Hi Guys, Im Carlos from xLaRuta.
In this thread you will find all the modifications i will be doing to my New JT Rubicon 2021 and i will describe or report experiences.
Since the beginning of last year when I found out about the new jeep pickup I couldn't stop thinking and imagining one of them, I was always a fan of the Wranglers for all their off-road capabilities but I always leaned more to pickups, now that They decided to release this new model, I decided and proposed to buy one as soon as I had the possibility.
Around this time last year (September 2019I entered the United States of America as the husband of a magnificent woman (although I know that she is not going to read this, I would like you to know that she has been supporting me in all the decisions of this acquisition) and in order to seek a better life by his side.
Since I found this forum I have not stopped learning (or at least that is what I try) and compile all the information that could be useful for my Jeep or adventures. It is a great community and I thank everyone for sharing their experiences and guidance.
Special thanks to @eternus for his spreadsheet and to the moderators of the site for the vast information.
Some information that helped me to know more about how to choose and how much to spend on the desired jeep:
Feel Free to ask me anything on the posts or by PM.
Disclaimer: Im Spanish speaker as 1st language and i will be using google translate to help me on my documentation, i apologize in advance for my bad english.

Some information that helped me to know more about how to choose and how much to spend on the desired jeep:
- Order Guide there is usually a new guide every month of what is added or removed from jeep models (colors, prices, packages). This guide also includes all the data that you must bring including each factory model
- Pricing Worksheet If you have already entered Jeep.com and playing with the model configurator you will understand what this spreadsheet is about. Here you will find more in depth the prices in Invoice and MSRP as well as the different prices with different discounts that your sales agent can possibly offer you. Make sure you follow all the steps from the author... and you can invite him an e-coffe if you want
- Do not be afraid and visit all the car agencies around you to see and test the different jeep models. Always try to reach out to the sales agent with a defined plan and expense for your future car, so they won't try to sell you what they already have on the lot. In general, agencies have models with packages predefined by them "based" on what people who live in the area "like". Check the previous links that I mention and get your accounts and what you really need. If what they offer is not what you calculated or expected, go and say no without fear, do not be afraid to "waste" time trying the different models. As for me, I chose to choose a sales agent here in southern California who offered me a 4% discount on invoice, some others offer 6 or 7% depending on whether you meet all the requirements.
- If you are not interested in looking for sales agents outside of your city or you have mistrust, you can join and get a membership with the group Treadligthly, this memberships will give you an additional 1% with your local dealership.
- Once the order has been placed, it only remains to wait 6 to 8 weeks if everything goes well.
- Here you will found more tips and the process of your order
