Maybe this is a thread that could stay away from the Moab v Rubicon issue. Just talk shit on the Altitude.
Seems like you have a case of... w a i t f o r i t ... w a i t ... f o r ... i t ... Altitude Attitude!
:CWL:

That package starts as a base Sport model, so everything listed under "Altitude Package" are things a Sport wouldn't normally have.
Fair point...let me rephrase it...it’s just a customer preferred package with black accents and wheels. Cause I’ve got the customer preferred package on mine and those are the only differences...

That's what every special edition is.

Well, at least they don't have to pull out the grille and bumper inserts and painting them black, saves about 4 hours of labor and a can of spray paint, and a couple of broken brackets, I'd say that's a win.
This version of the Altitude doesn't even include special edition leather seats. Why does this exist?
Gives you about a 4 hr head start and maybe $100 rebate to your journey on modding it into a Moab.

That's one reason I went with a Moab instead of a Sahara - I personally don't like the chrome so I would have blacked it out somehow.

Did some quick Googling - it's pretty consistent with other Jeep models that have an Altitude trim level (GC, Compass and Renegade are they ones I found). Don't know that I'd call it a "Special Edition" without a little more to it.

I notice you didn't compare it to the JK wrangler, which is the most obvious direct comparison.
