The Ram truck was first introduced in 1981 and it was meant to serve as anything from a comfortable family vehicle to a rugged work truck. As years went on, and with numerous awards won along the way, the RAM evolved to fit the ever-changing needs of the modern driver. Today the RAM truck has become a staple family/luxury/work vehicle that continues to impress and evolve. With both the Ram 2500 and Ram 3500 truck models growing in popularity, it’s worth taking a close look into what makes each special.
The toughest decision you will have to make when looking over the new Ram trucks is choosing which one to get, the Ram 2500 or the Ram 3500? Both have their own perks and special features, and one of them is sure to be a perfect fit for your lifestyle. Let’s have a look at both.
The Ram 2500
In an ever-growing trend towards truck refinement, Dodge enters the 2021 luxury truck market in style with its new Ram 2500. This V-8 (HEMI 8-cylinder), eight-speed automatic, 3600 horsepower truck is flashy, tough, and about as top-of-the-line as a truck can get.
The truth is, the difference between the 2500 and 3500 is not huge but it is noticeable. Basically, the Ram 2500 offers more grit and grunt at a lower price. But, both the 2500 and the 3500 come—at base level—with a 6.4-liter, V8 engine and the option for a 6.7-liter turbodiesel engine with 850 pound-feet of torque (this option is only $200 more on the Ram 2500).
Inside the cabin, the 2500’s luxury is revealed. The all-leather seats with grey leather piping are easy to slide into, and they do well to match the feel of the soft surfaces throughout. The real wood accents, made from Black Argento, are a nice touch—as is the soft LED lighting in the door handles, footwells, and lower map pockets.
Between the two trucks, the 2500 comes with a softer suspension, which makes it a better around-town driver. One nice touch the 2500 offers, and the Ram 3500 does not, is the Power Wagon trim level. At this level, the 2500 adds 33-inch tires and an upgraded suspension system that allows it to hit the trails pretty hard.
The luxury truck movement is in full swing and the Ram has done an excellent job at not only keeping up with the market but also taking charge of it. The Ram 2500 is outfitted with all of Dodge’s celebrated performance standards and taken to a new level by using the finest of materials both inside and out.
The Ram 3500
Take what you know of the Ram 2500 and add superior payload and towing capacity and you have the Ram 3500. To be more specific, the 3500 can handle up to around 7,600 pounds in payload, whereas the 2500 tops out around 4,000 pounds. This massive difference alone is enough reason for those who plan on pulling and hauling a lot of weight, or even a little weight often, to go for the Ram 3500.
There are other differences beyond the amount of power between the Ram 3500 and 2500 models. For instance, the 3500 comes with the option for a large turbodiesel engine that offers 1,000 pound-feet of torque (that’s a ton!). This ultra-tough engine allows for a little over 35,000 pounds of towing (that’s enough weight to require a commercial license and will also require dual rear wheels). This is not an option with the Ram 2500.
With all this talk of power, you would think the Ram 3500 would look like a semi-truck. It, actually, does not. It looks quite nice—much like the 2500—with nice leather interior seats, wood trim and ambient light, and extra comfy seating. It’s a nice place to be, inside the cabin of the 3500. The exterior looks just as nice: modern lines and curves but nothing too much to detract from the fact that this is one capable, tough truck.
When it comes down to it, we like both the Ram 2500 and Ram 3500 models the same. They are both superior in their own rights, and depending on what you need—extra towing power or not—either one is a wonderful fit. Come see us at Mount Airy CDJR today and we will help you get into the truck that you need!
The Jeep brand has taken its iconic image to another level by making its SUVs, not only rugged and tough, but also fast and eco-friendly. The modern Jeep is an evolutionary spectacle from which other car manufacturers are struggling to contend with. What makes the Jeep brand so special? At Mount Airy Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram we have all the information you need on all Jeep models.
Let’s begin with the new and impressive Jeep Gladiator. In some ways, the all-new Jeep Gladiator is exactly what it looks like: half-Jeep and half-truck. In other ways, it is way more: a beefy vehicle that’s not afraid to go off-roading or flying down the open road; a midsized pickup that is so advanced there is nothing else out there quite like it; and a family car offering smooth, easy driving. Sounds almost too good to be true, we know, but it isn’t. This newfangled utility vehicle is sure to turn heads and impress even the most knowledgeable car enthusiasts, and this cool truck is a prime example of Jeep pushing the idea of what a vehicle can be and do. The Gladiator is something never been done before.
Even though it’s the brand’s first pickup since 1992, Jeep has not failed to keep up with what the modern consumer wants and needs in a truck. This is important—knowing how the pickup of today is used—because trucks aren’t what they used to be. Whereas before they were these clunky, minimalist vehicles made for either hauling or towing, they are now built to be the all-encompassing vehicle that offers a smooth ride with advanced capabilities to make everyone happy, children and adults alike. It’s also not afraid to hit the road with a quick punch and high acceleration but also operates as a rugged truck. It’s hard to comprehend—a truck that is fast and tough.
The same could be said about the Wrangler itself: once an ultra-rugged machine meant to get dirty, rusty, and beat up, the more modern versions have managed to keep the original toughness, but add in a lot of luxury, new technology, and speed. Jeep has proven in the past they are willing and capable of keeping up with the most modern advances, but with the Gladiator, they actually take the lead in innovation.
