Anyone?!? Not a single person from California ordered and received their Jeep yet?

Some have had theirs delivered, yes.

Mine was ordered 02/09/2018 and is supposedly shipping now (I'll believe it when I see it). Mine went to KZ-S status on 03/18/2018 and has been sitting in Marion, Ohio since.

Jeep customer service swears it is "shipping now" but they have no update other than it is now "KZ" status only with no ETA to the dealer.

As someone that has ordered multiple cars in the past, this has been the worst ordering experience ever. I've even had two cars I've ordered originate at the same rail yard that Jeep is using, but the other brand had a MUCH better process for communicating updates and would actually give you useful information.

I ordered mine in January, still do not have it. Plenty of drama, it's built but still no date. I will surpass the famous simpleJL order as one of the longest ones.

I was getting anxious/bored and went out and bought a 2018 Colorado ZR2 to replace my 1LE Camaro. I'm still waiting on my JLU Rubicon to replace my 2015 JKU Hard Rock, but as more time passes I think the ZR2 + JKU or ZR2 + something else would be fine as well. This is in Jeep's hands now if I actually take delivery, but taking a 2018 model not long before the 2019s are available is less appealing.

Mine is at the local rail yard (60 miles away) and dealer said it will most likely be at the dealership by Monday! So it took approx. 4-5 days to get from Ohio to California. :like: A total of 37 days from order to delivery, not too shabby! :)Monday can't get here fast enough!!! :clap::rock::clap: I hope Y'all have a super smooth experience from order to delivery like I did! :fingerscrossed:
