Don't care what all the haters and jeep purists say that is damn capable offroad for any vehicle let alone one built more for on road driving! Stock tires and no aftermarket lift, awesome!! Congrats to the driver great skil!!
Exactly, and that's with street tires. Pretty damn capable. My old 98 XJ Cherokee wouldn't do that stock. Neither would my 02 Liberty. My 12 Liberty might have, but I doubt it. My 78 CJ7 Quadratrac definitely would, but that was a completely different beast.
This is one of those things where driver skill really comes into play. Probably most people would never be able to do this in the same trailhawk. Great job man!
Don't listen to the naysayers, it does take skill to get up an incline such as this especially considering the vehicle that's being driven if far from what most would deem appropriate for this type of terrain. Pretty sure LSD/VLSD Ect…. systems in newer cars are far harder to manipulate up the side of a hill versus something with straight lockers and huge tires which sums up most large crawler builds. Also the damage done to the bottom and where it was done in my opinion was minimal, you can purchase skid plates for the pans and drivetrain easy peasy, if your tub takes a wack then so be it nothing mechanical damaged, add rock sliders also cheap. I think what you've demonstrated here is awesome and reminds me of myself, take something that you are confident enough to drive up the problem and do just that. This vehicle is limited by what it boasts on paper, "find that problem its incapable of doing" however you'll never cap the limits unless there's a competent skilled driver. Took my stock which its nolonger 03 Subaru forester up some thing that had Toyota fj and jeep drivers scratching their heads my last achievement the Wall going over Poughkeepsie gulch. Im now 3.5in Lift custom jeep bumpers off a 2009 jk, some sweet general grabbers for shoes, next is adding diff lock ect….. blah blah. Good job buddy.
Patrick Woodmency having owned both now, while yes this is impressive, and some good and aggressive driving, I can do this in my Rubicon without turning on my lockers. Can’t compare the two vehicles in terms of capability.
Just took my stock Cherokee Trailhawk I’ve had for three days on an off-road trail with numerous rock fields. It is an amazing vehicle and more than capable.
I took my 2019 jeep Cherokee TrailHawk elite out off roading with a 2012 dodge 4x4 pickup truck with a lift and 37s he broke a knuckle on the dodge my little trailhawk has just a few small scratches on the skid plates from the few places it didn’t have quite enough clearance they are extremely capable, my next upgrade will be a suspension lift and some off road tires great video thanks for sharing it!
I have a 2014 "TRAIL HAWK" V-6, and it does very well in the mountains, and surprizes many people! I love it, and it now has 45,000 PLUS miles........NO PROBLEMS!
I got a the V6 TH as well anything i should know about it. I took it in some some mud i got a lil stuck tried working out of it had the wheels turned all the way to the left started hears some clicking as i gave it gas is that normal has me worried. Beginner off-roader asking
Everyone I've ever known to have this model Cherokee, has had nothing but problems. A friend who bought a new one, had 4 trannys replaced in 18 months. Jeep bought it back. Sis in laws tranny went out at 40k miles. Several other people have similar issues plus electronic, brake, emission and cooling problems.
@Earl Rogers this is one Chrysler product that I don't mind having. Wayne Owen - I have a 1998 Cherokee XJ that just turned over 400,000 km (that's almost 250,000 miles) I hope the newer ones run like the old ones. This thing will last you forever and take you just about anywhere (with the right tires)
Very few stock family SUV's can go from the showroom, to doing this. I know there's a lot of questions regarding the reliability of the Cherokee, such as transmission etc but damn. This was impressive.
This is cool! I just bought a '19 Trailhawk (same color too!) and I've been taking it out a little testing what it can handle. I need to find a place like this with rocks and stuff though. I'll I've done so far is bit of mudding.
Watching this Jeep make it up that obstacle was more satisfying than pulling your socks off and scratching that spot right above your ankle at the end of a long day
Got the renegade trailhawk. Added a 2 inch lift and einach springs for a total of 3 inches. Threw some copper at3 4s on it. Quick disconnect sway links. Little offroad badass.
I film my trail guides usually with a Cherokee TH. The KL is impressive off road. The next three videos I publish will hopefully help support your video and everyone couldn’t believe the KL was on these trails!
After watching this video, went straight away to check the Jeep Trailhawk price in my City, completly changed my perception. And yes Driving Skills are majorly at play here, & Vehicle support the driver was excellent, A1
Bravo !! Almost incredible. I'm curious to know what tires the car has, and how the traction has been set. ESP was ON / OFF, the differential was LOCK On or OFF ??? On AUTO mode ???
Nice job, took my wife’s off-road a month ago, wasn’t that bad but did have some nasty rocks and a massive climb, I was very surprised what it could do.
Stumbled onto this video after listening to a buddy text me for about four hours + a 2 hour phone call talking about the 2019 TH I just ordered is “just a Fiat” “not really a Jeep” blah blah blah.... I will now go to bed with that smile back on my face. Epic driving brotha...
I low key wanted it to slip on the step to see how badly damaged the front end would end up... But good driving skills my good sir! I can only imagine what you could do with off road tires!
I agree, I love my jeeps ability to go offroad, but damn it hurts to fukup a beautiful jeep. When high school kids buy these jeeps in 2035 they are going to be stoked :)
@@colomacountry there’s no way.. and I don’t see this possible.. all the thanks underneath will be broken. I drove over a wood lock on the highway (thrown by a truck) and I had to replace the windshield water tank so.. 🤷🏽♀️
@@hiroandzerotwo878 Thats funny. There was a time when it went like this.. "My JEEP is not a SUV, Your SUV is not a JEEP". You won't see a VW, Honda or other car in the same class doing this. But then again, as time goes on, they loose more and more ability. th-cam.com/video/B_KZ10KsXv0/w-d-xo.html
I have a 2019 Wrangler Sahara JLU. My wife a Cherokee 2019 Limited. I love them both too much to put either of them through it. I once did on my older Jeeps. I just love Jeeps, so no, I like knowing I can, but no dents or dings or new tires for me. I think it's awesome watching this, they are great vehicles.
@@MichaelMiller-rg6or Nah, looks like a muscular Kia Sol.......which doesn't mean much, lol. Seriously though, I really like the looks of the Compass .......looks like a mini GC. I'm not a huge fan of the Cherokee from an astetics stand point.
that is only active on the front wheels. This particular model carries an active locking rear diff. That's what gives it the much greater traction pushing. Very impressive for a bone stock Cherokee.