This innovative spirit is really what Jeep is all about: take something already proven and making it better. And in this case, Jeep has taken both the Wrangler (their own classic vehicle) and the concept of a midsize pickup to new levels by meshing them together.
E-Wrangler
Since we mentioned the Wrangler (one of our favorite vehicles ever!), let’s look at the all-new electric version. The electric-hybrid Wrangler puts a bold foot forward and sets a standard for plug-in SUVs. The all-new Wrangler 4xe is everything you want in a Wrangler and so much more.
The Wrangler 4xe is more than capable of hitting high speeds and conquering tough terrain. With 470 pound-feet of torque, the 4xe can climb over tough terrain and hit 0-60 miles-per-hour within 6 seconds. So, it’s tough and fast? No—it’s actually way more than that.
The new Wrangler identifies as a 4×4. After all, how could a venerable machine such as the Jeep Wrangler deny its roots: traipsing through rock and dirt, pulling and pushing through mud and sand. But over the last decade or so, the Wrangler has become more comfortable, more family-friendly, but without losing its edge and power. Now add some electric sporty speed and the new Wrangler becomes a triple threat.
The Wrangler 4xe provides 375 horsepower and comes with a 2.0-liter, I4 DOHC direct-injection Turbo PHEV engine that allows for the very best power and capability. There’s also a 16-kWh lithium-ion battery pack, a regenerative brake booster, and an 8-speed automatic transmission constantly providing power and charge to each wheel of the Wrangler. And what’s really great about all this is that the battery pack and electronics are sealed and waterproofed so you can drive in up to 30 inches of water without any interference.
Another perfect example of the Jeep brand’s forward-thinking development, the e-Wrangler is multiple vehicles in one, but without getting so versatile it gets lost in the confusion. Take what works and make it better. That is the Jeep way.

It can be tough parting with your car, especially when there isn’t necessarily anything wrong with it. However, letting your car fall to pieces before looking for another can end up costing you more money. This is why smart car buyers trade their vehicles in at just the right time. If you are not sure when the “time” is for your car, let Mount Airy Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram point you in the right direction.
You know it’s almost time for a new vehicle, but the one you have now still runs and looks decent. Sure it won’t last forever—you know that—but why get rid of it now? The truth is trading in a car that still carries some worth can save you tons of cash on your next car. What’s more, the process of trading in a car for a new one is quite easy and straightforward. Here’s how it works:
Step one is to drive your car to the dealership you plan to work with—Mount Airy Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, of course! Once you are here, one of our sales associates can take care of everything. First, a technician will give the vehicle you want to trade in a test drive and a detailed once-over to assess its value. An offer will be made, and that cash can be applied to the car you hope to buy. If you accept and find yourself a nice car, the deal is concluded by signing over the title and getting you in your new one.
You can trade your car in for cash and take that money to a private seller, but there are two issues with this: 1) it takes more time and paperwork; 2) dealerships tend to give a bigger cash offer if you plan on buying your next one from them—and everything is done right there.
Benefits to Trading-in Your Vehicle
There are plenty of reasons to trade in your car, but here are two of the biggest ones:
1. Everything is done in-house.
Having to go to multiple places—the DMV, a private seller or dealership, etc.—might not seem like a big deal, that is, until you have to do it. Having everything done in one place, and at one time, makes everything easier. Simply drive your trade-in to the dealership and drive your trade-up back home! No paperwork getting lost between the seats, no traffic jams, and no lines at the counter waiting for someone to help you who knows nothing about your situation.
“But what if I end up needing financing for the new car?” Not a problem, we do that too. We can provide financing for you, but if you would rather go with your bank that’s easy too; just get your financing squared away before you bring your old car to us—which can be done online.
2. If you have an existing loan on your trade-in, we can pay it off!
It’s true. We actually come across this situation often, and it’s yet another easy process: we pay off the remaining balance on your car loan and receive the title directly from the lender. If our offer for your trade-in is higher than the loan payoff, you get what’s left and you can apply that to your new purchase.
There is also what’s called being “upside down” in your loan. This is when you owe more on your car than what it is worth. This is not the best situation to be in, but trading it in is still your best bet. In this case, we will discuss your options, but more than likely this is how it will end up: we pay off your loan and add the difference to the balance of the car you want to buy. Again, trading it in and buying your next car at the same place will give you a bigger trade-in value, which then pays off more of your existing loan.
Choose Mount Airy CDJR
There is clearly a good case for trading-in and trading-up, so what are you waiting for—hopefully not your car to fall apart first! The most delicate part of this entire process is understanding when to upgrade your vehicle, and honestly, that’s something only you will know. But if you find your car doesn’t fit your lifestyle as much as it used to, or you find yourself jealously admiring all the new bells and whistles to your friend’s new car, it might be time to value your trade in come see us at Mount Airy Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram. See you soon!
Jeep, one of the most innovated and top-selling vehicle brands in America, finds new ways to impress car drivers every year—and this year is no different. With the advent of Jeep’s 80th anniversary, and the arrival of a brand-new electric vehicle, the Jeep brand is about to bring us another year of impressive automobiles.
Though there are plenty of impressive new things coming from the Jeep brand this year to talk about, such as the inclusion of a new plug-in-hybrid variant that has long been anticipated, we are just as excited about the standard, yearly updates, and the arrival of the 80th anniversary of the company—and the special “80th Edition” special features also available!
