Jeep Wrangler Freedom Edition Pays Tribute to the US Military

Posted on by

Jeep is planning on paying tribute to the US Military by introducing a new version of the popular Jeep Wrangler.

Allpar.com has a full run down of the new 2012 Jeep Wrangler Freedom Edition. Being based on the Wrangler Sport, the new Freedom Edition will come in a choice of either two door or a four door. As far as visuals go, there will be three colors and those are deep cherry red, bright white, and true blue. These colors are exclusive just to the Wrangler Freedom. That’s not all it will offer in visual flair as the Jeep comes with graphics that include a star decal right on the hood and in the back complete with the words “Oscar Mike” on the fender badge. Anyone who has played a military video game in the past decade knows, “Oscar Mike” means “on the move.”

The insides of the Wrangler Freedom also offer something unique and different. It will have black seats with a tectonic fabric. “Oscar Mike” also sneaks its way inside to be a logo embroidered on the seat backs and in silver stitching. The steering wheel, front arm rest, and the doors will have a french silver accent stitching. Satin Chrome spokes on the steering wheel along with a Mopar Slush Mat finish up the package.

There’s an added bonus to the sales of the Jeep Wrangler Freedom Edition. For every one sold, Jeep will be putting $250 towards an important charitable organization the will benefit both current and returning military members.

Jeep has always had something to offer everyone. If you’re in the mind to give back to our service men and women and have something in return, it seems the Freedom Edition is custom made just for you.

Posted on by

The sales numbers for the month of June have come out and to many people’s surprise, they are still going strong for the industry. One of the best success stories to come out of the sales figures, however, is from Jeep.

According to the Associate Press the Jeep Grand Cherokee saw a great sales boost in the month. SUV’s have been under some scrutiny of late due to the high cost of gas in recent months. It’s made many in the industry wonder if dark days were ahead for the vehicles with new hybrids starting to take center stage. That doesn’t seem to be the case anymore with the Grand Cherokee having its best June sales since 2005. That’s a 38 percent increase this year.

The Grand Cherokee has always been a heavy fan favorite for the Jeep brand. Just last week, we wrote about the SUV getting a brand new variant in the form of the Jeep Grand Cherokee S Limited. There’s a reason why it’s the most awarded SUV ever and is a recommended buy of Consumer Reports.

Go online to the Bayside showroom to take a look at the famous SUV for yourself. To stay up to date on Jeep news and deals through the dealership, like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter.
