How do you all like it? Any options you wish you got, like alpine system or safety group.

while the XR is interesting, not sure I am interested in it.

I do not have that many options. I had the remote start added. I am very happy with the options I have. I did have the Alpine in my JK and did enjoy it. I guess if I were younger, the Alpine radio would be nice.

I have a 2021 Willys manual. The only option I got was the tow pkg. That option is a must have!
Kind of wish I would have gotten pwr windows and locks but I can live without them.
I switched everything over to LED for about $400.00 myself.
I also have a Mopar lift that I will be putting on next summer. im going with 315-70-17 tires that I haven't bought yet. I will also be going to 4.56 gears.

If you can swing whatever the options are to get the Alpine audio I highly recommend it.

Otherwise the 2024 up Willys is a heck of a deal and a great package. It already comes standard with the advanced cruise control and some of the other stuff. When I ordered one it came standard with the tow package and heavy duty electrical with aux switches as well.

Fun ones!
‘24 Willys here. Every major feature selected besides hard top and slush box. Even got half doors. I struggled with the half door proposition since I think they’re way over priced. Never had em before so it’ll be fun to throw them on this week now that it’s cooling down. 50 degree mornings are a bit chilly naked. With all the discounts I snagged mine for 10k under MSRP.

Packages are kind of strange. I wanted all LED lights. To get the tails you had to go with the safety package. So I could save maybe $600 forgoing the safety package. My Jeep is a fun vehicle so didn’t add the hardtop. The soft top, while not the prettiest collapsed, definitely much more functional than prior gens.

Good luck!

I absolutely love driving with my half doors on and the uppers off (they fit in the back). I open the SOT, roll down all the windows, pop out the back windows and flop the back glass up and ride like a king.

If I were to buy a Jeep today it would be the 2 Door Willys with probably only the Convenience group added cause auto climate is a beautiful thing, and the upgraded cluster is nice. The Alpine upgrade price isnt worth it, I dont want the driving nannys that come with the safety group.

The beauty of it is though is you can just shut all the nannies off.

I actually disabled all mine with the tazer.

Id rather not spend $1600 on led lights and bullshit I have to turn off. Spend 1/4 of that on some Oracles instead and not have to deal with the rest.

Well I don't disagree with you but I'm also not going without the Alpine audio...

I was thinking it was $1,100. And I’ve come to appreciate going the factory route even if it’s a bit more (mainly got it for the LEDs). I don’t mind the lane departure stuff since it can come in handy given all the city driving I’m doing. Been doorless the past few months anyhow so only value is the LED lights at this point. But it’s also on the half doors so there is some benefit there.

2022 JL Willys, 3.6L - 8spd
'22 2-dr Willys here. 3.6L/Auto. Found this one at the time it was listed as an incoming stock order. All options shy of half doors (which I later scored). I think it's a great Jeep, and I enjoy the options.
I will say, the drivetrain upgrades now standard on the '24's are pretty awesome!

2024 WILLYS, White, hardtop, saftey and convience groups...no Alpine... bought it from Mark Dodge for around 38k before tax.

I like having blind spot alerts now a days and went with the saftey group, also back up alert so my wife does not smack it up backing into garage.
