Spokane might just be one of the most beautiful places to live in the world, but we may be a little biased here at Lithia Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Spokane. Like most Washingtonians, we love getting out into the thick of it, communing with nature, and getting back to the basics. One of our favorite ways to appreciate everything nature has to offer is by surveying the path from the driver’s seat of one of our Jeep brand vehicles. If we’re lucky, we’ll Ford a shallow river or two, as well! If that all sounds good, this next video staring the 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk is sure to bring a smile to your face as it calls attention to some unsung heroes of the Jeep brand—skid plates!

Hearing your skid plates scrape across a rock surface for the first time can be a little unnerving, but it’s a sound you’ll come to appreciate more and more as you and your Jeep brand vehicle conquer a growing list of trails and rock faces. The sound may be loud and caustic, but the skid plates are service a very important purpose: protecting the innards of your vehicle, such as the fuel tank, oil pan, or your transfer case, just to name a few. So the first time your ears are greeted with that big, satisfying scrape, don’t fret—just smile with the knowledge that you’re breaking your 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk in the right way.

So, summer is on its way out, but there’s still time to see it off on a high note. Come on into Lithia Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Spokane, found on 10701 N. Newport Highway, Spokane, WA. We’ve got the 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk and a great selection of other Jeep brand models, so bring us your heaviest driving demands and we’ll help you locate the perfect vehicle to tackle them all!
