A leak revealed Jeep’s Xtreme Recon Package and the company just “officially” at the Chicago Auto Show. Probably the most extreme off-road package ever for a Jeep, the package will set you back $3,995.

To recap, the Xtreme Recon Package turns the Wrangler into even more of an off-road beast. It includes:

LT315/70R17C (35-inch) BF Goodrich KO2 all-terrain tires17-inch by 8-inch beadlock wheelsSwing gate reinforcement4.56:1 axle ratio1.5-inch factory suspension lift with uniquely tuned shocks

The result of all of this is what Jeep is saying are best-in-class approach and departure angles (47.4 and 40.4 respectively) and best in class ground clearance and water fording capability. This package is only available on Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited with the 3.6-liter V6 and eTorque and Wrangler 392. That means, looking at Jeep’s current pricing, a fully loaded Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited with this package should be over $60,000 with the Wrangler 392 cresting $80,000.

How does this pricing compare to the next closest extreme off-road SUV, the Bronco with the Sasquatch package? Well, the Sasquatch package is more widely available for one. Ford doesn’t just limit the package to the upper trims of the Bronco. You can get it on every single trim level. Is it cheaper? That depends. The price weirdly varies depending on trim. On the Base and Big Bend, the package is $1,000 more than the Jeep at $4,995; On Black Diamond, it’s $4,495; Outer Banks it’s $4,200; Badlands it’s just $2,495. The Wildtrack and First Edition trims get the package standard. Any way you go about it though, the Wrangler with the Xtreme Recon Package and a Bronco with the Sasquatch Package are the top of the pile when it comes to off-road supremacy. It should be interesting to see how this fight plays out.

For $1,000, Dust Off Those Sheryl Crow CDs
In Web parlance using all-caps equates to yelling. The ad for today's Celica GT ragtop is caps locked and loaded, but is its price anything to shout about? It's the height of summer here in the northern hemisphere, and for those hot days and warm nights nothing is better than...

Subaru XV Crosstrek: The Jalopnik Review
Subaru says the buyer of its all-new XV Crosstrek will be relatively young, maybe have a few small children, enjoy hiking, biking, racing triathlons and partake in a multitude of outdoor adventures. A buyer fitting this demographic will be looking for a practical car that presents a cool, hip appearance...

For $22,000, Would You Remain Dino Denied?
Dino was the birth name of Ratpacker Dean Martin, who was famous for both his baritone and his boozing. The 3-litre V8 in today's Dino 308 GT4 probably also makes beautiful music, but will the car's price drive you to drinking? A running, registered car for only a grand? Why...

For $20,000, Would This R32 Give You Wood?
Custom paint on a car is nothing new, and custom under-hood colors are more common today than ever. It is strange however that the customizer of today's VW R32 decided to go with a mountain cabin motif for its engine bay. Does its price however, warrant getting your pines in...

For $9,500, Ride In The LimouSven!
If you're Swedish and are planning to attend next year's prøm, then you'll definitely want to roll in today's stretched S90. That is of course if you can afford both its price and the cost of a chaufför. Desirable as it was, yesterday's went down in a not unexpected 75%...

Bentley Continental GT V8: The Jalopnik Review
Bentley Continental GT V8: The Jalopnik Review
Bentley's seen eights come and go; the 8-litre coach of 1930, the cloth-seated Eight "training Bentley" of the 1980s, the Le Mans-winning Speed 8 prototype of 2003. Two of those even had V8 engines, like the new Continental GT V8. Can the more-fuel-efficient octomill match the mighty W12? Let's find...
