something that I don’t see mentioned much at all is the performance of EV’s in cold weather locations, such as Colorado, Wyoming, ND, practically every state north of Georgia. What’s the range reduced to once you have to use some type of heat, defrosters and any other high draining accessories?
Ordered my eco diesel Rubicon on June 4th. Finally showing in production yesterday the 3rd. Its giving me a delivery date of August 28 to here near Atlanta. Much quicker than i anticipated !! Time to go wheelin soon!!
I ordered my 22 Ecodiesel Rubicon Gladiator on June 4, VIN assigned June 6, finally got my scheduled for production notice June 29 but no idea when that will start. But at least there is finally some movement. Probably won’t see this one till October

I felt that there was a significant difference between the 2 and loved the diesel. Im not sure that the new gen has been out long enough to see how the engine is holding up at over 100k. Funny you should mention mountains. My plan is to drive this out west and keep it out there most of...
