Camp Jeep is at the Houston Auto Show 20223 and we have the Car Clinic.

People go to car shows to see the latest stylings in the automotive world - bright chrome, luxury interiors, and a lot of performance under the hood.  Buyers or just thinking about buyers often do a side-by-side comparison to narrow down choices without having to go to several different dealerships. Even with the additional ride and drive opportunities being developed, more and more people want real life experiences with off-road vehicles.  That is tough to do, but Jeep has developed the Camp Jeep concept.   It is designed to show off some of the capabilities of the Jeep products in an off-road environment.  Not exactly out in the rocks or mud, but pretty close. Sergio Armenta joins to let us know about Camp Jeep. In our Feature Segment Jeff Dziekan shares about luxury brand Cadillac getting into F1 racing! ---- ----- Want more In Wheel Time Car Talk any time?
