Yeah, for a grand! Also seems like they manage to *still* have carpet present for some reason just like Ford does.

Kinda feel like this should have been standard on all jeeps…

Charge more for something that costs less. I mean it's one way of doing business.

Actually,
Seats: $995
Flooring: $1695
Fine print: not available on 4xe, 392 or any 2-doors

The apples to apples value in the BL over the Rubicon just got significantly greater

But, but its branded as "Heavy-Duty"

Based on the photos in the story, that flooring is the aftermarket Armorlite brand (I just helped my brother install this in his Jeep a couple weeks ago). It's a nice improvement over crummy carpet or nothing at all, but it's not remotely as good as what's in my Badlands. There are visible seams and water intrusion points. I guess this is okay as a factory installed or dealer installed option, but this is by no means as rugged as the Ford option. No comment on the seats but they look nice.

Don't forget: "They also feature Light Tungsten stitching and an adorable Wrangler grille embroidered on the seatbacks."

So the Bronco making Jeep better through competition. Awesome.

"... the design incorporates water removal via integrated floor drains. Available in black."

I'm impressed that the floor drains are "integrated." As opposed to...what..."dis-integrated?"

"Available in black." Like Henry Ford said of the Model T, "You can have it in any color you want, so long as it's black." Me? I'm waiting for the Martha Stewart Color Line on this option.

Seriously: I am not suffering from Buyer's Remorse with my Badlands!

I guess they want in on what they think is a hot option. Does jeep know that MGV is standard on hottest trim? I bet if you could select cloth/MGV/Leather we all would take plant based leather.

I think I still go MGV over a leather option now if they could have just sealed the damn rear seat backs somehow I would have zero complaints.

I keep forgetting about the crap seat backs, I have had Mabett rubber covers since they came out. Don't know why they didn't at least make them in hard plastic.

I need to get some of the covers. I would have been happy with some zipper secured vinyl like what you see on rooftop tent covers.

Many people are saying that “Marine Grade” is better than “Heavy Duty”.

Fact.

Way back before the 'aughts when I bought my 'vette it was an $895 upcharge for the MANUAL . . . and they were in short supply!
