The Jeep sure seems to be popular of late.  So popular that even the Pope is going to be driven around in one.  It certainly makes the idea of a Pope-mobile more enticing.

It is the first time that Pope Francis has come to America and what better way to travel than in one of America’s most popular vehicles.  The Jeep that he will be using as his new Popemobile is a Wrangler.  It seems that the new Pope is a fan of the Wrangler as he also used a four-door during his trip to Ecuador a few months ago.

It is an odd thing to see an American vehicle get so much press for simply being used to carry the Pope as he visits various cities, but I think it speaks volumes that during his time here that he is using vehicles from that country.  It definitely at least makes his ride nicer and more stylish, a far cry from the old bubble Popemobile.  Maybe he plans to take it off-road in his downtime.

I wonder if he’d be interested in a Charger or Challenger Hellcat for his next Popemobile.
