I'm very close to ordering a Rubicon Diesel. There are a few option I want, but based on what I read at jeep.com, I don't think can be found as an option on a Rubicon.

Universal garage door opener
Power Heated Mirrors
Tailgate Lock (electronic) - Manual lock is OK
Apple Car Play on the 8.4" Display (can't tell if it's available or not)
400W Inverter AC outlet in the center console for the rear seat

I would order most of the options available to a Rubicon, but the specs appear the items above may not come on a Rubicon

All of those features are standard on a Rubicon (I only question myself on the Car Play option).

CarPlay and Android auto are included in all 7” and 8.4” radios.
tailgate lock comes with keyless entry
Ac outlet comes standard on Rubicon as it’s part of the package with the 7” radio- incl on 8.4”

heated mirrors I am not sure on, you
May need the cold weather package for that, heated seats and steering wheel.
Garage door opener comes on Rubicon standard I believe.

I'm satisfied that I'll get everything above but without the heated mirrors with a Rubicon. The spray in bedliner is currently not available to order on a Rubicon.

My order is this:

I believe the heated mirrors are part of the cold weather group.

I know there were some changes between 2020 and 2021. I don't know if the diesel changes anything in the Rubicon.

I would skip the JEEP grab handles and JEEP sill guards. If you want them they can be found for less and in the case of the sill guards, better coverage.

The spray in bed liner, I believe it is a Line-X shop the factory uses. You can have it done cheaper locally after you have taken possession. Line-X offers deals all the time.

Thanks!

I will install a steel bumper (and winch) myself. I will be flat towing this behind my motorhome. I would rather get a steel bumper that I can hook my tow bar up to directly, rather than getting a bracket that mounts below the bumper.

I'll look into Line-X!

Your front bumper is going to be expensive, BUT there are several good options where they build the mounts for tow bar's in. You just have to select which version of tow bar.
