After getting your JL, what option do you regret not getting?

[Rahneld]

Definitely the hood lock. Oh wait, IT'S NOT AVAILABLE, STILL!

I actually regret adding the cold weather package. It would be ok if it had memory switches. They turn on automatically anytime the temp is below 40°. It gets annoying having to make 5 button presses before I drive:
auto start/stop x1
heated wheel x1
heated seats x3

You can turn that feature OFF.

You can go into the setting and turn the auto on at start up off. I set mine to only come on automatically with the remote start.

Remote Start. I hate having to go out to a cold vehicle in the winter.

I have remote start and have not used it yet. My JL heats up unbelievably fast. Takes literally a couple of minutes to warm up and have heat. I think the heated seats and steering wheel heat even quicker and they get really warm. The heated steering wheel is one option I was not expecting to like so much. I absolutely love it after trying it. It's one of those options you don't miss until you try it.

This gets me thinking. I recently saw a picture of where I live many years ago, back when vehicles were transitioning from manual crank start to electric: something we take for granted today.

Can you imagine in the future how people will complain that you actually have to press a button, separated from the vehicle no less on a fob to get it going?

"You mean the vehicle didn't ask you, knowing your routine, if it wants you to have it start and warm itself up?"

I'm not finding a way to change it. Mine is a M/T so there's no remote start. I don't even see Auto-On Comfort listed in my settings.

I think I saw in another thread that the Auto on comfort settings are missing from the menu when you have a manual transmission.

I read that too. I think it said to swipe the screen to see those options??? Not sure though.

It doesn't count as a regret because it was not available when I bought my 2018, so I am assuming it's on 2019 or 2020 as an option.

So for any of you new buyers, get the option below. No regrets

The rubicon option

 

[walkerkm]

Ordered a Rubicon with the following: leather, led, cold weather, proximity, tow, body color fenders and top, 3.6, 8.4 nav. Only thing additional I wanted was the steel front bumper...but I can get one later I guess. Just waiting for it to come in-hopefully it will be here Friday.

Only ones equipped with automatic transmissions.

Manual transmission owners do not get that menu option.

Jeep also has no intention of fixing the software issue...

We are not currently aware of any plans to add the On/Off option for those vehicles with manual transmissions.
