Highlights
Outing Highlights
Compact, lifted Wrangler with trail capability
A two‑door Wrangler TJ X with a 3‑inch lift and 33‑inch tires gives Bumble the clearance and agility to tackle tighter roads and informal off‑road lines while carrying a driver and up to three passengers.
Automatic simplicity for focused exploration
With a six‑cylinder automatic transmission, Bumble lets drivers concentrate on route‑finding and scenery rather than shifting, making it well suited to short‑day rentals and exploratory runs out of Salida.
Pet‑friendly, easy to load and go
Part of Rocky Mountain Jeep Rentals’ pet‑friendly fleet, Bumble allows travelers to bring their dogs along for day or multi‑day outings, keeping adventurous families and their pets together on the road.

Rentals are organized as day or multi‑day bookings from Rocky Mountain Jeep Rentals in Salida, making for flexible short excursions or overnight stints with the vehicle kept on site for the length of the rental.
