2025 Mojave X

[ShadowsPapa]

In the end if you’re happy with it that’s all that matters! Now let’s see some pics of that glorious Mojito! I love the pop of that color and it’s one of the few I’d potentially go for coming from my Hydro Blue now.

I almost crapped when I realized today that these two Jeeps together cost a lot more than our house did when we bought it! YIKES.

Wow…. I’m not familiar with how this site works. Should I go offer him a crying towel?

I guess he takes the thumb pads and orange stitching seriously.

The silly thing is - my wife - literally, has no thumbs......so if you even mention anything like "this steering wheel has" - she'll look at you like "so the F what? I don't have any thumbs. Who cares"

Those two color complement each other pretty well.

Thanks.
I wondered how they'd look together.
I'd like to get them both out on a sunny day, side-by-side, and get pictures.

To this day, any time we see a nice looking Wrangler, she speaks right up with "but mine's prettier". (and of course, my response is "certainly is!")

Y’all are gonna be the talk of the town with that duo, congrats on the new pick up and enjoy!

Did I read somewhere in the comments the Mojave hood is steel and not aluminum?

Naw, you've probably been ignored/blocked.
It's still there - if you aren't logged in.
He's simply blocked me because he didn't like my posts disagreeing with his contentions on it being a performance wheel.

Very happy with my Mojave - and the steering wheel and stitching. It's a darned truck, not a status symbol. The really important stuff that makes it a Mojave is there.
I like that the steering wheel matches the shifter knob, brake handle and so on.

Wow, I'm new to message boards like Robert. I hope he doesn't think that a Jeep engineer really stole my steering wheel. It was a joke, not something serious like alien abduction. Why do they the aliens only abduct me out of the Mojave and never the Rubicon? Is it the orange stitching?

Same here. $88K at 7% and I thought I was getting a steal on interest.

And yes, please do get some glamor shots of your two Jeeps together. That's a cool combo.

Yup, that’s right. Go lift the hood on any non Mohave trim. The difference in weight is huge.

Yes, and I had to order different struts for my redline tuning hood lift setup

About to pull the trigger on a 2025 Mojave X that has some extras. MSRP is $65,745. Got them OTD at $59,200

Not as steep as the ‘24 deals but curious if anyone that’s purchased similarly has some insights. I have been looking through the posts but haven’t seen anything super recent on the ‘25s.

Reminder: They took things off that were standard on the 24. FOR ME, the most obvious was the full time four wheel drive, "Selec Trac" on Mojaves and "Rock Trac" on Rubicon's. Might not be a big deal for most, but is for certain people living in the mountains... I'm certain...

SelecTrac is standard on the X package -
Order the X version and you get full-time 4 wheel drive in Rubicon or Mojave.
It's there, trust me - did my research as I was not happy to see it on any order guide or window sticker, but it's there. It's in my new X and on my build sheet (and on a certain consumer marketing piece)

This is my 2025 X ->

I'm familiar with Selec-Trac on my 1991 XJ with a NP 242. I have the Rock-Trac on my 2013 Rubicon.

On my new MojaveX I thought it had Selec-Trac.

This is on the shifter and the cluster.

2wd
4H "auto" (full time) center unlocked
4H (part time) center locked
4L (part time) center locked

switch - 4H rear diff lock
switch - 4L rear diff lock

Is this correct?

I find it ironic that they are selling hundreds of the 2024 and 2025 Mojave to people, some are forum members, and the number of gripes about missing orange stitching or perforated leather is all but zero save for someone not buying.

Apparently it's not a huge deal. And yes, they DO market research and it's extremely possible people just didn't care.
Cost cutting? Hmmmm, maybe, but that's 100% speculation, too. It's a guess and nothing at all more. If people don't give a rip, why spend the money is my take.

I find it interesting that some of us were blocked for disagreeing on a steering wheel - some of us having driven many hundreds of vehicles over many decades in all sorts of conditions. The steering wheel is an opinion, personal taste, personal comfort.
At first I thought it was just me - but having seen that at least one other was blocked for disagreeing over a steering wheel preferences, facts vs. opinions, and a bit of joking around - amazing. Really??

That's all I'll say on that here in this thread from here on.

Funny, I see no mention of aliens going after Jeeps in this - they do eat Subarus, Cadillacs, Lincolns and so on.

It does have it...........

From my 2025 Mojave X build sheet -

It's clutch controlled in the transfer case and it's very interesting to watch the pressures during acceleration and other stuff while in 4H auto.
