Jeep's Facebook Overload

Administrators of the official Jeep Facebook page posted a status update yesterday instructing fans to submit their personal Jeep photos to Flickr instead of Facebook. While this move by Jeep seems counterintuitive, the American manufacturer apparently had so many photos being uploaded by fans they exceeded Facebook’s photo album size for Photos by Others with 20,000 total photos. Instead of asking fans to stop submitting photos, they are sending fans to Flickr for photo uploads while Facebook “fixes the glitch”.

2011 Dodge Charger

A reader from the Top Speed Blog was able to catch a glimpse of the back end of the 2011 Dodge Charger. According to the Top Speed Blog, the reader was able to catch the muscle car taking a break from its testing in Florida and, although it is still bandaged up, you could still see some revised taillights and some hid headlights. The reader was able to take a peek on the inside and that revealed a unique two-tone leather interior that he said “looked upscale for a Dodge.”

Jeep Wranglers Set World Record

Two Jeep Wranglers recently set a new world record for high altitude climbing in South America. The two Jeeps scaled the Ojos del Salado mountain range in Chile.

It is officially the highest climb by an internal combustion. The two Jeeps climbed 21,804 feet above sea level, allowing them to set the record of the highest altitude ever reached by a 4x4.

Planet Dodge knows that Jeep Wrangler can reach no limits its owners might imagine. See the Jeep Wrangler today at Planet Dodge Humble.

Wrangler gets US readers vote

A recent article stated that the iconic Jeep Wrangler has won the US-based ‘Inside Line’ magazine’s “Readers’ Most Wanted” Award. The article also said that;

In recognizing the Jeep Wrangler, ‘Inside Line’ called the vehicle “one of the few automotive icons in this world. It’s stayed true to its heritage and deserves the win, even in this strong, competitive group.”

Earlier this year, Jeep Wrangler was named the “Best and Most Significant 4x4 Vehicle of the Decade” by Four Wheeler magazine editors, and the “Best New Car For Off-Roaders” by Cars.com.

Dodge Challenger Stock Car to Make Debut at Daytona

Although it was short-lived, the first-generation Dodge Challenger has some racing history as a Trans Am car, and now the new generation retro muscle car is coming back to the track. The Challenger body style will officially make its race debut in the NASCAR Nationwide Series tomorrow evening at the Daytona International Speedway.

Although we first saw Dodge's new Challenger stock car last fall, the new car will finally hit the track for real tomorrow evening in the Subway Jalapeno 250 at Daytona. The Challenger, much like Ford's new Mustang stock car, will compete in four Car of Tomorrow events scheduled during the 2010 Nationwide season. Both Justin Allgaier (#12) and Brad Keselowski (#22) are set to pilot Challengers in tomorrow's race.

"Our new Challenger race car brings true identity back to NASCAR," Ralph Gilles, Dodge's brand president, said in a prepared statement. "We've been looking forward to this race weekend for quite some time, and our loyal owners and fans are going to have a lot of opportunities to celebrate the return of the Challenger."

As part of the celebration, Dodge will host nearly 100 Challengers -- and their owners -- during the race weekend in Daytona, including Saturday's Sprint Cup Series Coke Zero 400 race. The automaker will hold several activities to keep fans entertained throughout the weekend, but we imagine true gearheads will be preoccupied by watching a new generation of muscle car wars unfold upon the banked oval.
