Jeep Brand Wins Big at MudFeast!

Jeep won big up at the 24th annual “Mudfest”.

Between the two, Jeep and Ram trucks won three of the six vehicle categories with the all-new 2018 Jeep Wrangler taking home top honors, being voted “Northwest Outdoor Activity Vehicle of the Year” by automotive journalist members of NWAPA.

“Jeep has taken the Wrangler to a new level, adding safety, technology and on-road refinement to its unparalleled off-road prowess. NWAPA members were impressed by the Wrangler’s performance both on and off the road,” said John Vincent, President of NWAPA. “The 2019 Ram 1500 once again raises the bar for full-size pickup comfort and refinement. It features a cabin that rivals luxury cars, and capability to do any work that it is asked.”

In addition to taking overall top honors, the 2018 Jeep Wrangler was also named the winner of the Compact and Mid-size Utility class and the Extreme Capability class.

2013 Jeep Wrangler Takes Home Four Wheeler of the Year

The Jeep Wrangler has taken home numerous awards in the past including Cars.com’s Best New Car for Off-Roaders, SEMA Show’s Hottest 4×4, and Ward’s Top 4 Engine. Now for the third year in a row, the Jeep Wrangler has taken home Four Wheeler‘s Four Wheeler of the Year award.

The 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Moab Edition was announced as the winner early last week, and before it was named winner, Four Wheeler put the Jeep Wrangler through its paces. They tested it out on an off-road trail, pavement, and on a ramp, and they noted, “The Moab traversed all of the sand we threw at it, and it threw plenty back.”

In addition to road performance, they also looked at the vehicles interior and were obviously impressed with the Wrangler’s additional driver comforts. One judge said, “The inside is getting almost too nice for a Wrangler,” but the judges were ultimately happy with the leather seats, audio system, and 6.5-inch touchscreen display since it never affected the vehicle’s off-road performance.

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

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.
