I think styling is subjective. Maybe you saying it's as stylish as an Isetta is a compliment?
After all, some people like them.
Personally, I think the styling is a wash between the Bronco and the Wrangler.
Jeep gives Wrangler 1.5" lift, 35" tires and 4.88 gears..

Huh, that's really interesting, and I wonder if that is the highest GVWR of any JLU.

I think the competition the Bronco brought is a good thing....
Jeep Gives the Wrangler 35-Inch Tires and 4.88 Gears to One-Up the Ford Bronco Sasquatch
Bigger tires and an extreme low-range crawl ratio boost the Wrangler Rubicon's capabilities, and continue the Jeep vs. Ford slap-fight.www.roadandtrack.com
Ford announced the return of the full-size Bronco? When did that happen?
Jeep could have done this at any time instead of juicing up all that chip-heavy technology in the infotainment system. I've used that system, it's really cool and fun, but I think the bigger tires and granny gear are gonna be more fun

All that and I'd still hit my head on the soundbar of the JLU.

How tall are you? I'm 6'2" and my head isn't anywhere near the soundbar in the Gladiator (which I assume is the same in the JL).
I have the leather seats, I wonder if the position is any different to the regular ones...

I'm 6'5", Dan, normal height.
But it's not the height alone, per se. It's the ratios. My legs are a bit longer in proportion to my torso. So it comes down to how far back I have to place the seat to fit my legs while still being able to reach the steering wheel.
Believe me I tried. When my JK died in May of 2020 the dealer had a JT Overland with a manual trans on the lot. They have historically terrible luck moving the manual trans vehicles and were very happy to drop their drawers for me. I tried to fit. Tried hard. I really wanted that little truck. But I fit in a ram so much better. Plus it has a HEMI --- and I tow a trailer...
