With the most standard safety and security features in the class, it’s no wonder the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety (IIHS) has named the Jeep® Grand Cherokee a “Top Safety Pick” for 2010 with the highest standards for crash test performance.
This feature highlights the Jeep Rocks and Road Tour, an 0n-road off-road driving experience for consumers. The first tour took place in Syracuse, New York. For more information go to www.jeep.com/rocksandroadtour.
===PLEASE READ=== NOTE: I didn’t jump the Jeep. I recorded/edited this. First off, please watch the whole video from beginning to end before you click around. Heres the story. It was Saturday, November 3, 2007, and some of my friends decided to go off roading. Me (camera), Skyler (Jeep driver), Bobby (passenger), and Nick (Tacoma driver/runner). As for the jump. The Bumblebee flew a good 45+ feet (13.71+ meters). In regards to any sort of injuries. Both of them are fine as you could tell. Skyler just had a bump on his head (hit the roll bar, that’s why he was holding his head when he got out) and Bobby is fine, quite impressive since his side took the impact. For The Bumblebee. She’s totalled. Front right suspension is gone, driveshaft too. Frame is bent. Some parts of the engine were loose. Held up pretty well for such a Hollywood jump.
Never worry about your night vision again. New SmartBeam™ BI-Xenon High-Intensity headlamps automatically dim the high beams when it senses the headlights of oncoming traffic or the tail lights of vehicles ahead of you. Just another bright idea from the engineers at Grand Cherokee.
Drive confidently in all kinds of weather with Electronic Stability Control*. It automatically reduces front and rear-wheel slippage, giving you the best possible grip on the road.
An air-suspension system that adjusts the height of the Grand Cherokee to be more aerodynamic at one extreme and capable of greater ground clearance at the other.
