Demco and Roadmaster have base plates, but I've read some comments where there might be a problem with the adaptive cruise control working with a Roadmaster baseplate.

I spoke with Blue Ox. By 1/31/14 they will officially have the following available:

Baseplate: Latitude & Limited - BX1135. Trailhawk - BX1136
Both will work with Adaptive Cruise Control.

Tail Light Wiring Kit: All models - BX8848 (available now). This is a diode kit as they found there wasn't enough space in the tail light assembly to install a separate bulb kit.

Thank you. Not interested in the adaptive cruise, I like to be on top of my driving. ;)

Adaptive cruise control is phenomenal. Never leave home without it.

Any base plates for the trail hawk yet?

What do you think of the jeep so far, thinking of the latitude.

I have the Limited with every option possible, I love it, we now have 4400 miles on it including a day trip yesterday of about 300 miles where I got 22-23 with my V6

We went with a loaded Trailhawk. Heated seats and heated steering wheel makes for a happy wife. It's her commuter. No snow yet to test the 4wd. The vehicle drives great. A little different with 9spd transmission. Not bad, just different. Bluetooth works great. Wife likes to stream Pandora. Have not tried the CD player. It comes with one year free satellite radio. All of our music is loaded on nano USB memory.

Steering wheel controls are better than Ford, not as intuitive as my Civic. The adaptive cruise control works really good. Hard to comment on storage. We moved from a minivan to the Cherokee. Key fob remote start has terrific range.

Not planning on towing our 2014 Cherokee. Have you downloaded the Uconnect app for remote start by cell phone? Works great with our Samsung Galaxy phones.
