Question for you all who have or will be financing...what kind of interest rates are you finding? The best I found locally so far is 5.99% for 60-mo or 6.24% for 72-mo. Dealer thinks they can beat that with another local credit union...

The steering wheel cross section is different.... more oval than round.

It does seem quieter at speed. Even though my 21 had the hotheads panels and the new one does not.

The exhaust sounds "different" especially when engine braking. I'm not sure how to quantify it.

Curious to your thoughts on the overall build quality VS your 2021 392 - Greatly Appreciate your thoughts if you don’t mind

Keep in mind that I only have about 50 miles of seat time.

No rattles or squeaks. The passenger seat does not creak or pop like the old one did. Steering is tight and responsive, there might be a bit more turning effort required compared to the old one... maybe it's just the larger tires or just "new" and will loosen up. It's not "bad", just different.

I did find a small scuff or imperfection I the instrument panel center section... right over the PND indicator. Not sure I'll take it in to have them tear it apart to fix, but if I have en excuse to remove the cluster, I'd drop a new clear lens in it.

Overall, no real complaints. Fit and finish seem good to me.

Thoughts on the Nappa leather material versus the standard leather?

Here are the pictures of mine the dealer sent me. I love the color, but I know I’m never going to hear the end of it from my wife on the red seats (she doesn’t know yet).

Seats look better than I expected. Seat belt seems to be a brighter red? Regardless, I'm starting to have regrets. I think the Earl one is going to make me have major regrets. I should probably ignore this thread.

I got the Nappa... I have no idea how it's different. Seems like any other leather seat I've ever had.

The seat belts are a brighter red... kind of annoying. But recovering the seats and/or swapping out for black seatbelts would not be that hard or expensive.

I don't mind the red seats.... but I will likely swap in black belts at some point.

I sure hope the 24 seats are the same combination not the all red like the prototypes out running around!

Thanks for the pics of the Hydro.

How is yours in regards to fit and finish?

Are you thinking she won’t like the red seats?

I haven’t seen it in person yet. It’s in Tennessee. I’m either going to fly out to get it Tuesday or Thursday next week. On my wife, she wanted me to pick black, and that color would definitely flow better with the seat colors. It just going to be an “I told you so” every time we get in the Jeep, lol.

Is your window sticker available?

“Sorry, a Window Sticker is unavailable for this VIN” this is as of June 2, 2:52 AM. This is the first time the link was available to see a window sticker. Mine just flipped to Ship Date June 9.

Curious to know how many folks hate these seats. I personally LOVE the contrast, and would've ordered the red/black in a second if the option was available when I ordered my '22. Possible trades for some perfect 6Kmi '22 black seats?? Rears have been used once...no kids or animals have been back there either. Just curious.

Ask me again in a few months... I told myself I was going to let it marinate a bit before I did anything. Right now the seat belts are more of an eyesore for me than the seats.

Haha- fair enough!
