Newpapers in Toledo are reporting that they may be opening a new offroad park just off the interstate over the site of the original Wrangler factory to commemorate its 70th anniversary. Hopefully it pans out!

In January, The Blade delivered an idea that has occurred to a number of Toledoans and to Chrysler's Jeep brand president, Michael Manley.
The idea was to mark the Wrangler milestone by building a four-wheel-drive "playground" on the now-vacant 70-acre site of Chrysler's former Toledo Jeep Assembly Plant on Jeep Parkway in West Toledo.

The writer needs to know his Jeep History:

But while Jeeps may have started rolling off the assembly line of Toledo's former Willys plant in 1941, the first Jeep that ultimately became the Wrangler was born there in 1940.

Dumb ass, Jeeps were born in Butler PA!

But the park sounds like a cool idea.

This must be a Jeep day of ignorance they don’t even know what the name of the street was before it was renamed a couple of years ago to Jeep Parkway……….
