I'm thinking about doing a trade in on my current 2015 JKU Rubicon Hard Rock on a Rubicon JLU. I've owned several vehicles and 3 Jeeps but I've never actually custom ordered one before, its always been either used or my last 2 were pre-built on the lot. I was looking for some opinions on a couple package options and some advice doing the trade-in itself so I can try and get the most value I can possible.
There's a few packages I know I want for sure but a couple I'm on the fence for and looking for opinions.
Premium Soft Cloth or Leather Group - Do you prefer leather or cloth? My current Jeep has Leather but I think this might require a dedicated thread.
Safety Group (AJ1) - If I don't include this, does it still come with a rear backup camera?
Remote Proximity Keyless Entry - Think its worth the extra 500$?
For the trade-in, how do I know if I'm getting a good value on the trade? I got an appraisal already but I don't know if they did it on a base Rubicon or if they would have appraised with all the trim included (Steel bumper, leather, hood, etc). I have aftermarket JW Speaker LED headlights and fogs but I doubt that would make any difference. I tried to find a similar model for sale used but nothing listed in my area at all.
Any other tips would be greatly appreciated from someone who has recently traded up! Thanks everyone.
