We've had several Wranglers as well.
As these vehicles keep substantially increasing in price, consumers should be more discerning. Our '20 GC High Altitude had an MSRP of $55,700 and we purchased it brand new for $46k and change. This '23 purchased almost exactly 2 years to the day later has a MSRP of $69,9xx & we paid $64k for it.
So far for my extra $18k, I've received a vehicle missing optional equipment that was paid for, 3 wheels scratched or chipped upon delivery that Jeep will not repair, a messed up steering wheel (being replaced), more tech features that don't seem to function properly and/or have a lot of "bugs", a rear hatch that slams shut (just waiting for the back glass to shatter), & I've had to jump through hoops for over 2 months now trying to get these items resolved. So if I point out that yeah, the emblems in this package are easily snagged and/or broken due to poor design that someone in the design dept probably thought looked cool in his/her CAD program but that have inherent flaws in the real world, it is just a data point.
Out of the 37-38 vehicles we've owned to-date, 7 have been Jeeps (also had a '22 Wrangler on order but passed on it), 5 others have been Dodge/Chrysler vehicles. The only reason my wife went with this '23 is because she loved her '20 GC so much. This is not the most expensive vehicle we own by far, but at these prices and issues, maybe my wife's next vehicle is something other than Jeep.
