I thought the affiliate pricing was no longer available. Another question is, so does FCA still allow third party buyouts then? Is that how people are flipping these? Or are you taking out $50k short loans to buy out the lease and then flipping it to dealers or carvana?
So Iām out driving yesterday in the evening (in my beautiful bone stock Frontier S CC) and pull up behind a brand spanking new 4XE in Black with Black hard top. (No dealer bracket or anything) .
Guys got all his windows down, freedom panels off etc (it was near 70 degrees) so I end up pulling up to him at the next light , and roll my window down and say āhey man, beautiful ride, whereād ya get that from, did you order it or in stockā?
He tells me he got it on the dealer lot near Edgewater, NJ. I say, was it expensive? He comes back to me and says āoh they killed, I paid a few thousand over MSRP ā etc. I said, ahh man, just enjoy it and we proceeded to both drive away as the light turned green.
Point is, donāt cry cause rates went up alittle. This is still a great deal especially in this market and there are folks daily buying these things over MSRP consistently.
You have no idea how bad the market is for people buying/leasing new cars right now fyi

Affiliate went away towards the end of last year and came back in january. It also isnt necessarily needed. There are plenty of options discounting deeper than affiliate.
Ccap still allows 3rd party buy outs.
We are a minority. Every time I hear what people pay for cars nowadays, I cringe. Most do not buy outside the local dealer, let alone from other states.

Im still amazed how many people post in the jeep forums/fb groups that theyre paying way over msrp right next to a link to a dealer doing way under. Even when its smacking them in the face, they choose to overpay.

Yes third party buyouts are still allowed, but could end at any time. TLDR is order your car with the assumption that you may be keeping it through the lease term.
Everyone here is leasing. Chrysler is giving the full $7500 rebate on a 36mo lease (not sure about shorter terms) plus your 7-10% discount. Theyāre either doing a one-pay ($12-20k) or paying monthly. Your dealer gets dinged if you sell/flip within 90 days, so try to hold for at least that long. Some are keeping their Jeeps because itās the best deal right now and you arenāt going to find a better value (except maybe a Frontier), others are flipping, but depending on the market it may/may not be worth your time/effort. For me personally, Iām paying under $400/mo for a $60k+ vehicle which isnāt happening anywhere else in this market. Iāll flip if I find a replacement vehicle, but I regardless, I need something to drive. The fact that gas prices are sky high and iām getting 30mpg+ on my 4XE doesnāt hurt either.

Theyāre literally tripping over, and ignoring, great deals to sign on the ridiculous ones.

Ya ive seen plenty 4xe around LI and they all have LI dealer brackets. I have only seen 2 4xe with Darcars bracket to this day 
Any of you tow with the 4xe, I realize it is rated to 3500lbs. but just wondering about any real world experience towing a travel trailer right around 3000lbs.?
It blows my mind how little research people will do before making a big purchase. Theyāll shop for cheap groceries or worry about how much of a tip to leave at a restaurant, but then will make completely boneheaded decisions when buying a car, house, or other relatively major financial choices.

I have seen few 4xe with darcars plates on nyc. Most are local dealers. You know they paid full msrp and did not get 7.5k back if they leased.

Instant gratification. Donāt discount how much more some people will pay to have something āNOWā. I donāt get it though, the Jeep forums also lists dealers like Gupton etc. I supposed some people walk into a dealership, see a shiny new red Rubicon and have to take it home.
Youāll probably get a better response on features/usage stuff at the Jeep JL forums or the 4XE forums. Most of us here are focused on ordering, pricing, etc.
My quote from Clutch included pricing with the $7,500 and I plan to lease. What do you mean people arenāt getting the $7,500 if they leased?
I agree with all above. This deal is still a good deal even in Texas. I just absolutely refuse to have the same payment for a car not even 1/2 the price of my vehicle on order.
Quick question. Would there be a 2023 model coming? And if it is, what time can we expect the orders for 2023 to start and deliver?
Another quick question. I want to install a dashcam on the 4xe. Before I start my research, I am assuming people here have already installed those. So are there any recommendations on which one to buy and any tips on how to install it?
Thanks
As far I know the there will be a 2023 model coming. As of when, no one knows.
