Other than the girth, is there anything else we are supposed to be impressed by?
Based on that remark, Iâll venture a guess that we do not like the same things.

Wow - come out the closet itâs ok - the world is open minded now -
Mike stop watching the girls on tik took and get back to the cars
Are they seeing this as an opportunity or are they curating this with the banks?
I wouldnât be surprised if manufactures and their finance arms were intentionally incentivizing programs with banks to induce longer terms to promote more interest and higher MSRPs.
This is exactly what I was thinking, had no idea they were the same body. Wonât these compete with each other too much to make sense?
Are there really huge differences between the two other than the pricing? Seems like they probably could have condensed this into one vehicle with a ton of different model choices, kind of like the GC now
Who me? Lol

Be a lot nicer if they found a tasteful way to put some of that wood on the OUTSIDE.

I would bet there is a woodie special edition in the pipeline. Of course Jeep NEVER does special editions so who knows?

I think as the standard equipment including new safety & convinence features started becoming standard on most models & prices started creeping up, car companies had to work with their finance arms to figure out a solution & longer terms was one of the easiest way out.
but i think it cant confidently argue that the idea couldnât have started with raising the prices as well
Tech has widened the gap between luxury cars/well equiped mainstream cars and more basic transportation. As people wanted to have cars with all the tech niceties and, to some extent luxury, the only option was to extend out the loan to keep the car payments affordable to the middle class.
As an aside, Iâm not convinced that safety features are a terribly important contributor to price creep. Toyota has managed to put itâs suite or safety features in pretty much every car it makes including itâs cheap ones. These certainly increase the cost of cars but they are not why a Highlander platinum or Telluride SX is 50k dollars.

Yes indeed. There will be a line of them at the Starbucks drive through after school dropoff while on cell phones telling their BFFâs how uncompassionate and out of touch their husbands areâŚ
Bingo! Nailed it
On the size, Iâd hate to drive something this big. I want as small as can be and still fit two kids
Sorry if Iâve missed this in the comments above, but any idea when the Wagoneers are going to be available? Neighbor said he talked to a dealer, and they still donât know or are saying end of 2021.
Iâm personally a fan of these. As a suburb dweller, weâre surrounded by Escalades, Tahoes, Denalis, and a few RRs, so I like that itâs different but still has all the amenities. Not as flashy as the Escalade or RR, so not traveling around trying to prove how much money you make. If youâre asking about the target market, itâs probably us. We go to a cabin almost every weekend in the summer and we have two kids, so the third row will primarily be used as an area to pack coolers, bikes, fishing gear, etc., but itâs also nice to have the third row option when youâre bringing kids to activities. Pretty #Basic, but is what it is.

Sounds like a great childhood for the kids
Will you stop that? Thereâs absolutely nothing wrong with any of what was said just because itâs not what you subscribe to.
Who said thereâs something wrong with what he said?
I sensed the sarcasm
I sensed it big time
Youâd probably enjoy a fishing trip at the cabin
