"Texas is a tremendously important SUV market and we have proven that winning TAWA awards increases showroom traffic and increases sales", said Mike Manley, Jeep's president and CEO in a press statement. "Through September of this year, Jeep brand sales are up 20 percent nationally, and nearly double that in Texas."
