——————————————————————————————————
Joggling with the demands in parenting can keep you away from exercising and staying fit as you spend more time taking care of the little ones. But there is really no reason to stop enjoying a healthy lifestyle through exercise, particularly if you are a jogger mom or dad.
Now, here is a solution to this problem. Balancing the activities and multitasking in parenthood has led to the manufacturing of jogging strollers. But with so many varieties to choose from, even an extensive research on the internet can still lead you to a whole lot of confusion.
With that in mind, and all the glowing comments that the Jeep Adventure Jogging Stroller is equipped with features that particularly suit those who are fitness freaks and are avid runners, I decided to write a full review of the Jeep Adventure.
With features that allow new parents to carry newborns from birth using a wide choice of popular compatible infant car seats from Britax, Graco, Peg Perego and others, and no need for an adapter, it is not surprising to see why the Jeep Adventure Jogging Stroller is so highly rated.
Update >>> The Jeep Adventure has been discontinued and new strollers are not available to buy from major retailers. Kolcraft Sprint X Jogging Stroller is a very close alternative to the Jeep Adventure that I would recommend. Just as the Jeep Adventure, the Kolcraft Sprint X is compatible with a wide range of infant car seats.
I have listed the full list Kolcraft Sprint X matching infant car seats in my reply to a user enquiry which you can find in the comments section below.
The Jeep Adventure is very versatile with a swivel front wheel that turns 360 degrees, maneuvering and cutting through tight city corners for everyday use. The front wheel can be locked forward, increasing the wheel base and making the stroller very stable stroller for jogging and running.
Bring your portable media player along and simply attach it to the inbuilt sound system on the stroller, and you and baby will be entertained while you jog or stroll your neighborhood.
Did I mention the adjustable smart handle on the Jeep Adventure Jogging Stroller? Tall and short parents will have no problem raising or lowering the handlebar to a level that is comfortable for each person while pushing the stroller. No more bending when a tall person is pushing a stroller, or tip toeing to reach the handle for a shorter person.
You can read the rest of my Jeep Adventure Jogging Stroller review below:
Features to Look for in a Versatile Jogging Stroller
Lightweight: Avoid a bulky stroller and instead go for one which is lighter. This will make jogging or running an easier challenge. The Jeep Adventure Jogging Stroller is made of light metal and plastic making it easier to carry while holding your baby in your arms.
Folds easily: Opt for a stroller that has a compact footprint or can be carried in cars so that it is convenient for you to drive to the park for a jog or run with your baby.
Walking and running capabilities: A stroller which allows you to do all activities like walking, jogging and even running is a must have feature. This will make you to keep the front wheels of your stroller flexible or fixed as required.
Extra feature compatibility: In order to meet your lifestyle it is better to go for a stroller which is compatible of extra features like a drink console or a weather shield.
Baby safety features: Getting a stroller which has undergone tested safety features is absolutely important. Baby products are not allowed for sale in the US unless they have passed government mandatory test. But parents must also use the safety features as recommended to avoid putting their children at risk when jogging or running with a stroller. The Adventure is JPMA (Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association) Certified.
All of these above mentioned features are available in the Jeep Adventure Jogging Stroller and therefore, this model of stroller gets a higher point of recommendation than the other found in the market.
Front Wheels- Swivel or Fixed:
Fixed front will jogging strollers are more stable when jogging and running, and track better on straight line. The front wheel of the Jeep Adventure Jogging Stroller can be locked in the forward position to achieve greater stability, and increased wheel base of the Jeep Adventure for more balance on a running trail.
However, with a fixed wheel stroller, when turning at curves, you will slightly raise the front wheel of the stroller, and turn it on the rear wheels. Turning at curves is though easier on the Jeep Adventure as you can change from swivel to fixed wheel simply with a flick as you jog or run with the stroller.
Infant Car Seat Compatibility:
The Jeep Adventure Jogging Stroller comes with the features which support compatibility with car seats and that too without an adaptor. This allows the stroller to be used for babies right from birth, and at about six months when they are able to hold their head straight without support, they can be carried in the seat of the jogging stroller.

