The uconnect screen is 7 inch in the laredo, and 8.4 inch in the limited and overland.
The overland has air suspension and elsd (quadra-drive 2) standard, the limited and laredo can option these.
Quadra-trac 2 is standard on the laredo and limited, that is open front and rear diffs, but it does brake force distribution so if you give it enough accelerator the computer will grab the spinning wheel and send torque to the wheel with grip. It works, just not as well as the Quadra-drive 2 system (elsd).
If you want elsd (quarda-drive 2) then you have to get air suspension.
Popular bars are ARB, uneek, TJM and ECB. Ironman also does one, but I believe it doesn't fit on vehicles with air suspension.

A slight digression....am I dreaming or did I once read that the separately opening tailgate window was deleted at some point in recent years? My 2013 has it but it's a shame if this handy feature has gone, can only think the cost saving went towards funding some other feature in later models.

Don't think I ever used the flip glass on my WJ much at all. LOL....everytime I wanted to, the f***ing gas struts were rooted anyway.

well a 2017/2018 grand cherokee Laredo diesel 4wd with 8.4 uconnect and the off road package definitely isnt happening !!!! in any colour
I cant get one and would have to have one factory orders (so they tell me) and that could take five months
so I just bought a demo velvet red trailhawk with 1800 on the clock with reece/hd tow bar weather shields bonnet protector and headlamp protectors for basically the same price as the optioned laredo , well put a deposit subject to the finalisation of the other cars situation

soooo
guess who owns a jeep
grand cherokee trailhawk !
finally picked it up thursday nite
and not with out its own dramas
been trying to get it since last friday and apparently they couldn't get it ready in time
all they had to do was fit weather shields , head lamp and bonnet protectors and a heavy duty tow hitch a full detail and fuel it and they wanted a week to do this
so I get a call at 2pm …. its ready when can you come
at 330 I call and say im on my way ill be there in an hour
upon arriving they tell me the tow hitch is still on back order and they don't know when and I say well that's good but why hasn't the bonnet protector been fitted then ! and so its whipped back in to their workshop
so when it did finally come out and he is running me thru the ins and outs im finding rubbish in the car and commented on how poor the detail was
but I now have it and am fidgeting with all the gadgets setting it up
