I'm with you on getting the build you want. But the TRM system is such a minor addition and so easily added later, that to wait an extra month or two just to have it out of the gate was too much for me. Color, wheels, interior, engine, these are all things you want to commit to and be willing to wait for. A nebulous $150 rail system that doesn't even really have any after market support and is easily bolted into your Jeep later? Kind of silly to hold out for.
Just an FYI: just like the all-weather floor mats, if you order them with your Jeep you will not receive the carpet mats. If you order the all-weather mats separately you receive both the carpet and rubber mats for the same cost. If you order the trail rail management system you will not receive the stock tie-downs. If you order the TRM system separately you will receive both for the same price. I would rather have both versions so I will pick up the TRM system later.

So since no more JK are being made does that mean they will be pumping more JLs then they have been? or have they already been at full capacity?
No, there is a crossover time period where the line needs retooled. Some of the workers will move over to the other building but unfortunately FCA has announced a temporary layoff for many of the employees on the JK line.

Jeep chat told me yesterday the delivery estimate is 5/15-5/19. Dealer sent me this just now
I called that new Jeep support number who said my jeep is in KZ (it has been since 4/24), but it has not been given a ship date and it has not gotten on the train yet. They said to call back next week, and if it hasn't left then they will expedite it. I was hoping it left the station already. :(

Just keep reminding yourself that your Jeep exists and it’s on its way. It’s not just numbers on paper anymore. It’s real and it’s coming.:)
