Gordinier Group recently returned to Overland Expo Mountain West to create a unique opportunity for attendees to get behind the wheel of both RAM trucks and Jeep vehicles on our purpose-built off-road course. With one of our coaches/product specialists beside them, participants navigated technical terrain while learning proper driving techniques and experiencing the vehicles’ systems and technology in action.
The combination of course design, hands-on driving, expert coaching, and detailed product knowledge turned each drive into more than a demonstration. Guests could feel how the vehicles responded, ask questions in real time, and better understand the engineering behind the capability they were experiencing.
Creating that kind of meaningful interaction requires every element of the program to work together. From designing the terrain and managing vehicle flow to preparing knowledgeable staff who can engage with a knowledgeable enthusiast audience, we managed the details that made the experience safe, authentic, and informative.
More than 30,000 guests experienced Camp Jeep at the Toronto Auto Show, but the real impact went far beyond ride volume, it was about building confidence by showcasing capability and how it’s achieved. That impact did not go unnoticed. Show leadership, including the show manager, personally stopped by to thank the team, recognizing both the scale of the activation and the quality of the experience being delivered throughout the week.
That outcome was driven by Gordinier Group’s team of precision drivers and on-site leadership. Each interaction was intentional, with drivers translating complex vehicle features into clear, relatable insights for a wide range of guests, from first-time riders to long-time owners. Rather than simply demonstrating capability, the team focused on helping guests understand how and why the vehicles perform the way they do. That approach consistently turned curiosity into confidence, with many attendees expressing a new willingness to take their vehicles off-road or move forward with a purchase.
By combining technical expertise with an engaging, guest-first delivery style, Gordinier Group ensured the Camp Jeep experience created lasting impressions and meaningful connections with every rider.
Gordinier Group supported the Camp Jeep activation at the 2025 LA Auto Show with a team of experienced precision drivers and a dedicated track manager, delivering a safe, efficient, and highly engaging experience for attendees throughout the run of show.
Camp Jeep proved to be one of the most prominent attractions on the show floor, drawing steady crowds each day and generating strong demand from open to close. Peak periods saw wait times extend beyond an hour, yet the team maintained consistent throughput and a smooth, well-managed operation. Strong coordination between drivers and leadership ensured a seamless guest experience, even at high volume.
Guest feedback underscored the impact of the activation. Riders left impressed by the capability, comfort, and authenticity of the experience. Reactions consistently highlighted surprise at what the vehicles could do, with several guests noting a newfound confidence in Jeep’s performance and durability.
For several attendees, the ride translated directly into purchase consideration, with some expressing immediate intent to visit a dealership following their experience.
Overall, the activation delivered a high-energy, high-impact brand experience that resonated with guests and reinforced Jeep’s Trail Rated promise, closing out the year on a strong note and building momentum going into 2026.
In the middle of Manhattan’s urban energy, Camp Jeep delivered, once again, a true off-road experience that transported nearly 30,000 guests out of the city and into the wild—without ever leaving Hell’s Kitchen! Set up just outside the Jacob Javits Center, the open-air track gave the activation a distinctive feel, turning heads from passersby and drawing crowds throughout the 10-day event.
Gordinier Group’s precision driver-product specialists were behind the wheel, guiding attendees through a rugged and technical course featuring steep inclines, and articulation challenges—all designed to showcase Jeep’s legendary 4×4 capability. Despite a few bouts of unpredictable spring weather, the team kept rides running smoothly and safely, ensuring the experience never missed a beat.
Guests were especially wowed by the electrified performance of the Wrangler and Grand Cherokee 4xe models. The ability to switch to electric mode mid-course and the surprising smoothness of the suspension over obstacles gave many a new perspective on hybrid and plug-in hybrid technology.
The New York setting amplified the contrast between Jeep’s trail-tested performance and the city’s steel skyline—making Camp Jeep not just a drive, but a statement. Once again, Jeep proved that adventure doesn’t stop at the pavement—and that no one does off-road like Jeep.
