Jeep Wrangler gets better with age

Jeep® Wrangler gets better with age.

The Toledo made Jeep® Wrangler may be getting better with age, The Toledo Blade claims.

The Wrangler had its best ever monthly sales in July following its 70th birthday last month, The Blade reports.

In honor of that occasion, AOL Autos highlighted some historical Jeep trivia. For example, the original design for the Willys Jeep® was put together in an amazing 49 days.
More than 640,000 Jeep 4x4s would be built during World War II, AOL Autos said.

By the end of the war, the Jeep name was established not only in the United States but in the places it had fought: Germany, Italy and North Africa. General. George C. Marshall called Jeep "America's greatest contribution to modern warfare."

Over the years, Jeep vehicles have been made in 23 countries, the story said.

The company has been expanding the distribution of Jeep models in Europe, and the Chrysler Group CEO says that he is open to building any Jeep model abroad to serve a local market - except for the Wrangler, AOL Autos said.
