The 2018 Jeep Wrangler JKs have just appeared in the build and price section of Jeep.ca and one of the options for the Unlimited Sport is the "Cold weather Group"
Here's what it includes:

PRICE
$1,000
INCLUDED FEATURES (5):
Front heated seats
Heavy-duty suspension with gas shocks
LT265/70R17C KO2 All-Terrain tires
BFGoodrich® brand tires
Mopar® slush mats

Its the first time I see a JK with KO2's from the factory as well as "Heavy Duty suspension and gas shocks". Does anyone know if that just means Rubicon Springs and shocks?
Just curious about this as I'm getting ready to trade in my Tacoma for a 2018 JK.

To me, that package would be all about the tires. Planning to keep it stock? Are those the tires you want and plan to keep that size? A lot of people will read that and see $1k butt warmers. If you have any plans to lift it or increase tire size then none of that really matters; however, if you're going to leave it stock and like those tires, probably worth $1k for the upgrades. I wouldn't put a lot of stock in to "heavy duty suspension with gas shocks".

I would note that you can easily add aftermarket butt warmers to both sides for ~$160...and the after market pads are a bit larger (warming a larger area) and get warmer than the factory ones.

Don't forget that those five tires should easily sell for $500-600. If you had basic street tires, good luck selling them for much.
