Even Jeep designers are good people. Can't do that with a unibody gas efficient vehicle.

I saw this is Mr. Gilles’s Instagram and was so impressed by his bravery. I’ve long respected him for his work, but I’ll always respect him for his courage. Even if he doesn’t want to be called a hero, his actions were heroic. You rock, Ralph Gilles.

Real steel bumpers are useful!

He may not say he's a hero...but to me he is

The capability to push/pull things with a vehicle in various situations is sometimes underrated. I've done it many times with my Jeeps. Not in a life and death situation like this was though - credit to the design chief for jumping into action!

Netflix has a great series called “Abstract, the Art of Design” and one of the episodes is about this Guy, and the design process at FCA. Definitely worth watching.

Just what I'd expect from Mr. Gilles. One of the many reason I bought another Rubi is because of its capabilities.
