Jordan here, ordered a 6speed Rubicon with you on 4/26. Any inside info on 6 speed production. I don't mind waiting just annoying not knowing whats up at Jeep.
Ordered 4/26, went to D and got my VIN on 5/6
I was told the same thing as others. Can spend up to 30 days in D status. I don't know what I'm hoping for in terms of delivery. If it doesn't come in before summer is over I will be disappointed.
Stuck in D for 3 weeks or so. Mine is Rubi soft top with 6 speed: tow, 8.4 radio and cold weather
I didn't order steel bumper, hard top, bed liner or trail cam, or leather.
I'm currently in D status as far as I know. I've been checking autotrader every day to see if any manuals show up. There are currently 20ish listed but not one with a pic so most likely dealers listing trucks they don't have yet.
All good points, there would definitely be some compromises. Batteries are kept pretty low helping with COG. The battery pack in my volt weighs around 475 lbs and is 16kwh with only 9.8 useable. I would estimate that a similar pack fully unlocked and useable in a Wrangler would possibly...
This is also why I would argue a platform like the Volt is perfect for a Wrangler/Gladiator and exactly the type of vehicle it should have been in the first place. 30 to 40 miles of electric only range. We would all save a fortune on errands and daily commute and we still have a gas engine for...
I am going to have to disagree. I like the idea of plug in jeep, I currently have a volt and would buy the Rivian R1T if it was more affordable. With that being said, American's acceptance of this tech isn't moving that quickly. I would go as far as saying that typical truck and jeep owners are...
I rented a van in France that was a manual with ESS. I had no issues driving in Paris Traffic with it and got use to it in the first 20 miles or so. If it saves a little bit of gas, great.
