The chassis on these Jeeps is very stiff. How stiff? Stiff enough that I can balance the Renegade on three wheels in a specific very deep speed hump at my neighborhood.
3 out of 4 touch the ground

Ah, perhaps the most poignant indicator of a not really off-road capable vehicle.
Meanwhile I'm being made to feel like a troll for calling these these "not real" Jeeps. Lifting a wheel on a speedbump. My oh my I hope the engineers read these forums.

Not a speed bump, it is a slump, it's about two feet deep, maybe three. It looks like a small canal.
The chassis is stiff which in my book is good. Suspension travel and articulation? Obviously not enough for serious off-roading but good enough for me.

Which is it...hump, bump or slump? Hahahaha.
Seriously though, not a thing to brag about in any way shape or form if you're trying to prove any sort of traction, off-pavement ability or that your Jeep is very Jeep-like. It's like saying your top fuel dragster goes nice and slow down the track.

Any off-roading yet with your Latitude 4x4, Prospect62?

Don't think anyone expects the stock Renegade to have the flex of a Wrangler lol.
They weren't made to try to be a Wrangler replacement.

It would seem this analogy is spot on.
