Earlier in the week at the 2011 Easter Jeep Safari in Moab, Utah, Mopar unveiled some of its newest Jeep and Ram creations developed by the Mopar Underground. A few days later, the media was invited to get behind the wheel of some of these rides on the trail.

Aside from the “Moparized” Jeeps hitting the trails, the engineering team behind the Dodge Ram truck line also traveled to Moab, bringing with them a group of new Power Wagons that we also got on the trails. For the Jeep group, we tackled Fins and Things in the morning, and in the afternoon we took the long-wheelbase Power Wagons on Poison Spider in the afternoon.

In the group of Moparized Jeeps, we had the Cherokee Overland on the ride, the Canyon Compass, a stock Grand Cherokee, Call of Duty Wrangler Rubicon and a few others. We swapped vehicles during the ride to feel the difference and challenge each section in a new Jeep vehicle.

After lunch, we ventured over to Poison Spider with the Ram Trucks crew in the Power Wagons. Another group of journalists tackled Hell’s Revenge in the morning, but due to crowds we ventured to Spider in the afternoon. Although a few journalists in the group might’ve doubted the Power Wagons’ ability to tackle the trail with such a long wheelbase, our group cruised up with of the tougher climbs with relative ease. Only a few times did the trucks drag on the rocks.
