What makes a great test drive? Well, the obvious answer to the question is that a great car, truck, or SUV like a 2019 RAM 1500 or a 2019 Chrysler 300. And of course that’s true, but a really successful test drive takes a little more. After all, you may love the Jeep® Cherokee, but maybe a Jeep Renegade is actually a better choice for you. So how do use your test drive to make sure you’re getting exactly the right model for you and your family?

There are a few things you’ll want to think about when making your test drive checklist. The first is what you plan to do with your new car. Will you be mainly driving yourself to work, or will you regularly be hitting the road with the whole family? If it’s the second, you may want to bring a spouse or older child to test out the back seat features and comfort. You’ll also want to plan on driving the car in a variety of conditions, especially those that will mimic your regular use – take it out on the highway, find some stop-and-go traffic, even practice parking in a crowded lot or on the street.

We also suggest doing some research on special features you might want to test out. Our vehicles are full of exciting advanced technology, like the Uconnect® system that allows for everything from remote starts to easy syncing with your devices. Be sure to test out any safety or technology features that are particularly exciting or unfamiliar to you while you’re testing the car out.

By taking a little time to plan for your test drive, you’ll get not only a great vehicle, but a great test drive.
