What is one of the most overlooked features of your Jeep?

Is that just a diesel thing?

I think that's specific to the Selec-Trac xfer case.

Its a 2021 thing. My 2020 does not have offroad plus. My Tazer Mini lets me engage the rear in 2H and both in 4H.

No. Nice feature. Pages 180, 181 in the manual.

The original post about Sirius XM starting at the beginning of the track is great. I hadn't realized this.

Proximity enter - I don't have this, and I miss the old CJ soft doors with the turning handle! But I've a question - when it comes to locking the doors, can you leave the key fob in your pocket or bag and just 'press lock' on the inside of the door and then close the door, or do you need to use the key fob to lock the doors for full security?

How do you use the Replay? Does it stay on or do you activate it after each song?

Thx!

So, when you are in SXM mode (not AM/FM), there is a "Replay" button near the bottom, just left of center. Press that, and it kinda opens up another mode, where you can skip back to the beginning of a song, or even the song before. When you press "Replay" again, it goes back to live music.

It only works for your Favorite stations. And, it only goes back to when you started the car, or switched over to SXM. Frankly, I have no idea how many songs you can go back, though - never experimented.

The nice thing about this is that the radio automatically assumes that when you switch to a favorited station, you want to hear the song being played from the beginning. So, if you go through all of your favorites, you will notice they are all starting at the beginning of a song. But, if you go to, say, channel 40 and the song is at the beginning, then you switch to channel 41, then back to channel 40, that channel 40 song will be live now - not where you left it.

Excellent! Thank you!! I have several favorites set up and that would be cool to be able to replay songs. I like Tom Petty Radio, for example, and alot of his songs are classics.

The little cubby where the Rubi switches would be is the perfect size for my wallet.

And also an appropriate reminder of the $$ you saved!

For me, the fact that the Sirius/XM radio has that "Replay" feature. Yes, it's nice to be able to go back and listen to a song from the beginning, but the absolute BEST part is that, on all of your Favorite stations, the songs automatically start at the beginning when you switch to that station! I can go through all 10 stations, and it's always on the first part of the song.

I've had XM since ~2003 (maybe?), and have listened to the last half of my favorite songs thousands of times. Now, because it's always at the beginning of the song when I switch stations, I'm hearing the beginnings of the songs.

And, unlike many other great features (aux switches, easily removable top/doors, etc.), this is a feature that I appreciate every 3-5 minutes while driving!

No. Freakin. Way.
Mind happily blown.
Reading this was just the icing on my cake today. I got Taco Bell for lunch (my fav)...
I bought another jeep (didnt think that was gonna happen today)... and now THIS bit of listening yumminess???
Today was beautiful, I even got that lovely florida rain storm smell to mix with the fresh cut grass.....
Cheesy post but I'm just full of love today!

My favorite thing is how capable my JLUR is off road even stock. I drove through some stuff this last weekend that just shouldn't be possible.

This! I did some stuff on the Alpine Loop in the San Juans without even spinning a tire that I would have never thought was possible.

Ok, dumb question I’m sure, and yes I’m too lazy to look it up right now, so, how do you “replay” a song? I was aware of the starting at the beginning of the song when you change stations, but not the replay feature. Thanks.

Interesting. This is the page from my 2021 manual.

"Axle Lock (Tru-Lok) Rear Only - If Equipped" is p. 165 in the paper manual and p. 180 in the digital manual for 2021.

For the 4door users. The fact that there is not a stopping point for the rear windows - all the way down baby! I hated riding in friends rides in the back when I cant put my arm out and on the window/door frame. My dogs love this for sure being able to stick their heads out at the perfect level.