Let’s jump right in and see what’s new for the Jeep brand.
New Features and Updates this Year
SUVs:
· 2021 Jeep Cherokee
This year, the Cherokee includes a slew of standard advanced safety feature add-ons, such as Forward Collision Warning with Automatic Emergency Braking; Blind Spot Warning with Rear-Cross Traffic Alert; and Lane Departure Warning with Lane-Keep Assist.
There is also the inclusion of a new trim level, the Latitude Lux, which offers a more affordable version of luxury with premium amenities. In addition, all the Cherokee trim levels receive plenty of upgrades in comfort and performance.
· 2021 Jeep Compass (Cherokee’s little sister)
There are a few changes made to the new Compass: the addition of standard advanced safety features to all Limited trims and the Trailhawk trim level. There will no longer be an option for manual transmission in the lower trims, and there will no longer be an option for the High Altitude model.
· 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee
Possibly due to the focus on the soon-to-come Grand Wagoneer, the Grand Cherokee comes this year with only a handful of feature changes. The Jeep brand’s flagship SUV, the Grand Cherokee will include for 2021 a new Sun and Sound Package that adds a dual-pane sunroof, as well as, a nine-speaker stereo system (for the Limited trim levels only).
· 2021 Jeep Renegade
There are some big upgrades for Jeep’s smallest SUV. Besides the addition of standard advanced safety features across its entire lineup, there will be two new editions to join the lineup: the Jeepster Edition and the Islander Edition. The Jeepster will be the sportier of the two, while the Islander comes with a bit more panache and luxury. The interiors to both are unique and packed with cool upgrades.
· 2021 Jeep Wrangler
Out of all the 2021 Jeep models, the new Wrangler receives the most significant changes—right along with the 2021 Rubicon 392. These bad boys come with a turbocharged, 2.0-liter four-cylinder, 3.6 V-6 engine. (Which can also come with hybrid technology when combined with an automatic transmission.); there’s also a turbo-diesel, 3.0-liter V-6 available with the Wrangler Unlimited trim level. Of course, there are plenty more features and upgrades (including standard advanced safety features) that come with both Wrangler types.
Pickup Truck:
· 2021 Jeep Gladiator
Jeep’s only pickup truck, the Gladiator, comes as a turbo-diesel, 3.0-liter V-6 this year in ALL trim levels this year. Not only that, but every trim level also comes with available full-time four-wheel drive.
Moreover, the 2021 Gladiator Overland comes with an optional forward-facing TrailCam camera that helps when doing some serious off-roading. Throw in the LED headlights and fog lights (to the 2021 Gladiator Sport) and you can have some serious fun with this cool pickup.

Summer Road Trip Playlist: What Your Car Needs Before You Hit the Road
The school year is ending and Summer is approaching, which means it’s time for road trips! Now that places are opening back up and we can actually explore—as opposed to this same time a year ago—it’s extra important to be sure your vehicle is ready for its first real quest in a while.
It’s always a good idea to take precautions with your car as Summer approaches. Extreme heat can do major damage to integral parts of your car without you even knowing it. If these sensitive elements in your vehicle are not checked regularly, you could end up stranded, or even worse, you could end up needing a new vehicle.
At Mount Airy Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, we are all about hitting the road with safety in mind. We always make sure our vehicles are ready before a long drive, and so should you. Here are four ways to make sure your car remains alive and well during those Summer excursions:
· Even if it’s relatively new, have your battery checked. Heat and vibration can cause your battery to wriggle free from its connections; sitting in the sun all day can evaporate battery fluids, and long Summer trips can cause your battery to corrode and negatively affect the vehicle’s performance. Be sure to scrape away any corrosion, and check that all wire connections are properly made.
· Have your coolant flushed. Your vehicle’s coolant fluid keeps the engine from overheating—something VERY important during the Summer months. After long periods of time, the coolant can become contaminated and less effective. It’s a good idea to have this fluid flushed and replaced with fresh coolant that can keep your car running smoothly.
· Check all other important fluids. Your car runs the best when the oil, transmission fluid, power steering fluid, and brake fluid are all topped off. These are relatively easy to check and should be looked at about once a week. If you have trouble finding any of these, contact one of our service members and he or she can tell you exactly what to do.
· Get your air conditioning system checked by a certified professional. Driving without air conditioning in the Summer is uncomfortable, especially on those longer trips: it can cause dreariness and fatigue for the driver, putting you and your passengers at risk. Even if you’re A/C seems to be okay, it’s a great idea to have it checked anyway. You never know when it could run out of fluid or break down. And you do not want to be in the middle of a Summer road trip when this happens.
How We Can Help
If you have any trouble, or if any questions arise, while you complete the four tasks outlined above, please don’t hesitate to contact us. Also, if you find your vehicle is not cooperating, the service department at Mount Airy Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram is a great place to go. Our certified technicians will take the time and effort to make sure your car is running as it should.
Here are only a few of the available services we will be offering this Summer:
· Free estimates from the body shop. This goes for minor scratches and dents, to complete reconstructions. All estimates are free, and if you want your car looking its best while on the road this Summer, we suggest making an appointment soon—appointments fill up fast!
· Complete tire servicing, plus a large variety of tires offered. Need new tires, or just a repair? Either way, Mount Airy’s certified technicians can take care of you. And, if you are unsure of which tires are best for your vehicle, we can help you pick out the make and model that provides the smoothest ride.
