Article: 2022 Wrangler Xtreme Recon Would Beat The 2021 Bronco With A Lift And Bigger Tires

[AP_2004]

I get that people think this package will be expensive. And you may very well be correct.

But the fact remains that the Sasquatch package offers much of the same content and costs $2.5k. Jeep will have to contend with that reality, especially since the Bronco is exciting and new.

I think the Sasquatch package is a $2500 add on for the Bronco Badlands model only, and then $5000 for all other models.

I have some news you’re not going to like, then.

Oh WTF. Come on Jeep.

I bet some crotchety old marketing exec came up with that one. I can just see it now... all the yes men gathered around his desk, telling him how brilliant he is. "Spell it with an X? That's brilliant sir!"

It’ll be interesting to see if they really upgrade the 392 to 4.56

Anyone else remember the S10 Xtreme from the early 2000s?

When I see the word Xtreme all I can think of is this funny-ass show:

^^^^ this ^^^^
The only thing that could make this worse is if they spelled it “Xtreme”

Come on Jeep... you don’t have any creative people working there? Give it a cool name, like “Sasquatch Edition” At least Ford put some creativity into it.

From a TV Ad my Jeep is being used in for custom plates Not my plates though.

That's where using the name XTreme belongs, in the past...

Ford renewed their Splash trademark not too long ago, so I guess we have the Maverick Splash to look forward to? Maybe they'll bring back the flare sides.

In the mid 90s through mid 00s everything was “Xtreme”. Even deodorant was marketed that way. Then there were X games, X box, Etc. All marketed to Gen X. There was even a Wrangler X. That marketing didn’t work on me then and It wont today.

In that case, I have a Sahara X-cream

Tip-of-the-hat to your wheel choice, sir

Is Ford not 'appropriating the Sasquatch culture' with the name of their package?

Kind of bummed out about this. I am ready to order right now and I would LOVE to check 35” tires, 4.88 gears and a small lift on the order form. But I want a 2 door and it doesnt sound like this package will be avail on the 2 doors. I was soooo close to getting my dream jeep right from the factory. So close.

 

[Nickp01]

It’s a step in the right direction but one of the best parts of Sasquatch is that it’s available on every trim. An “Xtreme Recon” package that added lockers, gears, lift, and 35’s to any Wrangler would be way cooler.

This is heading down a dangerous path...

Thank you! I love them.

They are the Quadratec CJ Retro alloy wheels, with custom-made "vintage" Jeep center cap decals.
