Thanks for asking, champ. Not very good news about the uppers though. How are we supposed to stay dry or keep the mosquitos and small animals away when we want to?
But then the designer talked about the soft uppers on the half doors, so who knows.

The red dash is going to look so stupid if the body color isn't red, or possibly black. I feel for anybody who wants a yellow, green, blue, or gray jeep.
I thought iwould but it isn't exaclty red more like a polished reddish rust and it lokked very good with the yellow

Ideally it means the vehicle will detect the actual distance moved forward by one revolution of the wheel and calculate the speed from that. Real distance can be measured either by using optical sensors aimed at the ground or, more likely, by using vehicle GPS to measure distance travelled and then by counting the wheel revolutions during that segment.

This would be great if done because it means it'll show the speed more accurately even when the tyre diameter is affected by wear and/or tyre pressure.
My God, it really is the future! :surprised::captain:

Nice write up..

I really like the JL; however I’m curious how a Gobi rack will mount to it since they removed the majority of anchor points (bolts) from the windshield corners..:crying:

The standard tire carrier can be adjusted to hold a 35 inch tire. Sweet!!! I thought spending another $1K + on tailgate upgrades would be mandatory for 35s.

I am fairly certain the Power slid top is optional for all trims...right?!?

+1 I am curious to how the zipper less design works on the soft top too
There are videos that show how it works. Basically the soft top lower sections slid on a rail to the top. Looks pretty cool and no Velcro either.

Agree. I hope there are other options when diesel is available.

in that video posted on another thread the jeep design guy said in rubicon you have your choice of red or gray!!! THANK YOU GOD......if that is the truth!!:rock::rock:
I think what he meant by that is it was insinuated with your choice of interior color