Here is that 1% of Jeep *Cherokee* owners who would do this...
pshhh bullshit. You'd be surprised> I see more of these out there on trails now than tacoma owners.
50% of Wrangler owners would do it.
I wouldn't! But I'm a pansy.
@@garyreed6310 That's true for Wrangler owners, not so much for Cherokee owners.

Darrin Stevens most people couldn't do it in a Rubicon.
The TH comes with a skid plate as standard equipment. It was built to do just this. What do you think that Trail Rated badge stands for?
@ Patrick Woodmency … Yeah there are a long of mountain bikes that say trail rated too..... isn't the case all the time.

Man I used to think these things were “trail rated” for pot holes in the mall parking lot but I have been proved wrong.
That's amazing! Both car and driver were upto mark. Plus Kid relaxing in Jeep and waving to canera to his mother was priceless 😎👍
Great Job sir. Also great Job on representing the Jeep brand so well.👍🏻👍🏻
All I can say is, HOLY SH!T!!! that was some fantastic driving
Takes a lot to impress me , but this was impressive .. It literally didn't even look possible
It will be for sale in 2 months with "gently used, never driven offroad" on the listing.

I was thinking the same thing!

Rental car?
@@Kaspurr84 probably not a trailhawk lol

Anybody can take a Rubicon or a TRD up a hard obstacle. Thats old hat. It takes skill to do this stuff in a crossover.
That was pretty bad ass for a trail hawk never seen anything that intense. And i was worried about that rock at the top as well

The Wrangler Sahara Is My All Time Favourite Model, And Trim.
Oh WOW! That was incredible! I really didn't think you were gonna pull that off...next time, bigger, better tires and air down.
Right, stock rubber usually can go in favor of some A/T tires. And like Drew said, airing down would be of benefit 👍
You missed the whole point of the exercise. This was a off the showroom floor experience.
This is more of a driver's skillset. Nice!
Still shows capability of vehicle
I’m so happy I own one. I haven’t done anything this nuts
Damn thats crazy! Haven't tried anything that severe in mine. Nice job!

Active brake assist at its finest great technology for a stock Jeep to do that it’s pretty impressive
that is only active on the front wheels. This particular model carries an active locking rear diff. That's what gives it the much greater traction pushing. Very impressive for a bone stock Cherokee.
