Jeep: We'll try anything except making a better vehicle.

So Ford and Jeep have the same motto? Weird.

Trying just enough....

Oh you mean like building a vehicle people can actually buy? Building a vehicle with a diesel that gets 30 mpg, or a plug in hybrid with 20 miles of all electric range? You mean building a vehicle that is best in class at rock crawling?

I have had a bronco reserved for 600+ days now, but if you think the Bronco is beating Jeep at its own game you might be biased. Both have their pros and cons.

I mean I would buy that in a heartbeat.

3. Autonomous driving, This i Just do not get, why would you just let your jeep drive the trails by it's self, Kind of defeats the purpose of off-roading.

One of my favorite trails to hike here in NC is the Art Loeb. A 30 mile one-way hike. Typically this means you have to dedicate an extra 1.5hrs at the beginning and the end of the hike to have a car at the start and finish. It would be nice to hop on the trail, and have the car meet you at the terminus.

putting facial recognition in your car huh

WEF just said we have to get rid of cars. Easy way to do that

Ever seen an unmolested sign in the wilderness??? I think its a rite-of-passage for some peeps to put bullet holes in anything man made in the wilderness. Only a matter to time before these solar panels are riddled with bullet holes...
In the spirit of keeping our national parks natural... I hope none are built in the NPS. To date, all national park campgrounds have: No power or water connections, no showers, no cell antennas, etc. There are zero cell phone antennas in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. Let's hope the same remains true for charging stations....Keep em out.

*edit...looks like i ruffled a few feathers from Jeep owners who are mad their Wrangler was designed in the 1950's...settle down guys, the 392 Wrangler is cool, ok!

its Ford v. Chrysler friendly banter....jokes....just take a breathe

I wouldn't sweat that. I mean, the basic design of the 911 is the same as it was in '64, yet every time there's another 'supercar showdown!' on some car show, Porsche rolls up with their 60 yr old design and obliterates everyone.

I was watching a post apocalyptic movie last night, with the bad guys cruising on their choppers and in armored Brinks trucks, and wondering where they got all that fuel 30 years after the EOTWAWKI. These solar stations and biodiesel would be the only realistic paths for motorized travel in that world once the oil refineries were shut down.

So the Mad Maxs of the future will be thanking Jeep.

EV Bronco is on the way. You will start seeing charge stations at trail heads before too long.

At the trails I've been on, would be surprised to ever see charging stations. I think until range extends, EV 4x4s will be more for pavement dwellers. Which honestly a lot of people buy Broncos/Wranglers for the image not for a trail. EV will work fine for that usage.

Don't you put that evil on me, Ricky Bobby!
Great, now I am going to have to sell the ICE and go get me a KITT-style Jeep.

those solar stations would be looted of their panels within the first week.

Probably, but you'll have a few heavily guarded by people playing the long game. There could be hundreds of thousands of these things at some point too.

Jeep does this really weird thing, where when you order a vehicle...they build it.

Crazy!
