The 50s saw the rise of the recreation vehicle, as well as engineering superiority. In the 60s, Jeep Brand grew to include 14 models, for work, play, recreation and luxury transportation. Skipping ahead to now, the Jeep Wrangler expands your room with a view. An icon, a legend, for over 70 years. Adventerously Civilized. Jeep Wrangler.

Vehicle Feature: Toyota FJ Land Cruiser

Legendary reputations don't come easily. The FJ Cruiser started over 60 years ago, when its predecessor; then called the BJ, ventured up MT. Fuji and accomplished something no other vehicle in history had. The BJ Land Crusier made it to checkpoint 6 and from then on Toyota had an emergence of Land Cruisers as an off road icon.

Through the years Toyota has produced more than 4 million vehicles and the FJ Cruiser embodies all the rugged capabilities that the early Toyota SUVs became known for. Introducing, the 2012 Toyota FJ Cruiser. Moving Forward.

25 degree grades, frame bending boulders and dizzying drop-offs. This is the sort of challenges you think only specialized vehicles were designed for. But after 6 decades of off-road experience, the FJ Cruiser can handle them all. It's V6 engine churns out 260 horsepower and 271 pounds per foot of torque, in part thanks to Dual Independent Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (or VVT-i).

The available 6-speed manual transmission features a 2-speed transfer case as well as an electronic controlled locking rear differential, to help ensure the power goes where it's needed. The independent front suspension system delivers nearly 8 inches of wheel travel while the 4-link rear suspension with lateral rod provides more than 9 inches.

It's no surprise a vehicle like the FJ Cruiser is able to reach trail's end in one piece. With it's Vehicle Stability control, which adjusts engine power and braking makes the FJ an ideal vehicle for pavement. You may find gloating makes the drive home shorter. the 2012 Toyota FJ Land Cruiser. Moving Forward.

1960s FJ Cruiser

There's not a lot of level ground in the FJ Cruiser's natural habitat. That's why the FJ offers equipment to help keep you in control at all times. Also available, the Multi-Information Display complete with an inclinometer, JBL Audio System, and standard Bluetooth Wireless Technology. That, and the steering wheel mounted controls will help keep your hands on the wheel.

A true measure of strength is enduring an extreme challenge and then having the ability to dust yourself off. By that standard, the FJ Cruiser is well put together. The passenger seat is designed to fold way forward, to easily load passengers and cargo. Adding even more flexibility are the two full size passenger doors and to rear access doors. Together they open wide making it easier to clean out dust and debris each time you emerge from one of nature's obstacle courses.

Also available, rear cargo tie down hooks, versatile cargo capacity and 115v AC Power outlet. The 2012 FJ Cruiser. Moving Forward.

Minot Chrysler Toyota Parners with MSU Broadcast Students

We here at Minot Chrysler are proud to announce a partnership with the MSU Broadcast Department for the 2011 KMSU Auction. In past years Cartiva has partnered by donating some cool things to the auction but since 2011 has been a very trying year for everyone along the Mouse River, we have decided to give back to the community.

The KMSU Auction is in it's 13th year and has grown from just a few items to taking in over $30,000 in retail worth last year. The Auction raised over $15,000 giving part of the money to the Second Story Adult Club. This year however is a little different. After many students participated and even went through the 2011 Flood Fight, student in the KMSU Auction wanted to give back. Instead of using the Auction as a fundraiser for themselves, they decided to give the majority of the proceeds back to the community. On December 6th, 2011, most of the proceeds from the Auction will go directly to a family. The family will be picked from an entry form that was filled out by individuals (they are still accepting applications until the 21st of November and can be found at http://www.minotchrysler.com/) and awarded after the closing date of November 21st.

For more information about the KMSU Auction, go to http://www.kmsuauction.com/ or http://www.http//kmsu19.com/KMSU_Auction.html. Tune in on December 6th at 6:30pm on Midcontinnet Channel 19 or SRT Channel 19 or online at http://kmsu19.com/KMSU_TV_Channel_19.html.

'Snow good when it snows!

After having such a nice day yesterday, here in Minot, it was a little alarming to awaken to a few inches of snow on the ground. Especially after the weather forcast was not forcasting snow. But alas, the snow is here and it makes me wonder how we can overcome this obligatory snowblowing we will have to do during the winter. There may be a solution to the dreaded woes of winter. Recently a customer purchased a new Jeep Rubicon Wrangler and had a small modification added to the Jeep. This is something you wouldn't think about putting on a Jeep Wrangler but it was done. A snow plow.

Our first thoughts of this, were that of disbelief and amazement. But if you think about it, a Jeep Wrangler is like an ATV just a little bigger. It should get plenty of traction on the snow to push the snow around. However after thinking more about this, sudden worries started to creep up on our end. What happens to the warranty on the front suspension? Is this really a good idea for such a small vehicle? In order to further answer these questions we had to do a little research.

Fist things first: the Warranty. In this case or in any case like this, the warranty is not automatically voided just because you put a plow on your vehicle. If the plow starts to cause an issue and can be determined that the plow is the cause then it voids the warranty. Of course this becomes a very gray area so to really answer that question, our service reps here at the dealership would do some testing, a little research, then probably call a Chrysler Rep. to get the absolute call on this.

Second of all: how good does a smaller vehicle like this handle with a snow plow. For that answer we must turn to the company that makes the plow. According to http://www.thehomeplow.com/ it works just as well as larger trucks with commercial grade snow blades. Actually, the majority of the vehicles shown on this website, are smalle SUV types like the Jeep Wrangler and Liberty. If you think about, a Wrangler should handle pretty well for light snow plowing. We really wouldn't suggest purchasing this if you own your own snow removal company. This is really designed for light duty work.

As a matter of fact, we aren't really saying go out and buy this for your SUV or Light Duty truck. All we are doing here is showing you there are accessories to help make your life a little better. A suggestion for all those truly interested in this is call our Service Department (701) 857-9245 and talk with someone about all the wear and tear and stress that a snow plow causes on the front of a vehicle. Not only is the suspension an issue but the transmission is going to be overworked because of the back and forth you do when plowing. After you have all that information, go to  http://www.thehomeplow.com/ and get the facts straight from the horse's mouth (so to speak).

So as we close this post, a glance out the window shows more snow falling, and a possible wish we still had this little guy out there to do our plowing for us. As we leave you with the thoughts we have provided above, we give you a few more pictures of the little guy:
