So... I recently purchased a temporary vehicle to hold me over to a 2024 Gladiator 4xe that we now know isn't happening. It's a 2022 Nissan Frontier SV that had 30 miles on it... I paid $33,900. It's a 310 horsepower 4x4 with a crew cab, 6' bed with bed protection / power / lighting, power...

Again, the 4xe powertrain and my buyback situation are not related.

My electrical issues in my "lemon" were not a 4xe powertrain issue.

Is there ANY chance that the 2024 Gladiator has the sky one touch roof option?

But... it does regen that energy... that's how hybrids work. Also... the new Toyota Tacoma is coming with a hybrid powertrain, so I'm assuming they've got a reliable system worked out as well.

Thank you for the clarification... now I see where you're confused. If I understand you correctly your assumption is that the 4xe battery completely dies at some point making the 4xe powertrain much less powerful. That's incorrect. When the 4xe battery hits "0%" it's not really 0%. It means...

I really have no idea how anyone can arrive at that conclusion when the 4xe powertrain is years old at this point, and has MUCH more horesepower, torque, and efficiency than anything the Gladiator currently has. If people want to stick with the older ICE's, enjoy them :) For me personally...

Respectfully, are there other forums here we can talk politics? I'm just trying to keep the thread on the topic of 2024 Gladiators. No judgement and much love homies :)

I wonder if the Gladiator will finally get the Sky One Touch roof too.

That's a reasonable consideration, but don't forget that tech will have advanced and prices will have dropped over the next 10 years (when the battery warranty expires) before that's a concern. Additionally, it's not like the battery 100% dies at the 10 year mark. I'd also be willing to wager...

Actually (for example)... according to the Jeep website builder the difference between the 2024 Rubicon 4xe and 2024 Rubicon with V6 & automatic transmission (like what the 4xe has) is currently $6690... or only $2940 if you include the available $3750 tax credit... and that's not taking into...

I just love the fact that I can "top off" at my house every night. It's so convenient.

Obviously the 4xe added hybrid system weight would have an impact, but the non-hybrid turbocharged 2.0L engine is rated at 24 MPG highway according to the US Dept. of Energy. Here's the way I look at it... you have all the benefits of an electric vehicle for most of your daily grind use, and...

It's extremely dependent on each driver's situation. I only drive 7.5 miles each way for my commute (within the all electric range), so my gas engine's RPM's rarely go over zero during the work week. On the weekend though... ;)

I'm currently getting 42 MPG with my Wrangler 4xe and it's powerful and zippy as all get out... MUCH better than the V6 my previous Wrangler had. Based on my usage I estimate that I only need to fill the tank up every 1500ish miles. The 4xe powertrain is going to ROCK in the Gladiator.

You are correct. I'd expect the same situation for the upcoming Gladiator 4xe.

I just called my dealer and they double checked the online ordering systems... Jeep is still only taking orders for 2023 Gladiators. Weird.

That's interesting considering that the Wrangler 4xe is was the top selling plug in hybrid in 2022. It must have a much stronger market elsewhere in the US. https://www.thedrive.com/news/the-jeep-wrangler-4xe-was-americas-best-selling-plug-in-hybrid-in-2022

You're not wrong... but Mopar Insiders gets a lot of stuff right in my experience.
