I've gotta tell ya, it has been annoyingly frustrating trying to obtain answers to two simple questions. 1) Does the 75th Anniversary Renegade come with the 1.4 and the 6-speed stick? 2) About how long from order to delivery, if above is available?

I've called several dealerships with no luck. They said they would inquire and get back to me. No response in 2 weeks. Called Jeep, got a pleasant woman in Ireland, who could not answer either question. She too promised to inquire and call me with the requested info. No response either.

What's the problem with getting a few questions answered? Very frustrating. And speaks volumes about the organizational reliability of their company.

Still trying to discover what is being offered on this. I was looking for a Latitude with the 1.4, 4x4, with stick shift, Cold Weather package, and Beats Radio. But no one seems to know if this is available. Any ideas who might know?

Where are you located? I'm in Chicago, and bought (almost) that exact Latitude, and the dealer had a couple others in stock.

So I went in to order and they told me the 75th anniv has the MySKy roof, but the automatic (1st panel) roof is not available on the 75th anniv edition...that is a bummer.

 

[CavemanRadio]

Yes, the 75th anniv is avail in 4x4 with 1.4L and manual transmission.

I don't get it. We are celebrating 75 years, so they make the special edition based on the Latitude instead of the TrailHawk? The first Jeep was an off-road vehicle... I don't get it.

Maybe becuase the 1st Jeep had a manual transmission?

Have you tried going to Jeep's website to send them a message through Jeep Cares? I have always had a pretty good response from Jeep when using that form.

Also
Yes, love the anniversary edition but really only because of the option of the green color and the interior looks nice. It is too bad it isn't a Trailhawk so if I had to choose I would still pick the one I have.

I realize I'm exceptionally late to the conversation, but just wanted to give my $.02 on the Renegade 75th Anniversary Special Edition.

1. We got the 6-speed manual in orange. I'm sort of orange-obsessed, so when I saw that there was a manual transmission in orange, I was sold.

2. Compared to the non 75th anniversary edition, the 75th has the following:

• Black cloth seats - We have a baby, so these were key. The other seats seem to beg for stains.
• Leather steering wheel - Has a nice feel to it, though not a big deal.
• Low-gloss bronze 18" wheels - They look nice.
• Tangerine accent stitching - Another thing I liked...the details on the inside match the color on the outside. It's the little things.

We could all just save a few bucks, and add the door emblems to any model we already own,

JEEP 1941 75 YEAR ANNIVERSARY WILLYS EMBLEM NAMEPLATE

 

[Stik Man]

I will admit to loving the bronze color for the 75th editions. (and that I already own one 75th emblem).

 

[raz-0]

Yeah, those are so cool looking wheels.

Saw one in person over the weekend. The wheels are very nice. So far the only ones I've seen that I really liked. The other OEM options are decent but these are really appealing.

 

[Jeepetto]

Agree the 18" in Bronze are nice looking but I guess finding a decent A/T tire for that rim that will fit is an issue. IF this rim style was in a 16" I would have already gave jeep my credit card. Although stock Latitude Wheels are growing on me. Will probably look better with some real meats.

I just got a 75th anniversary edition in Mojave Desert on Saturday. Its a beauty!

The wife's new ride 'Kermit', jungle green 75th.

Love the ride, we traded in her escape for it! If I weren't such Wrangler die hard I'd drive one. Maybe when I can't lift myself into my 15 Tank JKR with a 2.5" lift I grab one of these...very impressed so far!

Definitely can see it's a special edition, congrats on the cool ride!

This isn't true - I just purchased an Anny Edition and it has the power MySky. I would double check with your dealer

Yeah ours came with the power mysky front panel right off the dealer lot. I figured it was standard equipment on the anniversary edition since the 4 they had on my dealers lot all had it.

Thinking of getting a Renegade (I'm in the UK) and was looking at Limited or (if budget would allow) Trailhawk. Now I've looked in more detail I see the 75th and its heavily discounted at the moment. One issue is that they're all pre-built in the UK now so I couldn't add any options - would have liked the HID lights etc. and package which includes the folding mirrors. And maybe BEATS audio (although not so sure about that now having read a few negative reviews on here!) but I do love the bronze accents and the wheels are the nicest I've seen on the Renegade.

MySky roof - not 100% sure about but I guess it's quite cool. Would lose out on leather compared to Limited/Trailhawk but the fabric seats are still heated I see. As is the steering wheel. Seems to be a mish-mash of parts as it also has the better TFT screen and larger sat nav?

Limited colours on the 75th in the UK compared to the USA and they're all 2.0 diesels with manual or auto. Would probably go for granite crystal or if feeling brave enough, the jungle green.

Cost in UK is usually £27,495 for manual but could get a new one for £21,000 on a discounted price.

Thoughts please compared to Limited and Trailhawk...
