Kind of same for me for the most recent call. Had to explain what a "4xe" was and that is not 4x4, but an actual Jeep model.
The first guy knew what was up, but gave me a schedule I have not seen play out or be confirmed by my dealer.
Im from Chicago so maybe thats why, but Jeep Chat told me that Trailhawks are built in Mack.

All WLs are currently being built at the Mack plant, until the Jefferson retool is complete.
The chat agent told you Mack because everything is currently being built there.
So basically mine also could wait for Jefferson retool to start build stage. Cool info, new redesigned jeep in new retooled factory. Sounds like no problems at all. 😂
I mean, not really, that hybrid isnt really saving u gas money if thats the case, 25mpg combined isnt that great.
I wish gas would be cheaper so id go with v8 😅

Grand Cherokee 4xe brings limited benefits - the powertrain lacks polish - 26 mile electric range.
The powertrain hesitation & its abrupt transitions stand out. Flatten the accelerator & there's a pronounced delay before movement. Unable to replenish noticeable EV range in hybrid mode.Base 4xe weighs almost 1000 lbs more than a 4x4 Limited!

The guy above pulls the most negative quote from the most negative review—and one that’s largely contradicted by other reviews. For a more fair picture, see the many reviews and videos linked from https://wljeepforum.com/index.php?threads/4xe-first-drive-articles.1781
(Also, regarding the weight difference, Motor Trend notes: “More than 900 pounds separate the entry-level 4xe and an equivalent Grand Cherokee Limited with four-wheel drive and the V-6. That gap shrinks to around 500 pounds when comparing other 4xe models to their V-8-powered equivalents.”)

No iZEV 🇨🇦 rebate or Employee Price
4xe w/20's + Level 2 charger...not worth $29k more than I paid for an Altitude L

Great, so just because of that you have to keep posting negatively?

That's enough miles to get to work and back with plenty to spare. It would require nightly charging tho. That said, I would much prefer to see it in the 50 to 100 mile range.

That'd add another 500 lbs & $10k
