I see FCA took a page out of Ford's book with the interior materials. The Explorer's interior is full of cheap, hard plastic. The Summit is more akin to the Lincoln Aviator. Not a good look for the Overland regardless.

Wait til they add a battery and the upcoming hybrid tf 8 tranny, power on demand right now..with v6 economy and a some more.
That's the problem...always waiting...

But the gov't will not give you that choice. They are taking the choices away from you.

Of course, FCA would have loved to put the Hemi into the Gladiator and every trim of Durango because it would sell more....but then they would have to pay Tesla more credits.

The hand of gov't erases choice.....it does not provide it.
Meh FCA had plenty of options. Ford figured out a way to provide high output powertrains via turbos and hybrid power. The gov't in this case incentivized manufacturers to pivot and FCA chose to resist for as long as possible.
