Jeep® Brand Returns to 10th Annual Female-powered Rebelle Rally, Sights Set on Defending Bone Stock and Overall Titles

AUBURN HILLS, Mich., Aug. 28, 2025

• Defending champion team, Strictly Business (#129) of Nena Barlow and Teralin Petereit, returns and sets sights on a fourth overall title in five years
• Team Fun•Duh•Mentals (#101) of Lyn Woodward and Renée Vento team up for their first Rebelle Rally
• Both teams will pilot the industry's only open-air pickup truck, the Jeep® Gladiator

The Rebelle Rally is the longest competitive off-road rally in the United States, covering more than 1,500 miles (2,500 km) of rugged terrain across Nevada and California. The perfect proving ground for its legendary off-road vehicles, the Jeep® brand returns to the competition, supporting two powerhouse teams, one of which is set to defend a title it has won three of the last four years.

"Celebrating 10 years of grit, toughness and tenacity, what an extraordinary milestone for Rebelle Rally founder Emily Miller and her incredible team," said Bob Broderdorf, CEO of the Jeep brand. "The Rebelle Rally is not only the ultimate proving ground for Jeep's legendary durability and capability, but also a powerful showcase of the passionate Jeep 4x4 owners who compete. This competition pushes both the vehicles and their drivers to the limit, embodying the very spirit of the Jeep brand. We're proud to be part of this remarkable journey."

Jeep brand 4x4 vehicles have long been a staple in the Rebelle Rally. Both Jeep brand-supported teams will pilot stock Jeep Gladiator Mojave trucks in this year's competition. Unique in its class, the Jeep Gladiator boasts a combination of strength, speed and versatility that will prove to be beneficial during the strenuous eight-day competition. Jeep 4x4 vehicles have secured seven of nine overall wins and five of eight coveted Bone Stock awards during Rebelle's 10-year span. More than a third of the competitors drive personal Jeep 4x4s.
