2011 Subaru Outback's state-of-the-art RCD mirror!

 Rear Camera Display technology is a hit with anyone who has ever needed to back up their vehicle, especially in tight quarters such as a parking lot. Subaru is now offering a Rear Camera Display option on the 2011 Outback. Not just any Rear Camera Display, we're talking state of the art RCD that displays on your rear-view mirror!

 The RCD mirror is also equipped with a compass that utilizes proprietary Z-Nav® technology, a highly-accurate sensor that determines the vehicle's directional heading, and universal garage door opener as part of the popular Power Moonroof Package. Vehicles equipped with a navigation system feature the RCD mirror with compass and garage door opener.

The RCD Mirror contains a liquid crystal display (LCD) that works with a video camera mounted at the rear of the vehicle to provide a view directly behind the vehicle while backing up. When the vehicle is shifted into "reverse," a display appears automatically through the auto-dimming mirror's reflective surface. The display disappears when the vehicle is shifted into any other gear, a capability that is made possible utilizing "transflective" coating and lighting techniques, which result in a bright, high-resolution color image.

 This is the second time Subaru has offered teh RCD mirror display, the first being in the 2010 Subaru Tribeca. Not a key feature, but given it's widespread acceptance as "awesome" by drivers accross the board, Subaru decided to grant this option to its popular Outback model for 2011. Gentex, the company behind the RCD technology is pleased with Subaru's decision and looks forward to providing automotive safety technology advances for the future.

2011 Subaru Forester jam packed with features!

  Subaru has released official details on what we will be seeing in the 2011 Forester. As mentioned before by Subie HQ the new 2.5-liter boxer four-cylinder engine will find its way under the CUV's hood, as will the same turbocharged 2.5-liter four-cylinder found in the current XT. Speaking of the XT, Subaru will now offer the range-topping Forester in XT Premium and XT Touring guises, with Touring trim replacing Limited as the top of the line. This series stuffs itself with luxuries like self-adjusting HID headlights, dual-zone climate control and a backup camera.

  Meanwhile, Subaru has packed in a few more goodies on nearly every trim level. Bluetooth hands-free calling and a one-touch up/down driver's window comes standard on every Forester with the exception of the very base model. In addition, it looks like both the 2.5X Premium and 2.5XT Premium will boast a new audio system complete with six speakers, USB and AUX inputs, as well as iPod and Satellite radio capability.

Give Blood at World Jeep Subaru Today!

Blood Mobile at World Jeep Subaru

Today between 12 and 6pm World Jeep Subaru in Tinton Falls, New Jersey you will be able to give blood and save a life...plus sign up for organ donation.  The event, sponsored by World Jeep Subaru is one that is near to our hearts, as several of our customers benefited from donations over the years.  There will also be refreshments served.

First look at new Call of Duty Jeep

 A few weeks ago Jeep mentioned it would be coming out with a new Jeep Wrangler celebrating the new Call of Duty: Black Ops game. We've got just a peek, but it sums up the details that differentiate the Call of Duty Jeep from its trimfolk. The CoD trim will be available on 2 and 4 door Rubicon Wranglers. All Wrangler, Rubicon and Trail Rated badges will be swapped to CoD badges, providing that authentic CoD look. Mopar is in on the action with black tail lamp guards and black fuel filler door. All this topped off with a matte black hood decal!

 The pictures here don't really do it justice, we'll have to wait and see what it looks like when one lands at our dealership! Remember, you can get one in any color, as long as it's black!

2011 Grand Cherokee a Motor Trend SUV of the year contender!

For 2011, Jeep's top-of-the-line trail crawler is built on an all-new platform, a version of the one beneath the Mercedes-Benz M-Class. (The Grand Cherokee version is designed for more extreme off-road use than the Mercedes.) The new SUV has the most polish of any Jeep to date, and retains its off-road chops.

The Grand Cherokee comes with either a new 3.6-liter V-6 or a 5.7-liter V-8, both with a five-speed automatic, and three four-wheel-drive systems to choose from. Selec-Terrain, which competes with Land Rover's Terrain Response, makes off-roading very easy. Push the appropriate button, and you're ready for the dirt. Add the myriad lux options available in the four trim levels, and this vehicle offers perhaps the greatest number of permutations in this year's SUOTY.


There was universal praise for the interior, where testers liked Jeep's materials choices and overall fit and finish. They noted that the cabin was clean, simple, and easy to use, and also looked elegant. Minor gripes included an unusually fat steering wheel rim section and excessive tire noise.

The Jeep Grand Cherokee is the contender forcing competition to search for performance enhancement drugs. Not that it needs it, but best of luck to the Grand Cherokee in this year's SUV of the year contest!

World Jeep Subaru hosting Organ Donation Registry and Blood Drive

 World Jeep Subaru will be hosting an Organ Donation Registry and Blood Drive Event. The New Jersey Sharing Network is a non-profit organ and tissue procurement agency dedicated to raising awareness about organ and tissue donation. Looking to permanently “close the gap” in New Jersey, the NJ Sharing Network is always seeking new members, but finding those members isn’t always easy. We are hosting the event to give people a chance to see the great things this organization is trying to accomplish as well as sign some new members up for the network.

In conjunction with the NJ Sharing Network, the New Jersey Blood Services will be on premises brandishing the big blood bus on our lot. Blood donations will be collected from donors willing to spare some time and a few pints.

At least two of our customers have benefited from the NJ Sharing Network as recipients of organs, and are alive today because of it. These organizations are helping to keep our community healthy; we want to help them to continue to do so. We hope through this event we can get more people involved in helping to “close the gap”. The event will be held October 22nd from 12 to 6 PM, save the date and save a life!