· Certified experts can give your vehicle a fast and accurate state inspection. Rather than wait in line for hours to have your vehicle inspected, head to Mount Airy and get it done quickly and efficiently.
· While you wait or shop at Mount Airy Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, enjoy our free WIFI. Always running and free so you don’t have to miss out on work meetings or assignments while your vehicle is having work done.
· Have a crazy schedule? Take advantage of the Early Bird Drop Off and bring your vehicle in even when we are not open. We try to work according to your schedule as much as possible.
Summer is right around the corner and there is a palpable excitement in the air. Take advantage of the beautiful weather and plan yourself a grand road trip by first checking that your car is on the up-and-up.
Summer is gearing up, and so is travel! With restrictions lessening, that itch to get out is finally able to be scratched. But where will you go? The trip is just as important as the destination (sometimes more so), so there is no excuse to travel without modern perks like LED lights streaming throughout your interior, and an array of hands-free capabilities such as sliding doors and high-definition touchscreens in your second row. Might as well throw in an integrated vacuum system and a tri-pane panoramic sunroof. These are only a few of the impressive features of the 2021 Chrysler Pacifica.
The 2021 Chrysler Pacifica is the definitive modern family van. It’s comfortable, powerful, and sporty. Yes, I said sporty. Not a usual descriptor for a minivan. But, the 2021 Chrysler Pacifica isn’t your usual minivan. And this break from the minivan mold is exactly what makes the all-new Pacifica your best option for family road trips.
The Chrysler Pacifica’s cool new design is expertly laid out for optimum comfort. Its long body takes on a shape similar to that of a sporty SUV, only the Pacifica sits lower to the ground. This allows for easy access and plenty of room from the front of the cabin, all the way back to the trunk. The dual-panel moonroof over the second row, and fixed panel moonroof over the third row, provides natural lighting and a better view for the entire family.
Inside the Pacifica’s roomy cabin, the second-row adjustable seats bend forward and backward with Chrysler’s “Easy Tilt.” This makes it so children and adults alike can pile in and out without hassle during those bathroom breaks. There are also built-in sunshades and body-colored heated mirrors…there’s simply too much to list with the Pacifica. Chrysler has always intended for the crossover to serve as a luxury family vehicle—and that is exactly what it has become. With refined features, elegant design, and top-of-the-line technology, the 2021 Chrysler Pacifica is an innovative leader, an outlier among its peers.
The all-new Pacifica not only looks and feels great, but it saves you money as well. The Chrysler Pacifica comes with an optional plug-in hybrid drivetrain, which provides up to 30 miles of electric-only power before the V-6 engine takes over. With just two hours of charge time, you are back on the road. Whether or not you opt for the hybrid version, the Pacifica is sure to give you and your family the smoothest ride possible in a minivan.
Why You and Yours Should Travel in the Chrysler Pacifica
Innovative Safety and Storage. A bonus to the cantilevered seats that easily move and adjust, is that there is extra space for storage. It’s perfect for a small suitcase, a sack of diapers, and even small groceries.
Tons of Latch Anchors. It is so annoying when attempting to install a car seat (or multiple car seats) and there are only a few places made to hold it. Most vehicles, including minivans, usually only have two or three seats equipped to hold a child’s seat, but the 2021 Chrysler Pacifica has up to five seating positions for a car seat, which means you can pretty much fit your child just about anywhere you want. The Pacifica is all about making things better and easier, especially for those driving with multiple passengers.
Easy Cleaning. There is a vacuum cleaner built into the new Pacifica. Yeah, the Honda Odyssey came out with this idea as well, but it’s placed way in the back and is difficult to access. The Pacifica’s Stow & Vac system is placed right in the second row. This is a smart move since the second row is where most traffic comes and goes, especially on road trips. Keeping it clean makes the trip all the better.
Stow & Go Assist Makes Things Easy. Chrysler’s Stow & Go enables all seats in the back to fold down completely into the floor of the van. Gone are the days of having to lift the seats out of the minivan so you can haul furniture. Now, it’s simple. The front seats even move forward automatically while the back ones are being folded in. Then, like magic, the front seats resume to their previous position.
Reasons Why You Need Chrysler Pacifica
- It Comes as a Hybrid. This hybrid works so well you won’t even know when it’s operating from gas or electric power. As the Pacifica cruises down the road, it seamlessly switches to gas once the electric energy has been depleted. And charging it is pretty simple too. Simply plug it in when you aren’t driving, and when you are ready to run to the store, unplug and zoom away. This gives Chrysler a huge edge on the minivan market and saves you tons of money in the process. Fewer trips to the gas station always make for a better driving experience.
- Second Row Adjustable Seats. Sure, just about every modern vehicle has adjustable seats, even in the back. But have you seen any that bend forward when holding a car seat? Probably not, since Chrysler is only one of three other companies to offer this nifty little bonus. Chrysler’s “Easy Tilt” rear bucket seats easily bend forward so children and adults alike can pile in and out without hassle. Imagine, no more stubbed toes or bruised knees when trying to move from the second to the third row. This little benefit is actually quite big.
