Curious as to what Jeep Trail Rated® is? Don’t stress and don’t go digging, we have your answers right here on this week’s blog! And when you’re finished, if you are interested in seeing more of what these capable models have to offer, stop in to see our team or schedule your test drive online today! We look forward to helping you find the Jeep of your dreams! 

What is Jeep Trail Rated®? 

A Trail Rated® badge is earned on Jeep 4×4 vehicles that have succeeded against a series of grueling tests in five separate categories. Those five categories include traction, water fording, maneuverability, articulation, and ground clearance. 

Why we test:  

Pushing our Jeep vehicles to the limit is just part of the Jeep brand DNA. As long as we are striving to find and recreate groundbreaking capability that allows you to pursue exhilarating adventure. We promise to keep testing and pushing our models to the limits so anything you encounter you can battle with ease! 

Where we test: 

Jeep Trail Rated® testing starts at the state-of-the-art facilities at FCA US headquarters. After that, we head out to the most challenging terrains earth has to offer! When you drive a Jeep® Brand Trail Rated 4×4 vehicle, you can rest assured that your Jeep doesn’t just endure the hostile cold of Northern Michigan and the unforgivable boulders of the Rubicon, it conquers them. Add in some of the most treacherous trails and worst weather conditions only to prove their true remarkable Trail Rated capability.

If you’re one of the lucky people who have a garage, you know that your garage is the place that you toss all of your belongings that don’t have a designated home. And if you’ve been using your garage as a receptacle, it’s likely that organization is the last thing on your list. But this week we want to focus on that organization and help you find a plan that will get your items in check. Take a look below and if you’re ready to upgrade your ride, come see our team because we guarantee there is a perfect CJDR waiting for you right here! 

Set aside the time to tackle the project 

• Allow yourself an ample amount of time to tackle the project at hand. We know you might not want to sacrifice an entire weekend, but it’s usually your best option. Always choose a dry weekend as no one wants to work in the rain. 

Categorize your items and group them together 

• When you’re cleaning out your garage, categorize the times and keep like items together. This will help you organize and find them a home when it’s time to fill the garage back up. For example, keep camping gear together, recreational sports gear together, seasonal decor together, you get the idea! 

Find your layout 

• Your garage should have a layout that flows and considers the frequency of item usage when giving your gear a home. For example, your garbage cans and recycling should live near the entrance. Tools should live near your workbench. Use the ‘valuable real estate’ idea when giving your items a home. 

Install an organization plan 

• Whether you choose built-in cabinets, modular storage, or another organizational system, it’s a great idea to have your plan in place and stick to it. Make the most of the vertical space in your garage, mounted pegboards work perfectly for this. Also, stick to your plan by cleaning and organizing biannually, every quarter, whatever you choose. 

Picture this, it’s springtime, you’re riding down the road when all of a sudden your vehicle starts to slow up, you’re losing power, and it’s making a very weird noise. What’s happening to your ride? Well, you might have finally put an end to that old, beat-up ride but now you’re stranded in the middle of your road trip. What a bummer! Don’t let that be you this spring. Upgrade your ride this February right here at Zappone CJDR in Granville! Come see our team for a test drive & let’s get on the road!
