Default Chrysler wants your help ?

Chrysler is now looking at future Wrangler or other Jeep brand options, and would like to know what you want and what you expect to pay for it ? This is a new CAB topic , I will come back and summarise your posts, and get them to Chrysler llc . CABs

J8 for the masses! It doesn't have to be fully built up, just a base model people can build up themselves if they want, about the price of a base model X, 4wheel drive.

I love my Jeep just as it is but, I would like to see (and might upgrade if they added):
1. More powerful engine options:
a. Hemi engine - $5k upgrade
b. Diesel engine - $1500-2500 upgrade
2. Side airbags and side impact improvements for rear seats on 4 door - $500 upgrade
3. More supportive seat options that include lumbar support - $300 upgrade

I am trying to think of other ideas, but as I said, I love my Jeep and wouldn't change much. The improved engine options would likely get me to upgrade.

NOTE: your posts are no good to Chrysler , if you fail to post the expected cost

I would want a diesel and would pay about $2,500-$3,000 for the upgrade. That is the only change I would want.

incorporated hatch strut from the factory... really sucks putting things in the back when i have to lift the heavy item with both hands.

Don't really think it needs to be an option... however, I'd pay 50-75 dollar extra for this "option" if it was available or added at the dealership.
