This cannot be Base as there is Privacy Glass on the Passenger Row, this is Big Bend. Base does not get Privacy Glass for the 2nd Row.
What exactly is privacy glass? The tint?

Could be an error of the render but it’s definitely a base as it doesn’t have the passenger grab handle, heated seats, fog lights, or leather steering wheel
Good bet itā€˜s the correct seats given the source but it is surprising they are doing two-tone in the Base. They are incentivizing moving up from Base in myriad ways - that interior seems too good looking for Base. I’ll be very happy if that is it.

FYI BB doesn’t get heated seats standard, you have to buy the mid pkg (or maybe it will be stand alone option).

Question....
Do the BB/BD variants have different suspension heights or gearing due to the larger tires? One of the posted spreadsheets mentions 3.73 open, 4.46, and 4.70 locker being avail on the base. I'll guess the 4.7 is the Squatch option.
30" to 32" is a 6.7% increase, but 3.73 to 4.46 is a 19.6% increase.
The BB, BD, and OB show a 4.27 locker avail, a 14.5% increase. I have no idea what will be standard.
The 3.73 is standard for the auto. 4.46 is standard for the manual.
4.7 is for 35's with the auto or 33's with the manual.
4.27 is for 32 or 33's with the auto.

I am sure the aftermarket will add a bunch of other choices. And better choices too so you can run so really big tires like 38's

I'll just go with tint although I don't like tinting the defrost glass(Not sure it will hold up???). Once a 2 door soft top is available the hard top will only be on 3 months out of the year anyway.

Looking at the chart for auto transmission with no squatch, BB and OB come with 32" tires with a 3.73 or a 4.27 (i'm guessing the 4.27 is with the optional rear locker). The BD also comes with a 32" tire and comes with a 4.46. It seems odd to have 3 different ratios with the same diameter tires.

In a perfect world I would have liked to see at least the 4.27 optional on the base, I wouldn't even care if it had a locker with it or not. We'll see when they hit the streets and people start upgrading tires how the 3.73s hold up.

Ideally they will offer a 4.27 with a locker on the Base, that or the 4.46 locker on the BD would be ideal. The existing literature does not support the idea of a locker or optional ratios on the base, but we can hope...until the B & P comes out

Is anyone else thinking of getting a Base and adding a trailer receiver (since tow package isn't an option)? I wonder if the Base will still come from the factory with wiring connectors for towing, or if that will have to be added too.

I think everyone tints their back window. I have never had or heard of specific problems like that, maybe more so if you don’t get a quality tint/installer

I don't know where I saved this from but I believe it's the Base interior, Right material, screen size, number of mode buttons, but it does have body color mirror caps so who knows

If this is the Base interior I think it looks pretty nice.
