Maybe you are right. Thank you, just want to make sure they understand that I have a lot of real word towing experience (including my experience towing with my Gladiator)not just internet research.
? obviously Kstine doesn’t know me or my experience.
I’ve spent 20 years towing with diesel (including Military trucks) and gas trucks up to 14,000lbs. I’ve towed 6500lbs with the Max Tow, properly weighted car trailer with 1995 YJ, no trailer brakes, no WD, no anti sway (I don’t recommend...
Sport S Max Tow 8 speed automatic 3.6L gas motor. You can get many more options now (limited slip, painted fenders, LED package, top line stereo, safety package with adaptive speed control) plus the standard Max Tow Sport S towing of 7650lbs 750 tongue weight, and payload 1550lbs.
Same wider...
Just a quick update on battery tech.
The Solid state battery (sodium glass battery) will be here in 3-5 years.
In the meantime Tesla has kept secret until recently their switch to the 4680 Panasonic battery platform in 15-24 months... or less time (as early as Q4 2021) as Tesla likes to put...

They hit our hospital parking lots and love 4 runners in Nashville. One of my friends has a 4 runner and the catalytic converter has been stolen three times in 1 year.
Just purchase the right Mud Tire that will last longer than 15,000 miles before they have the whole truck shaking. My Rubicon JKUHR came with BFG MT’s they. Sucked! ?
Commercial businesses like hotels office buildings Industrial facilities, steel plants (they use a lot of power solar would supply enough for lights and controls) auto manufacturing facilities, the amazons the FedEx’s, USPS, the UPS’s, autozone warehouse, city courthouses... what I am saying is...
I’m seeing a bunch of PV Cell installs on roof top commercial buildings in cities, manufacturing buildings and storage facilities. It is not all just ground installations.
So, there are two sides to this story for our grid capability.
1- renewable electrical supply to the grid
2- reduction in...
From Shadows Papa “You think if the Na batteries do actually get promised 1K+ mi range that big oil won't be raging and get things changed, you're wrong.”
I stated above the top oil companies have invested billions in renewable Energy. They are not trying to kill renewable energy, they are...
OP said “Anyone else face the challenge of wanting "everything" for their Jeep?”
Yes! Especially a full rack to work around a soft top.
Finally this front hoop is available for a full length roof rack and it has an available catwalk.
I want to combine this with the full size truck...
I agree with windmill use for power, inefficient, ugly and they can’t recycle the old props.
That Annapolis solar field is in a field that is a capped landfill that can’t be used for anything else.
PV Cells and new Tech Batteries will be 90+ % recyclable.
Nuclear power waste is about 90%...
Ok Shadows Papa, hang onto that old way of thinking of yours. Comparing Alaska to California (or current offerings in Iowa) for charging stations is ludicrous.
Have you ever heard of supply and demand?
Laughing at plug ins in Alaska... “oh wait that’s for engine heaters.” ahh yes we get it...
Well to each their own, I like the rims. I like a truck to look a bit stick but have it’s own unique look, my look.
I’ll lift the JT and purchase these wheels and add larger tires when these stock tires wear out. The JT will look almost stock off by itself to the untrained eye, but be more...
The 4xe is just a test of the platform... YES, is it to interest the Greenies in a purchase they normally would not make... YES
Is it an option for the techies that love new technology... ahhh, Maybe but it’s really not that techy... yet. Is it for the commuter that has a less than 50 mile drive...
I have never gone this long owning a Jeep without lifting and putting new rims and tires on it. Actually that is usually the first thing I do when I buy any vehicle for myself. I can do it, but I just love driving it the way it is now, stock on 245x75x17s.. I have 37,000 miles in these puny...
