Off-roadin’



A few weeks ago, Ed + I got to attend our 1st automotive press event together! We got invited to Calamigos Ranch in Malibu to go check out the entire Jeep lineup and spend some time behind the wheel. As Jeeps are known first and foremost for their off-roading prowess, we even got to take them on a trail and really put them to the test!

The 4-door Wrangler was pretty awesome, and I couldn’t deny how fun it was to drive. One of the auto journalists there gave me my 1st off-roading lesson and even though I was TERRIFIED to do it, it ended up being really awesome! You can see that I am a little tentative here … afterall, at one point I was facing straight down and they told me no gas and no brakes, just let the Jeep crawl! Well, it did … and it was exhilarating … and I kinda can’t wait to do it again! The best part was being able to have Ed as my drive partner. Maybe we will be the “Automotive Power Couple” that everyone jokingly calls us.

I can’t help but laugh when I see myself in the Jeep … this is so not my scene!

Someone had brought an old Jeep to the event and Ed + I couldn’t help be in awe of the retroness of its styling. We wouldn’t mind rocking one of these on a day trip either!
