It was my first time in a 4XE and I can't decided if I'm impressed or disappointed. I did need to lock the rear locker to make it up some ledges. The hybrid system is not very efficient when they don't give it to you charged and there are no chargers on the island that I saw. I was averaging around 20mpg driving it pretty easy. I did notice that coming down from the mountain for about 10 minutes i was able to engine break and gain about 9% battery which gave me around 16 miles of range on full electric when i got down the mountain. But overall as a hybrid without the plug in it just wasn't very efficient... especially compared to the Ecodiesel.
