Chrysler South Africa (CSA) is partnering with PinkDrive in support of Breast Cancer Awareness. The Jeep Wrangler is wrapped in a digital pink camouflage design to support the cause. The pink Jeep is making appearances at many events throughout South Africa from September 2011, such as media launches, sports events, high coffees, and lunch and a “Shout for Cancer” Concert. CSA said in a statement that “in this important year of Jeep’s 70th Anniversary, participating in causes as vital as PinkDrive reiterates Jeep’s community involvement”.

What PinkDrive is about:

PinkDrive is a campaign organized by the Cause Marketing Fundraisers (CMF), a non-profit group, committed to improving breast cancer awareness, education, and providing services to women across South Africa. Especially to the women that do not have access to the information or services on breast health.

PinkDrive has two mobile breast units, an education unit working in about 80 community health centers in Gauteng and a mammography unit, which operates at 3 community health centers in the Cape Town area under the Tygerberg Hospital jurisdiction.

PinkDrive’s goal is to provide affordable, convenient mammography services to women in the private and corporate sectors. Also to provide free scanning and education to disadvantaged communities via local clinics, community health centers and specified hospitals with no oncology facilities.

There are many alternate power sources offered today for any given Jeep. Two very reliable ones are LPG and the electric motor. Both of these options will give you a decrease in fuel consumption and cost. This may not seem apparent when you have to spend the initial amount to convert your gas guzzler into a   “green machine”. However, in the long run any of these power sources will save you money the planet at the same time.

Electric motors have been around for quite sometime, but it is only recently that they have become efficient enough to be considered as a replacement in your Jeep. These motors can produce the same amount of horse power and even an increase in torque.  This alternative is initially the most costly, but after that is paid for than the operation cost of your electrically powered Jeep is drastically less. On average, it cost nearly 15,000 dollars for the batteries, engines and all the other necessary components for the conversion. However, the cost of one “Gallon” of Electricity is about 75 cents. You can do the math on that one –big savings –as apposed to the current cost of gasoline. The electric engine does, however, have a relatively short range of operation –only able to go about forty miles on the electric engine alone. The hybrid version which has a small gas powered engine in addition to the electric motor has a range that far surpassed the range of the electric motor alone.

LPG is also a great way to decrease the operation cost of your Jeep. After the cost of the conversion kit and the tank that is required to run the LPG you are looking at around 2500 dollars depending on where you get your parts. The yearly cost for an average(14000 miles, half city and half highway) Jeep owner with a 4.0 flat six is around 3000 dollars. Which mean it would cost you a years worth of fuel cost in order to convert your Jeep to LPG. So, you would not be seeing any savings until one year after you implement the new fuel. After the first year you will see a major boast in your savings in fuel cost.

The good news is that the implication of either one of these alternatives with give you the same amount or even an increase in off-road capabilities. These conversion will save money you money, get more performance out of your Jeep and reduce your carbon footprint all at once.

The event is hosted by the Red Rock 4-Wheelers Inc. a local four wheel club of Moab, Utah. The Easter Jeep Safari consists of trail rides, mostly day long trips, departing from Moab Utah during the 9 day long event. Moab is referred to as the Mecca of four wheeling and rock climbing. Participants provide their own Jeep or other four wheel drive vehicle, also take care of their own food and non-alcoholic beverages. Lots of sunscreen, water, and layered clothing is essential for this event. There are a variety of trails for all levels of vehicles and drivers, from 2 wheel accessible to needing seriously modified vehicles. There are some special options including overnight runs on the Hole in the Rock trail, and several Ladies only Runs. Great fun for everyone!

This year’s Easter Jeep Safari will debut the new pickup version of the jeep wrangler. Chrysler released a DIY kit inspired by the iconic Jeep Scrambler CJ-8 from the 1980′s. Mopar designed the new kit to convert a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited into a pickup truck. The bed length is 50 inches and the width between wheel wells is 44 inches. Also, they created new body panels to cover the second-row entrance and removed all of the interior parts behind the front seats. The Jeep became a two-seater with just enough room for gear. The JK-8 drivetrain is fitted with a Mopar/Dyantrac ProRock 44 front axle and stock Dana 44 rear axle, both spun with 4.88 gears. A 4.5 inch long arm suspension kit links the axles to the frame with BF Goodrich Mud Terrain KM2 tires. The JK-8 kit also includes bed floor, inner/outer body panels, half hard top, and a new bulkhead.

These off-road treks have a long tradition dating back to 1953 when 4×4 pioneer Mark A. Smith organized the first ever Jeep Jamboree and voyaged across the Sierra Nevada Mountains by way of the old Rubicon Trail. In 1954, Willys Motors — then manufacturer of Jeep vehicles — became involved with the adventure, and Jeep Jamborees have been an off-road tradition ever since.” – Jeep Jamboree USA