- Hands-Free Capabilities. What’s one of the most frustrating things about traveling with the kids? You see it all the time: a parent holding a child in one hand, bags of diapers or clothes in the other, fumbling to open the door to the vehicle before everything falls apart. Some car companies have created a back hatch that opens with the push of a button or swipe of a foot. This is nice, but the 2021 Pacifica takes it a step further by introducing self-opening sliding doors. That’s right, just hover your foot under the sliding door, and it magically opens on its own accord—the same goes for the back hatch!
- Equal Comfort Levels Throughout. Go ahead and try to find the most comfortable spot in the 2021 Chrysler Pacifica. As much as you move around, the only thing you’ll find is that each seat is just as plush and roomy and the next one. Typically, in minivans, it’s the third-row seating that causes the most problems. Passengers are squished in the back with tiny seats that are hard, rigid, and just plain uncomfortable. But not in the all-new Pacifica. Now you have plenty of room, plus third-row passengers get their own USB ports and cup holders. Whereas before no one wanted to sit in the very back, now your family and friends will be racing each other for that third row.
- Entertainment For Everyone. Chrysler includes its UCONNECT Theater system in the new Pacifica, and this means fun for everyone inside. There are two touchscreens fully equipped with games, apps, and a Blu-ray/DVD player. And what’s wonderful about UCONNECT is that it allows parents to control what the kids in the back are watching by including a “listen in” feature that, with a push of a button, shows on the front screen whatever is being watched or played in the back. Why doesn’t every vehicle have this?! Just another example of why the 2021 Chrysler Pacifica is the minivan to beat.
- True Luxury Means Authentic Materials. Rather than the faux wood paneling and cheap plastic pieces found in most other minivans, the 2021 Pacifica holds to its luxury roots. Look as long as you like, you won’t find one piece of cheap material. From the thick leather seats to the soft-touch surfaces throughout, everything feels of true substance. This means you have the luxury now, and you will have it years later as well. Doesn’t sound much like a minivan, does it? That’s because the new Pacifica is a minivan in name only. Everything else is all about breaking the mold.

For Jeep Wrangler drivers, new and veteran, Spring is an exciting season. Sure the flowers are blooming and the sun is shining, but what Spring really means is that it’s time to begin deconstructing the Wrangler! Removing the top of your Jeep for the first time this season is sure to be a great feeling and, at Mount Airy Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, we have a few important tips for getting it done quickly and correctly.
Any seasoned Jeep owner will tell you there is nothing like running a Wrangler down the road with the top off—you sitting, at that elevation with that iconic machine, it makes driving in a convertible feel like opening a window. The next thing that seasoned Wrangler driver will tell you is that there are steps to removing the top, but as you practice, you learn little shortcuts, finding your way of doing things. In the mean time, however, start with the basics, the fundamental steps to both hardtop and soft-top removal on your Jeep Wrangler.
Hardtop Removal
Removing your hardtop is a two-person job. (You might be able to do it by yourself but, because of its weight, we suggest phoning a friend or calling a neighbor over.) Rather than the top being constructed as one long piece, it is separated into three individual pieces, all of them pretty heavy. Here are the steps we suggest:
- Remove the eight (two behind the vanity mirrors that pop out and six others that turn inward) latches from inside the cabin, all of which are easy enough to loosen.
- Take off each of the eight latches and store them either in the trunk of the Jeep or in your garage for safekeeping.
- Every Wrangler comes standard with a tool kit located in the glove compartment or in the rear of the vehicle. Access and remove this kit, as all tools will be needed to finish removing the hardtop.
- Behind the driver’s seat, find the windshield wiper fluid line, water hose, and other wires along with them. Next to the wires, line, and hose, there is a red switch. Push the switch to remove the bundle and plug everything into the fitted housing on the same platform.
- Using the tool kit, remove the six or so screws holding the top down (located on the sides of the Jeep—three on each side). Once removed, place in the designated spot (grommets specially made to hold each screw) in the rear of the Wrangler.
- Next is the tough part. You and a friend need to lift the top and walk it off the Jeep. We highly recommend having an elevated space ready to hold the top. The less you have to bend over, the better. And remember, lift with your knees, not your back!
And there you have it. Hardtop removed.
Soft-Top Removal
Removing a soft-top is much easier than a hardtop. This is one you can do alone, or with a friend to make it faster. Here are the basic steps:
- Open the trunk and snap out the plastic tables built into the bottom folds of the rear windshield covering. These truly snap out and should not cause any trouble when removing.
- Locate the column closest to the trunk. Take each side and pop out, and peel back the Velcro.
- Detach both rear side windows and place them securely in the trunk.
- Find the two black latches on the middle of the cabin towards the front. Remove the vanity mirror and pull each latch all the way down. Once both are fully pulled, the soft-top will immediately loosen.
- Next, lift the soft-top off—this would be easier with the help of someone else, but since the top is pretty light, it’s not as needed as with the hardtop. While you are raising the top with your arms, push up, and backward and the entire top should begin to slowly fall back as the track leads it with your guidance.
- Once all the way back, find the latch and connect the top down firmly. Lock it in place and you are finished.
Remember, it may sound a bit complicated, but as you practice you get better. Mount Airy Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram is here to help! There’s something special about tinkering around with your Wrangler, so get that top off and get out on the open road.
