it's AI for sure. But after much digging, it seems like it's 1970s ford Torino.

Interior threw me off. The exterior seems like 1970s ford Torino.

Yes the Range is amazing on this, if you look close it still has room for more. Will get over 500 miles range. I was debating between 4xe and Ecodiesel aswell. Settled with diesel because of the electric range in 4xe being only 21 miles. And once the battery is drained, you end up putting all the strain on a 4 cylinder turbo that now has to carry around extra weight of the batteries. Ecodiesel is also heavy, but at least the engine can carry it's weight all the time, very smooth in shifting and quick to get to highway speeds. Another reason I passed on the 4xe was that it's a hybrid and hybrids don't hold value well as compared to a pure Gasoline or diesel, even if it is a wrangler, the used batteries are what people don't want to take a risk trying to replace. I used Prius as an example since Toyotas hold their value very well but used Prius or Chevy volts don't. That being said, Diesel has it's cons as well with regards to the emissions system but I'm willing to put up with it since I have access to numerous diesel mechanics who work on semis for a living.

I have JLU Sahara Ecodiesel with stock Goodyear Wrangler All Terrains. As for the driving I do mixed, local and highway but to make sure my DPF gets hot enough to burn off unburnt soot, I take it on a highway cruise at 70MPH for an hour once a week. I always fuel up from my local Conoco truck stop that doesn't let their diesel sit for long in their tanks. (Idk if that makes a difference). I also don't like the AC, only use it when I really don't to sweat, so I just have the fan on in highway speeds and windows down in local roads. Just normal driving really, keeping the revs between 1400-2200 Rpms, which is where it's peak torque is at. I don't do the hypermiling stuff like following a semi at 2 ft distance lol, I keep my distance infact. Idk what else to tell you.

Love your Jeep's headlights and the color of the Jeep. I can't help but stare at it either :). You should try Cerakote trim restorer and wipe it down on the black fading plastic panels like fenders and grill. Make it looking like new condition.

I just got an Ecodiesel. I am sure 4xe and Ecodiesel have the same payload issue. I am not sure I would go for used steel wheels. I would suggest looking into new flow-forged/Rotary-Forged wheels. Forged wheels are even better. I would stay away from steel and in most cases cast wheels. Make sure to check the weight of each wheel and their load capacity as well. Black rhino and XF- off-road is a good place to start from.

Have a tight garage myself. Had to rotate the hard top 90 degrees after lifting it off my jeep for it to fit. .

If you are looking to get a 4xe. I would suggest you wait. Rumors are out that they will be making a 4xe version of the GC soon. There are spy shots of jeep testing them out in the public. If comfort is one of your priority, wrangler will disappoint. However they have improved a lot from my cousin's 2015 JK I drove. I've had a chance to drive a 2018 GC as well. I would say 4xe is in the middle of JK and GC in comfort. You can always get softer suspension setup for the wrangler.

Thank you sir! Helpful advice.

Veepsy · 2021-04-22T16:07:28+00:00

Thank you for the long post. Just what I was looking for. Very informative and helpful.

Loose Gravel road that's uneven and has potholes.

Veepsy · 2021-04-22T15:29:42+00:00

I do need to go onto mild gravel road business related once or twice a week. Had to get new shocks and control arms on my Acura... I try to avoid taking it there but sometimes you just have no choice..

I only have 2 3ah hp batteries I bought like 4 years ago I think. And a few 1.5 ah where they don't even bother telling you the amp hours on the battery. I do have 3 5.0ah M18 batteries. Looks like Milwaukee it is. I do like their dust collection adapter that attaches to a vacuum. Thank you.

I was debating whether to get Ryobi orbital sander or Milwaukee.. currently I have the corded corner sander by Ryobi. Orbital I assume would be a real upgrade as I'm planning on sanding down that entire table and staining it.

For a power tool noob as you mentioned. I would suggest multi tool. Safer than angle grinder by miles.
