2015 Jeep Renegade -- a media/press trip review of new off-road SUV

Noted automotive journalist ALAN GELL was part of a media group invited to a Press Preview trip to test-drive the new 2015 JEEP RENEGADE.  This is his review of the vehicle and the trip.

This small SUV really is a JEEP, distinctive in design, quiet, sporty, aggressive, capable, with great mileage (30 mpg), and a low starting price.  Call it "cute" if you want to do so, but this is a terrific small Sport Utility Vehicle that can go off-road, tow light trailers, carry people or cargo.
