This unparalleled off-road capability is due to a variety of features, which we’ll highlight below. Here at Legacy CDJR in Florence, SC, we want to set adventure-seekers up for success. So whether you’re a beginner or an experienced off-roader in need of a refresher, join us as we take a closer look at some of the off-road features of Jeep trucks and SUVs. 85 Years of Off-Road Capability & Versatility Jeep vehicles have been impressing drivers since 1941, that’s eight decades of dependable capability. Originally designed and utilized for World War II, Jeep vehicles continue to live up to the brand’s slogan: Go Anywhere. Do Anything.® Jeep models are made for unforgettable adventures. From water fording to rock crawling to dune bashing to snow wheeling, Jeep models are designed to push boundaries, daring to go as far as your sense of adventure will take you. And when they’re not blazing new trails or driving down a sand dune, Jeep SUVs and trucks deliver exceptional convenience and versatility for everyday life. Go Farther With Jeep Off-Road Features Inclement weather and rugged terrain have met their match, because Jeep vehicles are designed to dominate some of the most unfriendly conditions out there. With Jeep off-road features, you can venture ahead with confidence. These off-road features include: Off-Road Differentials: Your Jeep will come with one of three types of off-road differentials: mechanical, electronic, or brake-assisted. These boost traction by maximizing power delivery to the wheels. Front Sway Bar Disconnect System: With this feature, you can automatically disengage the front sway bar, which allows the front wheels to drop and compress, enhancing articulation. Skid Plates: With high-strength steel plates, you can rest easy knowing important Jeep components are protected. Rock Rails: These available features also serve to protect the exterior of your Jeep. Body-on-Frame Design: The Wrangler features this design, which offers strength, flexibility and durability. In addition, Jeep models offer impressively high ground clearance. For example, the 2026 Jeep Wrangler 392 and Gladiator Rubicon boast 11.1 inches of ground clearance. The Gladiator Mojave goes even further with 11.6 inches of ground clearance. Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator 4x4 systems include the Command-Trac® 4x4 System, Selec-Trac® 4x4 System, and Rock-Trac® 4x4 System, designed to get you through demanding road and trail conditions. Jeep Grand Cherokee 4x4 Systems are called the Quadra-Trac I® 4x4 System, Quadra-Trac II® 4x4 System, and Quadra-Drive® II 4x4 System. And if your Jeep comes with the Selec-Terrain® Traction Management System, you can choose from the following 4x4 drive modes to fit the current driving conditions: Auto, Sport, Rock, Snow, or Mud/Sand. Other features that give your adventures a boost include available 35-inch tires, offered with the 2026 Jeep Wrangler, and 33-inch all-terrain tires, standard on the 2026 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon and Mojave trims. And when it comes to water fording, the Jeep Gladiator boasts 31.5 inches of water fording capability, while the Wrangler boasts 34 inches. And when you see the Jeep Trail Rated® badge, you can feel even more confident that your Jeep truck or SUV is up for the task at hand, knowing that it has aced a variety of intense tests and proved its skill level in traction, water fording, maneuverability, articulation, and ground clearance.

Preparing for Your Next Off-Road Trip We know you’re probably eager to hit the trails as soon as you secure the keys to your new Jeep, so we want to offer a few tips for a positive off-roading experience. No matter where you’re headed, it’s crucial to be prepared. Keep in mind that off-roading comes with potential dangers. Jeep recommends off-roading only at your skill level and never alone. Plus, you should only drive on approved roads or trails. In addition, be sure to bring along items like a first-aid kit, proper clothing, and ample food and water. Whether you’re ready to go all in and out of your comfort zone or prefer to play it safer, here are some of the driving scenarios you may find yourself in: Two-Tracking: This is simple, straightforward off-roading on an unpaved trail. Think of it as entry-level off-roading. Water Fording: You don’t have to go around a puddle or shallow stream. You can plow right through, thanks to Jeep models’ water-friendly designs. Dune Bashing: Expand your off-roading horizons and find your next adventure at the beach or in the desert. Rock Crawling: Again, you don’t have to go around. Jeep models were designed to climb over rocks and other obstacles. Snow Wheeling: When winter arrives, you can put your Jeep to the test in snowy conditions. However, before you head out on any adventure, make sure you are properly informed and equipped to take on these off-roading conditions. As always, safety comes first!

Available comfort features include: Heated front seats Heated steering wheel Heated second-row seats Ventilated front seats Ventilated rear seats 8-way power adjustable driver seat 20-way power adjustable front seats Massaging front seats Can the 2026 Ford F-150 boast the same features?

