Agreed.
I must be bored, I'm thinking about why whomever put that interior image together chose to show it in 4low, axles locked, speedometer at 68 mph and tach at 2k RPM. ..

That's how it ended up when Uconnect shit the bed and left it stranded on the side of the road.

Me too. The black doesn’t work for me.

Yep, hate black grills, and more than anything hate black wheels. Don’t get the fad. Looks like some damn crackhead pawned his hubcaps for a fix.
Guess growing up in the era of gleaming Cragar Mags on the baddest ass vehicles instilled that in me.
To each his own though. Doesn’t mean that I have to like it. Got my Gobi Mojave home on a Thursday, Friday morning the Bronze wheels went on.

I think the tiny fake 7-slot grill looks like crap. I have not seen a full-side view, but I suspect Flea-ot has raked the hood in an attempt to improve MPG. I imagine the rake will make it difficult to swap in a new power plant.
That infotainment system looks out of place in a Jeep.
I, too, see the allure of polished wheels; as the youngest kid, I was relegated to polishing the chrome bumpers and wheels and grew to hate brake dust. I had Alcoa wheels on my work truck and hated trying to keep them clean. I like the dark wheel look, a quick brush over them, and they look clean.

Not just you. The grill is definitely too small. It's iconic and should stand out. And the big screen doesn't look like it belongs there. It's as if the engineers knew they had to put a bigger screen but never bothered to integrate it into the dash so it flows better.
I would like auto seat adjustment and some of the new features but I like the old look better.

I agree, but have you ever taken out an electric seat? Those things got some weight to them. I bet the grill was to claw back 6 oz. The more heavy stuff they add to these Jeeps from the factory, the more stuff they have to lighten up somewhere else, I hope it's not important stuff.
It's just a convenience thing for me. My wife wants to drive the Jeep too so having a couple of preset positions like our other car would be a nice feature. I don't mind manual seats.
And c'mon now. Stellantis would never remove important stuff...

Right on, I have to admit it's a nice creature comfort and I'd have sprung for it. I guess it's just now that my Jeep gets about 10mpg, all I can think about is weight. I told my wife '"you need to lose about 3 pounds off your head, it's not allowed to come off the bootie".

The JL grill will fit on the 2024 Wrangler (and vise versa).
Umm... ok

The fitment doesn't make you like it more?

Just sayin’- If you get a ‘24 Wrangler and like the older JL grill better, it’s a direct swap.

With the Accuair seat feature, your seat will be self positioned and self-leveled with a puff of air to accomplish the adjustments that previously required heavy electric motors. Magnesium will be used for the seat frame. These steps will make the seat even lighter than manual seats.
