Your gonna be sorry the first time you drive that limo. They are doing 15-20% off and dealer lots are full of JT’s. Just think about it.
Why sorry after driving it? Who is doing 15-20% off? I have seen the occasional 10-15% off left over 2020 models.

I drove a Toyota Tacoma short bed for six months. Gawd, that thing was long!

This is what it felt like to maneuver it around a parking lot.

I inquired about trading in my 18’ JLR
for money wise, it was not worth it (what my payments would have been).
And now my jeep is paid off, I would love to. But not having a payment is feeling good now. So it’s a tough one

Only if I had the funds to lift it about 4.5 - 5 inches, install Dana 60s, plus 40s on 20s. I'm lifted about 3 inches and 37s on my JLUR but that combo looks tiny on the JT. It really needs to go much bigger to look right. Oh, and I would need an extra $200 a month just on gas.

JT’s also share something very unique with theJeep Renegade. 0% financing. Lol

Nope. I had a JT rental for a few days and 600 miles. I greatly prefer my Ram.

As has been said, depends on YOUR needs. I’ve got a 1500 Ram and a JL and would not trade simply because they fill two very dif
JT concept...

Gotta get that obligatory "let's divide the community" comment in there. Pathetic.

Shaun’s JT from The Story Till Now YouTube channel is pretty badass, but a lot of work has been done:

Meh... At first I was planning to buy a JT, but I’m happy I went with a 2021 JLUR.

This is how I reasoned it out... you can easily fold down the seats in a JLU and get a ton of space to haul stuff if needed. The only time I expect to haul something large enough to need that much space would be on shorter trips without the need for the 2 backseats and worse case we take 2 cars if that’s not the case. Then if I ever do need a pickup truck bed to haul something (rare), I can just rent one, which just isn’t common enough to warrant buying a pickup truck that takes up that much space. I just think the JLU is innovative enough the way it is, which works for my needs/application.

I also love a soft top and hate how the soft top looks when it’s down on the JT compared to a JL.