However, a B&O® Sound System By Bang & Olufsen® is available as is a B&O® Unleashed Sound System by Bang & Olufsen®. But while the F-150 offers an available wireless charging pad, you won’t find a dual charging pad as an option. When it comes to comfort features, the F-150 offers available heated front and rear seats and an available heated steering wheel. But while you can get available ventilated seats for the front, they’re not available for the rear. An eight-way power driver seat is optional on the F-150 XLT, and a 10-way power driver seat and multi-adjustable power front passenger seat are standard on higher F-150 trim levels, but the Ram 1500 goes even further with 20-way power-adjustable front seats in the Tungsten trim level.

Below, we’ll highlight some of the best interior features of the new 2026 Jeep Wrangler, available now at Legacy CDJR in Florence, SC! Cabin Comfort for Every Adventure We’ve already mentioned the 2026 Jeep Wrangler’s heated front seats, which are available in all of the trim levels except the base and come standard in the top three trim levels. The heated seats pair nicely with a heated steering wheel, which keeps the driver’s hands cozy during cold-weather adventures. Who knew an off-road SUV could be so hospitable? The standard cloth low-back bucket seats are stylish enough, but upgrade to the available Nappa leather seats and you might just think you’re driving a luxury SUV. The standard six-way manual adjustable and two-way manual lumbar adjustable driver seat is upgraded to an eight-way power adjustable and four-way power lumbar adjustable driver seat in the highest trim levels. The front passenger can also upgrade from the standard four-way manual adjustable front passenger seat to an available eight-way power adjustable front passenger seat. And when you and your co-pilot need something to hold on to, driver and passenger assist handles come to the rescue. Plus, ambient LED interior lighting and illuminated cupholders add a special touch to nighttime adventures. Advanced Infotainment & Technology Features Uconnect® 5 with a sleek 12.3-inch touchscreen display comes standard, featuring Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, which let you access your phone safely, whether communicating with family and friends, using navigation, or listening to music while you drive. Speaking of music, your 2026 Jeep Wrangler comes with eight standard speakers, but an Alpine® premium audio system with nine speakers, a rear subwoofer, and a 552-watt, 12-channel amplifier is available to boost sound quality. You can also enjoy access to a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot and a SiriusXM® Radio trial subscription for extra entertainment options during your travels. Available Integrated Voice Command, which lets you call someone or answer the phone without using your hands, adds even more convenience. You can also upgrade safety with available driver-assist tech features like Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop, Full-Speed Forward-Collision Warning Plus, and Blind-Spot and Cross-Path Detection. A ParkView® rear back-up camera comes standard. Versatile Cargo Space If you struggle with organization when traveling, the 2026 Wrangler offers plenty of ways to keep your items stowed. Thanks to this SUV’s flexible interior, which features a variety of standard and available storage options, you can adapt the cabin to fit your needs based on the adventure at hand. You can fold down the rear seat to accommodate more adventure gear and other bulky items, while keeping things in place with convenient cargo tie-down loops, which come standard. You can also stow items in the handy full-length floor console, rear-compartment storage-tray, and front seat-back map-pockets. Available features like a freedom panel storage bag, a cargo tub liner by Mopar®, and a power-top quarter-window storage bag can provide even more convenience, and you can add all-weather floor mats by Mopar® to keep the cabin protected from the elements. Two-Door vs. Four-Door Wrangler You won’t have to worry about feeling cramped. The 2026 Jeep Wrangler ensures that you and your passengers have more than enough room, whether you opt for the two-door Jeep Wrangler or the four-door Jeep Wrangler. Offering the same passenger volume (104 cubic feet), both versions differ when it comes to cargo space. The two-door Wrangler gives you 12.9 cubic feet of interior cargo volume, with a maximum interior cargo volume of 31.7 cubic feet, while the four-door Wrangler gives you 31.7 cubic feet of interior cargo volume, with a maximum interior cargo volume of 72.4 cubic feet. Front legroom is the same in both versions, a generous 41.2 inches, and so is front headroom: 42.6 inches. Front hip room (53.9 inches) and front shoulder room (55.80 inches) are the same, too. For rear dimensions, the two-door model gives you 35.7 inches of rear legroom, 41.7 inches of rear headroom, 45 inches of rear hip room, and 57.7 inches of rear shoulder room. Four-door models give you 38.3 inches of rear legroom, 41.7 inches of rear headroom, 56.7 inches of rear hip room, and 55.8 inches of rear shoulder room.

