Not complaining, actually like it better and still has the red stitching, just curious why the different?

Did you order one of the alternate leather options?

The old Rubicon is now used on the 392. I expected the Rubicon on my 21 JLR but got the grill…like this…I was a bit disappointed as well.

That's what you get with the Perforated or Embroidered leather. It's not Rubicon specific so no Rubicon specific stitching. Personally, I like it better too. Especially since I'm bright white.

Well the red stiching matches the shifter boots and other rubicon parts. The grey grill embroidery look good and different. No issue for me just a bit of a surprise. The perforated leather is a nice upgrade.

Did you not get a fold-down rear center armrest either?

Jeeps with the perforated leather start life with cloth seats, so the rear fold down armrest is missing. I believe you also forgo the leather covered door armrests.

Interesting. So getting the "upgraded leather" actually isn't worth it at all.

It may be worth it to some, but Jeep and its dealers have to do a much better job explaining what you get —and don’t get— when you chose one leather options vs another.

The upgraded leather is a higher quality and is much softer than the standard leather having had both now I can say for sure. It’s true there is no rear center foldown armrest.

I think the answer to your surprise is, that's the matching interior to the Tuscadero exterior color.

I don’t think that is correct. I seem to recall seeing a couple other Tuscadero colored JLs with different or no embroidery. I need to look for some pics.

You should see other car company websites, Mazda, Toyota, and Hyundai. All horrible, they make the Jeeps website look advanced!
