Breaking In Our New PEAK Jeep Wrangler!
I almost feel like I robbed a bank or something as I carefully drove our brand new Jeep Wrangler out of the station parking lot to embark on my first long weekend road trip. Not only was I the last vehicle to make the ferry, but I thought that I looked pretty damn cool in this baby. WHEN YOU DON’T SLEEP BECAUSE REALITY IS BETTER THAN YOUR DREAMS!
I think that’s something fancy people call “dream come true?”
Owning a Jeep was always my dream car as a kid and this Wrangler doesn’t disappoint. The handling is so smooth for windy, abandoned roads, yet it’s the most powerful and safe-feeling vehicle I’ve ever been behind. Also wanna point out the speaker system is like WOW, I’m never gonna let anyone tell me to turn it down again.
Also, FUEL EFFICIENCY. I drove up and down the west coast and only spent $70 on a tank of gas for four days of gallivanting. This included camping, lying in a hammock, reading next to the ocean, eating the best tacos, picking up growlers of beer from two different coastal craft breweries, hanging with puppies, hiking near waterfalls, and cruising through used book stores [all versions of my perfect long weekend adventure road trip].
There’s a new thing called an idle-free engine, which, because I drive an old-ass car usually means that the engine cuts while idling so you’re not burning fuel or killing the world more than necessary. WHAT?
Next time you see it, she’ll be dressed up in PEAK logos but I can’t wait to take her out on another road trip this summer. She is the perfect companion [we just need to name her, any suggestions?]. Thank you to our friends at BC Jeep Dealers and Jeep Canada!!!!