If you're shopping for a new pickup truck or SUV, you'll see models featuring All-Wheel Drive (AWD), Four-Wheel Drive (4WD), or a 4xe system. All three are engineered to maximize tire grip across various terrains and weather conditions. But what does all of this actually mean, and which is best for your lifestyle? ​Let's take a look at each option to help you decide which powertrain is the best fit. Understanding AWD (All-Wheel Drive) All-wheel drive (AWD) continuously distributes power to all four wheels simultaneously, providing consistent traction on the road. It uses sophisticated sensors to monitor wheel power and automatically deliver more power where it is needed. When driving an AWD vehicle, such as the 2026 Dodge Durango, you don't need to manually monitor torque because the system handles it automatically for a smooth, comfortable ride. AWD systems come in two variations: Full-time AWD: Power is constantly applied to all four tires. Part-time AWD: Power is applied to either the front wheels or the rear wheels, but not both at once. This is an excellent option for daily driving, especially if you live in an area that frequently gets rain or snow. Understanding 4WD (Four-Wheel Drive) Like AWD, four-wheel drive (4WD) is designed to deliver torque to all four wheels. The key difference is that you’ll be able to engage or disengage the system manually. This gives you manual control over how much power your tires deploy. 4WD also has full-time and part-time versions: Full-time 4WD: All four wheels apply force continuously. Part-time 4WD: Also known as two-wheel drive (2WD), only two wheels apply force at any given time until the driver engages 4WD. A 4WD system is the best choice for off-roading. When you encounter rough conditions like mud, deep puddles, or bumpy trails in a heavy-duty truck, such as the 2024 Ram 1500, 4WD allows you to optimize your drive. Understanding 4xe (Four-Wheel Electric Drive) The four-wheel electric drive (4xe) system combines an electric drivetrain with a conventional gas engine. Similar to 4WD, the 4xe is capable of off-roading. It also makes long road trips better by allowing you to use both the electric motor and the gas tank. Additionally, the 4xe system offers more flexibility than AWD and 4WD, allowing you to choose the best mode based for current road conditions. For instance, the Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe model provides three distinct driving modes: Electric Mode: Uses only electric power to maximize torque. Hybrid Mode: Combines the turbo engine with the electric motor for efficiency and power. eSave Mode: Preserves the electric battery charge for later use. If you own a Jeep 4xe, you can find the nearest charging station using the vehicle's built-in network. Find Your Perfect Drivetrain at Legacy CDJR Whether you're looking for an SUV to fit the whole family, a new RAM truck, or a new Jeep for your adventures, choosing the right drivetrain is important to make sure you’re getting the power and control you need. Check out our inventory of new CDJR vehicles, then stop in today for a test drive to find the right model and the right drivetrain for you!

The future of off-roading is here, and it’s fully electric. The all-new 2026 Jeep® Recon debuts as Jeep’s first all-electric, Trail-Rated SUV, blending legendary capability with modern EV innovation. If you’re looking for open-air freedom, rugged durability, and zero-emission performance, you’ll want to take a closer look at the Recon. From its instant torque to its removable doors and off-road-ready build, the 2026 Recon promises the kind of trail confidence Jeep is known for, now with the quiet power of an electric drivetrain. And when it finally hits the road, Legacy Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Florence, SC, will be here to help you experience this groundbreaking EV firsthand. Get to know the features, capabilities, and technology that make the 2026 Jeep Recon such a standout. The all-new, all-electric, Trail Rated 2026 Jeep® Recon. All-Electric Powertrain: Performance Without Compromise As Jeep's first and only fully electric SUV, the Recon is engineered to tackle any terrain with zero emissions. It features front and rear electric drive modules (EDMs). These compact, all-in-one units integrate the motor, gearing, and power electronics, providing standard electric four-wheel drive and instant torque delivery to all four wheels. A major advantage the Recon provides over a gasoline engine is the ability to deliver almost all of its 620 lb-ft of torque immediately. Engineers calibrated the throttle mapping for off-road precision, giving you a predictable and exact response whether you’re on rocky terrain or accelerating onto the highway. For serious off-roading, an electronic locking rear differential evenly distributes power to both rear wheels with the flip of a switch. The vehicle is engineered to handle repeated bursts of EV torque off-road, with strengthened half-shafts and CV joints. The 100-kWh, 400-volt battery pack is centrally positioned between the axles and protected by high-strength steel underbody skid plates. Bold, Rugged Design Inspired by Iconic Jeep DNA The 2026 Jeep Recon exterior combines classic Jeep style and modern design in a bold, head-turning package. It keeps the brand’s iconic look—with strong proportions and familiar Jeep elements—while introducing a fresh feel. Up front, the Recon boasts illuminated seven-slot grille rings, U-shaped daytime running lights, and premium LED lighting that give it a sharp, confident look. Large glass panels enhance visibility, and Jeep’s open-air heritage is obvious with a standard dual-pane sunroof or the available Sky One-Touch powertop. It’s also the only fully electric SUV with removable doors and glass panels, all tool-free, thanks to easy e-release handles. Gloss Black accents on the grille, pillars, and trim add a sleek touch, and an available Gloss Black roof completes the look. In the back, Wrangler-inspired LED taillamps and a swing gate with a full-size spare tire give the Recon a rugged, trail-ready finish. The first-to-launch Moab trim turns up the attitude with Gloss Black fascias and flares, available side rock rails, exclusive Jeep badging with topographic details, and an anti-glare hood graphic. The Recon will come in a range of expressive exterior colors, ranging from neutrals like Diamond Black and Bright White to ‘41, an Army-inspired olive green. The 2026 Jeep® Recon interior blends rugged utility with refined, all-electric comfort. Tech-Focused Interior Built for Modern Adventurers The 2026 Jeep Recon interior blends durable materials, smart storage solutions, and modern technology to create a cabin that feels both rugged and refined. Its horizontal dash layout, bold passenger grab handle, and modular accessory rail provide everyday convenience while paying homage to Jeep’s off-road roots. Inside, flexible storage solutions like a two-tier center console, modular door panels, and up to 65.9 cubic feet of cargo space, plus a small front trunk for extra gear, will keep you organized. The Moab trim introduces a new Joshua Tree tan interior inspired by the national park's landscapes, pairing earthy tones with premium finishes. Sustainability is woven throughout the cabin with recycled materials, non-leather Capri surfaces, and durable all-weather mats. A premium Alpine audio system comes standard, with speakers under the seats to maintain strong sound quality—even when you remove the doors. The impressive interior also features advanced cabin technology, including a 26-inch intuitive screen and an all-new standard 12.3-inch driver cluster with customizable options. Release Date, Pricing Expectations, and Reservation Details The highly anticipated 2026 Jeep Recon is set to redefine the all-electric off-road segment. With a starting MSRP of $65,000, this EV aims to be accessible to both adventure enthusiasts and Jeep lovers. Production for the Jeep Recon is scheduled to start in early 2026. The initial market launch will focus on North America, with vehicles first becoming available in the United States and Canada.

