If you're planning to take a vacation this summer, you've probably thought a bit about whether you'll fly or drive to your destination. While flying might get you there a little faster, there are plenty of reasons to consider hitting the road with your Jeep® brand vehicle instead. Here are just a few:
9. Your Jeep Brand Vehicle Will Never Leave Without You
If you choose to fly, you need to arrive at the airport hours in advance to check in, get your luggage in order, make it through security and find your gate. If you choose to take a road trip with your Jeep brand vehicle, you leave whenever you want. There's no worrying about missing your travel opportunity or getting stuck because of a layover. Your Jeep brand vehicle isn't going anywhere without you.
8. Your Seat Actually Reclines
On your road trip you will never have to hear, "Please make sure your seat is in the upright and locked position." Your Jeep brand vehicle was designed to help you have the most comfortable adventure possible. So go ahead, lean back, turn the radio up and settle in as you hit the open road.
7. No Airplane Food
You can make meals a part of your journey. Pack a picnic to bring along on your road trip and stop at a scenic park along the way. Instead of scarfing down a handful of peanuts, make some memories during your mealtime with good food, great scenery and even better company. Maybe your Jeep brand vehicle can even join you on your off-road excursion.
6. An Abundance of Window Seats
Don't get stuck in an aisle seat this summer. In your Jeep brand vehicle, you and your passengers can all have window seats and take in the scenery as you travel. Not only that, but if you see something exciting on your trip, you can stop and take a closer look. Take time to explore new things along the way. After all, that's what adventures are all about.
5. Stay Connected Wherever You Go
Don't worry about turning off your music, cell phone and all other electronic devices on your road trip. In fact, stay more connected than ever with the UConnect®system in your Jeep brand vehicle. UConnect®allows you to make a call, access your music or use GPS hands-free. With your summer road trip, there's no need to choose between entertainment and travel. You can do both.
4. Did We Mention the Leg Room?
We can't talk about the advantages of driving a Jeep brand vehicle over flying without mentioning the leg room. Designed to help keep you comfortable on the road, your Jeep brand vehicle works to offer ample room for you and all your belongings.
3. You Don't Have to Pay for Extra Bags
Speaking of your belongings, by choosing to take a road trip this summer, you don't have to worry about trying to cram everything into a carry-on bag in order to save a few bucks. And don't spend any time worrying about whether or not all your liquids can fit into three-ounce bottles.
2. You Get to Pick Your Passengers
Instead of spending your time in a confined space full of strangers, spend your travel time with your loved ones. Taking a road trip with friends and family almost guarantees that priceless memories will be made on the way to your destination.
1. Fresh Air
One of the best reasons to take a road trip instead of flying: fresh air. Why spend hours in a pressurized cabin when you could be driving down an open road on a sunny afternoon with the windows down? Or better yet, forget the windows and go topless with your Jeep Wrangler. Nothing beats the freedom of the open air around you.
