All terrain stroller

Hi! FTM -  Looking for your suggestions (or dislikes) on an all terrain stroller. Overwhelmed by the amount of goods available out there! Doing some internet research first, and then have to travel a few hours away to do some shopping.
 

We live on a dirt road, and have rough trails for walking around the house so hoping for something that would work well with that terrain, but also somewhat easy to pop in the back of the jeep and pop out for walks in town.

 TIA for your help!!

How much are you looking to spend? BOB revolution SE is on amazon.com for $313. Folds up fairly small, shouldn't be a problem in a jeep. Love ours :)

Not sure where you live, but BOBs are often on craigslist for sale.  If you are not wanting to spend too much you can find them for under $200 and almost new.   But the amazon price is very good.

We have a bob and love love love it for the dirt trails around our house.....I wouldn't say it's a snap to pop in and out of the trunk....it's kind of a beast.  We also had a snap n go that we used for quick trips and use the bob for walks and longer trips to park, zoo, etc

If you aren't doing any running, I really like my Baby Jogger City Elite. It's a nice smooth ride and has the great one hand fold that is really useful. On the other hand, this is not a great stroller to say, take to the mall. It's a bit big to maneuver around between racks so I have a different stroller for those types of outings.

The BOB is great but if you aren't jogging you could also look into Mountain Buggy, Bumbleride Indie, and Valco Tri Mode.

We moved recently but used to live in the boonies and behind our house was all dirt trails and hills. We didn't have the money for a BOB so I bought the jeep overland stroller. The front wheel is fixed but isn't that big of a deal. It is a great stroller and I lost some baby weight on those hills!

We have the Jeep Urban Terrain and have been happy with it.  It's a nice stroller for the price ($150).
