Crossovers and SUV serve a multitude of purposes nowadays, whether it's a simple trip to the mall or a rugged bash through Durango's tough weather, vehicles like the Jeep Grand Cherokee or Dodge Durango provide drivers with the luxury, comfort and ability to tackle many challenging driving situations. However, the SUV had different beginnings when a Jeep model (the first true sport utility vehicle) was used for military and off-road purposes. These days, 95 percent of SUV owners don't take their vehicles off-road, but don't tell that to the proud owners of a Jeep Wrangler. 85% of Wrangler drivers have taken their vehicle off-roading!

Here at Morehart Murphy Regional Auto Center we're not surprised. The Wrangler has a very reasonable starting price of only $22,395 this year, making it more popular than ever. The stretched, four-door Wrangler variant, in particular, is proving very popular with families. It now makes up about 70 percent of the brand's overall sales. Jim Repp, vehicle development manager for the Wrangler, explains the impact of the appeal behind the vehicle, stating "We are struggling to meet demand. We are now running two 10-hour shifts without breaks, and we'll still have 30,000 carryover orders."1

The 2014 Jeep Wrangler is here in Durango, CO and ready for all-terrain enthusiasts to rally till their heart's content. Seven trim levels are available and Morehart Murphy Regional Auto Center can help you decide between all the options and find you the Wrangler that's perfect for your driving style and budget.
