I have your test drove the trim you ordered? I blindly ordered my 392 but had a idea of handling with my (now my dads) 2018 JL Sahara

I test drove a 2020, which was enough to convince me that automatic transmissions still hated my guts. I ordered my 2021 without ever having a chance to test drive the manual or being in a 21. It did help me validate number of doors I wanted.

It was probably better that way. Dealers don't know how to deal with manual transmissions anymore and the accelerator calibration isn't part of their procedures, so people likely stall a lot in the manuals during test drives and decide they don't want one. :crying:

As to interior design and features, not many changes over the 2020, but I was happy the leather seats were changed to include red piping.

I test drove a 2019 Sahara when I was previously looking for a new car & have driven my mom's '91 YJ (which she still has), but there wasn't one wrangler on the lot for me to even test drive. So I kinda ordered blindly too I guess. 🤷🏼‍♀️

In retrospect I wish I would've ordered a manuel trans, but oh well. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I'm glad to see these early to mid September orders getting shipped. I ordered on 9/13 so maybe mine is somewhere in the pipe line although JC and my dealer won't say beyond "scheduling."
same here (ordered 9-11)

I test drove an automatic, but ordered a manual transmission because it has been a dream to have one. I hope I like it! no place had any manuals to test.

The manual is :involve: and people claim it gets better at 5k, 10k, etc. For the first 500mi anyway, treat it nicely. I had a week off road that went well enough at 500mi, but breaking in to 1000mi first would have made it better.

Got my window sticker today on crypto! Quick question, does my name supposed to be at the top of it? Or is that only on the car when it’s delivered?
