I could have bumped a few more, but didn't. Only bumped the ones which featured pertinent info to new visitors to the forum these next 96hours after official reveal.
The only real slap in the face was Jeep not giving us any info about the JL, and then revealing all the Mopar accessories at the SEMA show. I know (hope) they weren't doing it to be nefarious, but it felt like it. Whether Jeep likes it or not, the enthusiasts (wheelers) have given the brand the clout that it has. Jeep can push Renegades and Compasses on people because the Jeep badge still means something. If Jeep want's to try and carry the aftermarket torch we wish them luck, but historically that's not how it's been. They have offered Mopar lifts, winches, wheels, fenders, etc... for a long time. But it's rare I see a Mopar'd out Jeep on the trails.

Plus, we've always offered products for Jeepers that are looking to push their rigs to the limit AND make it home still looking pretty. I think there is plenty of room for everyone in the market.
They completely honored the aftermarket. They have bolts by the windshield cowl that are for no purpose other than accessories. The roll cage bolts in so that it can be removed and replaced with an aftermarket cage, there is molle webbing, and the list goes on and on. This is the most accessory friendly Jeep yet, as it was designed with this in mind. You have to realize that they are competitors in the aftermarket, so they took a liberty that is theirs to take. They clearly listened to customers with this. You'll have stuff completely ready by the time these start hitting the streets and trails in any numbers. If you don't already have one on order, then you can't blame anyone else for missing the boat.The only real slap in the face was Jeep not giving us any info about the JL, and then revealing all the Mopar accessories at the SEMA show.

Not enough space without blocking both tail lamps. We are working on a carrier that can carry more stuff though
Following as I'm looking for a meet in the middle tire carrier to carry a single gas can and reinforce for 35s... without spending 2.5-3k for a full bumper + separate tire swing gate/carrier.Not enough space without blocking both tail lamps.
