Product Description
Jeep Overland Limited Jogging Stroller Does it require a little bit of motivation to go out for a jog? Maybe it requires some song to get pumped up, say ?Eye of the Tiger?? Or, maybe it's something mellow, something along the lines of a James Taylor. Whatever the musical stylings may be, the Jeep Overland Limited Jogging Stroller can take care of them all. It features the Music on the Move tray which is compatible with CD, MP3, radio, cassette or mini-disc players. It is the perfect stroller for getting the juices going for a jog. Aside from the Music on the Move tray, Jeep's Overland Limited Jogging Stroller has tons of features to provide for a comfortable ride for baby. It features a 5-point safety harness and a safety tether which come in handy because accidents do happen. Shocks help make the ride comfortable for the child and if sleeping provides a calming ride. The weather shield keeps wind and debris from flying in the child's face. Maybe it's classic rock getting the blood going or perhaps it's something soft like Phil Collins to provide a calming influence, either way it's no problem getting what is needed for motivation with the Jeep Overland Limited Jogging Stroller with Music on the Move tray. Hook up the musical player of choice and burn the calories while burning some classic riffs.

I love it! April 25, 2007

This is the greatest stroller I have ever had my hands on, The IPOD adapter was a huge selling point for me, the volume is terrific and it really makes me want to go out and walk or run. Its very easy to push and light weight. It came with an odometer so I know how fast Ive gone, it also has a pump to put air in the tires! I feel like a millionaire taking my 3 month old on a walk in this jogger and she loves it too. an other great selling point is that the seat reclines ALL the way down, very few strollers I've seen do this.
A Comparison with the InStep Safari TT Single Jogging Stroller May 9, 2008

About a year ago, we looked at front swivel wheel jogging strollers. We wanted one with a supportive seat that would allow our son to sit more upright than most jogging strollers allowed. We also wanted one with a child tray. We opted to get the Instep Safari TT Single Stroller (which I think is the same as the Schwinn Safari TT Swivel Stroller) over one of the Jeep Liberty Limited Urban Terrain Strollers. We were able to buy the Instep much cheaper than the Jeep. Also, the Jeep we saw had speakers for a cd player which we had no interest in using. We have just recently purchased a used 2003 Jeep stroller. For our current off-road, non-jogging purposes, this is working out better.
I would like to offer our comparison of the Instep/Schwinn Safari and the Jeep. There seems to be a few choices in Jeep models. Ours is used and I don't know which we have. Therefore, these are just basic guidelines.
We've taken both strollers around a neighborhood with sporadic sidewalks and no curb cutouts and both have handled the mixed/rough terrain well. We've also walked on the university campus where there are small (2') hills and both strollers go up and down them fine.
My main complaints with the Instep, and what I like about the Jeep, are little things. The cupholders are so shallow that bottles of water fall over. The child tray is not removable. When our son falls asleep we have to lift him out over the tray. The sunshade is beyond stupid. We live in Arizona and the Instep shade provides no protection from the sun. It actually curves upwards. We bought a Kiddopotamus sunshade. Although it provides ample sun protection, our son must essentially look out a tube. The Jeep sunshade is a bit better, but not really. It seems bigger and does not curve up and let the sun in as much, but we still use the additional sunshade. I will address the bad Instep brakes later.
The Instep is bigger and the seat for the child is roomier. However, there is more head clearance space under the Jeep Canopy. I wonder if the foot rest on the Jeep will be outgrown faster than the footrest on the Instep.
The seat on the Jeep seems better padded. The one we bought was FILTHY when we got it and it cleaned up easily. I had been certain it would be covered in stains, but it looks brand new. The Instep has a thin seat cover that can be removed for washing. However, it is velcroed in place. When our son sits down, we have to hold the pad in place or it slips and wads up underneath him.
There are reflectors attached all over the Jeep. The Instep has no reflectors that I've ever noticed.
The handle on the Instep is adjustable, so you can make it taller. You can also position it facing backwards and be further back from the stroller. This is probably advantageous for joggers. The Jeep is okay height for me 5'7." My 6' husband has to walk a bit to the side to not kick the stroller when he is walking, but he has to do that with most strollers that don't have adjustable handles.
The back wheels on our Instep are bigger than the rear wheels on the Jeep. That might make a difference for someone who jogs. I haven't jogged with either stroller.
Our Instep has a locking front wheel as does our Jeep. I don't know if all models of each brand lock or not.
The brake system on the Jeep is better. Although they both have foot brakes that interact with the rear wheels, the Instep partially falls into place when you go over bumps. You then get a bump-bump-bump rhythm in the stroller. My husband actually stretched a bungie cord between the handle bar and the foot bar to prevent this. I haven't noticed the Jeep brake falling into place.
I like the cargo basket better on the Jeep because it is bigger and much more accessible. Another advantage of the Jeep is for our son. He loves to push the stroller like he does shopping carts. He grabs the horizontal bar at the back of the stroller and pushes. On the Instep, this is the brake so he sets the brake. On the Jeep, he grabs and pushes with the cargo basket so he does not set the brake. The cargo basket on the Instep is very inconvenient. It's small and it is hard to get stuff in and out. I suspect for someone jogging, they would collide with the Jeep basket but not with the Instep basket.
We've never used the Instep as a jogger, but rather as an off-road stroller. Now that I have used both, I think the Jeep is better for off-road general stroller, but the Instep is probably better for jogging. I still like the cup holders, brakes, and removable tray of the Jeep MUCH better and think the Instep would be a superior stroller if it had those. Although I like the jeep cargo basket for my purpose, I think the Instep cargo basket that doesn't stick back, the handle that folds backwards, and the large rear wheels could possibly make a difference for a jogger.
Very sturdy January 18, 2008

This is a very heavy duty stroller. The only thing my wife doesn't like about it is that the front wheel doesn't pivot. It folds down but is still pretty large. I have to take the back wheels off to fit in the trunk of our Dodge Stratus. The back wheels do pop on and off very easily so that's not a problem. The tires seem to loose air kinda fast but it comes with a pump. Overall I like it lot and it's very hardcore.
Great stroller for the money February 10, 2008

This stroller was very easy to assemble, and looks very good. For Amazon's price with free shipping, it cannot be beat. I had a problem with one tire not inflating properly, and customer service at the manufacturer promptly sent me a new wheel with no hassle.
tough nugget... March 4, 2008

This is a really tough stroller as I use it where I used to go mountain biking. Dirt, mud, berms and low creeks were no match--we had a blast with this stroller. It's pretty heavy though and doesn't exactly fold neatly into a small space. But if you take the wheels off it shouldn't be problem. It's a really good product rivaling others costing hundreds more.
