XPLORE Stage 1 Vehicle Packages have Katzkin leather interiors as a builder level for a broad range of options such as genuine Mopar Performance Parts and Accessories that were installed by the dealer. The XPLORE Stage 2 Vehicle Packages have Xplore/Method Racing aluminum wheels in black or machined-finish, Mopar cat-back exhaust, Bilstein 5100 Series shocks, and Xplore aluminum badges and floormats.

For some pretty serious stuff, XPLORE Stage 3 offers a set of BF Goodrich off-road tires, expedition quality ARB roof racks, rock-rails, roof-top tents, bumpers, tire carriers, Warn winches and IPF lighting. What makes it more awesome is that they can be bought as mix-and-match accessories. Those who buy an XPLORE Stage 2, 3 and built-to-order Stage 4 Jeep owners get a free, one-year annual pass to all national parks and other federal public lands. They will also be the recipients of a one-year subscription to XPLORE Adventure Journal.

2011 Jeep Compass

Jeep Compass has always been more like a pair of flip-flops—you could wear them on a trail, but in doing so you'd probably slip in the mud and stub your toe. This year, though, the Compass is toughening up. It's now officially "Trail Rated"—if you pony up for the Freedom Drive II off-road package. It's the same grouping of parts that have been available on the Compass's chassis mate, Jeep Patriot, for years.

No, don't expect Freedom Drive II to get you through a hardcore trail the way the legendary Rubicon could. But now—thanks to a 1-inch-higher ride height, 17-inch all-terrain tires, skid plates, tow hooks, 4WD Lock mode, Hill Descent Control and a continuously variable transaxle (CVT) with a lowered first-gear ratio—a Compass with Freedom Drive II can traverse surprisingly difficult terrain.

Compass's CVT has a clutch pack that diverts torque to the rear axle, and unique CVT programming to simulate a total "geared" reduction of 19:1. That ratio comes from multiplying the lowest forward ratio in the CVT (2.34:1) by the final drive of 8.14:1. For comparison, a Wrangler with an automatic transmission has a total reduction (or crawl ratio) of 31.7:1 when you multiply the first gear in the transmission by the low-range ratio in the transfer case by the axle ratio. What it all means is that despite the Compass's new ruggedness for 2011, a Wrangler could crawl up a trail nearly twice as slowly, offering the driver more torque and control.

The Compass completed the trail with no close calls or mechanical snafus. On a run like that, the Compass's limited off-road capability requires the driver to be more engaged and focused. And sometimes that can be a more rewarding experience than effortlessly cruising that same terrain in a more capable 4WD.