When it comes to hard work and heavy hauling, nothing beats a RAM truck. Their legendary capability makes everything from towing a camper to the coast or hauling equipment through Florence, SC, a breeze. And it’s no secret that keeping your RAM in top shape is essential for safe, reliable performance. Routine maintenance doesn’t just help your truck last longer — it ensures you’re getting the full power, torque, and control your RAM was designed to deliver. In this guide, the experts at Legacy CDJR share practical maintenance tips to help you maximize your truck’s towing capability and keep it ready for every job that comes your way. Stay on Schedule: Routine Maintenance for Reliable Towing To keep your RAM truck performing like it should, we recommend the following maintenance schedule: Every 20,000 Miles Inspect universal joints, front suspension, tie rod ends, and brake linings. Replace the air conditioning or cabin air filter. Check front and rear axle fluid levels. Every 30,000 Miles Inspect the transfer case and its fluid. Replace the engine air cleaner filter. Change manual transmission fluid if your truck is used for heavy-duty activities like towing or snow plowing. Every 40,000 Miles Perform all inspections and replacements listed for the 20,000-mile interval. Change the front and rear axle fluid if the truck is used in demanding situations. Every 60,000 Miles Repeat all tasks for both the 20,000 and 30,000-mile intervals. Replace spark plugs, if applicable. Change manual transmission and transfer case fluids under extensive use conditions. Every 100,000 Miles Repeat all checks and replacements as you did at the 20,000-mile interval. Replace spark plugs if they have not been replaced previously. Flush and replace the engine, intercooler, battery, and Motor Generator Unit coolants. Inspect and replace the PCV valve if necessary. Tire Care Tips for Safe and Stable Towing Maintaining correct tire pressure is critical for your towing setup. If your pressure is off, it can lead to dangerous handling, poor sway control, and even blowouts, especially under heavy loads. How to Maintain Correct Tire Pressure: Manufacturer Recommendations: Always check your vehicle and trailer manufacturer's guidelines for their recommended tire pressure. Added Weight: The more weight you're towing (including cargo and water), the higher your tire pressure needs to be. Load Rating: Check the tire sidewall for its maximum weight capacity at a specific PSI. Do not exceed this limit. Environmental Factors: Weather and elevation changes can affect tire pressure, so we recommend re-checking when the weather shifts or you experience significant elevation changes. Underinflating or overloading your tires increases the risk of tire failure and loss of control. By following these recommendations, you can prevent tire issues and make every drive safer. Optimize Performance with Genuine Mopar Parts and Service Choosing MOPAR parts when servicing your vehicle is always a smart decision. MOPAR parts are genuine OEM components designed specifically for your Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, or RAM model, so you can be sure you’re getting a perfect fit and factory-level performance.

In addition, MOPAR parts come with warranty coverage that provides added peace of mind and protection over time.

Here at Legacy CDJR service center, we offer genuine MOPAR parts and MOPAR service coupons.
