Summer is just around the corner, are you ready? Jeep and Chrysler both have vehicle options to make your summer a breeze.

Jeep

No matter which Jeep you choose from the Renegade to the Wrangler, there are features all Jeep’s share that will make your summer easier than ever.

  • Are you the adventurous type? All Jeep models are capable SUVs that allow drivers to push the limits when adventuring outside. Consumers can go all out with a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, one of the most off-road capable models, but there are other models like the Renegade Trailhawk or Compass Trailhawk that are more budget-friendly. An off-road adventure is right around the corner.
  • If you like to camp, fish, hike, or do other outdoor activities over the summer, you need  space for equipment like fishing poles, tents, coolers and luggage. Every Jeep provides ample space for all of your cargo needs.
  • Most Jeeps are available with the option of deep tinted glass which keeps the inside much cooler and some of the tints even protect passengers and the driver from UV rays. Tint is a much needed feature for those who live in Florida during the summer!

Avoid Issues After Mudding by Cleaning Your Jeep

cleaning jeep after mudding

For the adventurous souls, nothing is as awesome as plowing through a mud hole (or many).The mud is the fun part! The struggle is afterwards trying to clean your Jeep. No worries though, follow the steps below and cleaning your Jeep after mudding will be easier than ever.

Do it soon

Like with many things in life, putting off cleaning your car after mudding may be what you want to do, but getting it done sooner than later is the way to go. The longer the mud stays on the vehicle, the harder it is to clean. As soon as mud dries it can cake onto a car like concrete, which can be bad for the vehicle, especially if it cakes onto the bottom side of the Jeep which you will learn more about below.

Get all of the cracks

Don’t forget to clean all those hard to get to spots! Wheel wells, bumpers, radiator, and even under the hood (be careful to avoid water on the mechanics). Be extra careful not to over due the wash by battery and engine because frying either of those items is a costly fix. Those components may be a hassle to get to, but if mud dries on those parts it can cause the vehicle to overheat and lead to other issues. Read the rest of this entry >>

Using your Jeep Wrangler to carry a surfboard

Ready to Shred? Get in the Jeep Wrangler and Go

Using your Jeep Wrangler to carry a surfboard

It shouldn’t be too much of a surprise that Jeep vehicles, especially the Jeep Wrangler, are popular among the surf community. The Wrangler’s removable top is ideal for transporting surf boards and a lot of the best surf spots around the world are only accessible with a 4×4 vehicle.

It’s not just a one way street though, Jeep also does their part to be among the surf crowd, too. Jeep is an official sponsor of the World Surf League and this year they created the retro-looking surf-inspired Wrangler/ Wrangler Unlimited Chief. So if you are on the hunt for a new vehicle and you will have a surfboard to bring around, check out a Jeep Wrangler and these accessories to make your ride to the ocean with a surfboard even easier.

Invest in a Rack

With a Jeep Wrangler it is always possible to take off the removable top and put a short surfboard (or a few) in the back. However, that is riskier for some long paddleboards and long surfboards, but a roof rack will solve that dilemma. There are plenty of different types and brands of racks available. Mopar makes some of our favorite roof racks and you can come visit us at the new Miami Lakes Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram  building for help with ordering any Mopar parts or accessories.
