keep everyone relaxed and comfortable for even the longest road trip.
Understanding that more space to fill means more people and cargo to keep safe, Dodge loaded the Journey up with over 50 standard and available safety and security features.
From the planned to the unexpected, the Journey was built for versatility and is equipped to take on a challenge.
Also ready to conquer a challenge, Jeep Grand Cherokee topped Car and Driver’s list.
“Whether you want to climb a mountain or just move up the ladder of success, the Grand Cherokee has you covered,” Car and Driver wrote. “With a choice of four 4×4 systems plus an optional Quadra-Lift air suspension, there’s no obstacle too difficult to tackle.”
Re-igniting your desire for the open road, Grand Cherokee makes you want to slip behind the wheel and confidently take control. The seemingly endless list of available safety and security features, like all-speed traction control, audible and visual crash mitigation alerts and blind spot monitoring are all on your side.
Own one and you may find yourself offering to run to the store and then “sneaking” the keys from your wife’s purse just so you can test the smart brake system that keep the brake rotors dry in wet driving conditions.
It’s beauty and power. It’s grace and passion. Jeep Grand Cherokee is the vehicle that everyone wants to drive.
I hate writing about myself. You want me to write about a car. Definitely. Auto finance? Now you’re talking! Me? Snoozefest. But since I have all this space just begging to be filled, I’m going to give this a shot. The auto industry started calling my name way back in 2001. I cut my teeth…
