Those are my main issues as well. I'd be paying extra for stuff I don't want.

It's the same as the local Jeep dealer has a 2 door Rubicon coming in stock but they optioned it out with hard top , cold weather package, technology group ect.. All stuff I don't want. And it's even Gecko green the color my daughter is begging me to get and is similar if not the same color as my Scat Pack Challenger.

But I won't pay the extra money for it. Not just because it's more money then I want to spend but it's because I literally don't want those options.

Same with the 392. I don't want all that expensive interior creature comforts. I just want the dam engine. And at a cheaper price.
I agree with almost everything that you are saying in this thread. It’s the same as those of us who don’t want power windows and locks to be standard features because we just don’t want them. Replace the words leather seats and painted fenders with power windows and locks in your statement and you should agree It just what you don’t want vs what we don’t want. My wife thinks leather seats should be standard on every car.

I seen a few the last time I was home. Usually outside the city, but in affluent areas.
Im in CFL and ive only seen a few 4XE's and no 392's driving around. Only two 392's that I saw at my local dealer dealership.

They would still make a killing selling them. Probably more even by offering it with cloth seats and a lower trim for a cheaper price.

I actually think they purposely didn't make the lower trim an option in 2021 because they knew they wouldn't be able to keep up with the demand during the pandemic and chip shortage.
If I could build a 392 how I want it I would buy one. Not like I matter but I would. I didn’t want leather or the cruise control package with my rubicon but I wanted everything else. If I had an option to add the 392 engine I would have.

I personally still can’t believe that I found the exact build I wanted last year in June ish for my rubicon with how everything was with covid and I had the choice of 6 different colors built that exact way on the dealers lot. I still think it was just weird. Cause non leather and no adaptive cruise but with all other options just seems like a weird build.

We have 3 4xe’s I see in my area pretty consistently. I still have not seen a 392 in the wild. I’m starting to see more and more ram txd’s though.

I just seen the 392 Jeep in my area driving yesterday for the first time. An older woman was driving it. Hydro blue. My daughter hates 4 door Jeeps but she thought it looked good even for a 4 door. I think it was the fact that it sits higher and the hood scoop and wheels added to the look. But man it's just so much money for what it is. Hopefully Jeep listens and throws us all a bone and gives us a more aforable version for 2022. ?

2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon, 2020 Dodge Challenger RT Scat Pack
Of course you do. It justifies the crazy money you just paid. The SRT 392 Challenger people felt the same way back in the day. Then the Hellcats came out and they fainted. And then the 392 Scat Packs came out and they really wanted to die! ?

The bottom line is if your buying a 392 Jeep for exclusivity you bought the wrong vehicle. You'll have your fun in the sun for a little while. Most likely during this pandemic. But I suspect soon there will be cheaper variations of the 392 Jeep. And don't be surprised if a Hellcat version is already in the works. Even if it's for the Gladiator platform.

Trust me I'm coming from the Challenger crew. We all went through this same thing. Always look to the past to predict the future!!
Jeep did this with the JK 10th Anniversary Rubicon. When it came out, all the tweaks they made to it were totally unique for that first year. People were going nuts for the custom hood, the modular steel bumper, the big Rubicon decals on the side and folks were making videos about how it was gonna be rare, only go up in value, and no other OEM Wrangler would ever be quite like it.

Then Jeep turned it into a trim package the following year for the remainder of the JK's production run and immediately nullified what made that Rubicon special.

For 2022 Jeep should offer a stripped down 392 Rubicon option with cloth seats and without all the expensive tech for $60k or less.

How awesome would that be? They would sell a boat load. How many of you would buy one? I'm pretty sure I would!!

Let's hope and pray They do!! Jeep are you listening?
I would trade my 2020 JLUR in for that. Mine has everything in it minus ACC.

The only thing I would like for my stripped down 392 is Alpine Audio and Steel Bumper for looks. Everything else like Leather Seats, LED Lights, etc can take a back seat.
