We drove the Jeep Compass Trailhawk 4×4 with DeLila Miller of Leith Chrysler Jeep in Raleigh. What we found out was that it’s not your average 4-cylinder vehicle. Whether you want to tow a smaller boat, a motorcycle, or just take your jet skis along for the ride to the coast, the Compass has enough torque to tow a full ton of fun. Bonus: it’s got up to 180 horsepower, but that doesn’t mean it’s going to suck your gas tank dry. The 2017 Jeep Compass gets up to 30mpg/highway.
