So to the ones with their JTs and the ones that have ordered, are there features you wish you got or didn't get?

Like do people that are waiting on the LE waiting they should've just gotten any other one to get it sooner? Wish you got ACC or Blind Spot sensing?

I ordered a fairly loaded Rubicon and felt like I HAD to have some things like LED, underseat lockable storage, trail cam, aux switches. I ordered it almost two weeks ago and have some regrets about not ordering the bluetooth speaker. I mean, it's $300 with is a lot but not really when you look at it with financing or leasing. But if that's my biggest regret, I can live with it. I probably would order it if done over though. Some other regrets or uncertainties were Rubi vs Overland and soft vs hard tops. Ended up with the black hard top. Maybe I shoulda gotten the Blind Spot monitoring which I really like but my build was already pricey.

Yeah I never had Blind Spot monitoring so don't miss what I never had. But it does seem like a feature I would like. The price without it is already hard to swallow as it is.

I wish I had gotten the LED light package instead of my leather seats. I like my leather seats but when I ordered on the first day of general ordering on 4/28, they were only accepting Rubicon orders with the leather seat option for the first couple of days.

LED lights is the one option that I'm on the fence for. $1k seems like a chunk for some lights, but they do look good!

I am not languishing over it but had I not been forced into the leather seats at ordering time that took my allotted fun money margins, I would have sprung for the LED's,

Everybody's tastes are different for what their niceties and necessities are.

May I also add that I would like to get the power plug in the bed, but I don't want the securing points. Wish I could get the plug for a couple hundred bucks instead of the $900.

Yes, pricey, but so is aftermarket... and think you get all your lights led, inside and out.

Also, my first 2014 JK had the stock halogen lights... the sucked sooo bad that I had to upgrade the lights within the first week.

I wish that the aux power 120 volt and 400 watts did not exist, looks good but so does a bad boob lift until you look close or try to use them. I do not carry a fancy blender for cool drinks on the beach, that about all the power outlet is good for.

I miss my cooled seats from the Denali. The bliss system is great since I am used to big mirrors and a blind spot mirror, it took getting used to a little triangle, but I wouldn't be without it in this truck. Power seats would be nice, but not a big deal really. Front and rear steel bumpers are a nice change without having to go aftermarket. Would have bee nice for the mopar lift fox shocks to feel just like stock. More body roll than before, though center of gravity is higher, so that might be the cause.

Overland - Leather dash stitching hidden (or no stitching at all) so it doesn’t reflect in line of sight right in the middle of the windshield when the sun is just right.

+ Cooled front seats
+ Heated rear seats

I'm realizing I should have opted for the proximity key dealio. Basically upgraded everything else, so not sure why I stopped at that.

I’m wishing I would have gotten the trail camera. Originally I wasn’t going to get the 8.4 audio so I ruled out the trail cam. Then I decided to add 8.4 but didn’t even think about the trail cam again since I had ruled it out earlier.

I HAD to get the trail cam, one the the main reasons I went for a Rubi. With my Ridgeline it's so hard to gauge distance in the front so I always back in. Gonna put a stop to that. And it will ease my anxiety when going off road
