It was a Wednesday afternoon, and for some reason I just had a sudden “I need to go home” feeling. In this case, it was an unexplainable pull to go visit my parents a few hours away. Luckily Jeep had dropped off the top trim Grand Cherokee L Summit Reserve. With my on-loan conveyance ready…

It’s hard to fathom, but the Jeep Grand Cherokee (JGC) has been in production for…wait for it…thirty years. There it is, I said it. The ZJ generation was Jeep’s first attempt at a luxury SUV. With six and eight cylinder power the Grand Cherokee set up much of the basis of what we know the…

The 2021 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392. I came here to tell you that the 6.4-liter V8 engine is too big and too heavy for the Wrangler. I came to say that having 470-horsepower is just dumb in a vehicle that’s designed to conquer Moab. I expected to tell you that high center of gravity and…

Yes, this one is a hybrid; the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 4xe is one enticing electrified off-road machine. It pairs a four-cylinder turbocharged engine with a battery pack and electric motor to deliver 375 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. And there’s enough battery to see up to 20-25 miles of pure electric driving on a…

Honestly, I expected to spend my time with the Jeep Wrangler 4xe in a completely mixed state of mind. I would’ve wagered that adding a battery pack and electric motor to a Wrangler Rubicon would result in a confused vehicle. After putting over 1,000 miles on one, I can tell you that this is not…

Jeep has given the Gladiator a diesel mill, and I’m here to tell you it is good. The 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 cranks out an okay-ish 260 horsepower, but it also clatters forth with 442 lb-ft of torque. Jeep had to give this a beefier 8-speed gearbox to handle the grunt. But is it all worth…

A few days into my time with a 2020 Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon and I was falling for it. The charm alone was enough. Better yet, the Jeep was proving to be a comfortable, enjoyable road-trip companion in ways I hadn’t expected. And as we rounded the corner on our time with the JLUR, we finally…

The 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon is so much more to me than just a vehicle. You see, Jeep has a special place in my heart. The brand has always been my favorite, and for good reason: Most of my early childhood memories revolve around adventures, trips, and, yes, mishaps, in my dad’s 1989 YJ…
