    My vote is 10 cup holders. Where else would you put all your tire shine and hair care products.

    I have the crawl control that I'll never use, despite its apparent effectiveness.
    I wish it were an option cuz I'd have taken the eyeglass holder and saved the $ without question.

    Get the Offroad with a manual. You get your sunglasses holder AND a locker.

    These are two separate questions. Sunglasses holder would get used more frequently, and I wish they found space in the OR for one.

    That said, I've used my crawl control to get out of tough situations at least 4-5 times and have owned the truck for three months. At least one of those times, I could been walking out. Tires would just spin without the modulation of the ABS system or advantage of using my left foot. The other times, I would have gotten through, but much more likely to bottom out, ding my exhaust, or sustain some kind of damage.

    Depends on how you use your truck, but I've found plenty of other places to put my sunglasses.

    Ever used it in (deep) snow? If so, how does it work?

    I too use my sunglasses holder for sunglasses. In fact the pair I use to drive with is in there at this very moment. My fiancée's sunglasses go by my iPod where the QI charging pad is. That way I can always have access to my cup holders without smashing anything. I like everything clean and orderly... Except for the exterior that's covered in dirt and mud that is.

    Yet I've never needed the locker. Never had one in my Tundra either and it went plenty of places in 4hi/low with some AT tires. But I don't crawl much.

    The deepest snow I've had an opportunity to drive in was about 12-14 inches so therefore didn't really need or even try crawl. I did engage the rear locker once to back out of my brother's driveway that had fresh snow on ice.

    I am super happy with the performance of the stock Wrangler tires in snow though. Huge winter for us in Tahoe this year and the truck did great but I'm not sure if crawl would be helpful.

    What's up with the 10 cup holders anyway? My AC holds two people! I mean, I can take down 5 roadies on a long enough trip but not at the same time!

    None needed.
    If you have the Off Road- things are going great and there only getting better; your future so bright, you gotta wear shades, no need for a holder. If you have the sport, well you need the holder.:cool:

    I'd say that should be reversed... We need our sunglasses on so we don't get blinded by your chrome bumpers. :D

    Could make for a really cost effective, high MPG Uber vehicle and you'd always have a bottle of water handy... until you realize your Taco burns gas at the same rate as Uber pays... :)
