Just recently, I took a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee for a spin in Dayton. Sitting in the driver seat, I quickly realized that this car just screamed luxury, but with a fine mix of comfort. From the black leather interior with white stitched trim to the modern and sleek gear shifter, this 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee is anything but ordinary. The vehicle does not use an ordinary key to turn on the car, but just the push of a button. After opening the sunroof, I shifted the vehicle into reverse to take a look at the back-up camera. Featured on the touch screen media hub, is the reverse aid in green, yellow, and orange, which tracks the vehicle movement with the tire movement.

I recently decided to take a 2013 Chrysler 200 for a spin in Dayton. Right off the bat, I noticed how sleek the interior looked. With a soft black leather interior, this vehicle impressed me right when I sat in the driver seat. The center of the control panel featured the classic silver Chrysler analog clock. After adjusting the power seat controls, I took this 2013 Chrysler 200 out on the road. The interior featured a traditional dashboard, a leather wrapped shifter, and seat warmers. When adjusting the interior features, it was noticeable how smooth everything is – from opening the door handle to the gear shifter to the air conditioning knobs.

The Chrysler 200 had quick and responsive braking, which was comforting when driving through the Dayton I-75 construction zones. The vehicle drove smoothly and handled beautifully when hugging the road curves. Not only did I feel safe from how well the 2013 Chrysler [...]

Jeep lovers will be surprised and delighted when the 2014 Jeep Cherokee will be debuted at the New York Auto Show this week. After a decade-long absence, the all-new Jeep Cherokee will have a complete design refresh that closely resembles the Jeep Liberty, according to jeepinthenews.com.

One of the features to be on the lookout for is the grill on the all-new 2014 Cherokee. The seven-slot grill will be more blended to the curvy hood and the design is smaller and thinner. The front headlights are split into two, also. With this new design, the front bumper is almost flush with the front of the vehicle. While there are many similarities, the 2014 Jeep Cherokee will not be as “boxy” as the Jeep Liberty.

There are not any public interior or rear photos of the 2014 Jeep Cherokee at this time. [...]

Dodge is said to bring the all-new 2014 Dodge Durango to the 2013 New York Auto Show, according to Autoguide.com. It is said to be debuting a 3.0-liter EcoDiesel engine. This might ring a bell, because it is same engine that has recently been introduced in the Jeep Grand Cherokee.

Although there have not been many details released, it is rumors that the 2014 Dodge Durango will feature an eight-speed transmission in addition to the EcoDiesel engine.

The Durango is also rumored to feature similar looks and design styles as the Jeep Grand Cherokee. It is anticipated that 2014 Dodge Durango will showcase an 8.4-inch LCD touchscreen Uconnect media hub system, as seen in the 2013 Dodge Dart.

According to the Auto News and Business News sections of the Detroit Free Press, Chrysler will be producing a special edition of the popular sedan, the Chrysler 200. The 1213.5 200 S Special Edition will be produced in limited quantities (2,000 vehicles) to dealerships across the country this summer, says Saad Chehab, head of the Chrysler Brand.

Chrysler teamed up Carhartt, an apparel line, to develop this sedan which features new look to the grille, wheels, and fascia. Starting at $28,870, the limited edition will be featured at the New York auto show on Wednesday.

Additionally, certain features of this new vehicle may be seen again next year in the next-generation midsize sedan, according to Chehab.

With the University of Dayton hosting the First Four NCAA Tournament, traffic in the Dayton area is going to be more congested than a normal week. In dense traffic situations combined with the unpredictable weather, it is important to have reliable brakes and a vehicle that has superior traction.

What exactly is traction? Traction allows the transfer of engine power into forward motion. The Jeep Liberty is designed to give you optimal traction in any condition. There are two different traction systems in the Jeep Liberty: the part-time Command-Trac II or full-time Select Trac II 4-wheel drive systems. Furthermore, the Jeep Liberty has an advanced brake lock differential which is an awesome feature that uses brake pressure to redistribute torque if needed.

To enhance traction, [...]