It also comes with a multi reclining seat which you can adjust according to your child’s comfort and eyesight.
How much should it costing you?
The list price of the Jeep Adventure Jogging Stroller is just under $250, but shop smartly online, and you will get it at a far cheaper price. I had quick look at Amazon, my favorite online retailer, and at the time of writing this review, the Jeep Adventure was selling at a 37% discount. Add the free shipping offered on Amazon, I you could get yourself a real bargain.
What are included when you buy the Jeep Adventure?

Can you please tell me if the jeep adventure jogging stroller is capatible with graco snug ride click connect 40?? Thanks for your time

– Graco® Safe Seat
– Graco® SnugRide® Infant
– Graco® SnugRide® 30
– Graco® SnugRide® 32
– Graco® SnugRide® 35
Unfortunately, it is not compatible with the SnugRide® Click Connect™ 40. However, apart from the Graco infant car seats listed above, the Jeep Adventure Jogging Stroller can also be used with the following brands and model of infant car seats:
• Baby Trend® Flex-Loc
• Baby Trend® EZ Flex-Loc
• Baby Trend® Latch-Loc
• Britax® Chaperone
• Chicco® KeyFit
• Chicco® KeyFit 30
• Peg Perego® Primo Viaggio

• Safety 1st® Designer® 22
• Safety 1st® onBoard™ 35
• Safety 1st® onBoard™ 35 AIR
If you prefer, or have the SnugRide® Click Connect™ 40, you may consider buying Graco FastAction Fold Jogger Click Connect Stroller. It can be used with all Graco® Click Connect™ infant car seats with its secure and easy to connect one-step attachment.
Is the stroller compatible with the Graco SnugRide Click Connect 30?
Your article just says SnugRide, and I don’t want to assume?
Hi Lesli,
The “Click Connect” technology as you probably know, is an improvement on Graco infant car seats that allows parents to fit these later models of car seats on any Graco Click Connect Stroller, in a single step, with an audible click for assurance that the stroller is securely fitted.
While this feature cannot be used on the Jeep Adventure Jogging stroller, this Jeep stroller has adjustable “universal” strap located on either side of the frame, and this is what is used to secure infant car seats – no need for car seat adapters. Infant car seats are placed rear facing in the seating area of the Jeep Adventure Jogger stroller, with the rear against the front bar for support.
So, you can use the Graco SnugRide Click Connect 30, without the benefit of the “Click Connect”. My preference though would be to go for the Graco FastAction Fold Jogger Click Connect that is designed to work seamlessly with ALL Graco SnugRide Click Connect infant car seats.
Hope you find this helpful.

Jeff-
We really love this stroller. What infant car seat would you recommend that best fits the jeep stroller?
Thanks
Hi Lesli,
My choice may surprise you, but it will be the Chicco Keyfit 30 Infant Car Seat. It is rich in features – like the spring loaded foot rest, thick cushion, and easy installation. It accommodates babies up to 30 pound in weight, and can be purchased in 8 different bright color designs.
Chicco Keyfit 30 Infant Car Seat is compatible with Jeep Adventure Jogging Stroller. Rated 4.5 out of 5 Stars by parents.
Keyfit 30 is however, more expensive than the Graco car seats – at about $189 dollars on Amazon today, with free shipping.The price is about what you would expect to pay for a Britax Chaperone that is also compatible with the Jeep Adventure baby jogger.
The Chicco Keyfit 30, is what I would definitely recommend if you can afford it. It has been tested with the Jeep Adventure, and listed as a compatible car seat. The safety of your child is paramount, so go with a car seat that is on the Jeep Adventure compatibility list.
Hope this helps.

