How did you find out it was in the rail yard?
You must have misunderstood something I wrote. Mine shouldn’t go by rail. I’m within the 500 mile truck zone. I was talking in that quote to someone who will be railed, maybe that’s where the confusion is.

I have a painted top on order. From all I have heard you may be able to order after May 7th. I'm just guessing because that's when they are supposed to be building them. It's possible they open up orders then.

Thank you, Mike! They accepted your order on the 10th?

They did. There was a small window around 4/2 and again when I ordered. I just kept hounding my dealer to keep trying.

I was able to successfully order the 3-piece body color (SG) hard top for my Rubicon on 4/12.

My last event location on the spreadsheet is Nitro. Does anyone have any idea where or what Nitro is?
I think Nirto is a rail yard, but I’m not sure where. It’s on this forum somewhere because I read it. You might search Nitro and see what comes up.

Hello everyone
I ordered mine on 04/04
Yesterday I was chatting with the guy on the Jeep website about my order status they say it's ready to build but they have an issue with the soft top Supply material and it's going to delay at least 3 weeks for The Who ordered soft top.
Is anybody else hearded about that?

I’ve also thought about getting the hinges sprayed with bedliner. Black hinges with black top and fenders might look ok.
Just getting back to the door ding issue. I've never plasti-dipped anything but I like the Black Hinges on the Sting Gray. Would Plasti-dip be of any value to protect against rock dings on the hinges?

Standard Soft Top or Premium Soft Top?

Not sure if it’s tough enough. Guess you could try it and if it didn’t work use bedliner.

It's a parking lot in Toledo. That's where mine sat for 6 days before it was loaded on a truck.

I went with the premium soft top as well and I ordered on 4/3 and when I checked with serigo 2 days ago he said nothing about it and I am scheduled to be built late next week. I feel like I cant trust jeep chat.
