Debating between MY25 and MY26

[Smoochii]

Hi all,

I apparently created an account here, probably years ago when I was interested in getting an ST before I leased my Grand Cherokee. My lease is up soon and I want an ST again and I started looking at what's available and the deals around and was hoping to get some advice. I was originally going to just order a 26 (or find similar in stock) but they don't really seem to have any incentives right now (I'll most likely be leasing) so I started looking at 25s because they have tons of incentives it seems.

So far on the 25 what I've found is $3500 in bonus cash plus another $2000 for conquest because I'm currently leasing a Jeep. Plus it seems the prices on the 25 are just generally lower. I also get Xplan discount through work.

I guess my main question is is it worth waiting for a '26 or should I just pull the trigger on a 25 given the good deals right now? I know both models have a lot of deleted options, second row sunshades really sucks because I have 2 younger kids. I also like the idea of the solid glass roof in the 26, I'm definitely getting the sun and sound package.

If anyone has any advice or maybe questions I would really appreciate it.

Thanks!

Seems like the 25's are $2000-3000 cheaper than a 26. Since you are leasing, I'd probably go for the cheaper of the two. I got a 26 a month ago... they had $1750 in rebates and the dealer gave me an Xplan PIN just because I know one of their sales staff that used to work there.
