I assume that this is 2025 and up.
That's from the 2026 model year equipment guide.
My 2025 does not have the Mojave wheel (as my friend, ecidiego knows)

I would like to know - of the Mojave owners, say 23 and up, that DO and DO NOT have the proper Mojave wheel - what does their BUILD SHEET show?

This is a snippet from my 2025 build sheet - if that code is for a Mojave wheel - hmmm, then I'd really have a basis to say something. But my bet is that's simply showing a "leather wrapped wheel" and nothing else.

The Mojave wheel is "leather wrapped performance". It's thicker, has the fat spots, and the perforated leather on the sides with orange stitching.

Yes, but is that how it's on the build sheet? I know what it looks like, and have compared a number of them on the lot. Was looking for how they listed the steering wheel in recent years.

I really want a forged carbon fiber steering wheel, but I'm not spending several hundred bucks on one. Maybe if I could sell my stock Mojave steering wheel

Does it have shift paddles, too?
That's what I'd like. But I'm not spending the money for a once in a great while, and "gee, I'd like that".

I like this one, but I'm not paying for it. I think the paddles work on all the wheels. You just have to have a different back or pop out the little doors.

I am looking at a 2025 Mojave X and it does not have the Mojave steering wheel like the 2020 Mojave my in-law has. Kind of disappointing as I REALLY like that steering wheel. This is how it is listed on the window sticker. No orange stitching either, it has grey stitching.

Yep. That’s exactly what I got. I called my dealer yesterday and asked them if they would replace it. They are going to reach out to a regional rep or something and call me back. I don’t really expect to get anywhere, but the service manager did tell me he owns a JTR with the red stitches wheel and he would have been less happy with a non-matching grey stitched wheel, so maybe I’ll get lucky…

Still going to have the other stitching in grey also like on the center console shift boots and such.

For sure. It’s annoying they didn’t match it all. Frankly I would t care as much about the steering wheel if it were just the color, but I really want the thicker wheel.
