At Route 18 Autos, giving back to those who serve our country is a tradition we proudly uphold. This year, we are once again teaming up with the incredible VFW Post 133 of East Brunswick to host our annual food drive, helping to stock their pantry and provide essential relief to local veterans and their families.

Route 18 Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram is once again sponsoring the Healthy Kids Running Series in our hometown of East Brunswick, New Jersey! This event is designed for kids to get active, feel accomplished and lay the foundation for a healthy lifestyle. The Healthy Kids Running Series will take place every Sunday for 5 weeks from April 26-May 17 starting at 4:30 pm until 5:30 pm. A Healthy Kids Virtual Running experience is also being offered due to the coronavirus pandemic, so you can participate in this fun event remotely from any location you choose.

 

The alarm clock hits 6 am and the sounds of the classic Sonny & Cher song “I Got You Babe” wake you up. You realize that you’re in the same place you were 27 years ago: a B&B in Punxsutawney PA and cringe that you’re repeating the same day again. That was the experience news anchor Phil Connors, being played once again by the one-and-only Bill Murray, had during the Jeep 2020 Big Game commercial. 

We enjoy giving back to our community, especially during the holiday season. That’s why we decided to contribute one of the prizes to be given away at the APEX Off Road Holiday Toy Drive! The APEX Off Road Holiday Toy Drive will be taking place on Sunday December 22nd from 11 am to 2 pm at the Quaker Steak & Lube, located in the Wick Shopping Plaza at 561 US Route 1 in Edison NJ.

We did this last year and we’re going to do it again this year.

Last year, we raised $6,300 for the Carrier Clinic and hope to give them even more this year!
