Default 2010 models and colors

Just got back from the dealer looking for options on an '10

The X is out.
Replaced with the SPORT

and Natural Green Pearlcoat wasn't on the list for colors.

What's up with that. The first Jeep was green, and now you don't offer any type of green, it's almost un-American.

So what will be the difference between the X and Sport? Just the sticker ?

Probably. They used Sport in the later 90's on the base 6cyl/4 liters.

I have an X and i think its a stupid model designation myself.......

i actually prefer the name "sport." the term "X" sounds degrading and the vehicle is not deserving of that name. just because it doesn't have all the bells & whistles shouldn't require it to be called "Jeep X."

According to allpar:

tow hooks, fog lamps, full-length center console, front floor mats, and premium cloth trim are now standard on all models. Front seatback map pockets are included with the standard cloth seats.
So there are some upgrades to the Sport model as well.

Originally, in the TJ's, the "X" was the introductory no frills model. & I do mean NO frills. The ones we got @ the dealership here in Scottsdale were 4 cyl, 5 speed, Dana 30 rear end, with no AC, carpet, or even a radio. So they were bare bones. Next level up was the Sport, then Sahara, & the almighty Rubicon. The Sport Came w/ AC, carpet, Stereo, 4.0L I6, could get manual or auto. Also came with Dana 30, but could opt for the 44. So, the X & Sport were 2 different models originally, but don't know what that means these days. Don't know if the sticker will be the only thing changing, or hopefully we'll get a couple more options than the current X. Guess we'll see.

AC was an option on the TJ Sport. You had to go to the Sahara or Rubicon to get it included.

Actually, the original X came with a 4.0L and Dana 35 rear end. The SE was a 4 cylinder.

You are correct. The SE was the bottom of the line. I thought the X was the upgrade to the sport also.

Rubicon John is correct. I completely forgot about the SE designation, even though that's the model I was describing. The X was between the SE and the Sport. Sorry for the misinformation.
