When is allocation going to be released? I was hoping it would be today but that didn't pan out............................................................................................

It looks great with the addition of the trim done in granite. I saw one that was equipped with the diesel a week or so ago. The pics are blurry but I'll post some up.

Milous, Do you have any additional information on the "All-New Real Metal Interior Package Standard on Summit, SRT & Trackhawk". What exactly does that include?

PS- Thanks for the info! Really appreciate everything that you do!
 
#20 ·
Offering billet silver on the summit is going to look great. Also curious to see the new interior color being offered on the overland. Can't wait to see photos of the new colors and the high altitude
 
#21 ·
I'm confused:

"• New Overland Interior Color - Jeep Brown/Light Grey"

then later says

"Overland --- Leather Trim Seats w/Edge Welting/Indigo Blue/Brown"

Milous help! :)

Is the brown/blue combo different from the new brown/light grey and if so is the light grey just the headliner like in Summit with saddle/black?

No diesel = no sales in Aus.

Was thinking of trading my 15 for an 18. Based on what I see, it wouldn't make sense as there are no changes that would make it worthwhile.
 
#30 ·
Hopefully, colors that go together well... :D
 
#32 ·
I know production materials get launched in September for the MY18. Would any photos be released or leaked regarding any of the new features/colors/trims/etc before that date?

There was another video uploaded to YouTube yesterday that shows what is supposedly a 2018 Trackhawk. It's pretty damn close to the 2016 HA's and has what look like to be the same wheel options that Milous listed as the Granite Crystal 20x8 wheel option. The wheels on this "trackhawk" model are black but they have the same design as the one in that nighttime video someone posted. Took a couple screen shots and attached them here.

Personally I Ike the look of these wheels and I think they will look kuvh better with a touch of gray to them. Emailed Koons to build me one up and see what it comes out to for price.

Was about to go look at another 2017 Night Edition Ram Sport tomorrow...ohhh the decision to make;)