“Plug Into More Adventure” is the motto around Jeep these days. The arrival of the much-anticipated Wrangler 4xe comes boldly, addressing key issues head-on with plug-in vehicles—especially those vehicles with the brute force and physique of the Wrangler—such as range anxiety, longevity, and overall power. The Wrangler 4xe is a powerhouse of an SUV, and the most electric Wrangler we’ve ever seen. Jeep has just made history with the all-new Wrangler 4xe Hybrid.
The arrival of a new Wrangler is always exciting. Over the decades the Jeep Wrangler has grown up with us, it has become a part of our lives. With that iconic front grille and headlights, the boxy frame, the endless capabilities, the Wrangler is as American as apple pie, and though the times they are changing, Jeep Wrangler is changing right along with them.
With a new electric-hybrid Wrangler, Jeep is putting a bold foot forward and setting a standard for plug-in SUVs. The all-new Wrangler 4xe is everything you want in a Wrangler and so much more.
Capability
The Wrangler 4xe is more than capable. With 470 pound-feet of torque, the 4xe can climb over tough terrain and hit 0-60 miles per hour within 6 seconds. So, it’s tough and fast? No—it’s way more than that.
First and foremost, the new Wrangler identifies as a 4×4. After all, how could a venerable machine such as the Jeep Wrangler deny its roots: traipsing through rock and dirt, pulling and pushing through mud and sand. But over the last decade or so, the Wrangler has become more comfortable, more family-friendly, but without losing its edge and power. Now add some electric sporty speed and the new Wrangler becomes a triple threat.
The Wrangler 4xe provides 375 horsepower and comes with a 2.0-liter, I4 DOHC direct-injection Turbo PHEV engine that allows for the very best power and capability. There’s also a 16-kWh lithium-ion battery pack, a regenerative brake booster, and an 8-speed automatic transmission constantly providing power and charge to each wheel of the Wrangler. And what’s really great about all this is that the battery pack and electronics are sealed and waterproofed so you can drive in up to 30 inches of water without any interference.
Range Anxiety
Here’s a quick way to quell that range anxiety: the Wrangler 4xe gets 49 mpg, and it has a 370-mile range!
Since there are different modes the Wrangler 4xe can operate under (more on this in a minute), you are able to maintain control no matter the driving conditions. The E-Save driving mode, in particular, allows you to drive for long distances due to the fact it only uses battery power for low-emissions zones like cities or light off-roading. This saves battery power for later and gives you, the driver, the best of both worlds—a powerful, fun drive that saves power and enables you to drive farther.
Here are more driving modes and cool features to the Wrangler 4xe:
- Hybrid Mode.
This is the 4xe’s default mode, as it combines the turbocharged engine’s torque with the electric motors to provide plenty of horsepower and instant torque, but by using the electric power first. This mode saves on fuel but doesn’t lack any power.
- Electric Mode.
To run fully electric, the Wrangler only requires a 1% charge. Under the Electric Mode, and with a full charge, the 4xe can go for 21 miles, producing almost no tailpipe emissions even at highway speeds.
- Regenerative Braking.
This impressive feature actually charges your battery while you decelerate and brake. The Max Regeneration technology accesses the accelerator pedal and commands more aggressive regen at low pedal positions. What exactly does that mean? It means that the vehicle can slow down without pressing the brake pedal, and while the Wrangler is decelerating, the battery is building power for later use. This feature stays on until you turn it off.
- Rechargeable Feature.
It only takes 2 hours to fully recharge the Wrangler 4xe’s battery when using a Level II charger (240-volt), while it takes 12 hours using the Level I charger (120-volt that comes included with your new 4xe). We strongly suggest purchasing a Level II ($500-$700), especially if you plan to utilize the electric feature of the SUV a lot—and why wouldn’t you?
Incentives for Buying the Wrangler 4xe
Did you know that when you get any new Jeep vehicle you are automatically enrolled into what’s called the “Jeep Wave” program? This is a maintenance-free, thirty-day period for every Jeep purchase or lease on 2021 models. It comes with free maintenance and dedicated support anytime (24/7), plus much more—it’s actually cited on the Jeep website as being “the most valuable customer care program in America.”
But there’s more. There are also state incentives to buying electric or hybrid vehicles. For instance, in North Carolina when you buy a hybrid Wrangler 4xe, you can get a tax credit, called “The Plug-in Electric Drive Vehicle Credit,” that offers up to $7,500.
There is also what’s called the “High Occupancy Vehicle Transportation Privilege,” which is a state benefit where qualified plug-in electric vehicles, such as the Jeep Wrangler 4xe, are able to operate in the high-occupancy vehicle lanes, but regardless of the number of occupants.
Check out the Jeep website to find out more about state incentives for buying or leasing the all-new Wrangler 4xe.
Wrangler 4xe Versus Land Rover
There is, and has been, a strong debate about who makes a better 4×4—Wrangler or Rover? And with the emergence of a hybrid Wrangler, we thought it would be a good idea to revisit this famous rivalry to see which is the better SUV.
Beginning with price, the Wrangler 4xe and the Rover Defender Hybrid both come at around $47,000. This is steep, but you have to keep in mind the state incentives you will be getting, as well as, all the cash you will save at the pump.
Looking at the standard Wrangler against the standard Land Rover, there are a lot of important aspects to consider:
- Wrangler has more headroom and front legroom
- The Wrangler has more clearance than the Rover
- Wrangler has thicker brakes and lighter rear wheels
- Both vehicles have similar transmission capabilities
- So far, the Wrangler has gone through more rigorous crash testing (and has produced strong results) than the standard Land Rover.
