Rocky Mountain Automotive Press Association Names Jeep Grand Cherokee “SUV of the Year”

Posted on by

The most awarded SUV ever is keeping their winning streak going in 2012, snatching up the Rocky Mountain Press Association’s SUV of the Year.

So far this year, the Jeep Grand Cherokee has already won the 2012 MotorWeek Drivers’ Choice Award, Ward’s Top 10 Best Engines, and TFLCar.com’s Top Ten Most Fun to Drive Cars for 2012. The Rocky Mountain Press Association Award, though, is very special. The Jeep brand has always embraced the great outdoors and built cars that are tough enough to handle whatever drivers throw at them. Getting named SUV of the Year from a group that is so familiar with off-road and mountain road driving is pretty fantastic.

You can check out TFLCar’s video review and off-road driving test of the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee below. Be sure to check out Bayside’s inventory of new and used Jeeps online here, and keep up to date with the latest news from Jeep by liking Bayside on Facebook or following Bayside on Twitter.

“Techno Jeep” Gets Second Life Online

Posted on by

Over 2 years ago, Julian Smith of Julian Smith TV uploaded his music video “Techno Jeep” to YouTube. Recently, however, the video has seen a resurgence of sorts, and this inventive and infectious video has been making the rounds again.

“Techno Jeep” is a techno song performed using parts of a Jeep. Anything is game from a percussive door slam to the clicking locks and the revving engine. According to the description of the video, the musicians rehearsed for 2 weeks before shooting the video, and they shot for 7 hours until they got the perfect single-shot take. You can watch the video here:

A free ringtone version of the song is also available for free here.

Most of the viewers who responded to “Techno Jeep” have been surprised that Jeep would inspire a filmmaker and a group of musicians to make such a creative tribute to a car brand. It shouldn’t be so surprising, though. Jeep has a history of devoted fans and continues to reward their loyalty with fantastic new cars year after year. Hopefully more fans will be inspired by“Techno Jeep” and we will see more Jeep-themed music and videos in 2012.
