Ok, so from time to time at the grocery store, I check out the various off-road magazines (Jp, Four Wheeler, 4-Wheel & Off-Road, etc.) and buy one when there is an article I'm interested in.

In the May 2011 Four Wheeler magazine currently on newstands, they got all of the 2011 Jeep models together to review. Pretty predictable observations of each Jeep model. But then on page 67, there is a photo of KK Renegade wheeling in some snow and mud with the following caption:

May 2011 Four Wheeler magazine wrote:
While we were in Jackson Hole, we got a chance to take out all of the new Jeeps for a little snow wheeling on a nearby cattle ranch. Of all the models we drove, the Liberty was arguably the most pleasant surprise, with a rock-friendly wheelbase, minimal rear over-hang, and good forward visibility afforded by its relatively low belt line, all of which helped make navigating the slushy snow tracks a breeze. We also really like the way the Renegade trim package looks. Now can we just have our Italian diesel back?

Is it just me or does anyone else note a presumed typo or blatantly incorrect statement in their complimentary caption on the KK?

Are you talking about the "minimal rear overhang?" Or the "relatively low belt line?" :ROTFL:

:lol: "minimal rear over-hang"....when I read that, I had to reread it and then said "are you kidding me"? I'm guessing they must've meant "minimal front overhang"......
