The people of Lexington, Kentucky, take off-roading to another level with a plethora of options to escape the beaten path. What better way to get your adrenaline pumping than enjoying time in the wild behind the wheel? So how do you get started? Off-roading requires a particular set of wheels to get the most out of your adrenaline-fueled trip. But not to worry! A used Jeep Wrangler has what you need to make that off-road experience magical! Some of the most famous areas to visit in your Wrangler include the Black Mountain Off-Road Adventure Area or Rush Off-Road on the eastern end of Kentucky. There is also the Land Between the Lakes Recreation (home to one of the biggest yearly Jeep Jamborees in the United States). Not to mention, there are many smaller off-roading areas in between. Kentucky is rich with opportunities to strut your off-roading stuff. A Wide Selection to Choose From In 2016, Jeep Wrangler created an impressive line of models built to meet all of your needs. On top of the standard trims, there were six unique limited edition models, including the Rubicon Hard Rock, 7th Anniversary, Freedom, Black Bear, Willys Wheeler, and Backcountry. Each of these models provided a unique facet to the Wrangler line up, proving that Jeep knows you like no other and is committed to matching your unique style with a vehicle that, though limited editions, brings a timeless quality all its own. While many of these changes sought to amp-up performance and add a bit of style, they also add to the unique flavor of each used Jeep Wrangler available. The Backcountry is just one of those impressive models designed to live up to its reputation as an off-roading dream. So how do you know the Backcountry can handle your wanderlust?
