MOPAR Dead?

I've never owned a wrong wheel drive (front wheel drive) anything and don't plan on it. Same sentiment for a glorified golf cart...
I hear more and more stories recently about them not getting near the range as claimed ( which in and of itself is still far too short) I have a 70 mile daily ride. If I run out of "juice" I can't have my wife bring me a can and pour it in somewhere so I can hit the key and make it to the gas station.
There's lots of rural cornfields between home and work, not really any gas stations between here and there as it is, let alone charging stations.
Front wheel drive is great for autos. More stabile in icy, snowy or mud as it pulls you through. Now what is driving those wheels is the problem.
