What Trail Rated Means for Your Jeep

At Casa CDJR in Alamogordo, NM, we take pride in offering the best off-road vehicles to our customers. The Jeep Trail Rated® badge is a symbol of off-road capability and is awarded to Jeep models that pass a series of rigorous tests, ensuring they can handle even the toughest trails. Trail Rated® Jeeps are guaranteed to withstand the elements and provide a safe and enjoyable driving experience on and off the road. In Alamogordo and surrounding areas, a Jeep SUV from Casa CDJR is perfect for off-road adventures.

What Trail Rated® Includes

Our Trail Rated® Jeeps are tested in five categories: traction, water fording, maneuverability, articulation, and ground clearance. To earn the Trail Rated® badge, a Jeep must score at least 4 in each category.

Traction, essential for off-road driving, is enhanced by features such as all-wheel drive, hill descent control, and traction control. Our Jeeps can handle slippery conditions with ease on Red Sand’s trails and beyond.

Water fording is another crucial off-road capability. Jeeps from Casa CDJR are designed to wade through water up to 30 inches deep, thanks to their sealed electrical system and air intake. This makes them perfect for crossing streams and rivers if you ever find yourself off-roading outside of the Chihuahuan Desert.

Maneuverability is also important for off-road driving. Jeeps at Casa CDJR are designed for tight spaces, with their short wheelbase and wide track, making them perfect for navigating narrow trails in and around Juando Pass.

Articulation, or the ability to move over uneven terrain without bottoming out, is another key Jeep feature. With a high level of articulation, Jeeps from Casa CDJR can easily travel over rocks and other obstacles around Alamogordo’s off-road areas.

Ground clearance, the distance between the vehicle’s underside and the ground, is another Jeep strength. High ground clearance allows Jeeps to traverse rough terrain without scraping the bottom, ideal for exploring off-road trails near Hackberry Lake.

At Casa CDJR, we also ensure that our Jeep vehicles are tested on a variety of other off-road trails, ensuring they’re ready for the most challenging conditions. Trail Rated® Jeep models perfect for Alamogordo and surrounding areas include:

  • Jeep Wrangler
  • Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
  • Jeep Gladiator
  • Jeep Cherokee
  • Jeep Grand Cherokee
  • Jeep Renegade

This alliance has helped keep service members connected to family, home, and country. In addition to this, Jeep also offers the Military Incentive Program, providing active and retired military personnel, among others, with military bonus cash to use toward select 2023 vehicles.
