But perhaps they just haven't had the pleasure of driving on the closed road.

At the Bob Bondurant Racing School in Arizona, lucky drivers (who are willing to pay for the unique services of professional track-racing experts) get the chance to pilot a 707-horsepower Dodge Charger or Challenger in its natural element.

The New York Daily News named the 2016 Jeep Renegade Trailhawk as one of its 10 Best Summer Road Trip Cars, saying:
