Hello from Algoma District , Canada. Home to some beautiful wilderness, rough roads, and harsh winter weather. We purchased our brand new 2023 hydro blue Sahara 4xe last month to replace our '17 hemi powered RAM 1500 which was killing my wallet at the pumps (especially if used for longer trips). We originally looked at some other offerings out there and as I wanted a PHEV this time around, the 4xe seemed to be the best fit. So flashback, my first vehicle after obtaining a driver's licence back in 1975 was a rebuilt 1947 Willys Jeep CJ2A soft top in military brown. It had a top speed of 50 mph on flat highway with no headwind and as long as my buddies kept their hands inside and not waving around in the air. Although the DNA is there somewhere, comparing these two vehicles is impossible. The technology is light years ahead of those original Jeeps. Still, every time I run into town in the new 4xe, it brings me back to those good ol' days with the top down climbing some sort of impossibly steep hill in low/low or driving through a waist deep creek with our feet suspended above the water line as we explored endless miles of back woods![]()