The biggest differences come by way of physique and interior comfort and design. The Wrangler is a bit more bare-boned than the Rover, but that simplicity is one of the aspects that has made the Wrangler popular. That said, there is plenty of new and impressive technology inside the new Wranglers—hybrid or otherwise—not to mention the plush upgrades you can make with seating and the dexterity of the machine as a whole.
But when it comes to driving, both vehicles are pretty similar; that is if you are on the pavement. Off-roading, we like the Wrangler much better. Its open-air design places passengers in nature with removable doors and windows. The Rover just doesn’t have the capability to transform as the Wranglers do, and that makes a huge difference. Then there’s the raw power of the Wrangler 4xe that is so impressive, each mode providing its own unique area of power and precision, 0-60 in 6 seconds, the list goes on.
Here is a specific comparison of key features to a Standard Wrangler, the Wrangler 4xe hybrid, and the Land Rover Defender, just to get a good look at how well the 4xe stands out:

At Mount Airy Chrysler Dodge, Jeep, Ram we are very excited about the all-new Jeep Wrangler 4xe. A plug-in Wrangler is finally here and it’s more powerful and impressive than we could have imagined. Stop over and test drive one for yourself!
In recent years, there has been a push for car companies to create electric versions of our favorite makes and models. Why go electric? For starters, you can save a ton of money on fuel and maintenance by driving an electric vehicle. On top of that, it looks as though electric vehicles are the future of driving because they are better for the environment, much cheaper on fuel, and require much less maintenance.
Just imagine having only one thing to take care of with your car—keeping it charged. No gas, no grimy oil changes, no multi-speed transmission. Kind of difficult to imagine, isn’t it? But in due time, it will be a reality.
Anytime new technology is introduced, people become wary of it, especially when that technology is to replace something we have grown accustomed to using, like a gas-powered, oil-slugging machine. We don’t like change, even when that change is for the better.
Car manufacturers such as Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram all know change is inevitable, which is why they are all gearing up to engage in the electric-vehicle phenomena. These same car companies know another piece of very important information: though we may be wary of it, once we spend a little time with a newer, safer method of driving, we will embrace the change.
What’s Coming
There is exciting news for some of our favorite car companies. A new wave of electric vehicles is to hit the market soon, and at Mount Airy Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram we have everything you need to know.
One of the most versatile trucks on the market, the Ram pickup, will come as fully electric within the next couple of years. The Ram EV will cost close to $70,000 when it first comes out, experts say, and the truck is sure to come fully prepped with all the newest technological features and updates.
In the same vein, it is just a matter of time before venerable companies like Jeep come out will all-electric vehicles—there is already a hybrid Wrangler that has been growing in popularity. According to Christian Meunier, the company’s global president, they are excited to start on electric and hybrid versions of the classic SUVs, starting with the China-market Jeep Commander. He also mentioned that by 2022, all Jeep models will have either an electric or hybrid version.
Electric Pacifica
The 2021 Chrysler Pacifica is one of our favorite vehicles, and its electric version is just as impressive—maybe even more so. Sure it still has all the loveable features: the Touring editing comes with a built-in garage door opener, as well as, one-touch second-row power windows (with sunshades). There’s also a new Red S Appearance package that includes Rodeo Red Nappa leather upholstery (with Light Diesel Gray stitching and highlights) to dress-up the Pacifica even more.
Here are a few other key features to the Pacifica:
- A black Chrysler badge with a Velvet Red insert
- Black 18-inch alloy wheels
- 20-speaker Harman Kardon audio system
- A three-pane panoramic sunroof
- The UConnect Theater rear-seat entertainment system
- The addition of Advanced SafetyTec Group
But the biggest innovation is the electric option (a similar feature, the plug-in hybrid, has actually been available for some time). Modern innovation has created a better, safer, more responsible way to travel and it’s time to embrace the future of driving.
The Electric Pacifica
The Chrysler Pacifica Plug-In was the first hybrid minivan to enter the North American market, which is pretty groundbreaking. Since it was a plug-in hybrid, the Pacifica had a larger battery than a standard hybrid vehicle and could travel in full EV mode. With the battery positioned where the Stow N’ Go second-row seats were, the Chrysler Pacifica Plug-In almost retained the same level of practicality as its non-hybrid sibling, making the decision to go fully electric an easy one. A refreshed 2021 Chrysler Pacifica is just what we need, especially the new Pinnacle trim with more luxury-oriented features, Uconnect 5 infotainment system, and optional AWD.

It’s official, the 2021 Ram 1500, equipped with the Advanced Safety Group, has earned the Top Safety Pick rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The all-new Ram is the first and only pickup truck to win the prestigious award this year, but this comes as no surprise to truck lovers who have been rambling on about the Ram for decades.
This is not the first time the Ram 1500 has won the IIHS Top Safety Pick. It won last year as well, and it was granted the highest possible ratings in all six of the IIHS’s crash tests. Moreover, the IIHS has recognized the Ram 1500’s highly-effective Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) technology as one of the best in the business. The new Ram truck is as tough as it is safe, and that’s saying a lot.
