Think Rubicon is Black Cloth (mine) or leather. Which is a pricey upgrade that is the only two options.

Command track can be on any Wrangler I think, it gives a bit more control on snowy slippery roads and such. It is little better than 4H for highway speeds. Think of it as AWD on a car compared to full time 4H without it.

The Rubicon has a lot more upgrades that are not everyday, locking diffs, different Transfer Case etc.

With all that said High Tide is a limited addition run for Jeep week. It will be much more rare Wrangler than Rubicon. Not sure if that matters in the long run.

The High Tide is more of a high trim Sport, like the Willys. If I were comparing these two trims, I would focus on your need for electronic lockers and sway bar disconnect. The seats most likely have to do with the Rubicon stitching. Unless you get the Select-Trac, I believe all Jeeps have the Command-Trac system. The other thing to consider is the High Tide is a limited run and I don’t think you can order one anymore. You will be subject to dealer inventory and their markup.

Select Trac is optional full time and includes AWD like mode.

Command Trac is standard

Haha that is funny, I edited my post because I said Select Track but since the OP said it like it was the upgrade I thought I named it wrong! Yes Select track is the AWD. Sorry about that. I will be quiet!

Selec Track is most definitely not AWD. It is more of a "when needed 4wd".
AWD and 4WD are completely seperate beasts.

I have it on mine but to be completely honest, I prefer to tap my tcase into 4wd when I feel it required. I just prefer to "know" when it's in 4wd. In saying that, it's great on the highway though during a snow storm and you have the patches of ice or snow where you might be concerned about traction.
