Lets See Your BackCountry Trim Trucks!!

When my Patriot Blue comes in I'll post here. Ordered the first week of April so it will be a couple of months.

Did your BC come with remote-proximity keyless entry? Just realizing it's not listed in the package features or Level 2 group anymore, but its listed on the Rebel Level 2.

 

[Sanders]

Nope. I didn’t really know or care about it before. But now having the push button start I do think that it would be nice to have. Kind of annoying to dig the key fob out of your pocket just to lock and unlock your truck. If I had to pick option though I would go for the led headlights over the halogen.

no it did not

EDIT: Misspoke.

I ended up ordering the LED headlights. I wish the prox was available too, but at least it can be added less expansively than the LED's

 

[deeve]

That's odd, remote-keyless entry is listed as standard equipment on my window sticker. It'll be interesting to see what I have or don't have when it arrives.

Remote is through the key fob. Proximity is when you just need to touch the door handle.

Ah, damn. Fair enough. Looks like mine won't have it either then.

So can you open the door with the key in your pocket without hitting unlock? Or is that what it doesn't come with? My wife's Grand Cherokee has it and it was included.

If you get a leveling kit does it mess up your trade in?

 

[jlrozzi]

Ill tell you what is annoying. When you leave your truck running and get out of the truck and it honks 3 times loudly. The needs a disable option ASAP.

Not on the BC, at least not now. You can add it after with a bit of work

Does the Backcountry come with a 1" lift like the Rebel and offroad package? It isn't in the specs and I can't find it anywhere.

Yes. Different shocks than the Rebel. The Off Road package is part of the the BC package. If you look toward the bottom of the BC package listing it says "raised ride height".

I'll be attempting this. My rebel and laramie both had it, as well as the 2 grand cherokees I've had in the past. I'm addicted, especially now that I have a baby seat/carrier in hand non-stop.

Same here. I really appreciate having that feature. When I build my BC I set it up so that I can add additional features later.

What else do you have planned?

Yes. Here is my 2017 Laramie 4X4 parked next to a Back Country. I’m guessing 2” for sure. No doubt sits higher than other 5th Gens as well.

Probabably adaptive cruise control, auto high beam and rain sense wipers. Maybe on all of that. The stuff I ordered kind of makes adding those easier. About the only must have is the prox entry.

I'm watching Tyler Potter's YouTube video on prox entry right now, and having second thoughts lol

Haha!! Yes, it will take a certain amount of bravery.