What makes the 2021 Ram 1500 so dang special? Among other things, its 100 available safety and security features are what has piqued the attention of truck enthusiasts and safety regulatory specialists alike. According to Mike Koval Jr., Ram’s Chief Executive Officer, “A Top Safety Pick for the Ram 1500 solidifies our long-standing commitment to our customers through advanced technology and engineering expertise.” He also mentions that “This validation from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety builds consumer confidence in our trucks and the Ram brand.”
The IIHS evaluates its vehicles rigorously by taking them through six crashworthiness tests, which include three different types of frontal crashes. Other tests are also conducted, which test the consistency of the side panels, rear panels, and there is a rollover test as well. In each and every one of these run-throughs, the 2021 Ram 1500 pickup earned the highest possible scores!
2021 Ram 1500’s Best Safety Features
The Ram 1500 has always been noted for its superior safety features, and over the years these features have only become more refined. As we become more advanced, so do our vehicles, which means it’s important that the Ram pickup keep up with the times. For instance, the IIHS has recently required—for those vehicle makers who wish to dawn the moniker of “Top Safety Pick”—Pedestrian Automatic Emergency Braking, which the Ram 1500 has had as an operational safety feature for years.
In order for the Ram’s Pedestrian Automatic Emergency Braking system to work properly, and most effectively, the range of the safety system’s radar technology has been expanded so that it can also identify pedestrians. What’s more, the Ram’s radar sensors, in combination with camera technology, will help determine if a collision with another vehicle appears unavoidable, and the system will deploy the brakes to help reduce the severity of the impact. Your Ram truck thinks along with you—and sometimes ahead of you—to keep you safe.
Pedestrian Automatic Emergency Braking is part of the Ram 1500’s available Advanced Safety Group package, a highly impressive group of systems. This group includes Lane Departure Warning-Plus; Rear Cross Path detection; Blind-spot Monitoring with trailer coverage and Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop; and Go and Hold.
Because the Automatic Emergency Braking has become so important, in terms of safety, and since it has earned the highest possible rating in IIHS testing, Ram has made it standard equipment on Laramie, Rebel, Longhorn, Limited Longhorn, and Limited trim levels. AEB is also available in the Tradesman and Bighorn trims that have the Level 1 Equipment Group package.
Safety is a forefront idea in the Ram. It seems that everything the truck can do revolves around keeping you, and those with you, safe. Why would you want to drive anything else?
Why We Love the All-New Ram 1500
At Mount Airy Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, we have always been big fans of Ram trucks because they, for some time now, have been the benchmark for what a truck can be. Ram was the first to offer high-level durability, technology, performance, efficiency, performance, and safety features never before offered in an American pickup. And they continue to do the same today. Just try and not get impressed with these specs:
· 1,075 lb.-ft. of torque with Cummins Turbo Diesel
· Towing capacity of 37,100 lbs. (in the Ram 3500)
· 1,000 lb.-ft of torque with Cummins Turbo Diesel
· Payload of 7,680 lbs. (in the Ram 3500)
· Most interior space with Ram Mega Cab
· Most capable full-size off-road pickup
· Most awarded light-duty truck in America
· Highest owner loyalty of any half-ton pickup
And if that’s not enough to get you excited, here are a couple more specific reasons we love the Ram pickup:
· The 2021 Ram 1500 tows up to 2,300 pounds of payload, an impressive amount, and it does so with ease.
· The Ram 1500 comes with the eTorque hybrid system that provides much improved fuel efficiency in both Ram configurations: the standard V-6 and the V-8.
· Combine the eTorque hybrid system and the 2,300 pounds of payload, and the Ram 1500 is easily the most powerful half-ton pickup—with 480 pounds-feet of torque and 33 miles-per-gallon (that’s up to 1,000 miles of range on one, single tank of fuel!).
· There is also the Uconnect 4C that works with a 12-inch touchscreen (which, impressively, includes split-screen capability, SiriusXM with 360L, 360-degree camera shots.
· One feature, offered in the 2021 Ram 1500 TRX, we know will quickly become everyone’s favorite is the Know & Go app. This easy app provides clear instructions and explanations on key features of the vehicle. This immersive experience guides the owner through undiscovered features, provides overviews on basic and complicated functionalities, “How-To” videos, and so much more.
Active safety and security systems, adaptive cruise control, Forward Collision Warning, Blind-spot Monitoring, Ready Alert Braking—the list goes on and on. The Ram, no matter the trim level, is packed full of high-tech and highly-efficient ingredients, making it our favorite truck.
The Ram’s Success
A big reason for the success of the Ram truck is its adaptive nature—the Ram is so much more than just a truck, it is a system that makes your driving experience so much more than a trip from one place to another.
The 2021 Ram 1500 makes big moves in way of hauling and towing. Its powerful engine can handle heavy-duty loads with ease and a smoothness that you’ll find is just not offered in other comparable trucks—namely, the Chevy Silverado or the Ford F150. Most other trucks are not powered by a revolutionary eTorque, hybrid engine that combines fuel and electricity. And, what keeps the Ram from swaying or vibrating while hauling or towing big loads is its high-strength steel frame. This sturdy skeleton offers up to 12,750 pounds of towing and 2,300 pounds of payload. For those drivers looking to haul on the regular, this is your truck. The 2021 Ram’s rugged luxury lets you get hard work done with style and comfort.
So how do you get one of America’s number one selling, top-of-the-line trucks for under for the best price possible? Easy. Come in to Mount Airy Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram and we’ll have you driving out in the brand-new Ram of your dreams.
