Hey I was wondering what are the differences in the two models. Are they the same other than their looks?

The Trailhawk has the SRT style seats (more side bolster), red towhooks, badges, different trim / stitching, and can be optioned with Rock Rails from the factory.
The Overland has slightly different wheels (with the ORA package), the standard seats, a wood trimmed steering wheel, and available 18 speaker HK audio system upgrade.
Personally, I like the rugged look of the Trailhawk better, and the seats a LOT better. It's too bad you can't get the HK audio, but the Alpine system isn't bad. I also think you want the rock rails if you want to do any real off-roading.

The Trailhawk seats are great. Personally, I like them much better than the standard ones. They hold you in place, which is what you want for off-roading (or cornering). Also, the ventilation and heating elements work quite well.

I honestly don't believe there's a "quality" difference, unless you are referring to "qualities" about the seats. The seats in the Trailhawk are more like the SRT seats and the seats in the Overland are different than that. They may feel different. Some folks say that the TrailHawk seats are more supportive in some ways, for example. Sit in both and see what feels better to you.

I dug up this old post I had seen before regarding seat foam cushion. My Trailhawk has #4 foam.

Just be sure to get the Quadra-Drive option if you go with the Overland. Otherwise you don't get the rear ELSD which is worth every penny!!!!
I purchased the overland because I wanted the better sound system, smooth steering wheel and 20" wheels.

Overland is going to give a few more luxury items, Leather wrapped dash, door top trim, chrome exterior accents, wood top section of steering wheel. I chose to go with the Trailhawk. I like the sinister look of the blacked head lamps, and gun metal gray & black accents over the chrome. And I do love the Trailhawk seats, much prefer over the Overland seats... Extremely comfortable, and gives you that sports car wrap around seat fit. Both offer the leather perforation option. Go with that. Wife has the '12 Overland, and really love it too, but wanted something different. I really like the muscle look of the TH with the 18" wheels and Goodyear KEVLAR tires... TH also has a different air bag system for more travel and lift. Only the Overland will offer 20" wheels and the Harmon Kardon sound system. But the Nav base system in the TH is pretty darn good.
I orignally wanted an Overland, but could not find the options I wanted. Started looking at the TH and feel in love. The Trailhawk gives you all you could want in a factory off road rig, with a great comfortable and quiet ride to boot.
Both are nice. Get what you like.

Yea at first I didn't like the TH but looking around and finding out that the seats come in full leather I do like the TH more. My dealer was confused though because they don't know how the seats came in full leather with no suede. Personally not a fan on suede for a vehicle like this.
With Lux they are full leather, and having just checked one out in person, they are nice! Very premium feeling.
The Overland has Dual Exhausts for both the V6 & the V8
Agree! Seems like it is nothing more than a super fine micro-fiber cloth... It is not leather and seems very cheap to me. Have an extremely hard time with it in the high end models like the SRT & possibly the Trackhawk. If that is all the Trailhawk had offered, as it did originally, I would not have one. Hate the stuff. Sorry to those that have and like it, but it is not for me.:slapfight:

Not always. Early 2017 TH's with Lux have the suede inserts. I have one.
