Jeep Wrangler: You knew this would be on the list. From its earliest days as a derivative of the original CJ, the Jeep Wrangler has been a standard-bearer for off-road motoring. If Spring Break includes rugged terrains and backroad injunctions for you, the Wrangler's open-air design and removable top offer an immersive experience with the outdoors. At the same time, its four-wheel drive capabilities ensure you can navigate any terrain. From sandy beaches to mountain trails, the Jeep Wrangler is a thrill-seeker's go-to.

Convertibles: Easy call No. 2. What week at the beach is complete without the use of a convertible?

From your favorite convertible Chevrolet Corvettes and Camaros to the cabriolet options that Audi, BMW and Mercedes, you can’t go wrong with any of them. Or, if you are really adventurous, you may want to consider a Porsche Boxster or 911.
