Anyone else noticing the discrepancy between the online builder and the build sheets? Looking at the build sheets, for example, the Alpine Premium Audio System (RC4, $1295) is included in the 8.4" Radio and Premium Audio Group (AEK, $1595). However, the online builder forces the inclusion AND charges both $1295 and $1595.

And of course, the steel front bumper is still missing.

There are many ways in which the jeep.com builder is broken.
  • It won't let you configure a Sport-S with 6-speed manual transmission (MT) & Cold Weather Package (I was able to order it on mine).
  • It WILL allow you to configure Sport-S with MT & limited slip differential (Order guide says option N/A with manual).
  • It DOESN'T have all the Mopar options that can be installed @ factory such as katzkin covers, soft tri-fold tonneau, hard tri-fold tonneau, hood decals, DIFFERENT side steps, etc.

Online builder? What about the official Monroney stickers on the JLs that had glaring errors that resulted in personal lawsuits, or the brochures and printed materials that were full or errors? FCA simply doesn't do a good job of proofing and checking their published materials. The fact that the online tool has errors isn't surprising. There are still people trying to order the Limited Slip Differential along with the Max Towing package to this day because the online tool says they can, even though the order guide clearly says you can't.

Hmm. It doesn’t double charge when I build one.

Here's the quote. In the Interior section, $1295. In the Packages section, $1595. Compared to the build sheets, that's $1295 too much. The google docs price configurator echoes the build sheet data.

The online ( Build your Gladiator) page has been plagued with Glitches and Mistakes ( lots of them) since it was put up, don't trust it to be accurate
