You CAN build each model on jeep.com, just can't Price it ! The main diff is just like the diff for the JLU's - Power windows and more options offerings not available to the BASE (basic) Sport. Unless your short on funds, the Sport S is well worth the additional $$$ ! of course as always IMO . Stand by to stand by . . . changes are in the offing in the build/price pages.
It's a sport s. Check out the wheels.
Yup . . . the Sport Base Model also has STEEL wheels all around - the only one you can do a 5 tire rotation IF you want all wheels the same . . . without going & buying a new set OR buying ONE from JEEP - $$$$ ! I inquired about this for my G.C. and the Price was OVER $700 for 1 rim ! No thanks .
Don’t believe that’s correct - the sport does have steel wheels, but they’re not the same as any of the spares we’ve seen. The mains are 5 spoke black wheels, and the spares are 18 hole disc style wheels.
Hey Lou2.0 FYI a lot of times a persons ability to pay the price for anything has nothing at all to do with their decision about what to buy or what not to buy. I could afford to pay for a Moab Wrangler but I actually lean to a Sport or to Sport S Gladiator. Simple reason is that I really don’t want to have power windows, mirrors and locks or leather or any other do dads that come with the upper level Gladiators. In fact if I could get one with rubber flooring and no carpet then I would do that in a heartbeat. I have a 2007 FJ Cruiser and it’s got rubber floors, love that part of it. I get in with wet, muddy feet from the boat landing and later just wipe it clean. To me a Wrangler or a Gladiator is a work and play vehicle that just should have some things as manual, not power. My humble opinion.
Then Sport S is what you're looking for and what we actually got for our '18 JLU. You don't need to spend $$$s for the Sahara for those basic upgrades.
This is correct. You don’t have to step up to the Sahara to get power windows and locks- Sport S.
Beat me to it. Also, why would you get the one without power locks just to add them later. Plus the far fetched scenario of driving into a lake? Come on now Jake. But just in case you do find yourself in that unlikely scenario you should know this. Just like in underwater helicopter egress training, which I have done, you don't move until the cabin is full of water. Once your doomed gladiator fills with water the pressure will be equal inside and out. Then you just open the door. But if you're that worried about it, should you even be driving?
they may be steel, but don't look like the other spares on the build/price tool. =(
