At long last, events are BACK! And we are on TOP of the world to announce that GO TOPLESS DAY is ON!

That’s right, we will be hosting Jeep Go Topless Day on Sunday, May 21st from 10am-2pm. Bring your family and your (leashed) furry friends for a free, fun-filled day that you won’t soon forget.

If you aren’t familiar with this not-to-be-missed, highly anticipated tradition, you should know that you are in for a total treat! Go Topless Day typically draws over 100 Jeeps of all years and models, a dream sight for anyone who loves all things automotive!

From near and far, the vehicles will roll into beautiful Rhinebeck and head to our property at the corner of Route 9 and 9G that day. And we will celebrate our kinship as Jeep aficionados with good food and fellowship! Note: if free hot dogs aren’t enough to make you want to road-trip to Northern Dutchess County, we will also have prizes to incentivize you!

This will mark the 8th year that Ruge’s has provided this experience as part of a worldwide Jeep Go Topless Day tradition.

“Whether or not you own a Jeep, this event is a great opportunity to gather with old friends (and soon-to-be-friends!) to see an incredible lineup of custom, semi-custom, and conventional Jeeps. Each one is unique, and many of them reflect the incredible creativity and innovation of their owners, who have, in many cases, gone to great lengths to fully customize their vehicles. The event is a lot of fun for people of all ages to experience as they walk around the property that day and take it all in,” said Kristin Ruge Hutchins, President of Ruge’s Automotive.

“Go Topless Day is also a perfect way to celebrate the onset of warmer weather - it’s festive and celebratory on every level. And for many who come from other regions or states, it offers a perfect opportunity to take a ride to our beautiful Hudson Valley to kick off summer fun.”

Go Topless Day will take place at Ruge’s Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, which is located at 6882 US Route 9 in Rhinebeck. The event is free of charge and open to the public.  We look forward to seeing you there!
