As only those who live in Reno, Sparks, Carson City, and Auburn, California know, living in the desert certainly has its perks. What other see as a desolate wasteland, we see as a gorgeous landscape, full of beautiful plant and animal life, stunning vistas, and for those who are rugged enough, almost unlimited off-roading fun. Recently, Jeep Brand and Pennzoil released a video, starring the Trail-Rated™ Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon, to remind everyone just how they dominate the off-roading world.
Now, as hot as it gets out here in Nevada, it's even hotter down in the Baja Desert of Mexico. With temperatures reaching a scorching 130 degrees Fahrenheit during the day, and even hotter under the hood of a car, it's not uncommon for this sun-bleached wasteland to eat lesser off-roading vehicles alive. Luckily, sun-bleached wastelands are just the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon's cup of tea. With plenty of terrain to take on, the Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon's 3.6-liter Pentastar® V6 engine certainly had its work cut out for it in this video. But with Pennzoil synthetic pumping through it, the engine is able to efficiently put its massive 260 pound-feet of torque to good use, conquering everyting from low-traction sand dunes to steep, rocky ridges, and everything in between.
So, if this video has you itching to hit the very dusty trails that surround Reno, you're going to want a vehicle that loves the desert as much as you do. So, stop by Lithia Chrysler Jeep of Reno to test drive the incomparably rugged Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon today!
