Bought today. Drove it home. Coming from a long time loyalty to Jeep - 2004 Grand Cherokee 160,000 ... 92" Wrangler before that with over 300K ... love my Jeeps ... this "thing" is amazing. .... fucking amazing.
Nice video! I think the Trailsport is actually the best value. I read several reviews that indicated the EX-L was the best value, but that is for the FWD model that has lower ground clearance. Go to any Honda dealership and you won't find one FWD on their lots. These vehicles are being delivered with AWD which is only a 2500.00 price difference when compared to the Trailsport. If you plan to do any light off roading the tires/wheels on the TS are better. Plus, with the TS, you get roof rails, fog lights, navigation, floor mats, and other differences in aesthetics. Originally, I was set on buying the EX-L because there was no way I was going to pay more for a TS, but after I started looking I noted there really wasn't that big of a difference in price. For instance, I went to one dealership in my area that had more than three thousand dollars in add-ons on an EX-L. This vehicle was priced at 45k. It took a while but I eventually found a Trailsport that was sold to me at 1500.00 below MSRP. Imagine if I had gone along with the sales guy who tried to sell me an EX-L for 45k. Be careful out there folks because a LOT of people are getting taken advantage of in this chip shortage climate.
I got a 2021 version of this trim I love it but with gas prices going up this is not as fuel-efficient as I would have liked would have certainly gone a different route possibly a cr-v hybrid had I know the gas price hikes
