The Jeep off-road test ride at the just-closed Chicago Auto Show turned out to be very popular with attendees, who showed their approval by voting it the best exhibit of the show. The test ride allows people to climb in a Trail-Rated Jeep with a driver and experience traverse boulders, logs, huge potholes, and steep hills all within the confines (is that an appropriate term for the cavernous McCormick Place?) of the show hall. Chrysler also had test rides set up for their passenger cars and trucks. Check out this previous post with videos of some of the other test rides, and check out the gallery to see Jeep ride.

I agree, I did one of these test drives at the 2005 New England International Autoshow in Boston, only it was called Camp Jeep, it was the best and thats why this family now owns a Jeep Liberty. Its a great tool, it shows just what these Jeeps are capable of.

Thank god DCX had one-third of the main hall rented out. They had crap to show off at the show, and seemed to rely solely on this exhibit as a reason for being there. If you took out the courses, you could easily rate DCX the most boring of the show, which is kind've disappointing.

Question: Has any Jeep Commander owner been having trouble with their brakes.

Jeep, you German owned traitor. My WW2 Veteran father still hasn't stopped rolling over in his grave. Hope you and the rest of the Chrysler gang my tax dollars were so generous in bailing out of death throes years ago gets buried next to Plymouth 6 feet under where you belong! Last Jeep I looked at had a Mexican engine-do you speak Spanish or German?
