Like video games? Like cars? Well, kick the tires and light the fires as Jeep gets ready to unload the action with the 2011 Jeep Wrangler Call of Duty: Black Ops Edition.
The Liberty looks good, in a utilitarian, purposeful way. It doesn’t overdo it, like a Hummer would have—it isn’t gargantuan, hulking or a cartoon of itself. But it looks chiseled and solid. The interior has some nice touches like a very vertical A-pillar and a dash that is only a few inches deep. That gives a retro feel that fits the oeuvre on offer here.
Dodge has just announced its revamped three-row SUV offering, the personality- (and chrome) laden 2011 Durango.

It’s about that time of year again; if you’re a member of the 21-or-close-enough set, you’re likely to be planning some kind of splashy road trip to the sun-drenched lands.

Our top picks for Spring Break cars put an emphasis on image, with a bone thrown in for practicality, occasionally.
Today, a 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 roared into the Winding Road parking lot. We’ll have it on hand for about a week, so feel free to ask us any questions you may have about it.
In automotive terms, a “sleeper” is a car that doesn’t look like it’ll do much damage, but once it hits the road, it’s a real performance dream.
