Starting to think about ordering whats the best setup

[tommyp]

Looking for a truck for road trips out west with my family. Kinda a bit overwhelmed by the spreadsheet choices etc. Never ordered a jeep before.

Would like the best axles - max tow?
Power windows all around would be nice (are we really dealing with roll up windows in 2021?)
Hard top
probably usb in the back but it seems like that brings all sorts of costs.
Auto trans (so anyone can hop in and drive)
Full time case ( so anyone can hop in and drive in the snow)
cold weather package (nice but not necessity)
rock rails (can add later)
winch bumper (can add later)


Sport max tow
Sport S max tow?
Freedom edition?

Any thoughts? I have a full shop at my house with lift and can fabricate whatever. Will add much larger tires and have to regear anyway. What would maximize my money? Sport and forget about having power anything?

Looks like the Sport S with max tow, auto, cold weather group, pop eq package, full timecase and auto puts me at 43,500. that seems like the best deal to me? Any thoughts

It seems like the Sport S is the best bang for the buck.

I am placing an Order soon as well and I am looking at an 80th, mainly because it's the cheapest trim/package with the Keyless Proximity sensors. The keyless/touch entry is something that I've had since 2016 and can't live without now.

My Order is:
- Auto
- Hard top
- Adaptive Cruise (it's going be my daily and ACC is useful in my area)
- Cold Weather Group (happy wife = happy life)
- Trailer Tow Package
- Keyless entry
- Trac-Lok
- Aux switch group

Later on, I plan on adding:
- Line-X sprayin bed liner (it's cheaper)
- Access Tonneau cover
- LED Headlights from Oracle/Mopar (plan on changing out the bumper anyways)

On the same boat debating between ordering Mopar bedliner or Line-x on a Sport S max tow. Line-x is not cheaper. Cost ~$600 in my area. And doing Line-x could void the factory rust warranty?

And now totally side tracked this topic. Also debating in my head a mid $40s Gladiator or a Cybertruck next year?

These are all good thoughts. thanks

Honeslty a max tow sounds right for what you are describing, add cold weather and let the aftermarket handle the rest?
I went with line-x with UV protectant and am super happy with it.