I have the jeep adventure stroller and I can’t find a pump to inflate the tires. The company recommends a hand pump but I can’t find one the. An be maneuvered to fit inside the wheel. I’ve tried a bike pump and I meet resistance when I try inflating it. Any suggestions?
Hi Alison,
The manufacturer recommends using any good bicycle repair kit to fix punctures on Jeep Adventure Jogging strollers. Any good bicycle hand pump with flexible hose attachment can be used to pump a flat tire on the stroller.
I would recommend a hand pump like the one in the picture. It cost about $19 on Amazon. There are more expensive pumps and even cheaper alternatives, but I would not personally buy the low end products as they easily fall apart, or require too much effort to pump up a flat stroller tire. The gap between the valve and the spokes on the stroller wheel is quite narrow on the Jeep Adventure stroller, which is why I recommend a bicycle pump with flexible hose attachment that can be easily fitted onto the valve.
With 4.8 out of 5 Star rating at the time of writing, the Lezyne Sport Drive Pump is an ideal an ideal hand pump for most jogging strollers with air filled tires.
It will work well, pumping up a flat tire on a Jeep Adventure Jogging Stroller.
If however the pump you have used is in good working condition, and you are not getting air into the tire, then I suspect the valve is faulty. If you are good at “DIY”, you can purchase and fit a new tube, or take the stroller to your nearest bicycle repair shop for help.
For just about $25 for two new inner tubes of the Jeep Adventure Jogging Stroller, it may be more cost effective to replace the tubes if the ones on your stroller are worn, and regularly deflating .
It can be purchased with free shipping on Amaozn. The front wheel inner tubes are also available.

Jef

I have listed below the full list of car seats that can be used with Kolcraft Sprint X jogging stroller.

Kolcraft Sprint X Jogging Stroller to be released on Amazon on May 5, 2015 – perfect replacement for the Jeep Adventure Jogging Stroller that is now discontinued. It is compactible with more brands of infant car seats than the Jeep baby jogger, including the Chicco Keyfit 30 Infant Car Seat below..
So is there any Jeep Strollers available anymore???
Hi Julia,
The Jeep Overland and Jeep Liberty strollers are available on Amazon. You may want to take a look at them and see if you like them.
but is there any car seats available?
to match the stroller
Hi Julia,
Jeep Liberty stroller is compatible with a large range of infant car seats. You can read my review of the stroller with a list of matching car seats here. The Jeep Overland however is a fixed front wheel stroller for running and jogging but is not compatible with infant car seats.

Hi. We own the jeep adventure stroller and love the ride and comfort it provides. However not having a tray for our child is a huge inconvience. I’ve searched online and can’t seem to find a hard plastic tray compatible with this stroller. I was just curious if there is any hard plastic tray for baby that would work with this stroller.
Hi Lisa,
I can feel your frustration, but cup/bottle holder is how the stroller organizer is designed on the jeep adventure – not much space to keep snacks and other stuffs for a kid. I doubt if you will find a plastic tray that will fit the jogging stroller. I have searched and I could not find any. You may want to try this Childrens’ Car Seat Buggy Pushchair Lap Tray below.
Hello, I have an Adventure Jeep Jogging Stroller. I am looking to purchase a snack bar for the front. Do you still have that product?
Hi Reine,
I am afraid the Adventure Jeep Jogging Stroller and accessories has been discontinued.
Jeff
Thank you so much for this article. We found references to the Adventure Stroller and saw it was unavailable or out of stock, but did not realize it was discontinued or that there was a solid replacement until we stumbled on your site. Thanks again!!
Hi Kim,
Glad to know you find the information provided about the Jeep Adventure Stroller very useful. It has indeed been discontinued by the manufacturer and replaced with the Kolcraft Sprint X Jogging Stroller.
Jeff
The accompanying Music on the Move®, the New iBaby™ Sound System has stopped working. It appears to me, that my only option is purchasing a second hand replacement model from a resale website. Is that accurate?
Hi LeRaine,
Buying a second hand replacement of the music system would be your best option since the Jeep Adventure jogging stroller has been discontinued.
I hope you are able to find a good replacement.
Jeff
How do you collapse this stroller
Hi Elizabeth,
